Not the GP, but I recall the KeePass password manager using xdotool for its autotype feature. I struggled to get xdotool to work correctly back in 2014 on a Debian 7 personal computer. Not familiar with 'x2x' or 'xev'
Now I'm inspired to try to fill out this list... Pegasus (company's first try overall), Antares, all of the Minotaurs, Atlas 3 and 5 might count as new... Epsilon, H-2 (new?), Vega, Ariane 1, 3 & 4... And the Ariane 1…
You could probably get even better walk-able integration by connecting together multiple floors worth of hallways, one above the other. That could approach a 3D city a little bit more.
Isn't it rather precedented to do this? In most readings (that I've seen, anecdotally) of Timothy McVeigh's writings, or Hitler's Mein Kamph, people read these works specifically in the framing of a path to the…
Speaking of which, how learnable is Elm without any HTML familiarity? I more or less gave up on learning it once the (previous) Elm book started piecing together HTML tags in Elm syntax...
(Apologies if this is too much a personal anecdote for HN) Honestly, this is one of the indicators that forces my distrust of the modern family of social discourse. My own suspicions have a specific conversation in 2012…
Similar issue applies on Windows with Visual Studio's C# compiler; Tho in that case it's a terminal with a non-default starting script that adds the C# compiler, so default and that non-default terminal point CSI or CSC…
Sounds like the errors I got installing spacemacs. I think... I forced it to work by changing the access permissions on a folder that spacemacs itself had created.
Well, the tutorial itself has received translations from m68k Turbo Pascal to x86 C : https://github.com/lotabout/Let-s-build-a-compiler
http://wren.io/ Has been around HN before, as has https://fascinatedbox.github.io/lily/ Were either of these two the ones you were thinking of?
The word hypergolic doesn't mean that, but in spaceflight the term refers to a fairly specific group of compounds; Dinitrogen tetroxide and unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine or monomethylhydrazine (UDMH / MMH).
Just a couple of asides, since I was reading about these very subjects (Am-241 RTGs and outer solar system photovoltaics) a few weeks ago; The UK's NNL prototyped out a process for volume manufacture of Am-241 in 2013.…
Well, there is Shen. Static typing, I think it can do dependent typing... Doesn't have the affine types of Rust tho. Not sure how it works out to use in practice. Discussed here, for example:…
Disclaimer: Going off memory of the presentations myself, not at all an expert, etc. Ivan Goddard's descriptions of the branch predictor sounds quite simple that I can remember; The predictor itself is completely…
With the disclaimer that I don't fully understand Gamergate myself, and the following account sounds possibly incomplete, it seems like a workable summary of part of the subject.…
Well, for what it's worth, that is an impressive looking game from a solo developer. Looks better than a number of (enjoyable) games by small teams I can think of. Tho I suppose that's a small solace, against the low…
While I do agree that the case highlighted shows a rather uncharitable reaction to said personal anecdote, I suspect your advice could be turned around itself in a number of circumstances. Live and let live. Somebody…
I'm a bit curious about combining RAII or similar with dynamic types myself. It's been discussed at mild length here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9356925 If we assume some sort of object orientation, or first…
Well, I've used an unmaintained almost-vanilla-Java REPL: https://github.com/jacktasia/java-repl
Well, scriptcs sounds somewhat analogous. Similar REPL for C#, allows for packaged scripts, plays nicer with the filesystem than an IDE (which you'd expect for command-line apps). http://scriptcs.net/ Note: I've tried…
Just replicated this bug in Firefox, IE and Edge. Can't find a way to debug the problem, tho.
Brainfuck. That particular computer... Was an 8 instruction machine with a... very short data tape. It could increment / decrement numbers on the tape, move back and forth on the tape, use loop constructs to select…
As it happens, there've been a bunch over the years. Including a hardware implementation of BF, I think a stack machine at one point... At least one that was pipelined, and since I largely stopped following the scene, a…
That's not first and foremost CO2, though. Many other forms of pollution tend to be far worse to local environment. Addressing those might involve things like catalytic converters on ships and the like.
Not really contradicting you here, but DFHack for the last couple of years has worked as a shim between DF and the SDL library. Substantially simplified the process of changing the game's behaviour, and mostly…
