All you executives letting the developer do the designer’s job to cost saving is why we end users often get bad user experience in the first place.
Before you guys down vote on me or make more comments like this, know that there are lots of full-time user experience designers out there, who don’t know anything about programming. They don’t get paid for doing nothing.
Why do people keep saying “UI/UX”?
UI is user interface.
UX is user experience.
One is to be developed (with code), and the other is to be designed (in Figma for instance). They have very little overlap!
I mean, you can cross-compile to generate a Gentoo rootfs for the embedded system.
I worked on embedded systems for audio devices. I of course endorsed Alpine as well, but with musl as the C library I got weird bugs of stuttering audio output.
With Gentoo I get the option to build my entire system with musl as well, but I would rather have that bug not in my system. That’s what Gentoo offers: options.
By “LFS”, I think you mean Buildroot, practically. Buildroot is also highly customisable, but Buildroot isn’t a distro. Like LFS, there is no way yo update a system, only rebuilding with latest packages. It also does not have flags for the whole system, so you’re on your own if you want to disable, say IPv6, in the whole system.
Those things you listed are part of the fact, not all. Like saving 100kB. It does not matter in your 1TB hard drive, but it’s night and day in embedded systems. No benefit for you isn’t the same to no benefit.
Miss Pad Thai here better off just writing “Screw my ex-boyfriend” on the comic.
Pokémon Ultra Sun, is that you?
What if the system does not have libc?
No offence but I think I need to stop discussing with you.
Her eyes are different in the last one.

It’s not something you try to recite. You just do it so many times you became too good at it to look at the table.
Four bits can represent up to 15, from 0000 to 1111. Correspondingly, 0 to F in hex.
Binary from right to left is 1, 2, 4, 8.
One byte is eight bits. It takes eight digit places.
XXXX XXXX
0000 0000 to 1111 1111
00 to FF
0 to 255
What you mentioned is compatibility across platforms. A program written in C is also guaranteed to run on all the systems you mentioned, given that the system has a C compiler and libc that stick to the standard. You, the programmer, does not have to anything to “make sure” your program works.
See this insane list of platforms GCC supports.

We’ve invented high-level programming languages like C 53 years ago, just to get away from assembly, and to avoid dealing with the “cross-platform” problem you mentioned, remember?
You are comparing it to Eclipse. I also give you that.
VS Code is a good software? I beg to differ. It’s slow. It’s messy to look at. It’s resource hungry.
If you think VS Code is a good editor, we can make an even better editor in another language.
But why Node? Node cost five seconds just to start up back when I worked on my embedded ARM v7 platform, and on modern x86_64 computers, npx anything takes just as long. Why rely on another runtime? Why not native binaries instead?
Not determine, but allows. C is a shitty language too. Linux is great because Linus bars off shitty contributors.
I’m 100% sure I can make Rust code (not even compiled to WASM) run natively in a browser like Firefox, given I have enough will power, time, energy, and money. The problem is getting everyone else to agree to this new standard.
This simply won’t work.
domain.com sends you an HTML, which is empty. The HTML defined a <style> tag which your browser will fetch from cdn.com. Do you want to block it? Cool, no CSS for you.
It also defined a <script> tag which your browser will fetch the React library from cdn.com. Do you want to block it? Cool, no content for you.
The whole page is just one <div id="root"></div>.
OK, how is this related to “opensource” lemmy community? DisplayPort is not an open standard.
It’s more expensive than what it is really worth years ago, among many other problems. It was a cheap and reliable programming platform when it was Raspberry Pi 1.
Play the buff. Tell users they can watch X without a license at hand. If they ever click on it, tell them there’s a technical issue. They’ll move on in five seconds.
