vcpkg and conan are gaining momentum. vcpkg was just integrated into CLion!

Check out the list on Mudlet (https://mudlet.org), it's a FOSS desktop app for playing online test games you describe. Comes with a selection of good games pre -configured.

How does this compare to BLOOMZ's performance, if anyone knows?

I don't believe you are correct I'm this. A paid account is necessary to obtain the signing cert.

Why?

I think it's a great experiment, keep doing what you're doing. Removing the footguns from C++ without wildly changing the syntax up is a solid idea.

Do a lot of steps. It's crazy good, here is the science: https://www.strongerbyscience.com/research-spotlight-activit...

Routines do wonders. It's only hard the first few times, afterwards it becomes second nature to go and workout after work. It also helps that I've never, ever regretted doing a workout - you always feel amazing.

Work 8h, go to gym, work more on hobbies at home. Fits well for me for years - physical exercise, either aerobic or anaerobic, is a great mental reset for me that's worked for years.

Agreed, Jabras work great without the issues listed here.

Isn't one of the execs ex-Musk employee? Sad to see this culture creeping into EU.

Awesome! I see there's mentions of it on the website, but I don't see how to do it via the dashboard UI and there's not much in the docs about it. Wrote to support, would be nice to try this out.

It's a bit unclear, but can this be used to test native desktop applications as well?

This is fantastic news and a model for others to follow. Going to scope 3 ("indirect emissions from making products and services, e.g., from purchased materials, business travel, etc.") really is going above & beyond what other businesses are doing - and not only that, they're even offsetting 125% AND donating the same amount as a "promise bank" to buy carbon capture tech when it's available.

Couldn't be prouder to be a DDG user.

You can set a global budget cap to avoid this kind of concern. That said, I've also blown the budget cap by accident - so agree with you on the DO.

Pretty much - and there's a nice app developed by an Oxford student that does this for Android: https://trackercontrol.org

It works very well, I highly recommend it.

You can, but if you actually start .NET on Linux without Windows and Visual Studio, you're not going to have the best experience. Lacking the background knowledge of the old .NET framework and how VS works was a consistent pain - both when reading outdated documentation and when getting help on something.

I'd recommend it to a Windows dev who wants to go crossplatform, but never to a crossplatform dev.

Same. The only device I don't use it on is the Chromebook - ChromeOS doesn't seem to be Firefox' target market.

Makes me think of this: https://xkcd.com/538.

One of the issues of running an open-source C++ project is the difficulty in obtaining stack traces from users - hoping to re-use the work that Mozilla did here for Firefox, so thanks team for paving the path there for others.

When was this? Sustainability is all the hype in 2021. Big brands are now rushing to be sustainable or they're seen as falling behind.

This is fantastic and this is just about how you should do your Linux product.

Where do you get UI/UX people in from?

You exactly understand and confirm my point - outside of the bubble Windows/VS bubble, it's not a super nice developer experience. If you want to work hard to make it work: you can, but... why go out of your way?

And I haven't said anything about building GUIs here yet, which is another world of pain on .NET.

Yeah, of course, now try to build a real world application with it.

Aliases: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/csharp/language-refe.... Support for those was only added in the last year or so to the dotnet/nuget/roslyn/whatever it is needed things to make it work. Microsoft's own documentation only documents how to use it for Visual Studio: too bad if you're using another IDE or the command line like you did above.

It's not complicated, but the .NET tooling on Linux did not understand it :) that's what my point is all about. For the best .NET experience, use Visual Studio on Windows. If you're not on those two, the tooling experience is not going to be particularly pleasant - nor the documentation.

My advice after having tried it seriously - .NET does work crossplatform, I've seen it, but you need to be a Windows dev to tap into that. Would not recommend a mac/linux dev who's looking to do cross-platform work to pick .NET as the foundation.

Sorry, I don't buy it - tried it for 4 years and that's just not the case. It was stumbling block to be on Linux and without Visual Studio with every tutorial or instructions. I think you have it easy since you know the ecosystem so well - and coming over from Windows, you know what alternatives to look for.

For me, even simple things like getting C# aliases working was a pain. I would not recommend a Linux developer to be picking up C# to do cross-platform development anytime soon. The only nice benefit I've seen is the amount of batteries included with .NET - but that's a solvable problem in other languages.

Java projects publish Javadoc which is good - you can sit down and understand an API. It's not the same story on .NET.

> Windows tutorials will expect you to use Visual Studio as that is the IDE that primary IDE of people using Windows.

Yep, hence the bubble. Python doesn't have this problem, for example.

I jumped into .NET w/o any background while running Linux - it's not a pleasant experience when you lack the heavy Windows+VS background you've had. Perhaps Jetbrains Rider is better, but at this point you know all the ins and outs of the platforms - a beginner lack that.
