It seems libsdl2 does not support framebuffer anymore, which is critical for embedded devices(no gpu or 3D acceleration i.e. opengl needed there)

Great. Thanks!

I'm trying htmx after years of frustration with all other SPAs and build tools and changes.

after reading the site I still feel I need a little more information, is there known projects made with htmx somewhere for me to study?

Thanks for the great work!!

"Since I started interviewing, we have only hired white or Asian men" -- I actually found this outright racism, it's like saying our NBA roster are still mostly black for the last few decades.

Focus on the merit of them, not the skin color, like Dr.M.L.K said. It's hard to force an Asian to be a NBA player, and it might be difficult to force some black to be a coder, they all have their fields to shine, I pick this just trying to make a point, you pick people by how good they are, not how their skin color looks.

pure text is easy to work with most of the time, in fact ascii diagram is used heaviyl in RFCs

200 years is good enough for me, how can I do that? How much do I need to get that? Do I need replace my blood every 3 months like Peter Thiel is doing?

Read somewhere saying our DNA is coded at 120 years 16 days or something like that, everything expires after that point, unless you can replace them ahead of time, if we know how that is.

I am learning python right now, Python is not only non beginner friendly, it's also not C-family(java,c++,js...) friendly(assuming most developers knew some C before taking on Python). That been said, it's versatile enough for me to continue, but calling it beginner-friendly is misleading to say the least.

Python is absolutely not beginner friendly, but JS is just worse when you consider its who-knows-what-is-in-there nodejs and npm and twenty different ways to build and treeshaking or whatever. If I have to pick one, it has to be python unless I do web frontend.

after the election I cut the ties with all long-term friends who holds a different political view, none of us can bear with another sides so let's get rid of each other. I feel so much relieved actually and never looked back, in fact I should have done this long time ago. There is no way to get along, YOLO, no need to bend just for the fake of outdated nothing-in-common 'friendship' anymore.

for those who are not even old friends and on the other side of the wall, I hope we live in different countries and never see each other ever on the street.

I never felt that disappointed in the so called democracy, for a 50:50 split in this country, something must be changed or it will tie both sides deadly, nothing can be done then. Maybe a war is indeed the way out.

Use RPi for NAS is really a stretch. Just buy those low-power x86 mini-itx boards with 4GB memory and 4 SATA ports along with gigabit ethernet, they're around $150?

Note the smaller size of RPi-etc makes no sense when you're going to host 4 hard drives anyways which takes quite some space on their own, and you need a decent PSU for the drives too, and a solid case as well, etc.

Just buy those ASRock mini-itx boards at newsegg or somewhere and let RPi do what it's best at.

You're right, it does not seem ARM-acquisition helped or damaged NVDA stock both ways over the past 5 months.

"Moving away from ARM", to where? X86 does not seem like a good destination, RISC V is not there, MIPS/AI-chips etc are not a trend either, I honestly don't know where else the CPU industry can move to.

Suppose if the sale did not succeed, what will happen to Nvidia's high-flying stocks partially caused by this merger? I don't own Nvida stocks, just be curious

yet on my newest and best ubuntu20.04 when you type 'python' you are still running python2, which I don't use, will we ever be possible to use python as python3 by default,it's annoying.

let python be python3, and python2 for python2 instead

I do not live in CA and have never took any contract jobs from CA, its contract hourly rate is not competitive at all and to make it worse, its state income tax will take another cut(~13%), there is no way CA's contract rate can be competitive, CA is in decline in general as far as I can see.

gitea like everything else won't make everyone happy but for me it's a godsend, it's my personal git server for the last two years and I use it daily.

however if you have special requirement like a large team, or accessiblity(which I didn't check) you can try something else. The point here is that, it's much easier to use gitea than to use git+gitolite+nginx unless you want to spend more time with sysadmin instead of development itself.

since lambda is for simple and short anonymous functions most of the time why do I need type the whole word each time? can they also do what javascript does(or similar):

    x => x * 2

instead of

    lambda x : x * 2

This move will lead to new innovations,say a new network service designed that will be bulletproof against the big cloud providers or even the pipe providers(AT&T,etc), something like P2P or dark net.

I'm expecting telecom vendors to chime in to cut off the network for the voices they do not like.

I used to think telegram/signal are designed for some other countries, never thought it could be useful for USA where free speech is guaranteed by the constitutions, no more.

which one?

Looks awesome to me. Will use it in future projects. Thanks for the great work.

exactly, currently those clone-pi are sold as a devkit basically, but they're essentially used like an official product which is 'illegal', I never got the idea why the vendor did not certify their boards, it is really not much when they are shipping (tens of) thousands of these boards.

Let's call all the rest Clone Pi, there are so many and it's hard to count.

To be fair, Raspberry Pi got its idea from BeagleBoard then Beagle Bone along with Arduino, small ARM boards with Linux.

The problem with Clone-Pi series is that none of them are FCC-certified, while Raspberry Pis are.

one of the key questions is that who sponsored this study, e.g. if the gaming industry is sponsoring this kind of study it got to be biased and misleading to say the least.

SPA moves all the routing/templating to the browser side.

server side rendering does it all on the server and spits out html(legacy cgi style)

between these two: static html template downloaded from the server, then use ajax to update json in the html pages, which is the old boring way but it might still be the best middle ground?

Unless I need make a desktop complex GUI program where SPA could be a reasonable choice, I will just do the html/ajax old way, not fully geared towards to server or client side rendering, life is much easier.

I took on contract jobs once a while, so far I rejected all the chances from CA, partially due to the 13.5%(?) income tax, that made its price non-competitive, plus, I hate to file a CA state tax, I'm used to no state income tax for decades.

I never live in CA, does not use its transportation/police/schools, why do I need pay for this state income tax shit just for remote work?

One of the best products from Russia these days, another one is Telegram.

I have an annual license for all its products, I actually use vim daily, but still keep Jetbrains, just in case.

I got it, it's everyone-design-all-you-need days.

    Apple designs all its shit.
    So does google/facebook/microsoft/amazon
    Huawei designs its own OS
    China designs/manufactures its own chips too.
    It's rumored more companies are designing their own OS

Looks great, is there a way to shorten those MACROs, a little too verbose/lengthy for readability, it's probably just me.

same here also it's much faster to open when you have a really large repository

So, how much does YC earn? I guess the 7% must be diluted somehow.

With Airbnb, Dropbox etc, YC should have billions in asset.

in this case why not just use go-binary as the backend? go is natively designed to be single executable and you don't need any package tools, and it does everything node.js can do on your OS while using your browser as a GUI frontend.
