That's only HTML but when it is loaded in chromr it is more than 40 MiB.

To be fair. this HN thread useees 40-70 MB of ram in Chrome.

Genious. Post link to paywalled article!

It was blocking me from accessing GNOME's gitlab instance from my cell phone.

So it mistakedly flagged me as bot. IDK. And it forces legitimate users to wait a while. Not great UX.

Oh, sweet summer child.

Yes, there are so many so called developers in backend field of work who do not know how to do basic SQL. Anything bigger than s9imple WHERE clause.

I wouldn't even talk about using indexes in database.

Article is just whining! Author didn't investigate what caused an issue.

Only bug I've noticed -- you can move through doors before they fully opened. (using keyboard and mouse mode)

I've noticed that pathfinding works on mobile mode!

I was impressed that it is present there. I would expect camer to fly directly to target location.

I really liked art style!

Looks great with minimum textures :)

Great job!

That was a point, for player to notice code.

Brut-forcing won't be fun.

To be honest I didn't notice glyphs at first.

Wow. I didn't know that Seedship is available in browser.

Played it on Android long time ago.

Nope, but there is cafeteria :-P

With that art direction you can release game on Steam!

There are some games made in JS with Electron.

And I wish your team luck with your consultancy bussines and making interactive experiences.

But I think you can achieve something in game dev as well!

That's amazing!

And it weights only 45 MiB! How did you achieve this? And most of it is sounds, what looks like.

It's built with babylonjs?

I'm thinking on this for second day, and this though can't leave my head.

It sounds like sexism. And thous I think it's bad name. It continues ringing the bell for me.

To be honest, I don't see why it is advertised here at this stage. I appreciate effort, but project is too young and unable to do any serious plugin. I guess it is try to get new contributors on board?

I see that project on github started few months ago. Isn't it too early to adwertise it to the world?

But it already have fancy website with modern styles and so on. But it lacks good documentation.

Article says that docs have "dozens of examples in different languages", but it just have dozen languages and helloworld in them.

And basically examples are just simple function call from host to plugin. Operating on strings/basic types, and JSON.

That's not what we want from plugins. Wee need some way to expose Host API some way, perhaps in OOP fashion. To let plugin interract with host app, perhaps even change UI.

But not of examples show that, how to pass at least basic functions into plugin.

As I understand it comes with it's own HTTP stack, presumably implemented in Rust. This can be used as starting point to make your own macro processor that would be able to expose API for plugins, and then dogfoof this codegen for your own HTTP lib.

And passing JSON around is not thing that is needed. With same success IPC could be used, with relatively similar performance.

We need proper marshaling.

There much work to be done, sadly. That's big endeavor.

Well, I hope this project would grow in something good, but it's in really early stage.

And I am so confused, that nobody is bothered with it, and so many users of whatsapp.

I really distrust Signal for it forcing to add contacts only by phone, not hy sone user ids/nick-names

If you read last mail, it states clearly, that they don't want parents to buy android for their kids, and iMessage would be lock-in.

because who would want a phone that doesn't have WhatsApp?

Me!

I hate whatsapp ui. And not having desktop app. Tend to use Telegram, and Viber as last resort, to talk with elderly family and with businesses(when ordering something online).

Vibr sucks as well, but not as much as WA.

Really nice features announced. I guess it can be adopted by other editors.

That's a bummer that it is Mac only, no Linux support, and even Windiws!! WTF?

And ideally it could be opensource)

I hope new tools would emerge, that implement this ideas.

If it's main purpose was deterrence, then why put in prison people who killed soneon by accident? Not murder but manslaughter. And person is really sorry for that act and would do anything to be sure it to not happen again.

In contrast, serving sentence in prison may change their personality.

So as I see it: it's revenge + lesson to people outside, to not commit crime.

It looks like crap on FireFox

their book of allergens to the table

Wow, they have book of allergens?

Is that with list of dushes from specific restoraunt? Or ith general reference book?

Never saw that in my country. I guess we don't use these. If you have allergy you are just screwed.

In my country they bring in the receipt first, and let you take a look at it. Perhaps negotiate with your peers who pays what amount and so one.

And than in 10 minutes waiter arrive with hand held POS.

I agree. If you know that you want to use Linux on it. You should support honest vendor with money, not one who is actively against you.

By the way, I am reading and replying not using desktop, but using Android phone :-)

But you are right -- modern desktops are using a GPU heavily. For worse or best(10-15 years ago everything worked without GPU help and compositors. Was not as fancy looking).

P.S. I like how HN works on mobile. And how lightweight it is. Made by real hacker wizards, of long lost arcane knowledge of the webcraft!

By the way. I don't know anything about ARM laptop. I know that there are some models. But have no idea how it is going.

I guess having another option won't hurt, and would increase applications adoption.

To be honest: supporting such uniform hardware as Apple's is way easier than supporting bunch of different vendors. So this is doable, if won't be one-man project.

But you are partially correct. If people can concentrate on other, more mainstream and easier to fix hardware, it would be more beneficial for comunity in general.

But people is doing it for free, and getting fun. So that's their choice.

My two cents (i'm not one who was downvoting).

Reasons to do it: 1. Enthusiasts are having fun 2. They increase their skill in Linux driver development 3. This can generate patches usable by ARM linux in general, not only viable for Apple hardware.

If she manages to succeed, perhaps with help of others, then we have Linux desktop there. Linux gaming and 3D acceleration wasn't always a thing, and people were still using Linux.

But I agree that apple hardware would still be hostile, and not sure if it is worth it. VM can be used with same success. People who by new macs should be ready to be vendor locked.

But to extend this topic.

Many parts of x86 linux drivers are community developed. Either by individuals, or by companies as RedHat. Yes major hardware vendors, like Intel and AMD makes sure that chipset and CPU are supported, but many motherboard vendors and laptop ones don't give a damn. As far as I know Realtek gigabit ethernet chip was community driven driver.

And most printer drivers are not from vendors.

Now I am curious to search statistics, how much of drivers are made by vendors?

But generally, there is still a problem, that person decide to try linux, and their hardware is unsupported on x86. Laptops especially.

I tend to check linux compatibility first, even if I don't use Linux regularly(actually going to switch soon). I've used linux for a while on my DELL laptop, and experience was great. But my daily driver is windows desktop. Going to try it out. Hope my Wacom tablet would work in Linux, as from my research Wacom is best shot for L.

There's an internal google plus instance whose culture is kind of like a mix of Facebook and Twitter

So they maintain google plus code, but shut down it for general public?
