One of the challenges with using ImGui is that it is designed for game engines which always render a new frame each update of the game loop.

You can setup your ImGui program to only render new frames when there are new input events or your UI changes, but that’s not what the AI generated.

As it is now, it will max out one CPU core at 100% redrawing the same frames since glfwPollEvents() was used in the main loop.

Antitrust pressure has slowed consolidation, opened app distribution, killed the anti-competitive iMessage and AirDrop moats

iMessage is still only available on Apple hardware. Apple’s malicious compliance has made developing apps for third party app stores a no-go. I have AltStore installed but there are no apps worth installing.

Is this only data for new rental contracts and doesn’t reflect data from older/existing contracts?

The prices match ImmoScout, but are insanely high above the Mietspiegel, and therefore not actually a legal rent.

You should learn whatever field you are interested in, doesn’t matter if others are already masters in that domain. You life shouldn’t be oriented around how you can be most appealing to capitalist companies, but instead what interests you.

Imagine telling students in school to not bother learning physics or calculus, as others have already mastered those fields.

Programming peaked 8 months ago

Now it’s about how the device can be programmed to spy and manipulate you so the company can extract more value for the shareholders.

In Germany if you’re mid to high earner, a private insurance can cost you less than half than the public healthcare system and you get much better service. Starting with appointments with specialists, who always give preference to privately insured people.

The solution here is to get rid of private insurance in Germany and only have public. It creates a two class system and private is a terrible choice once you are older, as costs will skyrocket.

I think the main argument that it is theft, is that they contribute nothing to the continued surplus generated after their loan was repaid. So they effectively steal the profits like a parasite.

Why should they get ownership of the business? When you get a mortgage for your house, the bank doesn’t permanently own part of your house after you pay it off.

Local first isn’t limited to web apps. It’s a style of application development in which you locally store and operate on the data rather than fetching it from a cloud backend every time. For native apps that means a local database or individual files on the file system.

phoning home, telemetry, and other privacy violations; forced upgrades; closed source, etc.

This describes proprietary software developed by capitalist companies. This has nothing to do with local first.

This is really bizarre, the decline of western quality life is caused by capitalism and wealth inequality. Coinbase is a massive Silicon Valley capitalist company.

I never really understood company hackathons. Usually they involve people submitting their own ideas and trying to implement them in a crunch mode for some meager reward. This just comes off as the company trying to exploit people for new ideas rather than have a proper R&D department work on coming up with innovations.

Apple could have disabled iCloud completely for UK users. This would protect both UK users and other users who’s data would also been captured in an iCloud backup.

They would lose some money on services, but would have been the better choice to stand up to the UK government and protect the UK users.

While the salary will be lower, the cost of living in Europe is much cheaper than in the US. You also get much more via the social services and safety net (Public transportation, public health care, better worker’s rights and protections). In Europe there is also a much better mindset around work and it’s place in your life. Leading to a much better work life balance.

This reason is the same as everywhere in the west. Capitalism has created a massive wealth inequality where the normal person have less and less, with increasing costs they can’t afford.

Right wing parties come in and blame the immigrants as the reason for the decline. They offer simple answers rather than the hard truth that the system is inherently unfair and unjust.

The real solution is to move to a post capitalism economic system but no politicians from the mainstream parties are pushing for this as companies have to much influence and power in society.
