Is Netflix even using H265?

Is this a joke? There are about a thousand projects / things I would rather donate to before a trivial color visualizer.

This website sucks, it takes forever to load challenge pages because they're flooded with irrelevant entries which you can't even see if you don't submit your own. You can't even v…

How's the performance of the resulting games? With unity I've found that it's a mixed bag, but it's hard to know if that's the fault of developers or the engine.

>execute AIs on clients, and send their inputs along with players' inputs That seems strange, you'd be sending multiple times the same AI's actions to the server, in which case you…

It's funny how you see these articles about fancy text editor buffer representation (gap buffer, ropes) but meanwhile, the editor with the best feature/performance ratio (including…

I somewhat doubt that a hollow plastic tank is significantly more expensive than a concrete block. Factor in the added cost of shipping the much heavier concrete block, and it seem…

>because of sore fingers Maybe in the beginning, but after having developed calluses you can basically practice for an undefinite period of time.

Maybe in the short term you'll change distro or stick to X11, but when you decide to change GPU you'll likely try to get one with more compatibility.

I never understood why people argue that operator overload is a bad thing. In a language that doesn't support it, you're going to have a function "T add(T, T)" which is pretty much…

But then you get different behavior depending on the platform, which doesn't seem any more portable to me.

I've also gutted a lot of stuff from termite in my own fork (overaly, vi mode, clickable urls) and it definitely makes for a lovely minimalistic terminal. I'm thankful for termite …

Are you talking about Xi as a frontend for kakoune? If it's the UI part that you're interested in, there is also kakoune-qml[1] made by one of the regular uses. [1] https://github.…

Kakoune[1] has been posted recently here on HN to great reception. As a C++ developer, I think it has a very high quality codebase, especially considering how non-trivial it is. As…

>I just wish you guys can learn more of vi, so you can truly deliver something better. So far, these surface scratching alterations only build on irritations of those vi first-time…

Yes it's in no way a dealbreaker, but it starts rearing its head when you want to use keys outside of the alphanumeric cluster. I also absolutely agree that this is the correct way…

Mmh right, but that's not going to dispel my feeling that mawww is actually a weeaboo.

Oh that makes a lot of sense, that's probably the origin of the name. The project is quite a bit older than that though (>4 years).

I don't understand what you mean. It's destructive in the sense that the raw input is not even being passed to the application in the terminal. No applications running in the termi…

For example the fact that the terminal does not make any difference between and . Or and .

> What would a GUI bring to this that isn't possible in the console? Not being destructive of user input, for starters.

For what it's worth, it works properly on cygwin (and certainly the linux subsystem too). I know that the author uses it on cygwin too so there is at least some guarantee.

>How would that work if the motion comes first? Would I go "wwwwd"? Would that delete one word, or four? 'w' will move the current selection to the next word so only one word. To e…

They are just command that you could execute manually (using ':' like in vim). The difference is that all the commands in this file are executed at startup. As I said, all the heav…

As a user, I think this is the main reason why I like kakoune: > Another often overlooked property of using a text editing language is that it’s fun. Some other things that I like …
