Is "let-over-lambda" (variable capture / closure) not possible in F#? Is that not a form of implicit dependency injection?

This seems fine within a file, but isn't this problematic across files? Now the file order is significant, so not only is the Visual Studio XML project file is an essential part of…

Is there a specific reason why Windows is not supported?

I don't think Microsoft invented it: > On the CDC CYBER, an interlock register is available ... Operation of this interlock register is similar to TEST AND SET Concurrency in Opera…

OBS is very good software, thanks for working on it! Recording the screen works much better than any other screen recording software I tried. For this use case the preview can be a…

A short article titled "Voxel Landscapes 2D and 3D By Scout/C-Lous" described most of the tricks, but I can't find the text anywhere. A similar article by the same author on anothe…

The one I remember was "voxel.pas by Steven H Don". A Delphi port survived here: http://tothpaul.free.fr/sources.php?dprgrp.voxel Searching for "voxel" in https://github.com/nickel…

Even drawing front-to-back you don't need the y-buffer, if you switch the loops: for x ... for y ... Another trick I now remember was to interpolate the color values on such a y-se…

Same with leaning. Add one more line of code and tweak the draw call: var ylean = (input.leftright*(i/screenwidth-0.5) + 0.5) * screendata.canvas.height / 4; DrawVerticalLine(i, he…

There were also tricks to extend this simple rendering algorithm to allow limited rotations around the other two axes, to look up / down slightly (just move everything up / down; a…

You are correct, thanks.

purge is a third-party extension; it removes untracked files as you wrote. But ~purge~ prune is also a command of the evolve extension, that is conceptually similar to strip, as GP…

Fortunately "transplant" is just an old extension, so you can just forget entirely about it. "Graft" copies; "Rebase" moves. Alternatively just forget about graft also, and use "re…

I don't understand the reasons. What is the actual problem in this "even-odd problem"? How do all the other languages that have an equivalent function (Perl quotemeta, PHP preg_quo…

Are there options for machine local IPC over pipes in .NET Core?

"Python 3’s approach is unambiguously the worst one" No rationale for this seems to be included in the article.

I did see the screenshots. That's what triggered my comment. I did not see any branch names. Now I see "nh-scroll-fix" and "origin/fix-simulate-na..." in the conflict dialog, but n…

Why do merge tools pretend that "their" and "our" or "remote" and "local" are good labels? Can they not show the commit message and hash? Nowadays with history editing often both s…
