It's a personal blog made for fun. Both features made me smile. What's the problem? The kind of attitude you're displaying here just depresses me. Makes me lose faith in humanity.

The UX of steam is bad for occasional use, but good for regular use. Regular users pay, occasional ones don't. >Steam opens a very primitive, very non-Mac-like dialog Macos is less than 1% of the PC gaming market. The decision to po

In my experience, the pain of dealing with changes outweighs the pain of dealing with boilerplate, so it's better to explicitly write out save and load functions manually than rely on reflection. Also means you can do stuff like if(ver

I made an std::vector like wrapper[1] based on this principle, it was fun. Also focused on some of the other advantages you get, like never having to move data when you grow the array, and not invalidating pointers/iterators. Never rea

True, it's not something you would sit down and read through. Subscribing and passively consuming will filter knowledge in over time though. I keep my copy of the physical book in my bathroom :p

The old new thing[1]. It's a blog, but he did also publish a book[2] compilation of some choice blog posts. The book is from a few years ago, so some specifics might be outdated, but I think a real strength of the blog is how, despite

Given the obvious cost savings that come with reduced fuel usage, I find it hard to believe there isn't a very good reason the shipping companies don't do this already.

Yo dawg, I heard you like generating build scripts, so we put a generator in your generator so you can generate while you generate.

I'm writing this from memory, so some details may be wrong but: most high end ssds have dram caches on board, with a capacitor that maintains enough charge to flush the cache to flash in case of power failure. This operates below the s

What if I dlopen a shared object that contains a derived class, then instantiate it. You cannot statically verify that I won't. Or you could swap out a normally linked shared object for one that creates a subclass. Etc etc. This kind o

Yes, it's probably complex, but if you release everything required, then a sufficiently dedicated community will figure it out. Or maybe nobody will bother because the game was bad. Either way you lose nothing. Re: shared infra - there

I'm working on a hobby project language that generates plain C as output, and debugger integration has been one of my big worries. If that works, then this is awesome, thank you!

No, I want my politicians to declare what they want to do, and then I choose which one I agree with. I do not want them to get elected, then try to do what people want. That's backwards.

If they ditched the other stuff, maybe they could afford to run Firefox without taking money from Google. That sounds much more interesting to me than acquiring pocket, for example. Or running thunderbird. Or any of the various grab bag of

I'm aware and I hate it. I have zero interest in most of the crap the foundation gets up to, but I keep sending them money because it's the only way to "support Firefox". I want to support Firefox but I resent every cen
