Re:I've Stopped Using Box Plots. Should You? on Sunday June 23, 2024 @06:44PM (#40771256)
Importantly, box plots are also ugly. Beauty matters.
Very cool! A next step could be to model a rolling-shutter

Thanks for the feedback!

It is definitely fixable. Take a look at https://github.com/emilk/egui/issues/996 for some examples of how others have styled egui, or try out https://app.rerun.io/

Styling is done with `ctx.set_style`, but creating a nice style isn't very easy at the moment (basically you'll have to tweak constants in code, and then recompile). I'm working on making it easier as we speak though!

Oh no! Any clues in the dev console?

egui works well on mobile except for one thing: text editing.

For app.rerun.io we mostly need to work on making the app friendly for small screens.

I think I like nr 4 the best

I don't have a plan for that right now. I'm not even sure a web page can know what the RGB pattern of the display is so it can do proper sub-pixel anti-aliasing.

I'm sort of hoping high-dpi screens will make this a moot point very soon :)

The http example at egui.rs uses the `poll_promise` crate to wait for a HTTP request: https://github.com/emilk/egui/blob/master/crates/egui_demo_a...

egui author here - thanks for the kind words

Haha, yeah, we open sourced Rerun a year ago, minus one day I guess I’ll need to update that readme

Re:Increasing Rust’s Reach on Wednesday June 28, 2017 @04:48PM (#14658226)
Some people will simply not engage in a project if there is no set code of conduct for it. The logic presumable being that even if there is no problem now, problem may come in the future, and a agreed upon code of conduct can nip such problems in the bud.
Re:Increasing Rust’s Reach on Wednesday June 28, 2017 @04:11PM (#14657837)
Many small trivial things can add up. Also, if we cater to the status quo ("the vast majority of programmers"), the status quo is less likely to change.
