Had to look it up. Saw this right on the main page of nanomsg:

> This project has largely been superceded by the nng project. Users are encouraged to use nng if they are able. The nng project is wire compatible with this library, and supports a significant superset of capabilities.

> Currently, only Windows and Linux are supported by BBA-IPC, but if there is enough interest, cristian64 has already found another library that could let us support this in other operating systems.

For anyone curious, the cross-platform IPC library they’re considering is ZeroMQ. Draft pull request here: https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/pull/14046

Can you clarify what you’re referring to?

> This may not come as a surprise, but Linux (and with some tweaking even macOS) supports SLIP.

Anyone have any experience with SLIP for macOS? Curious if the author was actually able to make that work, I’ve been looking into something similar the past few weeks with no luck.

Does that mean there’s no culling for overlapping elements? Sorry, just trying to understand your response.

Are there any culling optimizations for unseen elements when layering SVG images? Looks like this isn’t an optimization that comes out-of-the-box with OpenVG and all the major web browsers needed to add this, so wondering what your solution is doing.

> Makes you dream there could be an equivalent for our own universe?

I’ve always considered that to be what’s achieved by the LHC: smashing the fundamental building blocks of our universe together at extreme enough energies to briefly cause ripples through the substrate of said universe

I’ve been curious, what are the motivations for most projects to use Lua for enabling scripting in C over this? Is the concern around including an entire Python interpreter in a project and Lua is lighter?

Missed opportunity to call it typy in my opinion

Just listened to a segment about him on NPR, apparently his writing themes were greatly influenced by an experience he had as a child where he was standing next to someone who was killed by a lightning strike.

Here’s the Hacker News discussion from when this was discovered: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33797799

Dave, I’m still regularly blown away by this discovery. I don’t know what else there is to be said, but do you have any other comments regarding this?

Darn. Thanks for checking though, I appreciate the effort

Is this the Jolly Roger restored build or a build of X-treme I haven’t heard of yet?

A similar website, but using genre clustering instead of artists: https://everynoise.com/

Demo of it in action, crazy stuff: https://youtu.be/F8jlJapQbFY

If you can find the source for that I’d love to read about it

You might notice that your project is already included in the Readme under credits.

Because the rest of the commentors in this thread seem to not be reading the article, there's a performance issue in Firefox due to the following unresolved bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1190398

Just briefly reading through the specs, I can't see any reason why someone would want to use this over FreeRTOS unless they have a Rust-based embedded system project. Is there something I'm missing here?
