The problem with Web Standards is that they’re so complete, broad and complex that it’s very hard as an independent team to get started writing a browser.

You’d have so little daily active users compared to the titans products (Chromium, Gecko, WebKit) that even if you made something super good, it would still be hard to guarantee website compatibility without faking the user-agents.

There’s also a lot of complexity involved in writing a sandbox for every instance of a website (tabs or iframe) and sharing information between multiple process. I don’t know how they do it in Chrome, but in Firefox they have a whole specification language for that which compiles to C++.

You also have to recreate the DevTools and other tooling for developers to adopt your browser and for you to debug any issues with your DOM renderer…

I love how much the web has to offer nowadays with technologies like WebRTC, WebSocket, Blobs, GamePad API, modern CSS3 but it has also the effect of locking us down into a tiny ecosystem.

I really their should be legislation on what companies can do with their browser because they’ve become such an important piece of the internet so they should serve public good.

I don’t know how to make it happen and I don’t even know if it’s a good idea when you consider the governance issues it would bring for open-source project.

I’m really passionate about this technology !

What ?! Already a power boost / gen-gap to fill?

Yesterday I finished the badlands race and when she dropped me off, she hit me with the car…

I don’t need bigger game I just want Shakespearian spectacular quest and events, gripping storylines, and endearing character.

You could have a tiny map full of passion and I would love the game.

Micro-blogging didn’t click for me, it’s just so much less exciting than the forum format of Reddit / Lemmy :)

Yeah I bought a MacBook Air to replace my old beatmaking Windows computer. I’m loving it!

You’re so right! Vision by itself can only do so much if it’s not helped with expertise. To be totally transparent I’m not super convinced by VR virtual worlds. I feel like Lemmy is a great “universe” because it’s interoperate and it really gives it the independence that a true universe need to have!

The metaverse will not be built by a company but will emerge from a universal, accessible technology.

Terraria has all the ingredients of a great game:

• passionate developers
• great progression
• great gameplay
• great bosses
• the sense of discovery and excitement is profound and enthralling
• you dont need a good PC to run it

Every game tries to be the next big thing but they all seem to fail to understand that what made games like Minecraft so great was their portability/runnability !

Star Citizen is a prime example of that: tries so hard to be great, 99% of people can’t run it. It doesn’t matter. On the other hands: Terraria is a complete experience that has been gradually extended/improved/optimized and can run on almost any PC.

I’m looking for contradiction because I see no evidence of my take being wrong. That’s also how League of Legends got so big: you could install it on high school PC lol

Sekiro truly did that to me, especially the boss rush where I took a chug of water before getting started and got into the flow zone for the next hour.

How do you manage the macro for example ?

I need to get back to Florent to ask him about his advances but this is the repo he worked on! Seems pretty exciting !

My friend has worked with a government to create zero-knowledge proof from IDs. Turns out there’s a lot of good software engineered to solve that problem.

The UX is still shit tho

Why is it that this enormous business is consistently setting up itself for failure?

You can click the article to find out!

Yeah doesn’t sound very compelling but still more creative than most AAA games

I need to do that. The combat is not very fun and takes so much time compared to Divinity 2

But WHY??

Reading a book seems so absurd. Where do you live ?

void main(void) is an abomination

Oh yes! Let’s keep adding more bloat to ultra complex language C++ surely it will fix everything !
