That was a fun read. Kudos to the writer. This is software development life.

Well, back in the day you had 4 megs of ram, MS-DOS and other OSes that are simple as they come, and full access to the hardware. These days if you want to support macOS, Windows, …

Thank you for this! Could possibly just hotpatch my existing app, add this to the packed in javascript .asar resource file and not having to make a new build with updated Electron …

Reminds me of the performance optimization somebody discovered in Super Mario World for SNES, where displaying the player score in was very inefficient, taking about 1/6 of the fra…

I remember dropping parallel hashmap into my C++ app after years of using the standard library containers, and being honestly positively surprised my app got significantly faster a…

You can just search for HDR videos in Youtube.

Sure, but a lot of extra work for something like that. Also, Apple Walled Garden..

Metal allows Apple to squeeze that extra performance out of their devices. They have full control over, and can implement whatever they need to deliver Apple Vision Pro for example…

I love mate. It has probably saved my life as a software developer, not tolerating the strong effect of coffee on my sleep, but yerba mate, and especially freshly stored in vacuum …

Hehe spot on. 58% faster ad delivery, in 58% more random places than you would have expected!

The hardware looks and sounds great. Too bad it's running Windows 11.

Long and dark winter probably. Nothing to do but sit inside, and study the dark arts of computers.

Good article on the basic nature of software projects, they never seem to end unless you decide them to end. When to do that ? Who the hell knows, it took me about 10 years for my …

It is a cause that cannot be discussed here, without getting downvoted to oblivion.

Bram was a a legend. So many people dying right now. Hopefully it was not the same cause that so many other people relatively young are dying from right now. Seems he was 62, not s…

Hopefully they really put effort into the web part of the product, I mean really writing text on a phone or even a tablet is not so easy. But I'm guessing they wont do that, as Met…

Twitter is a hard platform to get into I think, I used to think for a long time that what good is this thing for. Then it kinda clicked, at least for me it's not about tweeting stu…

Yeah, must be a damn big task trying to fix a codebase that is already over 10 years old.

Don't know about that, but before Musk the shadowbans were just a theory and I remember Jack Dorsey even denying existence of them. The committee twitter had before was in close co…

All this talk about demise of twitter, and why ? For me at least personally, the experience is better. No more cult of personalities with "verified" badges and wondering who gets i…

Interesting story. Wonder what caused his downfall into insanity. Was Zappos getting a sudden influx of money, giving him too much sense of power and importance ? It's also sad tha…

I did not mean Nazis. Have you even followed the censorship in Twitter for example and the situation that is unraveling now ? We already ban certain views, but yet, pornography: no…

Well, I dont do that. But what are you going to do about the majority of people doing this ? And children looking at their phones. I've heard of tales of second graders looking at …

Yeah the hypocrisy is really silly. You can kill, murder, maim people, but oh no better censor that butt crack showing! And yet at the same time, most of the porn industry is in th…
