Haha. I lived in Simferopol, Crimea and fondly remember the pizzeria there. It was hugely popular; the queue would often spill over into the street outside. The pizzas were different from classic Italian pizza; they would bake them in an electric oven on trays of twenty or so. Still, they tasted very good.

Was it before 1988? (before the Law on Cooperatives was implemented, which allowed the creation of privately owned enterprises)

The pizzeria opened in the early 80s, it wasn't a cooperative. Even before perestroika started, there were plenty of state-owned restaurants. I think that pizzeria was the same, just a state-owned restaurant with a twist.

Now, where these days would you get a parallel port to plug it into?

I seem to recall that the USB ones don't work for this kind of thing. From my teenage memories, you could bit-twiddle by writing to a memory address. I presume the USB ones use a UART that doesn't allow direct memory access, or precise timing, or something.

The one linked in the parent is a PCI card, so this might not apply.

I still have a few computers from the 90s.

One of them is running openbsd and I think it might be fun to write a driver for it actually. I see OpenMSX also support covox.

even lots of modern motherboards still have serial and parallel port headers.

They didn't release new 0.92 packages for Mac and apparently don't plan to.

Noooo! are you aware of any third party binaries?

.92pre4 is available on macports, so they'll probably make .92 available soon.

There's an inkscape cask for homebrew. You should be able to compile it on your own too.

The cask is 0.91, and uses the .dmg file.

I'll subscribe to their dev mailing list and see about volunteering to get the macOS version out.

I've several React Native apps in both appstores. I think while React Native is not suited for all types of apps, there is a sweet spot for certain projects where it really shines. The development speed is really unparalleled, with hot reloading you can see your app changes as soon as you hit 'save' in your editor.

what is the sweet spot? I'm faced with developing a fairly simple thing and it would help to know a little more about learning curve ( I use react ), downsides, etc.

Small to medium sized apps (not games) where you can sacrifice some UI polish to get them delivered quicker and on both platforms. Have a look here https://facebook.github.io/react-native/showcase.html If you know React, learning React Native would be pretty easy, plus you can use many of react libraries like redux, etc.

Use open source alternatives in a first place. For authentication there is RedHat's http://keycloak.org, thanks to containers it's really easy to setup if you want to try it out. See https://medium.com/@ak1394/simple-social-login-for-react-nat... for an example.

I'm using it in my React Native app. Pretty happy with it so far. Haven't tried anything else, as Realm looked like the best choice at when I was selecting the data store for the app.

I'm using react-redux 4.4.5 in React Native app, no problems at all.

I had the same experience. I've been doing intermittent fasting for several months, and after a while I felt that hunger doesn't bother me that much anymore, so I decided to go for a three day fast. I do get slightly elevated blood pressure from time to time, but on the third day of fast I noticed that it dropped to lower than 120. I did a bit of googling, and found that there even were some medical studies looking into effect of fasting and lowering of blood pressure.

Spacemacs is great! What like the most, is that it's very easy on your hands. No more emacs pinky!

Yes. I recommend running it off master branch instead of release, for better es6 support.
