CodeCompost··on Quake Engine Indicators
When I read the title I was expecting it to talk about indicators in the inheritance sense, say how you can tell if an engine has a Quake Engine pedigree. Like looking at the graphics or the online behavior of a game and tracing it back to Quake's renderer or netcode.

Still a cool article though.

I donnow. C# and .NET are amazing. People tend to ignore it because Microsoft, but they are being short-sighted. What shiny things are you missing?

CodeCompost··on Users only care about 20% of your application
Ok
CodeCompost··on Users only care about 20% of your application
I didn't read the article but in my experience, 80% of the application are parts that you rarely touch, config stuff and "LEFT JOIN" stuff.

There is always one or two parts where all data comes together and that is the heart of your application. Yeah those are the parts your users care about and pay you to make.

I'm surprised there isn't a version that runs on browsers using Emscripten.
CodeCompost··on The Deletion of Docker.io/Bitnami
Back in the day, Bitnami was a way to run Wordpress on Windows. They packaged it nicely so that you could install it on Windows Server. Nowdays that could get you fired, but back then Linux was not so widespread.

CodeCompost··on United States Disappeared Tracker
While it's good thing a site like this exists but the more important question here, one which should have also been answered more than 80 years ago is, what can one do about it? "First they came for ...". Yes we know they came for a bunch of people, but what can I, you or anyone do about it? Anybody got any idea?

Delphi was nice, but the community was horrible to me, accelerating the move of my company to C#.

Thing is, so was Firefox. Say, for example, Ladybird becomes a massive success. What is stopping it from going down the Chrome and Firefox route? No project is immune to money.
CodeCompost··on PanGui – A cross-platform UI library with a razor sharp focus on performance
It's funny that they show https://xkcd.com/2347/ to illustrate the "problem" but ironically they're going to end up with https://xkcd.com/927/
