Viewing profile — usrbinenv

No mobile version, but I'm visiting from a tablet, should work at least if switch to "Desktop" in the browser manually. I don't care if I get horizontal scroll - not showing your v…

I know about it, but I'm not interested in QubeOS approach. It's VMs all the way down, while what I'm talking about is no VMs and capabilities as first class citizens and no vurtua…

In case of updating the binary, yes, you generally want to make sure it comes from the same source and therefore cannot do damage to things it already has access to. But when you i…

I didn't mean it in the Java way. I meant that whatever operating system you're on, you can download random programs from the internet (compiled specifically for your OS or portabl…

I understand why in 1979 and perhaps until mid 1990s capability OS architecture might have been irrelevant and excessive. But after that, it sounds like the only architecture suita…

I was recently exploring "an OS from scratch" architecture with ChatGPT. Apart from the central idea that I wanted it to be a capability OS, I also started thinking about how I'd m…

Of course, it's pretty easy to see through this: introduce law in a few states, but now every OS needs to comply and because it's hard to actually tell which country/state user is …

I don't understand the hype around CI and that it's supposedly impossible to run something like that without Git, let alone Github. Like sure, a nice interface is fine, but I can d…

Alpine/htmx are great, but they're more "sprinkle behavior on HTML" tools. Qite is closer to a structured component system: explicit events, a state engine, and a consistent way to…

What you probably saw isn't code in quotes, but simply matchers like `price: "isPresent()"`. The () is there to signal it's a matcher, not a value. If this matcher doesn't exist, y…

Yeah, I get the reaction. It's not JavaScript, it's simply a way to reference a matcher for the value, not match against literal value. You can totally use your custom matcher like…

Thank you. Since you had this positive reaction to which I very much relate, may I ask you what did you personally think was confusing in the docs that may still turn people away?

Btw, looking back at the index page, I think I might have made the initial example a little bit too much (because realistically, you don't often get components that complex). If yo…

Yeah, several apps have been built with it, but they're not public (or not public yet). Also, Qite.js has a number of prebuilt-components. I haven't gotten around documenting them,…

It's a bit more nuanced than that. State in Qite is held both in HTML and in JS Component. The html serialization is sort of consequence of changing a field (like when you want to …

It works better than "just like" in the sense that it also takes care of things like CSRF, POST/GET params, request/response types etc for basically free.

As much as we like to think of ourselves as rational beings, emotions are still a very large part of our decision making process. I didn't build Qite because I hate React, I built …

React got popular not because of its amazing time-tested ideas (everyone knows they re-engineer everything once every couple years!), but, strictly speaking, because at the time it…

Just to clarify: Qite does both events AND state, which I find quite powerful and useful.

While it's definitely possible to build similar website with Turbo and Stimulus it would absolute NOT be the same thing and the mechanics of it would be radically different. I woul…

You can have too. The tag doesn't matter. The data-component, data-roles, data-part or data-field attributes is what makes your HTML be a component, a component part or a field in …

And? Does it work? Because it does. It's a lot closer to C++ and you literally need like a week to start being productive and it's insanely flexible as a language. Nobody uses Swif…
