    @eniko@mastodon.gamedev.place so do i. what you're describing sounds a lot like the unix philosophy. (do one thing and do it well)

    i'm in the same boat as a lot of windows users rn. i want to switch to BSD, but i need linux for video games

      @eniko can we also request the coders to have a nap time during the day? Rest is important, and I'm not kidding about that either.

          @badtux @eniko
          Oh, and I wish software could/would specify which standard they were built against.

          No, it's not C, C is like five different standards.

          @kirtai @eniko That said the C programs I wrote in the early 90s still compile fine today

            @eniko I want small chunks of well-specified code with machine supported proofs so I can be certain of my program's actual behavior across its whole domain.

            I should probably just learn Ada/SPARK or Idris already.

                @MeaningfulBits @eniko should be illegal to call it an "app" if it does.
                Maybe call it a "shim" instead.

                      @me @eniko And every fifteen minutes there is a new Java release that fixes a thousand security holes and adds a thousand new features to bloat up the runtime. Meanwhile my "C" programs from the early 1990s still compile and run just fine.

                        @eniko in many cases i’d be willing to pay *more* for this approach.

                            @eniko But then the boss would have fewer people to manage, and be unable to justify his job. Most software changes are about employment for engineers, not necessity. Grr.

                            As a software engineer I want computer languages and frameworks that stay stable for decades rather than have a new release every year that obsoletes old programs and requires a rewrite. But I don't get to have that :(.

                            @badtux @eniko Maybe that's the appeal of VBA? I never made the move from VB6 to VB.net, so no idea how stable that is. VBA seems to keep on trucking as it is.

                                @me @eniko Substitute any other language or framework in large scale use for Java. Go? Rust? JavaScript/TypeScript? Even where the language is stable the frameworks you have to use to get work done are as firm as gelatin.

                                  @eniko and at the same time, companies hire people who prefer AI, f̶a̶s̶t̶ ̶agile; or as the saying goes, seniors with salary of a junior 🙂

                                      @eniko I picked up Tinystart for the Mac by @nileane which is probably exactly the sort of thing you’re after. It’s as useful as Raycast but without all the VC and AI bollocks, and only costs a fiver.

                                          The general rule of thumb seems to be: The further you go back in time, the better the products, be they online or offline.

                                          All courtesy of the fucked-up neoliberal capitalism that's festering across the whole world.
