After more searching I found this article https://www.gingerbill.org/article/2020/05/17/relative-point...

A far pointer sounds like the global based pointer described in that article. The far pointer Wikipedia article says they are problematic but doesn't give much reasoning as to why.

Do any languages have a notion of "relative pointers"? So in the example if instead of appending "line" as ptr & len, it'd instead be appending an offset & len which could in theory be used to safely compute the actual location even with relocations.

Also apparently slower over fast connections https://arxiv.org/pdf/2310.09423

Yes, no performance difference either.

The "advantage" is tracking via the server provided connection ID https://www.cse.wustl.edu/~jain/cse570-21/ftp/quic/index.htm...

I mostly leave stuff in the bags and put them in labeled boxes by category (eg MOSFETs, drivers, etc).

Also wrote an app to track what I have in stock https://f-droid.org/packages/com.codelv.inventory/

enaml-web does this using lxml. It works fine for a limited number of concurrent users.

Simple, because I use foss.

I'm always amused when people bash on free software, then you ask if they wrote all their own software, libraries, compilers, etc.. and hear silence.

> I would love to see a successor to OpenSCAD

There is quite a few "code" CAD's around https://github.com/Irev-Dev/curated-code-cad. Cadquery has contraints but isn't really a DSL.

Given how good Horizon is, this is exciting!

Hopefully he can find a way to fix the problem of broken models due to invalid vertex/edge references on fillets/chamfers/etc.. when changing features.

This is a problem even script based programs cadquery/declaracad don't really solve.

Guessing this is due to the recent inform act?

"In the near term it would also reduce the number of targets Zig supports", I hope not but it sure sounds like it.

So I spent ~4 years writing all my embedded projects (and libraries) in Zig and now several "tier 1" supported arches are just going to be dropped?

It's your language so do whatever you want but please adjust the branding accordingly...

I've been happy with https://horizon-eda.org/

There's a web toolkit for enaml. https://github.com/codelv/enaml-web

There's an extension called cookie autodelete that does that. https://github.com/Cookie-AutoDelete/Cookie-AutoDelete

> always avoided interrupts

I'm curious... how does one achieve precise timing without interrupts?

I recently found https://commoncrawl.org/ and started working on my own personal search engine. I'm surprised how easy it is to actually get decent results with just metadata that show up nowhere in Google/DDG.

This "feature" is also a major downside... protocol level user tracking. See https://svs.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/publications/2019/2019...

ntopology uses SDFs. I believe its based on libfive.

https://github.com/codelv/enaml-web/ does exactly that

Merry Christmas!

I'm hoping that enaml-native improves some of the pain points that I had with kivy (ex. non native widgets, complicated build system, no "standard" tool integration / debugging, poor version management, "centralized" recipes). Enaml-native addresses a lot of these (or tries to). Would you mind sharing what issues you had?
