GTK and Qt exists. They’re multi-platform, so you don’t even need to port.

I think we will first see a batch of alternative apps, which either will get shut down by manufacturers etc., or get tolerated as an alternative.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Esoteric Programming Languages: Rockstar, Tabloid, Baby Language, Ook!, Chef
1·9 days agoI have an idea for an eso lang, called Greentext, where you write little programs as greentext story, scope indentation is
, and exception handling is done by typing> my parents beat me up.

(Is there any sane alternative to SQL?)
What is the rubber duck used for? Is it like the seashells in Demolition Man?

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Its actually because I'm a noob 😓
13·13 days agoRight-wing chuds within the open-source community be like “um, ackchually, Lunduke said that it’s capitalism to make your code open source, because it’s not state mandated”.
My country (Hungary) already has too many kids not wanting to learn languages, because Google Translate.
Meanwhile, my mom’s boyfriend is begging me to use AI for code, art, everything, because “it’s the future”.
At least it won’t be like that infamous Hungarian teacher
cw: awful human being making awful analogies
There was some engineering professor in Hungary, who was convinced rape did not exist and women just made up to control men, and used a shot glass to prove it, by asking his students to try to put their fingers into it while moving it around quickly. Allegedly, just before he got fired, someone took a toy gun in for that analogy, then his head got red and stopped his analogy.
The double deckers are an example of a ready-made solution in the original language’s standard library, the lower one is getting multithreading working through the C ABI bindings, using some 3rd party solution, all while multithreading a lot of other tasks in the application.
Nah, those are double deckers.

14·19 days agoOh, so you’re using “gatekeeper” linguo. So much for the “everyone’s welcome in the Rust community” mantra!

1·19 days agoOkay, it seems like SDL does actually use
EV_SYNfor signaling reasons.

Programming@programming.dev•Is there any way to fix libevdev's locking issues?
1·19 days agoDid some digging iin those libraries, apparently all just using the standard
read()function instead of the libevdev one, and I have yet to see anything aboutEV_SYN, maybe this way you don’t have to bother with it.

Linux@programming.dev•Rust For Linux Kernel Co-Maintainer Formally Steps Down
1026·20 days agoIf only there were a few alternatives to Rust for system development with a syntax that isn’t a marriage of flesh between OCaml and C. Unfortunately none exists, because if I say otherwise, rustacerans will accuse me of “FUDposting”, and some will even try to dig up some dirt about me, to ruin my life and to ultimately force me off the web, because shame is good, except if they’re the target of said shame.
So we’re left with a language that:
- Was marketed as a functional programming language until people started to “FUDpost” about how functional programming has its own issues (optimization, etc.), so the Rust team quickly tried to course correct and market it as a “multi paradigm” language. It is “FUD” if you ask why it’s still const by default. If only Oracle found out about this tactic, to market Java as a “multi paradigm programming language”, because you can just “opt out from OOP aspects”, then tell its usiers that “packaging classes are just good practice”.
- Makes many optimizations very ugly if not impossible.
- Makes memory unsafe operations ugly, to “disintensivise the programmer from them”.
- Has a pretty toxic userbase, which is only being called out by Lunduke-style toxic morons with anti-woke brainrot, and for the wrong reasons. No, the problem isn’t that many people in the Rust community are often trans, and that the code of conduct aren’t a selection of Bible-verses, but that a portion of Rust users weaponize callouts, with this callout weaponization actually coming from 4chan and other sites that pioneered networked harassment.
Advertising, and Apple buying up some professional software to discontinue their non-Apple versions (as well as disabling customization as “they know better than the users”) made it equal with “professionalism”.
Replace the macbook with a beaten up Thinkpad with 4th-5th gen Intel CPU, then it’s more realistic.
Is that Matt Walsh?

I must be hallucinating here. It clearly states a lot of OSes, but maybe it’s just me.
