Fair enough! I agree.

> Constant internet connection permitted that. On a technical level yes. But unless you are selling expensive hardware widgets it can be hard to justify constant upkeep cost of servers without a recurring revenue. That said I too lived t

Back when subscriptions started to be a thing some people (myself included) were cautiously optimistic. The problem with paid upfront and paid upgrades was that it eventually resulted in bloated programs because the only way to continue hav

Inline styles came and went and were replaced by CSS. (style attribute is still just CSS). font, color, and others are no longer in HTML5 spec. > You can also execute JavaScript on the server to make browsers more secure, but I don'

Yes and no. You can have a document without CSS but you can’t style it. You can have a document without JavaScript but only a static one (still interactive, but only though forms) On the other hand, you can replace XSLT with server side ren

In Safari at least clicking a rss link prompts you to open it in a rss reader, which I think is a superior experience. Reading a rss feed in browser is not without use, but I’d argue that that’s mostly the job of the site itself.

Naturally I meant as a developer. I don’t doubt I came past xslt rendered pages.

With browser being as complicated as they are, I kind of support this decision. That said, I never used XSLT for anything, and I don’t see how is its support in browsers tied to RSS. (Sure you could render your page from your rss feed but t

Algorithmic internet can be eventually filled with bots and AI. But when you curate your own follow list you are pretty much immune.

It works pretty well in the sense that after inputting only a few quite diverse books it gave me recommendations for a lot of books that I’ve already also read and enjoyed. I would also really like a possibility to add negative signal. It d

When I decided to get back into PC gaming during covid, I built a PC put Windows on it and installed GOG, Steam and Epic to turn it into a glorified console. It has been like that ever since. For anything other than gaming I use a Macbook.

Slovak one does not use diacritics so it’s quite hard to read.

Arf, and me who was hitting that "update later button", now I wish I had updated to the latest version before the removal from the store. That said, I'll try this when it will become necessary. Affinity tools were great. I do

Publisher was already the combined version, kind-of. I never needed that one but it has the three personas.

I thought the Wachowskis even said so explicitly. Might be mixing it with deus ex where it is right on the nose.

I do hope you can still use it without internet. Otherwise the program is much less interesting.

But Canva has bought Serif and their products some time ago. I though this was the result of the acquisition?

As the siblings said. I think we are close to Wally or Fifteen Million Credits, maybe even almost at the Oasis (as seen by IOI). But we have made little progress in direct brain stimulation of senses. We are also extremely far from robots t

When chocolate was discovered they consumed it in an extremely different fashion from what we think of good chocolate today. The dried beans were simply cooked with water. Later with milk. Chocolate as we know it only became a thing centuri

Yet they have seen Black Mirror and the likes, which also portray the future we’re heading towards. I’d argue even better because matrix is still far off. But also, it’s not the 20-somethings building this people making decisions are in the

I’ve got a German practice lock and boy was that a hard wake up call. That thing was so hard to pick that I gave up. (The keyhole is really slim) My bad though, LPL did warn about this.

They are fine, however RDP requires more bandwidth and most of the stuff I run is terminal commands anyway. Company I work for has a great browser based IDE but that’s something I would never setup and maintain for a personal project.

See the problem you encounter is that rather than simply saying “just because there was a fallacy in my argument it doesn’t make it false”, you pasted this long, barely digestible, block of text. In the other conversation “you” “explain“ wh

The idea that people would do this has never even crossed my mind. Not disputing that people do this, mind you. Technology is certainly there, but I also think that it’s very prone to taking ideas out of context.

One of my favorite functions in QtCreator is to be able to not only change color but also text attributes. In C++ for example I had it set up so function arguments passed as reference would be in italics. So you know they could be mutated.

With Python I find that distribution is too much of a pain (I don’t mind creating a virtual env for a cli tool but for a GUI forget it). I love that go links everything statically and so far I haven’t had any problems running rust tools.

IMO a healthy dose of elitism would have helped tools to remain simpler and more secure (i.e.: not need to deal with trying to parse wrong input) I get that non programmers were writing html before, but these days not even most programmers

The problem there is the order of tags not their names.
