Why do people keep saying “UI/UX”?
UI is user interface.
UX is user experience.
One is to be developed (with code), and the other is to be designed (in Figma for instance). They have very little overlap!

What if the system does not have libc?
No offence but I think I need to stop discussing with you.


It’s not something you try to recite. You just do it so many times you became too good at it to look at the table.
Four bits can represent up to 15, from 0000 to 1111. Correspondingly, 0 to F in hex.
Binary from right to left is 1, 2, 4, 8.
One byte is eight bits. It takes eight digit places.
XXXX XXXX
0000 0000 to 1111 1111
00 to FF
0 to 255


What you mentioned is compatibility across platforms. A program written in C is also guaranteed to run on all the systems you mentioned, given that the system has a C compiler and libc that stick to the standard. You, the programmer, does not have to anything to “make sure” your program works.
See this insane list of platforms GCC supports.

We’ve invented high-level programming languages like C 53 years ago, just to get away from assembly, and to avoid dealing with the “cross-platform” problem you mentioned, remember?


You are comparing it to Eclipse. I also give you that.


VS Code is a good software? I beg to differ. It’s slow. It’s messy to look at. It’s resource hungry.
If you think VS Code is a good editor, we can make an even better editor in another language.


But why Node? Node cost five seconds just to start up back when I worked on my embedded ARM v7 platform, and on modern x86_64 computers, npx anything takes just as long. Why rely on another runtime? Why not native binaries instead?


Not determine, but allows. C is a shitty language too. Linux is great because Linus bars off shitty contributors.


I’m 100% sure I can make Rust code (not even compiled to WASM) run natively in a browser like Firefox, given I have enough will power, time, energy, and money. The problem is getting everyone else to agree to this new standard.


OK, how is this related to “opensource” lemmy community? DisplayPort is not an open standard.


It’s more expensive than what it is really worth years ago, among many other problems. It was a cheap and reliable programming platform when it was Raspberry Pi 1.


Is this your post?

You probably shall not ask the same question twice in such a short duration. It wastes server resource and reader’s time on duplicated material.
Have you tried searching on the internet? “Is there an open source alarm program” is not a question. It’s a query, which you should just input into Google and such. If it finds nothing good for you, we won’t either. We’re not better than search engines.
Imagine every one just makes a post with “Is there an open source XYZ program?” but with “XYZ” replaced with a random feature, this community would become a garbage collection site in one day. I’m sure that is not what you want to see either. Please don’t do that.
However, as a community, we’re happy to discuss a project that is already open source, or a closed source program about to get open sourced.
Writing your own program, and potentially if you’re considering making it open source? Great. There are programming communities too. Also try website like StackOverflow.

What? I heard they were putting out good money to hire COBOL developers to maintain their old banking systems.


If you look at only the rating in number then the gaming industry suffers the same problem as the movie industry. You have to read in-depth review of it to determine the chance of you liking it.
People still talk about old movies twenty years ago. The original Hollow Knight is still being discussed by the community, especially now that Silksong is out, and the two stories connect. Gameplay-wise, Silksong has not only one, but six sets of play styles (crest). Imagine the contents to experience.
But of course you don’t have to experience all these if it’s not your cup of tea. Just saying you don’t have to invalid someone else’s preference.


I don’t care about the story, but when I played it when it was free on PS Plus, the gameplay is bad to me as I constantly get lost in the building. The protagonist has superpower but in the game it really doesn’t feel like so. I can throw stuff at enemies, then what? There is a fight where in the beginning I fight two or three enemies with guns, and it sucked because I don’t know where they are when I’m hiding behind cover. And taking two or three shots I’m dead. It’s a shitty FPS game in disguise of a Sci-Fi action game.


“People didn’t like it?” Who, and how many percent? Most people enjoyed Hollow Knight also enjoyed Silksong.


OK, hyped, yes, but by who? I bet 90% of the people who hyped it and bought it ended up enjoying it. And that’s justified. Not over hyped. What OP was thinking of Silksong is probably media exposure.


It’s a momentum from early 2000s. Rockstar (or was it Take 2 by that time?) set a lower moral line in the gaming industry and published games like Man Hunt and GTA III, where you can commit crime without much consequences. The gaming experience was nouveau and a thrill.
All you executives letting the developer do the designer’s job to cost saving is why we end users often get bad user experience in the first place.
Before you guys down vote on me or make more comments like this, know that there are lots of full-time user experience designers out there, who don’t know anything about programming. They don’t get paid for doing nothing.
