Keyboard Matrix Help

www.dribin.org/dave/keyboard/one_html

It took me a bit to figure this out, partly due to the fact of no really good explanation of it. So, I'm going to have a crack at it. Basically, I wanted to understand how keyboard matrices work. Specifically, I wanted to know why keyboard "ghosting" and "masking" happen, and how to prevent them.

All you need to know. That's a relic of the past century!

Chris's Wiki :: blog/web/VeryOldIfModifiedSince

This feed fetcher was sending an If-Modified-Since HTTP header, but it had a rather striking value of 'Wed, 01 Jan 1800 00:00:00 GMT'. Naturally this doesn't match any Last-Modified value my feed has ever provided, and it wouldn't help if I used a time based comparison since all syndication feeds in the world have been changed since 1800.

Digital encoding. Legacy software. Evolution.

250bpm.com/blog:89

We’ve finally got to the point in the software world where no big changes are possible. Every change breaks something, introduces backward incompatibilities and so on. More are more we are going to live in the world where software mutates gradually, advancing is small steps without much plan and intelligent design. Similarly to how organisms are dragged by natural selection, it is going to be propelled in unknown direction without asking us whether we like it or not.

The software industry is reaching the stage where it cannot be revolutionized heavily, it is to evolve like the living ones. It is not necessarily good.

Come back, c2.com, we still need you | Hacker News

news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35948268

From a discussion of how the newest version of the first wiki sucks. The version does suck, by the way.

I am blind. I do rely on accessibility to interact with a computer. Yes, you could accuse me of deliberately avoiding the modern web, but I have my reasons. Primary reason is performance. Even though I feel like you are talking down to me from a pretty high horse, I still don't wish for you to ever experience how sluggish it feels trying to use the "modern web" with a screen reader on something like Windows. Don't even make me start about the hellhole that is Linux GUI accessibility. It was a nice ride once, before GNOME 3 and the elimination of CORBA killed most of the good work done by good people. Fact is, I am too used to a system which reacts promptly when I press a key to be able to switch to a modern browser by default. That would kill all my productivity. Yes, its a trade, but for now, having no JS engine by default is still way better then the alternatives.

Have a nice day, and enjoy your eye-sight.

platform stability — sourcehut lists

lists.sr.ht/~rabbits/uxn/%3C16547614410.357889%40mail.networkname.de%3E

A thread in the uxn's mailing list. Felix asks about uxn's stability, Devine says it will be stable soon enough, and this:

Don't think of a Varvara as a platform just yet, at best, it's something that can inspire others to explore their own ideas of how a VM can be used to preserve their own projects. There is very little experimentation done in this space and it's sort of in the research phase right now.

Links like this can discourage you from learning uxn. They do not discourage me, though. The Summer streams of 2022 are a proof.

I don't want to go to Chel-C

applied-langua.ge/posts/i-dont-want-to-go-to-chel-c.html

A classic rant on uxn and programming. Uxn is done for.

Uxn says it's about permacomputing and vintage computing, the author of the article says it's not and proves it.

The author insists on a relation to permacomputing. Their page on permacomputing describes frugal computing and salvage computing as principles of permacomputing, defining them as "utilizing computational resources as finite and precious, to be utilised only when necessary, and as effectively as possible", and "utilizing only already available computational resources, to be limited by that which is already produced." The author is part of a collective that wanted to replace all the "bloated" software they used, due to having little energy storage on their sailboat. Using software design techniques to reduce power usage, and to allow continued use of old computers is a good idea, but the uxn machine has quite the opposite effect, due to inefficient implementations and a poorly designed virtual machine, which does not lend itself to writing an efficient implementation easily.

Devine then mentioned it, and a discussion followed.

Киллер-фич зига три, на мой взгляд

  1. Тотальный контроль работы с памятью, намного более гранулярный, чем в C (аллокатор из коробки не один, их много, они разные, можно делать свои и передавать их другим программам)

  2. Минимум имплицитного поведения, то есть всё максимально явно описывается в языке

  3. Compile Time metaprogramming, то есть компилятор во время компиляции может исполнять код, при этом само понятие "тип" это просто объект языка, с которым можно поступать так же как с числами, или структурами.

How do I know if I really need object oriented programming?

unixsheikh.com/articles/how-do-i-know-if-i-really-need-object-oriented-programming.html

It's easy to determine if you really need the object oriented paradigm, you just need to look for the things that you can only do with object oriented programming and then ask yourself whether you really need that. It's called "The Three Pillars of Object-Oriented Programming". If you don't use all three at the same time, then you're not doing object oriented programming and you don't need it.
