Photopea is only good for smaller edits/files otherwise it starts lagging like crazy.
That said, Affinity is quite fair fast even on huge files. You can bring over like 80% of your Photoshop muscle memory.
Honorable mentions depending on your needs: Figma, Penpot, Krita
I wish they would release Tiberium Sun
If verbosity is a main stickler, this is coming to golang 1.28 which will cut it down drastically:
On reddit you can downvote spam, so I don't think it survives on the populated reddits.
FastAPI's underlying library, Starlette, has been going through licensing shenanigans too lately: https://github.com/Kludex/starlette/issues/3042
Be really careful who you give your projects keys to, folks!
Tailwind was far ahead of its time in having an OSS business model overall friendly to users while still being able to fund development (Note: OSS projects like Minio, ScyllaDB and CockroachDB do a far more insidious "open core only", or "crazy licensing fees after x processes/users" , etc). It was great to see OSS succeed financially without ads or punishing users.
"Information should be free", sure, but lets not kid ourselves, these massive new AI companies are making themselves new gatekeepers with new artificial moats for themselves. Information is not federated / distributed anymore.
We need "GPL for AI" that restricts AI scrapers from performing content theft/repackaging.
I'm fairly convinced these are bot / LLM generated PR's in the first place; the content is nonsensical garbage.
I recently had a similar junk PR on my 1,700 star repository: https://github.com/gnat/surreal/pull/56
I'm fairly convinced these are bot / LLM generated; the content is nonsensical garbage.
PS: If an LLM needs a whole seperate fork to understand your content, the LLM is failing at it's job.
PS PS: I want to highlight that the PR itself also seems to be an excuse to get the library quantizor made pulled in as a new dependency. Nasty.
Oh man, tons of updates including DDL replication! V2 looks very impressive.
Now I'm curious how sharding/routing is handled- which seems like the final piece of the puzzle for scaling writes.
I like the idea of a "markdown for logic", with transpiliation to lots of different easy backends such as javascript.
Not convinced the language would actually be useful, but I like the ideas for portability.
Udemy is famous for the fuck off style for paying customers.
If you're young, schedule an appointment and go in, get your blood work done. Does not require a family doctor. Last time there was barely any wait time for me.
The annual scheduled vists are for older people / seniors.
My mother had it detected well in advance, and is currently being treated, the cancer is in remission now.
I doubt Rebecca ever got that chance. Sure, surprise late stage cancer happens, but it's often caught when you get semi-annual checkups.

Adobe shitting their pants r n
3 days after posting this amazon is having public facing outages...

I legit cannot buy anything on Amazon. Reddit and Epic Games are also broken.
Learned to code with Borland Turbo C++
Moved to Dev-C++
Nowadays just any editor and using GCC directly
Eternally greatful for open source, Microsoft charged thousands for Visual C++ back then.
Behringer has been fairly consumer friendly over the years, it's much appreciated- its something I consider when buying audio stuff.
AWS has certainly had some pretty public facing downtime ;) I'd say its been roughly the same in my experience- the only way to avoid it IMHO is multi-region.
Yup. It's very good for the ecosystem for AWS to have good competition.
Amazon gets far too greedy- particularly bad when you need egress.
Also an "amazon core" is like 1/8th of a physical cpu core.
Why are they permanently storing government ID's?
Advantages of Litestream over https://sqlite.org/rsync.html ?
Company selling a product based on what's being glazed in the article.
It's always a small vocal fraction or they'd be using a different language.
Feels like an LLM designed system.
IMHO this is already over-engineered as the frameworks being critisised; no simplification happening here.
Rails, PHP, a lot of Python stuff (WSGI is CGI wrapped in a dict).
It's not only just about separation of concerns, but also separation of crashes/bugs/issues. FastCGI servers can run for years without restarts.
Thread creation/teardown/sleeping has gotten a lot faster as well in linux.
https://php-fpm.org/about/ it may be old but PHP-FPM is still one of the best FastCGI servers from a pragmatic point of view... ex: the ability to gracefully hot reload code, stop and start workers without losing any queries... all in production.
Cool to see. SDL 1 went back to System 7, awesomely enough.
Before that you had... Sprite Animation Toolkit by Ingemar Ragnemalm which powered Escape Velocity, etc.
IMHO they should be a good steward and toss the Wireguard guy a mil considering Tailscale is pretty much Wireguard with a GUI on top.
Probably not real. What's the logic behind bringing in a junior at 145k?

Probably not entirely, but straight from the author.
True or not, this is like the energy drink salesman saying coffee is dead.
