Yeah, the fish analogy makes sense.

I have a Wacom tablet myself and I do think it is nice to draw on, but I wonder if the surface can be improved. Would love to try possible alternatives.

I want to challenge the idea that drawing/writing on what feels like paper is subpar compared to a surface that have the pencil glide a bit more.

I always thought writing on paper is something we have to deal with because paper is.. well, the physical medium we always used because it is cheap to manufacture.

And not only for Instruction Set Architectures. I feel this might be the case for software too.

1. Want a simpler application

2. Write it

3. Realize adding complex code that's weird can really boost performance

4. Repeat 3 until someone thinks your application is overcomplicated and makes a new one

I guess the moral here is that computers are complicated and trying to avoid complexity is hard or infeasible.

Recent events really have affected how I look at the Ladybird browser.

A year ago (or some) before Andreas Kling announced the large sponsorships this all felt like a hobby project with Andreas himself even admitting that he would not expect too much of it. However, now they are actually trying to build a web-browser that will handle modern websites and web-apps.

I am truly impressed by the community and also very stoked to see how this will develop going into the next two years.

I assume this is for GNOME.

When speaking of Fedora Workstation or Fedora as a whole, then GNOME is the implied desktop environment.

Any other desktop environment is delivered via what they call "spin". I guess since you are using the Cinnamon spin, you probably already knew that, though. :)

I think you are refering to the [0] "rubberband effect". I also played this game a lot. Great memories.

Sorry, I don't know.

..there's enough that's different about the permissions structure between OS's that just a straight port wouldn't make sense.

Does this mean that the feature set of sudo for Windows can't be similar to the feature set found on sudo for *nix e.g. for BSD, MacOS, Linux..?

I just made a wrapper script that calls the script in the serenity repo (which I cloned into my home directory) and put the script in PATH e.g. in /usr/bin/ladybird. The content my script.

#!/usr/bin/env bash

cd ${HOME}/serenity && ./Meta/serenity.sh run lagom ladybird

I guess you could create a .desktop file that invokes the script, or just the "serenity.sh" script directly.

What really impressed me is how fast it changes the theme colours.

Locate the little arrow in the top right, click it and then select "Theme".

Now use your arrow keys to change the theme and see for yourself. :)

I see that you disagree with the parent comment. I would like to know why. Could you provide some details as well?

Coding experience? Wordpress is PHP based. When I did many small PHP projects, I came across CraftCMS.

Straw man much?

An interesting way to start a comment.

No one would buy tables from those carpenters...

There are companies owning large portions of markets where they can do exactly what you describe. Through market manipulation, political manipulation and probably other tactics I don`t know. This is a moral issue.

If you create something and I take that and I end up earning money off your work..

While I agree with that statement, this is not the moral issue we are discussing. We are discussing the morals of rent seeking behavior, which you shrug of as "your 1 million users will quickly become 0 users" as if that will always be the case.

I have way too many tabs, in the middle of the day I often have 40+ per window.

You can definitely use a browser that accommodates for this.

If I may ask, could another option be to try and find the root cause of why you have 40 tabs open?

Maybe the vanilla browsers out there can be sufficient for you if you solved the problem of having to many tabs open; keeping tabs to a minimum?

https://thebrowser.company/ > - We love the internet, but it can be overwhelming - What if a browser could help us make sense of it all

My response to this.

Everyone uses the internet and thus by making such statements, this company can engage a lot of people.

I think this is an example of a problem that is far less "problematic" than what this company is trying to claim

At least, I was hoping for something more "revolutionary". I have seen tabs on the left side, colours representing the workspace you find yourself in, themes and similar ways of organizing all the different websites you visit.

In the end of the day, here is my take (I would love to be proven wrong, though). This is another attempt at trying to organize all the tabs you have open. It is and not a solution to the problem they describe.

TL;DR Another fancy browser to consider.

And here I was thinking the design of the phone made total sense to me. Not overdone in any way shape or form.

Why does it need to be the best in one single metric when it can be great in many?

It is an order of magnitude faster than Python. So it is well suited for performance in many cases.

It is a lot easier to pick up than C/C++. So it is well suited for smaller programs.

I can see Go as a very good middle-ground.

Not related to Git + git-email. I just want to say that I love the way this website is structured. Also, it renders fast.

..action of a system that has complex interlinked parts.

This is such a well formulated response and I just wanted to include part of it that I feel clicked with me. If I understand correctly, one entity cant take all blame because that entity also depends on actions from another entity.

I've seen no historical evidence that any government, ever, has even attempted this "role".

It is normal where I am from. We have an entity that govern the competition and its role is to enforce competition whenever a company gains to much market share. That way us, the consumers can avoid monopolies where we would otherwise not have the voting-power within our wallets.

I still stand by my previous answer.

You export your phtoshop design as a .png file and you import it into word. There you go. Windowed desktop programs like Photoshop and Word do offer interoperability, in the form of files.

I think you are comparing apples and oranges here. Maybe if Photoshop and MS Word used the same dedicated underlying binary/application to read and process the png, then maybe it would follow the UNIX philosophy a bit closer?

Calling those meals "failures" now would be saying that it was a mistake to enjoy that time with my family and friends, and it absolutely wasn't.

If gaining weight is the failure in this context, the mistake would likely be the excessive intake of food. Time spent with friends and family would not be the mistake. This might have come off a bit harsh.

What defines an ADHD friendly tutorial?

I have ADHD. I also wonder about this.

I take my time digesting the content. Mainly this is because I process text slower than average. I always prefer short sentences. For long sentences, I split them up and interpret each part.

Books for kids are usually written with short sentences. Maybe tutorials "written for kids" might be an answer? But that sounds condescending. So maybe it is not the answer?

Finally I will add that I firmly believe this. It is more about "how you consume the content" and less about "how the content is made for you".

Are there ADHD friendly tutorials/books on Rust?

Work your way through the Rust Book, but do it slowly. It is all online. It is what I am doing right now. Here is a link for you. https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/

That is so cool. Been watching some of the youtube videos where Andreas is working on the browser and it is a joy to watch. Congrats to you Andreas!

I`ve seen so many posts and comments about Laravel and how it has made PHP a modern choice for webdev.

As someone who has written many small apps in PHP, I might dive into it and finally see what that Laravel thing is all about.

ADD here too with severe tics and anxiety. This resonates with me to some extent. Physical workout does wonders for your mentality while also making your body healthier.

I am on Aduvanz (Adderall equivalent) and it lifts me up an extra notch, or at least; is a good alternative when time is sparse. But being active is the single most important thing every person can do.

I hope doctors will push harder on exercising in the future as we see more and more "cures" in the form of pills in circulation nowadays which, in many cases; could be fixed by a little change in lifestyle.

This especially goes for people fighting obesity, insomnia and anxiety. Start using your body and your body will start healing - and your mind will too. All that with the added benefit of (if any) zero side-effects.

You don`t have to "catch up" per se. You will get into it by just watching some bits here and there. Open his youtube channel [0] and pick a video that has a title that seems interesting.

If you want to get the latest about SerenityOS, he does this "Office Hours" thing live every friday. Which might be the answer you are looking for.
