Trying to attribute it to just one cause is always fallacious. In truth the modern Western diet is probably the worst of it. Highly processed seed oils that are chemically extracte…

I am continuingly impressed by Serenity, even if there are times I disagree with the implementations.

What, global warming?? Naaaaaillllll!

Zig is overall pretty good as a language and it does what it needs to: staying in the lane of the purpose is very important. It is why I do not particularly care for some languages…

This is one of the problems with modern academia. It's hard to extrapolate these things

Nedit takes like 6M on a Linux machine. Older and lighter toolkits like fltk are better.

Swift means it'll require LLVM. QT is bloated and resource intensive. Most of us don't want gigabytes of data being spent on special effects.

Unfortunately, with it's use of Swift code, QT (which is now a bloated piece of trash since version 5) etc. It's just not tenable unless they give us a pure version without that sh…

HPE bought Rackable for NUMALink tech, moreorless. I'd have less faith in corporations to do the right thing. As an Indian, I get nothing but slave treatment even in America becaus…

I understand. Raion of the pre-2021 era was prone to making a lot of edgy and offensive jokes. He made a joke about me being Indian and I kinda just went "really bro?". He expresse…
