Sounds very similar to that leaked Mr. Beast document.

Linux Desktop is starting to smell a lot like Android now judging by how vertically integrated it is becoming. With the push for a permissively-licensed (MIT, BSD etc.) userland an…

Digging further, this has been shown before in 2020: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23337091 The author mentions in the thread that he eventually plans to have a proper licen…

I'm surprised no one has noticed this yet.

That assumes there is pride they have to bother to keep.

Now that I think about it, and I don't know if this exists yet, but APL would probably very much benefit from having a Scratch-like or Factorio-like visual editor paired with a tou…

APL suffers from the same apparent problems as Perl: They have friction coming from an unconventional syntax that's hard to understand without knowing the language beforehand, and …

Today's satire is tomorrow's reality, if the last 50 or so years is anything to go by.

>Godot locks you into the Godot way of doing things. MonoGame is a thin cross-platform abstraction over platform APIs for sprite rendering, audio playback, input, and font, leaving…

Uh, is having Aurora Store as a signatory a good idea? It's literally a Google Play Store bypassing tool.

Honestly, this sounds like a future headache that would otherwise go unnoticed unless the programmer is dealing with porting or binding over source code meant for older Windows sys…

Wouldn't that be just QR codes (and equivalents)? I suppose 3D printers can be used to etch/print them onto a durable material and then have it read back using the measuring tools …

I haven't really looked into this, but is it possible to make GTK4 apps look liek standard GTK2/GTK3 applications? It feels like every single modern GTK app I've encountered has th…

Shoutouts to Audacious https://audacious-media-player.org/

`archive.ph` doesn't seem to work on paywalled Medium articles. Not trying to point fingers or make a comment on the value of the article's content, but it's worth noting that 7 li…

I really hope Google doesn't pick this out (and similar events) as further justification for getting rid of APK-based installation.

I skimmed through it. Note that this book was written right before Tinder launched (2012), which might have skewed the demographic data points found in this edition (2010). Althoug…

Why doesn't Zig attract the same sort of lukewarm response that Rust does from parts of communities?

Another aside - I do end up spending a lot of time working on the presentation of a thing like trying to polish things like user interfaces, vector or raster graphics, typesetting,…

I'm not sure if I understand correctly about "thinking in concrete English sentences or words" as other comments have mentioned, so here's a description of what happens to me: I ca…

All of these can be summed up as: "Bangs are more interesting than whimpers."

Putting aside all logical arguments for and against Linkedin and other social media, when I do force myself to log in to my account, I find myself peering into the abyss of thousan…

I tried my damnedest to give my fish a ballsack. That's a real good fishiness detector.

Don't forget Qt (though I think that's more a corporation wanting to create an incentive to make commercial users pay for a license)
