The more you know, I had totally missed this.
In Dart if you want to narrow down a nullable final class variable, it is not enough to do if (value == null) { // value is still nullable here } instead you need to first capture the value final value = this.value if…
You could create a trigger that always keeps the value the same unless user has privileges to change it. Or alternatively the RLS rule could check if the column is being updated and abort the call if it is. I’m using a…
It is absolutely true still, it is especially bad on iOS and the worst when you have a ProMotion device. They did hard lock the max fps to 80fps on scrollable elements on ProMotion devices, which really is telling…
That Compose Multiplatform interoperability with the native views and other way around looks really nice, especially because it matches how SwiftUI deals with UIKit/AppKit interop. However, at this point it is hard to…
I'm working on an app that is running on the latest version of Flutter with Impeller enabled. The performance seems good as long as you do not embed platform views inside a list. However, when you drop even a single…
Flutter apps have god awful performance when there is even a single platform view on the screen. In effect this means that if the app is monetized by ads, have any video, map embed or anything of the sort, it will have…
Is there any solid proof of this? It seems that Flutter is not used in any notable apps and React Native is used even by the big players in the field. I have yet to see a single high quality app made with Flutter and…

This is also holds true in Finland. UHT milk is sold in Supermarkets but it's not something that people regularly consume. I personally haven't seen it served anywhere in the past decade.
Yeah, but the point was that there is without a doubt more Linux instances running on ARM than there is Intel CPUs in total. Then even from the Intel processors that do have Minix, a sizable amount is running Linux.…
This keeps getting repeated, but I don’t understand how that would lead to it being the most popular OS there is. There is way more embedded systems than there is Intel CPUs on the market and they often run Linux.…
Upstart was started before sytemd unlike Mir and Unity (in comparison to Wayland and Gnome 3) and it's creator having come in support of systemd[1], Ubuntu's upstream, Debian, going with it and on top of that…
Kaveri is also finnish for a friend.
>Chromebooks aren't GNU/Linux. It does use glibc and many other common software found in GNU/Linux systems. I'd say it's a GNU/Linux system.
glibc is under GPLv2 and I find it to be the defining piece of GNU/Linux system. The coreutils are under GPLv3 and therefore projects like Tizen use pre-GPLv3 version of such software. So parts of GNU ecosystem are…

True: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-intel/com... Intel is the most active company in Wayland developement too.

systemd is hardly monolithic as it is build of over 80 binaries. A normal system with systemd runs at least four processes: systemd (PID1), systemd-udev, systemd-journald and systemd-logind. There's various smaller…
systemd-logind doesn't use code from consolekit. It has been written from scratch. ConsoleKit itself has been unmaintained for a long time.
systemd manages cgroups on systemd based system. The systems that do not use systemd can implement their own cgroup managers. The kernel makes no assumptions on what manager you use on userspace. Other managers could…
