Absolutely agree. I hate the state management mess in these frameworks.

So a few questions: 1. Does this support threading? 2. Can I develop my website using this? 3. Can I develop a Claude competitor using this?

Much thanks!

Same here.

In the late 90s and early 2000s, I could not have imagined a scenario where an editor takes up 200+ MB! The entire Office 97 suite was well under 192MB closer to 130MB! Adobe Photoshop CS2 installed was under 370 MB.

Memory usage now is also insane.

Office 2000 would run on 32MB of RAM and run really well on 64MB! Now a single tab on Firefox or any other browser on a static website takes up well over 400MB.

A single tab showing Facebook on my laptop takes up about 390MB! Even Hackernews website takes up 36MB!

I too want to go back to the days when things were a lot simpler.

How often do you do a 4k RDP session on Linux?

For me the power of Object Pascal and Delphi was the ability to create reusable components that could be easily installed into the IDE. These components had powerful property sheets which could be used to set the values for their various properties etc.

Lazarus does fill that gap but somehow doesn't quite have the same feeling as the original Delphi.

The Free Oberon IDE looks like Turbo Pascal development enviroment from the late 80s and the early 90s. I wonder if it would have the concept of reusable components.

I just wish there were opensource OSs (not AOSP) like this for smartphones with full support for GPS, gyro, maps etc. But I guess that is not going to happen with all of the binary blobs.

I have to say that I hate SPAs. It is often a far worse user experience than the vanilla multi-page websites.

You mean the experiments where they said there wasn't enough data to show that what-cannot-be-named may have adverse effects?

Now those adverse events are showing up but you will still insist that it cannot possibly have anything to do with what-cannot-be-named without even checking

Interesting to see that I am being downvotted even when I didn't name what-cannot-be-named. The groupthink is strong on this one

Interesting project! It is the first time I am hearing of it. I understand that the LSP support is in progress. It would be great if an IDE similar to Delphi could be developed as well - but I know that is a HUGE ask.

Well said

Yes, that which-cannot-be-named! It is amazing how everyone is tip toeing around it

However, this is not about age verification or protecting children. That is just the excuse they are using.

If Meta, Google etc could easily have algorithms in place for determining the age of the person seeing the video - apart from having the override capability via a parental login as you have stated.. but these platforms have consistently refused to limit the type of content they are showing to children.

I wish there was a similar attempt at making "open source" motorcycles

That is cool! thank you.

What a stupid move! way to make things worse for yourself! Some people have such low impulse control it is just unbelievable the sort of damage they can do to themselves and others.

The Borland/Inprise/Embarcadero mess impacted a lot of software.

They could have still been the king of the hill now if it weren't for the suits who completely ruined it after Philippe Kahn left the scene.

There is a transaction charge for IMPS which is not there for UPI. Also, IMPS only works against already pre-approved bank accounts

It would be great if the Phel repl could connect to a running PHP process

India's UPI is also extremely quick and easy to use - instant transfers with just the person's phone number or via a QR code or via a UPI id which looks like an email id.

We are talking about 19-20 billion transactions per month.

Apart from UPI, there are other interbank transfers methods such as NEFT, IMPS, RTGS etc. All quite convenient and easy to use.

PHP remains one of the fastest ways of getting a web application done - especially with frameworks like Yii2, Laravel etc.

The governments know fully well that simple checks for age verification will be bypassed. So they will "fix" this issue by demanding a digital id.

Wow! I am sure the kids are totally kicked and will remember this for the rest of their lives!

We need many more of these sorts of projects - for kids as well as adults

Google Maps has made me a total idiot. I can't remember routes to places where I have gone quite a few times!

Just as the advent of palm-sized organizers reduced our ability to recall dozens and sometimes even 100s of phone numbers of friends etc, AI will reduce our ability to perform a range of functions.

I think the evidence for this is quite clear. Humans are NOT going to expend any energy - even mental energy, to think about something if they don't have to.

Why in the world would you give an AI agent the ability to delete your production database AND ALL OF YOUR BACKUPS in one go?!

And it is not even the first highly publicised instance of this happening!

Crazy!

Any second now they will also find out that AI won't buy the products you create either.

Amazing to see all of the things kids have been finding these days!

It was my favourite magazine. The only way I could access it was by going to the US Information Services Library attached to their consulates.

I learned a tremendous deal from it and I will forever be grateful.
