Roundabouts are great (we just had two complex intersections with traffic lights replaced by roundabouts and the traffic flow is much better), but they take significantly more spac…

Many of these topics (and more) are explored in Ted Chiang's "The Lifecycle of Software Objects" ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Lifecycle_of_Software_Obje... ).

I have updated the Lua binding to support the session extension ( http://lua.sqlite.org/home/timeline?r=session ) and it's been integrated into the current version of cosmopolitan/…

It's an IDE, but it allows building full GUI apps. It's itself written in Lua using wxlua/wxwidgets toolkit, so has access to the majority of the modules availables in wxwidgets. T…

FWIW there is ongoing work with good progress to add websocket support to redbean ( https://github.com/jart/cosmopolitan/pull/967 )

True, but I take loading a dishwasher as a puzzle to do it in the most compact/efficient way, which helps with adding enjoyment to the process.

Look great! I've done something similar with exactly the same approach of fully reevaluating Love functions, which allows changing the app behavior on the fly: http://notebook.kulc…

I find it easier to read if it's something like "22% with $5 minimum per month".

No, to my knowledge cosmopolitan doesn't provide any special provisions to support this, so you'd have to build it yourself.

FWIW, there is ongoing work on dlopen; it was introduced 2 weeks ago ( https://github.com/jart/cosmopolitan/commit/5e8c928f1a37349a... ) and continued after that.

It will complicate the control of the truck and add more components (increasing the cost).

Obituary. necrolog is coming from French and is used in some languages, Russian for example.

There is a similar sign next exit 17 on 405N prohibiting existing and re-entering back.

Don't worry, it will be paused for your convenience and resumed when you come back.

There is no support for dynamic libraries in Cosmopolitan right now, so the libraries would either need to be compiled in (statically) or included in the archive as Python-only lib…

Yes and yes.

It does indeed look interesting and looks to be similar to Lua in several aspects (although, there are some noticeable differences too). FWIW, there has been work done in eLua to k…

I don't think it's really that wrong-headed. What are the choices: (1) march ahead trying to salvage the current design with no clear path forward (other than waiting for the SSR s…

I mostly use arclite, Brackets matching, Netbox (for FTP access), Process list, FarColorer and Temporary panel. I suspect most of them come bundled with Far.

I've been using FAR for the last 20+ years on a daily basis and it hasn't crashed a single time for me. I like its minimalist UI, but a quite complex functions are only a click or …

You are being facetious. Libraries used to be able to do this and this is exactly how it was working until relatively recently (I received a notification earlier this year as someo…

> What the author is missing is the comparison with physical books, which never had this feature. You want to recommend the library get a book? You fill out the form they have. Tha…

> it's a long rant against a feature change which is really just "I don't like this change in behavior". The search box likely changed to show results from only your library, inste…

The article (and the local-first software) has nothing to do with cloud vs. on-prem. It's about the priorities in developing and running/using your applications: "The word “local” …

Agree; it also helps to write documentation supporting the example. On several occasions I ended up reworking APIs I'd been working on after writing documentation for them, as some…
