I've missed Heidi after changing job and moving from MySQL to Mongo and then Linux many (many) years ago.
Looking forward to see how it goes with Postgres and SQLite nowadays.
I've been working on a programing language to read and write Excel spreadsheets.
Or more accurately I've been writing a custom programming language and porting my library to it, so I can transpile it out to other languages.
I see this.
My assumption is its some kind of html/js cache, local storage across browser sessions maybe. And when you click an email it realizes it needs to update.
The display also supports partial updates, so you can just upload a few sub rectangles of what has changed onscreen. AKA "dirty rectangles".
You can get over 60fps depending on how much is changing, and since these games are on a static background, that's not much.
I agree with what you are saying, except that "I AM ERROR" isn't actually a bug. The character is intentionally named that in Zelda II, even in the original Japanese.
Ambernics seem to be very high build quality. I got the RG280v myself after some research. It's not as powerful (so it can't play every PS1 game at full frame rate) and does not have analog sticks.
But it is very small and I think that along with save states and standby helps it be more of a pick up and play toy for short bursts, more so than my 3DS or vita.
Or what actually happened was the radio show asked if white going first was racially based, concluding that it was not. But conservative media spent days getting themselves outraged over it before it even aired.
Mino Games is YC backed, as their job ads pop up on here occasionally. Interestingly they seem to have shut down their older larger scale Mino Monsters games and are focusing on (what i assume to be) smaller scale collecting games.
I remember some launch demos were able to exit, usually with a forced splash screen ad for the full game. I thought it was a neat trick to use the xbox button to quit out of those and skip the ad.
So maybe exiting was allowed early on and discontinued later.
And some of those aren't even C++ jobs, switching sorting from date to relevant gets you C++ jobs from 14 days ago that would already have moved along in their hiring process.
To me those requirements seem stricter than what i see in the PHP jobs (experience with MySQL + some form of MVC framework). And on top of that it's paying less.
Another example is the finance job I applied at that was paying 70-90k. But to get in the high end of that range you would need previous stock trading software experience. They also wanted 5 hours of my time for the interview process, but that's a separate topic.
As someone who can code in C/C++ and was recently looking for work, I don't think someone should learn low level programming for a career. What I would consider simple PHP jobs were easily paying more than C++ jobs.
If you look at everyone reinventing the wheel in electron and not caring about performance I don't think the situation is going to get better anytime soon.
I have too, but I dream for more of an OQO style. I've wondered at some point how difficult it would be to get a quality case created that all the parts could go into.
It even inspired a WWII plane game to use deferred rendering, which optimizes for having many lights on an object. Even tho they for the most part had only one light source (the sun)...
