Did the same. Perfect life. Still sort of doomscrolling HN however... ;)

(and it is very good for the phone battery life, one more thing you less take care about after such move)

And I still own my Core 2 Quad q9650 which will soon move from Windows 10 to some Linux distro to continue support side activities like children access to internet for homeworks, or alternative testbed machine.

I think it should better be "tet".

Very nice "pet" project! I was about to ask what would make it more interesting than HeidiSQL or DB Browser for SQLite and then I remembered those two are crashing on few of my .sqlite files while SQLiteStudio does not!

If it is easy to understand, then it is easy to extend.

If there is no product, there is no need of any architecture. By the way, multiple architectures will give you different product features. So, what do people need in the product drives the functional architecture, while regulation, performance and pricing will drive the technical architecture.

Excessive craftsmanship and over-engineering may kill your product as much as over-selling features may kill the project.

I miss the topic. Can you elaborate about what happened 12 years ago?

Hi. Interesting. Is there any special pattern to follow to make flask/sqlite work with multiple users? What about the deployment? Thanks.

For most of them, this is not AI, these are standard image processing algorithms which are already plugged into the digital processor of a 15 years old camera.

They do have predictable and determnist output, as for simple jpeg compression which is no AI.

pjturpeau — Thu, 21 Mar 2024 16:11:18 +0000

It seems to be a great tool, however on the few checks I did on big XML files, it shows modified lines in normal green and modified attributes in bold green, which makes them difficult to detect visualy.

I didn't find in the documentation how it is possible to change the style of the diff, or to ask for another color in the bold case.

Any idea?

I agree, too bad it's not maintained anymore nor open sourced.

I tried rust 4 years ago, and it was the case on a great extent. Is it really still true?
