Except that we are not 400 years ago when money was gold.

True, you could write a new Qt control. Then you hit the second requirement: complete bitmap theming, many times of a skeuomorphic kind. This is extremely difficult to do in someth…

Funny how there are a few domains where the same problem is solved over and over again. Probably an indication that a good solution is truly missing. A long time ago I wrote a tiny…

Indeed, replacing this with the list of top 100 passwords would be much more effective.

While that might be true, you are not going to switch the world to program in Haskell. We need a solution which also works for most used languages, JS/C++/Java/Python..., which sug…

> running all non-I/O dependencies in an entirely separate process from the main program. Maybe that's not such a bad idea. This "strong_password" thing is written in Ruby, a few m…

We need a sort of capability and permission method for libraries. For example a "strong_password" library should only by given "CPU compute" permissions, no I/O. But even with this…

This is well known. Why do you think the strongest of the strong bacteria are found in hospitals? Because they do a lot of cleaning and disinfecting. The weak are purged, the few w…

It's even more impressive when you see that his account is named 'sureaboutthis"

> sold bendy phones that don't really bend Are you talking about Samsung Fold? Because they didn't sold not even 1 of that. You should be careful what you wish for. If companies we…

Good luck doing that in the land of the free, where you can get arrested for not mowing your lawn. https://www.usnews.com/news/articles/2016-07-11/single-mothe... Contrast with Eur…

Clicking on table cell initiates/closes trades. Even if you can't react in 100ms, is useful to see how fast they change (how volatile the market is). 1s is definitely too slow. See…

I have a table of 100 rows x 10 columns mostly of numbers which change 10 times a second (think trading). The source data sits in an array of objects. On each update, I need to upd…
