My understanding is that battery capacity is the issue; it's usually above the max allowed on the plane. This company makes a snap-together battery https://ebikes.ca/product-info/g…

A rule I try to follow: don't waste your reader's time.

Happy thinkpenguin customer here. In the old days I researched hardware for GNU/Linux compat; now I just buy a system from them and everything just works.

I think it's partly due to: people like regular garden-variety arrays and hashmaps, and don't want to use car, cdr, cons. I like my array and hashmap literals.

Looks like the name is "Xournal++", but the github repo name is "xournalpp".

The "pen display" is the type where it's a monitor with the transparent trackpad overlaid on it. That, I think, is what you want. I tried the other type, where you write on the tab…

How are your math skills? Do you know any calculus? Are you interested in learning more math to go with the physics?

Janet is small, simple, efficient, and practical. For me it has nice syntax and sensible semantics. Great little package manager too. Very happy with and excited about Janet so far…

Pandoc lets you write in Markdown but also include mathematics in LaTeX. For me this is a nice combination.

Would be nice if that tiny image on the top left of the homepage were clickable so I could see the screenshot full-size.

Well, it also has its very own [Hashlink, virtual machine]( https://hashlink.haxe.org/ ). And it can also compile down to various bytecodes (like JVM), not just to other languages.…

Sounds like you'd like Haxe.

I'm not sure there's a catch, so much as there's just a number of comparable but corporate-backed alternatives that are seeing some popularity right now: * TypeScript (Microsoft) *…

Haxe plus OpenFL or HaxeFlixel?

I believe with Haxe you can use OpenFL to get what you're looking for. FWIU, that provides a nice migration path from Flash.

If cross-compilation is important to you, and you like Nim's level of abstraction, you might have a look at Haxe, which can compile to [ lots of different targets]( https://haxe.or…

If you want Lua under the hood, but a more industrial-strength language on top, you might have a look at Haxe. It can compile to Lua (among other languages/platforms). https://haxe…

> Haxe feels much more promising than most alternatives. If I do web stuff again I'll be diving in here. There is some good library support. I am a little concerned by its relative…
