yeah, it's a typo :-)

I am wondering if, with memory and storage prices skyrocketing, there will be more effort on making computing use less resources?

Unlikely. If you can't afford RAM, how can you afford the SaaS contracts that keep devs employed?

Sure, but the whole point of self-hosting forgejo is to not use these big cloud solutions. Introducing cloudflare is a step back!

I'm so fascinated by replies like this, it's too random and nonsensical to be a language barrier issue, but it also does not pattern match into LLM generated text. Reminds me of ~2010 era wordpress comment spam.

The table lists very limited support for M1 and not even lists newer variants! I guess it was only to be expected, asahi Linux also has challenges and of course FreeBSD has less eyeballs than Linux

Linux is pretty much good to go on M1 or even M2 now. No joy on anything newer than that though.

Is Asahi Linux alive?

They just posted a progress report this month. Seems very much alive.

Me three! mjd fanboy here

All browsers ever implemented was XSLT 1.0, from 1999. There were 2.0 and 3.0 for which there is an open source Java based implementation (Saxon) but this never made it into libxslt and/or browsers!

I think this is not too weird? I write text messages all day on my phone. Every holiday I keep a dairy of my travel in a Google doc. While I prefer a proper keyboard I also appreciate the way I can just type some stuff on my phone while in a bus or waiting for a train, or at night in my hotel room. This adds up to significant documents. And then indeed I prefer the writing over mindlessly ‘consuming content’.

The project got a grant from NLnet. I think they do a great job, they gave grants to many nice projects (and also some projects that are going nowhere, but I guess that is all in the game). NLnet really deserves praise for what they are doing!! https://nlnet.nl/thema/NGI0CommonsFund.html

Plus TIOBE had Perl enter the top 10 suddenly this year but I do not see any new developers. And Ada too! Where are all those Ada programmers?

Keeping 7 Ada vendors in business, one of the few areas where developers actually pay for tooling.

It's more like people in golf suits agree on corruption schemes rather than actual devs making decisions.

Which nonetheless reveals it is more relevant than others.

That’s a C++ URL parser library, has nothing to do with the programming language.

You want gcc-ada for the programming language.

>>Perl enter the top 10 suddenly this year but I do not see any new developers.

Perl is almost as active as Javascript. And more useful than Python.

I write Perl to do all sorts of thing every week. Its strange its not in the top 5 list.

You're joking right?

If you look at programming language list- Apart from Python, Java. Most are targeted to specific platforms(databases, browsers, embedded systems) or tech(SQL for database).

The general purpose programming languages today are still- Python, Java, and Perl. Make whatever of this you will.

Larry Wall at one point said, if you make something very specific to a use case(like awk, sed, php etc), it sort of naturally starts to come out of general purpose use.

Its just that Kotlin, Rust, Go, SQL, Julia, SQL, Javascript etc. These are not general purpose programming languages.

That was an active debate ... 15 years ago

And who started Gnome Desktop! That always strikes me as funny. That he made the ultimate tool for in the terminal, and then move on to write a desktop environment

It was kind of the evolution of the time though. We were coming from dumb terminals hooked up to VAX/VMS and Ultrix boxes with kermit, to computers that had a tcp/ip stack and could actually do graphics.

And now porting Godot to iPads as Xodot. https://xogot.com/

Wow, I have absolutely no need for access to a game engine but I still will do the free trial. Some complaints about cost but $3 per week or $30 per year seems reasonable enough. I am a fan of the Swift Playground.

Starting when I wrote the Chess program that Apple distributed on their Apple II demo cassette tape, I have been interested in writing games for fun. Unfortunately, while I can code, I need artists and generally people with ‘game design style’ to do anything decent - I had that when I worked at Angel Studios.
