It's a problem for commercial software for end-users that isn't from the Mac App Store. Apple continues to tighten the leash, and it's approaching strangulation.

The other person who replied to you is wrong (edit: assuming they meant in general, not for only software that you have specifically already downloaded and run on a single computer before upgrading it to Catalina.) Non-"notarized"

You can set `QT_SCALE_FACTOR=2` (or whatever) as an environment variable and the entire UI will scale. But by default, it should be trying to use your desktop scaling and DPI settings -- you might want to try changing those, first.

Thanks. Leave a message or issue on GitHub if you have any problems and I'll try to fix it. I've only used it in my own software, so there's a chance you will encounter some shortcoming or bug that I haven't.

I made a similar library earlier this year. It builds as C or C++ and is only two files (MIT license): https://github.com/randrew/layout The API is similar to Yoga. I hadn't seen Yoga before, and I'm surprise

Yes, the UI used by UE4 (Slate) is resolution independent. It can be scaled freely.

ViEmu is faster than VsVim. VsVim will cause some small amount of input lag, depending on what you're doing. ViEmu also has a more complete emulation. I prefer ViEmu, and own a license for it. Easily worth the price.

Nice article. Coincidental timing for me. I'm Singapore for a few weeks, and even though I've spent months here in the past and have a long-term visa, I have almost no local friends here. I feel like I should feel guilty about it. But I don

As a high-frequency trader, I can tell you right now that you are just completely incorrect. I'm staring at a screen right now where we take both sides on every order, not 'skimming some money' from people. It's obvious you have no idea wha

Thanks again, I had no idea that browsers performed that much analysis. It's been a while since I've read up on WebGL.

I didn't know that. Thanks. But I'm not so much worried about bounds checks as I am other obscure forms of overflow or corruption in graphics drivers. They barely work for things that are built specifically for them.

I am 100% with Carmack. Sorry, guy. JavaScript is crap. The reasons that JavaScript sucks have been hashed to death in the past. If you are already disagreeing with me, then anything I say here won't change your mind, because you've already

Matt Taibbi is awful. This article, and all of his others, are hyperbolic demagoguery. This one is particular is so bad that I can't even bring myself to tear it apart line by line. You're doing yourself an injustice by reading it. Unless y

'In Haskell, everything is a function' is absolutely wrong. People who don't know much about Haskell often say this. There's a post by Conal Elliott about this incorrect meme: http://conal.net/blog/posts/everything-is-a-function-in-hask...

I really wish Emacs had smooth scrolling, indent guides and that Minimap. Those are some killer features that you can't just implement in Emacs' scripting language. edit: minimap exists! (Obviously only in GUI Emacs) Animated sub-line scrol

To gain all of the benefits, you need the code to be written in iteratee style. You can take existing code as a starting point, but you'll often find it has to be changed quite a bit to get all of the benefits. It's usually a bit more invol

Haskell can cope well enough. We don't focus on ultra-high frequency trading so much, though we'll take any latency advantages we can get. We focus more on high-level trading strategies. GC pauses are not really an issue. Our system is tune

It depends. A C function is actually a procedure: a list of statements that have some effect on the computer, and then (maybe) shove some return value through the stack at the end. A function in languages like Clean or Haskell or Clojure or

FP is becoming the new OOP. People who don't understand its original meaning are misinterpreting it and incorrectly expounding its usefulness. Newcomers are not grasping how it fits into the bigger picture. Be cautious.

The loudness war is actually pretty much over. Lots of the newest dance music from popular artists (deadmau5, Justice, etc.) have lower RMS than mid-2000s rock, which is the genre and time when lookahead loudness maximizers were seeing the
