    In what general direction would the innovation be? I'm not sure if it's actually needed - a lot of things have been tried and the paradigms that persisted you can choose between bu…

    Wondering if it's just the marketing that Noctua did, and the actual mold and process engineering left to some fab in China?

    A fork of OnlyOffice with some big names behind it who want to make it easier to build and contribute to, great. Yet LibreOffice seems to remain the only FOSS office solution with …

    My dog doesn't react to familiar voices over the phone at all. The compression and reproduction of audio, while fine for humans, definitely doesn't work for her animal ears.

    Zig has the concept of illegal behavior, of which a subset is unchecked illegal behavior - basically undefined behavior, but if evaluated at comptime, it results in a compile error…

    Maybe a good use case for AI to help with a quick transition?

    I liked Zulip a lot until that Flutter rewrite. Maybe it's more accessible now but the new look is not for me. I believe the app navigation is largely unchanged, and still doesn't …

    Thanks a lot, this was quite enlightening, like what "buffering in the interface" really means. A follow-up post would nice! I'm also curious what preserve in rebase is used for in…
