@TerribleMaps It's Trogdoria, but missing its easternmost province.

It's getting there. I'm building a console based #DAW . It's git for audio! Check it out, suggest features that you miss! It has a cool shell already. gitlab.com/iso88592/mixDI…

@SandyofCthulhu Easy as EGA is binary coded BGR + intensity. I made an OBS filter for CGA dithering, it's pretty cool. I might make it Tandy compatible. github.com/iso88592/obs-c…

All I can say is every computer developer I know was desperate to be allowed to move onto VGA. Zero of us preferred EGA. Also, it's more complicated than CGA, EGA, VGA, because there was also Tandy graphics. Tandy was the proprietary 16-color system for the Radio Shack computers. It was 16 colors, like EGA, but they were a DIFFERENT 16 colors. It was kind of insane. In 1992, we went to a convention, in which we were showing off MicroProse's new games, which worked on IBM and VGA (everyone was pushing Amiga at the time) and a man in a business suit rushed up and pumped our hands, and nearly broke into tears, so grateful that we were supporting the IBM. Also an Amiga fan got mad that we were doing so. Because he wanted the IBM to die. Anyway, below are the palettes for the Tandy and the EGA but I'm not saying which is which. Do you know?

@tswain555 @IamAroke Processes may or may not run in parallel. There were processes way before multicore existed.

@IamAroke Hi from Cowtown; A Process runs in an isolated memory space. Threads run in the same memory space beneath a Process. Processes run in parallel. Threads may or may not.

what's actually the difference between a process and a thread?

@ibuildthecloud I recently had to run Lazarus IDE. I'm on hyprland, but a massive fan of XFCE. So I started Xephyr and ran XFCE inside it.

Nothing beats XFCE. Prove me wrong.

I'm assembling a team

@NoelaBlack @grok ez igaz?

Ennek az oldalnak is nagy hibája, hogy bemondásra bármit elhisznek, és sosem kérdezik meg, hogy "erre bizonyíték?"

@ibuildthecloud I start by manually coding gherkin tests, defining the step definitions myself. Then it's capable of producing new test cases pretty well, but I always review the new tests. They are like 90% accurate, the rest is fixed easily.

I'm not kidding. Has anyone seen a unit test that AI has written that provided any value whatsoever? This is truly fascinating how useless they are.

@RetroTechChris I think it's missing a low cut filter 🤣

This might just be the strangest sound card design I have ever seen! Guessing they were designing this to be an "angled" PCB, then changed their mind at the last minute 😂

@icebalm @LeoVasanko @RetroTechChris I really don't understand how people do NOT know this especially if they know it is an ISA card.

@LeoVasanko @RetroTechChris That was common, it was meant for CD-ROM drives. Some motherboards only had one IDE connector, so adding another to the sound card was a fairly big selling point.

@TerribleMaps Actually on a globe you can draw a straight line that connects all five. It's just really long.

Believe it or not, Germany’s 5 largest cities lie perfectly on a 4th-degree polynomial

@suni_code Easy. Fire the developer. Oh, this wasn't an HR question?!

Git Interview question: A developer accidentally pushed directly to the main branch, bypassing code review. How do you prevent this from happening again?

@krishdotdev Finally a bait I can actually relate to. Python's ecosystem is abysmal.

I hate python I hate python3 I hate pip3 I hate pip I hate venv Why can't they just come up with normal version and package manager for god's sake. This is ridiculous.

@NainsiDwiv50980 "click on login" Login works. Test passes. User tries to click login. Oh, that's actually impossible because something is blocking access to it.

🚨 Breaking: Alibaba just killed the browser automation stack. **page-agent.js** — a GUI agent that lives directly inside your webpage. No Selenium. No Puppeteer. No Chrome extension. No Python backend. Just one script tag. It reads your DOM as text (no screenshots, no multimodal BS), brings your own LLM, and executes natural language commands like "fill out this form" or "click login" — right inside the page. The use cases are genuinely insane: → Ship an AI copilot in your SaaS in literally lines of code → Turn 20-click ERP/CRM workflows into one sentence → Make any legacy web app accessible via voice or natural language 12k stars. MIT licensed. Built on top of browser-use internals — but without any of the setup overhead. This is what "AI-native UX" actually looks like in practice Link in comments👇

@nafonsopt Just use Fedora or some other distro that just works. Bad take, engagement farming. You should be ashamed.

For anybody saying "Just use Linux", you need to realise that Linux is worse than Windows. Windows has all the bloat, and while you can have Linux without any of that you still don't have tools like Remedybg, RAD Debugger and Super Luminal. Once you have such tools, then Linux is a suitable app development environment. But _it is still trash_ because of the whole Linux model of you needing to compile everything. The fact that you cannot run an app built using a newer version of glibc is an insane decision. I shouldn't have to upgrade my whole machine in order to run something built on a newer version. I shouldn't be worried that an upgrade will break my machine. I shouldn't be forced to compile things from scratch to work on my machine. I shouldn't be forced to install N packages, I just want self contained binaries I can just download and run. I shouldn't be forced to develop with an old distro to have "max glibc compatibility". I shouldn't have to worry about X11 / Wayland / Window Managers. I shouldn't have to worry about asking the user to select a folder, display a dialog or show notifications. Linux is such a huge waste of potential, if they got their shit together they would completely obliterate Windows. I first got into Linux in 2000, and even back then there was this "it will take over Windows any time now!". It's been _26 years_! The same way I'd pay quite a lot for Windows without any bloat, I'd be willing to pay for a distro that gives me all this.

@binarybits AnÞ

People have started abbreviating Anthropic as "Ant" and I don't like it. The th is a single phoneme. You shouldn't split it up like that.

@devops_nk It's always selinux

Your Docker image works locally but fails in production. What could be the most common reason ?

@starboy_abefe I write code in Latin. metacpan.org/dist/Lingua-Ro… Here students start to write code in their own language. Then when they get more proficient, they need to switch to English when naming things.

Honest question. People who English is not their first language… how do they code?? Do Germans code in German? Do Arabs code in Arabic??
