What an incredible loss. I first met Vanessa almost 20 years ago while she was working for impara in Magdeburg. We were colleagues until 2017. She introduced me to Cory Doctorow's Little Brother novels. We attended Hackers together. She was an incredible programmer, a role model and very kind soul. I learned a lot from her. May she find peace wherever she is now.

Just put scaffolding around it, will fit much better into NYC :D

Can they fix schedules and reliability first please?! https://www.welt.de/politik/deutschland/article244075801/Bah...

Being a victim (some say: customer) of the Deutsche Bahn (with bahn.comfort black status): I sincerely believe they can not. After 40 years of ignoring maintenance, never setting up the East-German rail system for success, I honestly believe the system is broken beyond repair. What is indicative of that is that they believe they can make the Deutschlandtakt work by (no typo!) 2070.

We get what we have, and that's it.

There was a time when there was no railway and a time were we had a good railway. That is not out-of-reach, but it is mostly a political problem, not a technical one.

No, public money is going into road infrastructure.

Rail is a lost cause in Germany.

I know Germans like to complain, but the ICE network is still one of the best in Europe, especially given its size.

That does not mean that we shouldn't invest more money into improving it. But I would not count it as a lost cause.

Hopefully, when the current government is replaced by a more progressive one at some point (let a man dream), we see more political will.

There's no incentive for them to do so, so they won't.

Unfortunately, they realistically cannot. Basically every major infrastructure project gets loads of local opposition which would require substantial political will. However, the currently elected government is the government that let the rail infrastructure get that bad in the first place

AFAIK to fix reliability no new major infrastructure projects would be required (at least for most of the reliability offenses). They would just need to maintain/modernize existing infrastructure and rolling stock, so all things that aren't really opposable.

To achieve the Deutschlandtakt as noted in the article, yes new infrastructure projects are required, but I think most people would be happy with all the existing service running as well as it has ~15-20 years ago.

Probably linking the paper and examples notebook here makes sense as they are pretty explanatory:

Wanted to do just that, thank you

Brendan Eich used both Scheme and Self as inspirations. Self is a dialect of Smalltalk.

Did you link his biography? The claim is that he used Self as an inspiration, not that there was once a man named Brendan Eich.

From the workflow shown in the video it might even make sense to build a low-res game now with DirectX 9 and "mod it up"? The texture upscaling and material inference as well as the direct modification capabilities look amazing!

I don't think I'd go that far, haha. Building a good looking low res texture is probably harder than getting a nice modern one.

Thanks for reporting, we'll be looking into this. What is the location that you installed the app to? Are you starting it via the startup menu, desktop icon, or directly with coscreen.exe?

Hello! We are still planning on Linux support but, to be honest, have had our hands full with supporting macOS and Windows. There are a surprising number of things to do and edge cases (multiple displays, spaces, full screen behavior, non-invasive event injection, etc). There are no specific technical issues holding us back really.

We are currently working on a headless client that will also work on Linux. We do not have exact dates for a release yet but it (and a full client) is on our roadmap. IT WILL happen. Fingers crossed.

https://github.com/gabdube/native-windows-gui isn't in the list but is quite a polished option for building Windows specific GUIs. Seems to be the more mature option compared to winsafe.
