I don't know what this mostly empty page is doing but just having it open is using so much cpu time that my fans need to ramp up. I'm not inclined to browse more than that one page.

Why is it so important that it runs on the JVM?

Software is bought based on how big the vendor is, by people who will never use the software.

I'm curious to know why you think separations don't really make sense any more. Care to elaborate?
Personally I prefer anything that is restrictive, I would take the price of less flexibility for the ability to stop people doing stupid things.
Re:Seeking Developers for Paid Contract Improving Pip
on Tuesday November 12, 2019 @03:17AM (#21512446)
I would have thought dependency resolution would be a solved problem by now, given how many different projects all need to do it well.
Can anyone explain why there needs to be a new solver just for pip instead of adding support for python packages to something like libsolv[0].

Re:The Lounge – Modern cross-platform, self-hosted web IRC client
on Thursday November 08, 2018 @04:01PM (#18409989)
I'd be interested to know if anyone actually seriously uses something like this. I can't imagine there is much crossover in the irc audience and the people who would want to use a web based client. Even less so when you need to self host it.

I like Phabricator, it doesn't offer as much combustibility as Jira but the options it does have are good for software development workflows. Plus it is open source which is always a bonus

I would really like to use this as my primary browser, unfortunately Atlassian's login flow doesn't work in this browser. I suspect it is actually Atlassian at fault here but since I am forced to use Jira for work I have no choice.

Re:Show HN: Vuido builds desktop apps using Vue.js without Electron
on Saturday May 19, 2018 @06:51AM (#17107341)
I couldn't agree more. Ever since switching from Slack to wee-slack I have never run out of memory on my laptop, which used to be a problem every once in a while when running so many instances of electron.
Also Telegram (at least the Linux desktop client) is not electron, it is QT. Maybe some problems that people link exclusively to electron are not limited to just that platform.

From all the articles I have read on this, it is never mentioned if this will be in AOSP or part of Google Play Services. I really hope they allow any app to use RCS messages instead of keeping it in their own walled garden.
