You're very welcome and so selfishly I must say: please do!

It was written in the GitHub bio.

Yeah its like George Lucas, doesn't matter you care for the Jedis or the Dark Side or even Jar Jar, he owns them all.

Oh you fell into the trap... Just don't anthropomorphize Oracle...

This is one of the most beautiful things I have seen in such a long time. The numeric sliders, the color pickers, the analogue numeric displays, such a great great interface. I wish more and more things were this beautiful.

I liked the article.

Being awful is easy when you start, but think about how much they have worked, how hard they have worked, how much an anti-anti-christ they must have proved themselves to be, what Indiana Jones traps they must have escaped to reach Palantir's CEO from the lobby, how many kids they probably have sacrificed to Satan, to get a contract from one of the most prominent and established war crime houses in history, to do what Google Analytics could do with copy-pasting three lines of code and signing in with your own Google account — just so they could burn their already-gone reputation and keep being one of the worst ways to waste human labor, office space, servers, and dead trees. This takes work, and I must admit I'm in total awe. This is going way beyond the competition to prove something, even if that something is the stupidest thing the laws of physics can handle.

The fact that the author is 14 years old makes my day. Nice work!

I guess around fourteen years ago—back when I was at high school—I picked up the legendary TeXbook. I was in love and totally beguiled by the great Knuth's Art of Computer Programming; how could it be so beautiful? how could it be so precise? and henceforth as I understood the he had developed that masterwork of TeX to make his book, I immediately went to read it. There, in page four he writes:

So I kept using the beautiful em dash ever since; because that is how the greats do it.

Your "I sense potential" was the best thing I read all month :))))

I'm looking forward to see that with popcorns and great pleasure.

How shitty you must be as a company to go out and write this. Kindergarteners have better public policy. I have not seen any gathering of people (other than Trump's whole whatever that circus is called) this openly and easily tell lies. Gathering non profit funds then becoming for profit, Being built to do open source development and not shipping one result, going to the congress and saying "I'm not making any profit of this company" and rigging the world's economy... Now this shit "hey I was the nice person! I said nice things to Apple, look these are facts"

Keep your garbage for the court.

Despite the hate it is receiving, I thought lets test it at least, and tried it to any project that I have locally. For every single of them the coverage generates hundreds of errors and so it is basically useless. I get that I can write a project from scratch, don't use any third party library, and it'll compile to binary, but then why should I not use Rust, Go, Zig, D, C, V, Ada, C++, Nim, Swift, Kotlin Native, Haskell... literally anything designed to be compiled and compiled well?

Horribly horrible horrific horrible insane psychopaths

I laughed so hard at this....

This is great marketing, I had no idea what inscribe was, but a blog like this going viral did something no ad could do for me.

You're welcome! Thank you for not letting the world become boring!

Glorious Day!

The app is true marking of a genius maker. A blank space app where all the interface elements and interactions and ideas are made from scratch. There's a George Lukas like "world building" in it, the blog, the website that is just so nice to watch. One of those things you hardly see in any new product/project/... these days. I loved this.

This is what I call interesting!

What a man!

Their design is getting too sterile and grey. I was a bit sad of seeing the screenshots.

Basically this has been the only way to stop anything from happening. But major systems all have accessibility like web and if someone wants to support accessibility they will do it there. Those who don't, won't even do it on web. If something like I say happens, not only accessibility will be lost, but so much more will be lost too. But then if you need it you'll either implement it or use web. Figma, SketchUp, and Google Docs have their software rendered on a canvas. For them this would have made things much faster. It is giving people options. Personally I hate web. It is horrible to write software by manipulating DOM and having to work with CSS. Every time I touch html/js/css I think why can't it be a nice system? Why I have no control over rendering? At least I would have loved to have an alternative the whole web and dom, and would have killed for writing web pages like a flutter app.

Not only are they a decade late while everyone expected WASM to liberate us from JS, and it ended up being a useless toy in JS whose improvements would have been crushed by having to send all progress to JS to apply it, but then giving it access to DOM is also something you'll realize wasn't enough a decade later. Flutter doesn't need DOM; it has all of its own engine. The browser should give the whole viewpoint to the WASM so that apps can directly implement their own GUIs. And then there will be an app revolution. You can directly port your GUI to the web and have it work. No more your GUI as a WASM worker that has to have its frames painted by JS on a canvas; direct painting. You could have wxWidgets, GTK, Flutter, ... all working insanely fast, insanely beautiful. And then people can do amazing things. Imagine a web alternative that is powered by maestro Knuth's TeX; imagine operating systems as web pages, imagine alternative layout systems that do not have to rely on Web events and frame timing. That is all if the browser allows for WASM to bypass the web part and do it itself.

They have such a good design for this website and all of it is wasted with the share buttons on the top.

That fuck face only knows how to kill hundreds of thousands of people with his unbelievable ignorance.

Cool cool cool

This is just awesome!

What is it with SQLite that every week we have a page of its website in top of HN?

Yeah exactly.
