I use Krita for painting, but for illustrations I tend to use Inkscape. Sometimes I'll sketch in Krita and then redraw it Inkscape. I wouldn't really use Kira for vector graphics (you can , but it's not really that ergonomic

I think you're one of the few people I've seen complain about the merged layers/objects view... Do you use Inkscape frequently & as an artist, or is it in a different capacity? Is it the principle that annoys you, or just

I usually ask them to answer the questions back to me to see if it inspires a memory, and to give me some time to think about what mine was. Edit: I say something along the lines of "Oof you put me on the spot now haha. What was one of

A big con is that the ecosystem is young still. You can generally find stuff for almost anything at this point (even enterprisey stuff like OData client generators), but they're not "established" the same way their C++ equiva

In my experience this is untrue... I've worked with C++ on and off (albeit, sometimes reluctantly, so maybe I'm projecting some misery) and a lot of errors in C++ can not be caught until it starts pasting the templates. Sometimes

Ah alright. So you do complex input (example) transformation as part of the business logic in the middle tier, and then forward it to the db? Does that mean you parse the query in the middle end too, or just parts of it (I'm not that k

We used PostgREST in a project at my previous company, and it's the most horrendous thing imaginable. The project is a meme in the company and nobody wants to work on it, including its author (who decided to switch teams becaus of how

What does this "middle end" do? Does it proxy to PostGraphile, or does it do something with the query beforehand? Or does it not proxy it at all?

I understand that sentiment, since I was similar before, but I've come to realise that it's little different from from slapping an ActiveRecord-style ORM and framework on top of it. The difference is where you encode access rules.

I assume Guardian would fact check their stuff before publishing it. So, does political/tribal alignment matter if they're telling the truth? Also like, if he said that and if the Tesla stuff is also true, he's kind of a hypo

I understand the impulse of wanting to prevent suffering, and even to some extent to prevent mistakes. However, mistakes are how children learn. You make a mistake, you learn not to do it again. That is also how you learn to cope (which i

I really hate these euphemisms for abusive care givers. It isn't "tiger mums," more often than not it's just covert/vulnerable narcissistic parents. I'm not saying it's always the case, but can we really

Trying to share your interest with a kid is not abuse. It's fine even to try multiple times, because children's interests can change throught development. That's very very different from projecting and seeing children as an e
