Application toolkits will eventually drop support for X11. GTK will remove it in GTK5. Not sure what Qt's plans are, but I'd have to think X11 support is long for this world there as well.
GNOME is an outlier and not indicative of general trends. They pretty much do what they want, as a silo, ignoring the larger ecosystem. They want you to use their software stack all the way through.
Quite. I don't think it's unreasonable to expect someone to check the issue tracker before blogging and I don't think Andrew's response was at all problematic.
I'd say the only issue what the "too dumb, but whatever" comment.
That should have been removed and it would have been totally reasonable.
Edit: Oh actually, the author has another blog post titled "I'm too dumb for Zig ...". With that context, it makes sense and I agree it's a reasonable response. I'm sure other readers like me didn't know that context though.
> In his announcement on Friday, Rubio said: "Before the PLO and PA can be considered partners for peace, they must consistently repudiate terrorism - including the October 7 massacre - and end incitement to terrorism in education, as required by U.S. law and as promised by the PLO."
I'm assuming that the Saudi Arabian congregation got visas. State-sponsored terrorism is OK if it's 9/11 or the killing of Jamal Khashoggi, but not in this case. The US is truly a vassal state for Israel and Saudi Arabia.
I don't think you've used Ghostty in a while. It has auto installing terminfo when ssh-ing.
Also, every program ever depends on a certain version of a compiler, so I don't understand this complaint. Ghostty requires Zig 0.14. That's it, not a specific compiler hash. blueprint-compiler is packaged for pretty much every distribution these days.
Electron is bringing an entire web browser in to provide a cross-platform user interface. GTK has become almost a web browser to provide a cross-platform user interface. That is why I started off with
Their CSS implementation is broader than what most actual browsers had 10 years ago. I would not have commented if I weren't already painfully familiar.
1Password has tons of features. No two vendors have exactly the same data model. Any of them might break on migration or worse, doesn’t exist on the target system.
For example, are my 2FA seeds going to migrate properly? How about the tags, attachments, sections, subsections, security questions and answers, inline Markdown notes, the HIBP integration, built-in overrides to fix known broken websites, workarounds I’ve learned for unfixed websites, shared vaults, recovering lost access to shared vaults, syncing, templates, custom integrations that I maintain [0], personal scripts, etc. etc.
Will it still be able to auto-fill into a web page? Into shitty, broken web pages? On Linux? On my Linux phone?
At the scale and depth at which 1Password is currently integrated into my spouse’s and my life, it’s difficult to consider migration anything less than a full weekend project.
I regret letting my spouse and myself lock into 1Password before it enshittified.
