What a great talk by @mako describing how #FOSS' brilliance is sometimes co-opted by the proprietary world where they succeed creating a (self-interested) market for things that communities do gratis out of kindness & trust... https://invidious.snopyta.org/watch?v=vBknF2yUZZ8
I think what I love most about it, though, is that the content of the presentation is entirely up to the speaker - so if you turn up to LambdaConf and give a presentation on how the Code of Professionalism is just a dogshit idea rather than actually talking about anything to do with structured programming, and the organisers are not only still obliged to pay you, they're also forbidden from saying anything bad about you afterwards
Moving Focus Appearance to AAA is the worst outcome. At least define very broad categories of what visible means and slide them in at AA. “A part of the focused component must have a 3:1 contrast compared to the unfocused component.” Urgh. So much wasted time in the community for an ineffective rule.
I just discovered a neat detail on GitHub and beta.flathub.org: the favicon changes depending on the preferred style. They will use a white icon when using the dark style preference, and black icon when using the light style preference
I know it's a small detail but I'm really impressed by the attention to details
Yesterday, I was going on about how I wanted this round-about way of having quick access to definitions without scrolling, sort of like an IDE.
Talking about it gave me the motivation to stop procrastinating on this and just implement the darn thing. Left is now able to locate symbol definitions and its methods and members, and draw them inline.
* Wrapper around it's power routines. * Wrappers around addition/subtraction routines adding memory management with own fastpaths * The "Strong Lucas Primality Check" with several fastpaths (including considering the Jacobi test) & a division loop * A more sophisticated wrapper around GMP random adding memory management & MPN normalization * Wrappers around MPN squareroot routines adding memory management & own fastpaths * size-in-base wrapper * Sophisticated bitwise XOR normalization
Getting back to my GNU Multiprecision studies, the next I had on my queue is MPZ, which might take a couple days to cover...
The sublibrary around this numeric datastructure includes:
* Wrappers around GMP random adding MPN normalization. * Division by power-of-two with reallocation & MPN normalization. * Wrappers around MPN division routines adding memory management & normalization, with it's own fastpath. * Swap fields of 2 MPZ structures. * Test whether a given bit in the array is set.
