Re:C vs. C#: racing VLC's Gaussian blur on Sunday October 25, 2026 @02:06AM (#50228778)
Even that depends. If you use two or more images based on same ie. official .NET image, you have only one .NET image and total images size might be lower.

Why would you want them in AOT, though? It's great for startup time and native interoperability, but it might be slower in general due to machine specific optimizations.
Re:JDK 28 on Sunday October 18, 2026 @03:04AM (#50138632)
But does AOT really help performance wise? It helps with start time, but it probably performs worse after that because of lack of CPU specific optimizations (excluding JIT time).

We need any RAM at this point.
AFAIK there was a Lyme disease vaccine, but was discontinued, probably because it wasn't effective enough, I don't remember the details.

Ha, .net does that automatically unless you really want not to - connection pooling I mean.

Uh, there are plenty of extensions. Session management perhaps? In experimental state.

Wayland intellij ide support is in the works, IDEs support X11 out of the box, but you can enable Wayland support explicitly (just search for it).

As per Windows placement, Firefox won't restore windows on original positions supposedly because of Wayland, somebody please correct me if I'm wrong.

850W is an overkill and will affect efficiency. I'd go with less power.
Holy C, no less
Wasn't that list optional, though?

Argh, my client omitted a wink smiley I've included at the end . It was meant as a joke.
Re:Docker Compose Isn't Enough on Wednesday November 13, 2024 @11:57AM (#42127732)
Huh, why not? If you aren't building huge scaling apps, then docker (compose) does the job good enough.
Re:.NET 9 Is Out on Wednesday November 13, 2024 @11:51AM (#42127678)
Are there others?

Edit: include ;-) at the end. Client filtered it out...

Yep, nothing much for average applications. It's a pity that extension properties didn't make the cut.

Well, at least they could make it easy to feedback, like a button on the artist/album page. But it's it really that hard to do it themselves? They are not getting a million albums per day, do they? I'm sure there are ways to improve the process with a little good will.
Re:I Don't Have Spotify on Tuesday November 12, 2024 @10:39AM (#42116346)
To some extent yes, but that data is usually sent from record label with the same values for different streaming services. But anyway, don't tell me that they can't at least figure out that there are more than one artists with the same name...
Re:I Don't Have Spotify on Tuesday November 12, 2024 @10:19AM (#42116120)
Don't get me started on that. How can a company which core business is content streaming be that lazy is beyond me. I often feedback them the errors, but even such feedback is difficult.
Re:I Don't Have Spotify on Tuesday November 12, 2024 @10:17AM (#42116100)
It could check the album names on both sides, for example. And in case of uncertainty, it could make a list of dubious matches. Stuff like that, I guess.
Re:I Don't Have Spotify on Tuesday November 12, 2024 @02:19AM (#42113472)
I recently made a transition from Spotify to Tidal and found the suggested transfer service to do the job really clumsy. In my case I've transferred favorite artists and the service was just trying to match them by name which failed miserably when there was more than one with the same name - seemingly it picked one randomly. I wonder how this service would do.
Re:We're forking Flutter on Monday October 28, 2024 @03:50PM (#41975393)
Exactly my thoughts. How anybody would take it seriously if the people behind are not known, is beyond me. Anyway I left flutter a long time ago exactly because the mentioned problems - ridiculously slow response time fixing bugs, like auto fill want working.
Re:Susan Wojcicki has died on Saturday August 10, 2024 @05:45AM (#41208390)
My complaint is that there isn't a family subscription option in my country. Also without Music. It's either personal with Music or damn annoying commercials. Another complaint would be non transparent and sometimes wrong censorship.

What banking software do you mean? For home use? Isn't browser based good enough?

Author said he was using KVM switch, hence multiple computers. Also you can't install macOS on a PC. Also you might need switching between OS in real time and often. Just some thoughts.
Re:Music for Programming on Thursday April 25, 2024 @02:06PM (#40161011)
I simply fire up [insert music streaming provider of your choice] set one of my favorite (possibly Scandinavian) death metal bands and let it play.
All that remains now is domestic and allies surveillance forcing it to do things it doesn't want to.
Re:The Most Compelling Reason to Use Firefox Is Sync That Works on Thursday December 28, 2023 @10:43AM (#38794517)
How is this working nowadays? A few years back it wasn't exactly easy to self host. Ideally there would be a docker image and a docker compose config.
