It does not happen only with Banks, there are many cases where innocent people, that are flagged by fraud detection machine learning algorithms in social media or any kind of servi…

The greatest cross-platform toolkit is Qt that abstracts away all platforms including mobile and embedded systems. Qt also works on top framebuffer on embedded Linux and on other R…

The problem of creating GUIs libraries almost from scratch is the platform fragmentation, which means that a cross-platform GUI libraries would have to abstract away the Windows AP…

The definition of what is inflation depends on the economic school of thought. In the case of the Austrian and Chicago economic school of thought inflation is the increase of money…

But they are not officially supported plugins, while CMake has official support from major companies and IDE makers, namely Microsoft, Jetbrains, Qt Company. Further comments in th…

In order to Xmake reach the mainstream, it needs to be supported by major IDEs. The major advantage of CMake over all other building systems is the broad range of IDE support. One …

This node npm supply chain attack incident is a wake up call that the current security model of mainstream operating systems such as Linux, MacOSX or Windows are no longer suitable…

Brazil has only itself to blame. Not only Apple products, but several other technology items are pretty expensive due to the VAT (Value Added Taxes), namely, ICMS - state vat tax, …

It depends pretty much on your field. If your field is related to games, formulas related to quaternions, linear algebra and coordinates will be useful; if your field is related to…

Better to stick with CMake due to broad range of IDEs supporting CMake, including, Visual Studio, Visual Studio Code editor, Jetbrain's CLion, QtCreator, KDevelop IDE and also Ecli…

Not a founder. The catch is that docker fixes the Linux dependency hell problem that stems from the fact that the server Linux distribution may not have the dependencies you need f…

Well, goto in this case is not that bad. Without goto the Linux code would be full of many nested if-else, what would lead to more bugs, as C lacks C++ RAAI (Resource-Acquisition-I…

> But having used busybox utils on a daily basis I truly do not understand how people can use them daily and not go insane. Busybox is meant to be used in embedded Linux systems, o…

On mobile systems, the major concern is low power usage and battery duration, not performance, hence the dominance of ARM-based chips in this field. The great appeal of M1 chip is …

The system calls are documented and backward compatible. However, Glib-C is only forward compatible, but not forward compatible. An application, built linking against an older vers…

It seems that some functional programming languages are hard to sell to management due to the limited adoption, talent pool concerns and integration with existing systems and code.…

But C lacks even strings, lots of C bugs and vulnerabilities are related to memory management, memory ownership and string handling. Even the C subset of C++ is better than C since…

Yep, but the installation is far simpler than the procedure for installing a Linux application not available at repositories or an application that uses unstable libraries likely t…

Well some "real engineers" really do code, but mostly not CRUD applications. Most embedded systems, industrial control systems and avionic software are designed and crafted by elec…

Well the problem of Snaps is complex sandbox, lack of user control, forced updates and so on which is disliked on many non-Ubuntu distributions. Flatpack attempts to solve the depe…

It is possible to write safe-C, but C is far more error prone than C++. C has more implicit type conversions than C++, which may results in bugs and undefined behaviours. C lacks R…

The reason may be that just like Mozilla Foundation, they may be tired of dealing with bugs such as buffer overflow, integer overflow, undefined behaviours and use-after-free which…

If you are not afraid of unsafe blocks and extern "C" functions, it is possible to call a any C api directly including Win32 API for GUI graphical user interfaces. On Linux, one ca…

The whole problem is that Anbox is distributed as Snaps which is disliked by folks from many non Ubuntu-like Linux distributions. It would be interesting if there was a docker imag…
