> Win32
Actually there are *three* variations of this in terms of styling:
1. The "themed" variation that most apps use
2. The "unthemed" variation that still a lot of apps use because Microsoft for some reason decided to make theming opt-in and even then instead of using a `EnableThemes(ET_PLEASE);` API call they make it use a weird XML-based resource that you *still* have to jump through hoops with most resource compilers.
3. The "Windows NT 3.x" variation that uses slightly a altered unthemed style which fits the Win 3.x/NT 3.x a bit better, is enabled using an executable flag that indicates the exe's minimum supported OS and is still supported on modern 64bit Windows 10. In case you haven't seen it, [here is a comparison](https://i.imgur.com/WGKG9q5.png) using an example from OpenWatcom's samples (which has a switch to enable it). Ironically, the flatter style fits modern Windows 10 better :-P.
Yes, you can still find some apps using the last one too.
Of course add to this all the custom controls released over the years that replicate standard Windows controls, even by Microsoft themselves (hello MFC).

Technically, he *did* ask first. He didn't modify the main repository, just his own working copy. Then he showed what his idea _would_ do if they allowed it to be pushed to production.
The lesson I see is more like "don't piss off powerful people".

If you take a program that was designed from the ground up to take maximal advantage of a rendering pipeline contained in a single machine, and you try to implement a remote display by just piping it through an off-the-shelf network protocol to a dumb receiver, there's gonna be a lot of latency. The more you can customize the protocol and/or implement application-specific logic on the receiving end, the closer you can come to matching the performance of the purely local case.
Client-side JavaScript is a pretty good analogy. JS code is used to render a lot of UI updates on web pages that could, in principle, work just as well by requesting an updated page from the server, but in practice, doing it that way is intolerably slow. If you want to build a website that works well without client-side JS, you have to lower your expectations at the start and design your entire UI around the constraint that any update to the page content , no matter how small, is going to take at least a few hundred milliseconds.

Sorry I misinterpreted what you're saying. I thought you were saying "not everything needs to be native" and not "not everything needs to be packaged as an app."
We really need to fix the terminology in this industry, I don't even know what "native" means anymore.

Oh dear. If you can't answer these questions, you have no idea whether your final result is correct or just numerical noise. I find scientific computing on supercomputers to be the ideal place for unit tests. They encourage you to consider the robustness of your calculation at every stage.

You don't need to learn those languages to be a professional in this field. There are many professional software engineers who've never touched a line of C or C++. And while it does help to learn them _eventually_, until you have some experience programming and understanding of how computers work it's best to hold off on learning them and stick with something that lets you explore without breaking in alarming ways.

On Linux and other unices too. Pretty much only Mac OS X cares and even there there are several programs that break the UI consistency.
Now don't get me wrong, i'd like it if applications were consistent, but i think this promise was broken since the moment Bill Atkinson decided to reimplement the button control in HyperCard.

Are you joking? Try playing with an additional 10ms latency. Not with a controller, although you still might notice, but with a mouse. It doesn't feel right.
I mean, maybe some people who have never played a game before wouldn't know, but it definitely registers at a subconscious level and they will prefer the lower-latency system, given an input lag difference of 10MS. 10MS is almost a whole frame at 60hz, and almost 2 at 144hz. Yeah, you'll definitely notice that and it will degrade the experience, even if not consciously.
To be clear: We're talking about _adding_ 10ms on top of all the other latencies, which there are many.

HTTPS is hugely misleading if you think it gives your internet usage total protection.
It only provides *some* encryption of your traffic, not total encryption. Someone snooping your traffic can still infer a lot of information by simply looking at the plaintext TLS handshakes, and the size and frequency of packets exchanged under the session.

That isn't really correct, because of client-side prediction.
When you play a game, your connection to the server might be a normal 30ms, but the lag between your inputs and the screen will always be less than 10ms, because the majority of inputs that were possible on this tick will be possible on the next tick given by the server, so the game renders it as succeeding even if it didn't.
The difference is between streaming the local gameworld to a player, and streaming all of the graphics. If you have to stream all of the graphics, the latency will need to be below 10ms. If you have to stream only the gameworld, the client can predict whether an input will succeed and draw appropriately.

But at the enterprise level aren't most networks already intentionally NITM'ing all the traffic? I believe at my work they do this by creating their own signing authority and installing as "trusted" it on all company machines. This would allow for caching of all content whether over http or https.

>All because the company doesn't want to pay for platform-specific UI engineers. Because fuck you, that's why.

My current monitor is 7MS input lag, and it's noticeable, but not the worst. My new one will be 4MS. 7MS is almost half a frame at 60hz, which you will definitely notice. You have to remember, I mean subconsciously notice and impacts the experience, not necessarily being able to say "woah there's a 7.1452MS latency on this!"
I've tried game stream. It's god-awful latency. That's going to depend massively on where you live, but for me it's a no go.
> lag doesn't matter if you're doing a massive compute job.
Straw-man argument, that's not what I'm talking about.

SQL is probably first priority for workplaces. It is pretty simple, and very different from other languages, but forces a useful way of thinking about and structuring data. But it is not enough on its own. A lot of organizations use a lot of .NET (C#). Java is a pretty good and portable general purpose OOP, but the Scala variant is becoming more mainstream. Python is very easy to code, very versatile, and has a huge set of libraries for everything you would typically need to do. JavaScript is often a go-to scripting language, and html/css/php is standard for web development. If you want full control and power, I think Rust is gaining over C and C++ with its ownership concept, which opens it up to awesome possibilities in parallel computing.
To;dr learn SQL first, then python. Without knowing anything else

Mostly Java and Javascript, C# is less common. Gaming industry use modern C++ and few C#. For modern iOS applications you need Swift, for legacy iOS hell you need Objective C. Also in legacy hell software you will see PHP and badly coded old C++. Legacy hell pays more because people run from that shit.

> You can have your cake and eat it too.
I doubt that. You're completely missing the point of the story. The mere existence of that faster version gave enough ammunition to one department to win what appears to be a very big, very influential power struggle with several other departments. For that to be even remotely true, that means somebody was telling a lot of other people that making the program faster either wasn't possible or wasn't economically feasible.
The only way to have your cake and eat it too in this scenario was to keep it to yourself and tell nobody. When asked why the program was so much faster for you, lie and say you have no idea. I'm not sure I would be able to do that with a straight face, nor would I want to. I'd probably quit first. But, that's me. I love contracting because I can fire my client if I don't like how they do business.

In his opinion we should not.
The advice was bad but it was a valubale lesson to him. Whenever someone suggests something or has feedback on the writer's code, he remembers the `Stay the hell out of other people's code` and actually listens harder because he doesn't want to be like his former boss.
That's the way I interpreted the story.

That wouldn't have avoided this situation at all. It was an interdepartmental squabble and the guy he would have paired with would have told him to stay out of it, but not why. I doubt the devs on the ground had much insight into why the app was as bad as it was. Given the curiosity of the dev in question, it probably would have played out exactly the same.
Pair programming is not a silver bullet.

>\- reduces portability/ties you to a vendor
I would say in some cases the opposite applies. For many years I supported a clinical application which we deployed to multiple hospitals, each with a different back-end patient administration system. We defined the common entities in stored procedures customized to each vendors PAS and our data layer was mostly a single code set which only needed to call the correct stored procedures, very little needed to be done in our code to handle the different schema in the other vendor's software.
Of course this relied on us getting permission from each vendor to install our own stored procedures in their database, or in some cases we contracted to them to provide the interface. It was also simplified by the fact that we were not updating the PAS, just reading patient and clinical information to combine with our application's data.

Once you write a single C compiler (in a different language), it can be used to compile a new C compiler that's written in C. From there, you use that _already-compiled_ C-in-C compiler to compile itself. It's called bootstrapping.

This was 5 years ago. I’m sure most of the people working there are no longer there. I’m certainly no longer there. And I’m not sure how Proguard worked 5 years ago not so I think they used gradle because that was still being actively developed by Google and not yet the industry standard.
This is way off the it takes only 2 minutes to fully compile an app topic that started this thread.

i understand your point completely. i disagree with it.
computers back then were a *lot* different. one could eat 50% of your cpu *easily* simply performing a bulk packet transfer.
there's a reason os/2 bragged about being able to format a floppy and print at the same time.
i spent a lot of time hand optimizing assembly back in those days. simply reordering instructions could yield a 50% *or more* improvement in execution time.
so, you have an "extended" or "expanded" memory manager and/or driver to handle anything outside of 20 address bits. as data is limited to blocks of 2^16 bytes, because intel addressing was segmented, with a 16 bit segment register, segments started every 16 bytes... so memcpy (or drawing lines on the screen in mapped vga memory) required additional checking to ensure you don't overflow your segment.
anyhooo, as one had < 640k addressable memory, using more required paging from xmm or emm... and depending on your system, this could actually *be* a memcpy handled by the os or xmm/emm driver *in a weird ass addressing mode*, which took time to switch to, and usually a context switch.
so, as your network driver (and every-bloody-thing-else) on your pc tried to keep the first 640k clear for the program you were running:
- fetch line coordinates
- build network request
- call network stack
- calls software interrupt
- manually saves context
- pages to/from xmm to build network buffer
- issues software interrupt to send packet
- interrupt handled to receive packet
- manually save context
- page xmm for packet
- issue software interrupt to renderer informing packet received
- renderer manually saves context
- renderer pages xmm for packet
- renderer draws a line
and then it sends an ack, and the who kit and caboodle rolls back up. it was a clusterfuck. things were bad back then for complex code architecture, things that we take for granted today.
formatting a hard drive would take most of the day, and you weren't doing anything else with your machine. like, a raspberry pi has several orders of magnitude more power than these types of machines.
i can *easily* believe ditching the network code (even never sending anything on the wire) could yield a 100x speedup.

Wait, I merely argue that bringing up concerns to code owners expecting them to solve it, is not going to work, in my experience, *even* if you show them *why* it's slow. The *only* evidence accepted by an engineer, and rightfully so, is showing them a working solution. If the engineer believes they "need" a network distributed client-server framework to solve a problem, then that's what they thought was best, and short of showing them something better you won't be convincing them. That's my experience with stubborn computer scientists.
To be fair you're right about bugs -- new code may introduce new faults, with emphasis on "new". But degraded performance from a user's point of view is bad too. One absolutely needs to assess where there is more risk -- introducing new faults but taking the chance on improving performance, or keeping old code. I also struggle to understand the doctor comparison, how do doctors relate to computer scientists here? Is it that we do things without regard of empirical evidence too often? Is that the point of comparison?

> It is a win for most companies/developers though otherwise we wouldn't continually see an endless cycle of tech trying to handle the same problems.
I think you're mistaking short-term ease covering the same ground with long-term benefit, or genuine differentiation. You also need to be careful thinking about who is benefiting. Maybe some indie devs do, but dev shops that are not huge often get swallowed whole in areas.
> If this was such a no win situation, Electron would have never been created.
There is always a benefit to a large mega-corp like Google in shitting it's technologies in as many places as possible. I don't hate electron, but it's success has nothing to do with it's suitability. It's in a grossly underfunded area. What outside of electron is there?
> It may not be a win to consumers, but it is a win to many companies/devs.
Perhaps in the VC world there are some wins to be had, but those companies are not blindly investing. It's simply not a scalable solution.

Gotcha - I understand what you mean now. Yes, since each SLEEP() can lock up a connection and since connections are finite and meant to execute in milliseconds and get recycled, then it's trivial to bring down database access with a flood of SLEEP() attacks.

SQL is not meant for your business logic. It is the terrible platform for that. Your essentially hard coding everything.
Being verse with SQL makes it more manageable yes, but being marginally competent with your programming makes it even more manageable to be in your codebase.
I'm dealing with a business application where all the logic, all the tiny little queries, even filesystem actions are stored procedures. It's by far the least maintainable code base I have ever dealt with in my life, and the dozen other people that have to deal with it have all agreed. Even the UI view states are hardcoded into stored procedures.
Something that should take 5 minutes to change takes hours. Something that should take a week takes months. It's easy to find someone to work on your codebase, it's not very easy to find someone to work on your codebase when all the business logic is in SQL. Let's not even get into the giant shitpile of mostly unfixable vulnerabilities that we have.
Long-term maintainability is far more important and expensive.

Agreed. That they say it's "expected" just means it's consistent with the code as written. That is to say, "we only use http and never https." It's almost certainly an oversight of the developers and they need to fix this stat. There's no practical reason for this. If Windows Update and Google Play can pull it off, so can Apple.

> Many doctors initially resisted the idea of washing their hands before surgery. Their intentions may have been good,
They were not. When [Ignaz Semmelweis](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignaz_Semmelweis) discovered that properly washing one's hand with chlorine after an autopsy would dramatically reduce occurences of [Puerperal fever](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puerperal_fever), some doctors went out of their way to perform autopsies _just before assisting childbirth_, and raised the mortality rate of the mothers they "cared for" to a virtual *certainty* (over 9 mothers out of 10 were dying at their hands).
While only a few were this purposefully murderous, most of the profession was too busy looking good and denying that they were the cause of the infections to do anything about it. Nobody actually look at the empirical evidence and said something like _"okay, chlorine hand washing is correlated with lower childbirth deaths **somehow**. We don't know why, but we should probably try this out, just in case it saves many many lives."_
Antisepsis caught on only much later, when people like Louis Pasteur and Joseph Lister developed germ theory. I suspect it was because this time, doctors understood what was going on, and therefore wouldn't be perceived as performing rituals they don't understand.
For many people, even today, social status is more important than the lives of others.

You could tune your WM/DE to *anything*. Any taste...
- Happy/childish mood? Hardcore coding with kids/cartoony icons. No one bat an eye, and even a lot of "serious" people liked it, it was relaxing.
- Active mood? "Toxic/radioactive" icons, metalish theme. Lets pass that exam as a boss.
- Minimalistiic mood? Back in the day you had Fluxbox themes mimicking a lot of /r/unixporn minimal thrends. Gray/flatish looks, minimal/outlined wallpapers, few desktop icons. Total zen and calm mind to code/syadmin. No distractions.
Now everything is flat as boring. Everything is copied to and from each other. As I said, check /r/unixporn. There is no originality. It's like the new coders/aficionados are afraid of being criticized.
Or worse, extremes. Either i3-gaps faking being a programmer, or huge adwaita/Arc themes with the same Numix/Faenza icons everywhere. Meh.
I loved the Fluxbox/FVWM modding comunity back in the day. People composed unique themes. Steampumk, Gaudi "childdish" icons as if they were taken from a fairy tale, modernish, MAC-ish, industrial themed...

To me, that feels like a frontend dev saying that writing CSS is worth it only if you have a dedicated CSS-coder in house. I don't think SQL is so hard to master that a backend programmer can't be expected to know it. You can easily specialize in both SQL and your favorite backend language.

> Your comment sounded a bit patronizing
That definitly wasn't my intent, sorry if it came off that way.
> It's possible I was (or still am) a beginner, but I like to think I have pretty good grasp on the language. I believe the problem I had is more about readability of and getting around the codebase than knowing the language.
I contributed to the ascension of Clojure as our primary language on my team at work a few years ago. So I had the opportunity to see a lot of developers through their Clojure journey. The problem you describe is what most people struggle with the longest. Even once you understand the concepts and the semantics, it can feel disorienting to navigate a code base. Where are the entities defined, where is the data modeled, where are the main components, what are the arguments, what's in this map, etc. This is something you do get over eventually, you develop an intuition into it and a better sense of the cues in the code that helps you get a sense of the code base at a glance. As well as, like you guessed, being one with the REPL. Also, there are techniques eventually you develop to write code in a way that makes understanding it easier, such as with better naming, proper sprinkling of doc and comments, better design, flatter composition, more purity, the use of destructuring, now there is spec also obviously.
So this is what I meant by beginner. Maybe beginner was too novice, you could be considered intermediate or whatever, those are fuzzy qualifiers. My point is more that struggling with this in Clojure is still a sign that you havn't finished mastering the language.
Yes, this is a weak point in Clojure for sure. There's nothing attractive in having to climb a massive learning wall just to be able to understand an unfamiliar code base. The last two years with Spec have really been about that. How can the wall be lowered or eliminated while not giving up on anything else. This holds true even once you're past that wall. I can manage myself around unfamiliar code bases, but making that easier and less effort would be great even for more experienced Clojure devs.
I think a lot of people don't understand though what people like me feel like we gain with this. Why would you struggle through this and accept that situation? Why continue to use and prefer using Clojure. Why don't you move to languages who put that problem front and center?
Honestly, it's a great question, and I don't blame anyone who chooses to say screw this. It's also a question I've never managed to answer in ways people understand. For example, I mentioned how Spec is trying to solve this problem while not sacrificing anything else. So what are those things? I wish I could just list them out, but a lot of it is immaterial.
There's this thing about working with Clojure (and some of the other Lisps as well), that makes it the coding experience is completly different. I normally tell people it's like the difference between jamming (as in musical jam session) and composing music (as in classical and writing music sheets). Clojure is the Jazz of programming languages. If you're more in the camp that programming is a science, you might think its crazy not to want to formalize things even more. If you believe programming is more of an art and trade, you'll probably love the improvisation Clojure provides.
This is also the true essence of dynamic programming in my view. I think the word dynamic now is too strongly attached to this idea of not having type information at compile time. That's not where the idea developed though. Dynamism is about programs that are living things, that are self aware, and which can reshape themselves as they run. It's about blurring the lines between code, compilation and execution as well as bringing the programmer closer to the program. The lack of type information is simply an artifact of the current mechanism which try to achieve this dynamism. There's a reason there are no legitimate typed Lisp, because no one has figured out a way to bring type information and retain the same level of dynamism.
That said, if you look at languages on all sides, you will see that static systems are becoming more and more dynamic, and dynamic systems are trying to close the gaps in terms of safety. What you won't see often is languages trying to become more static (in the dynamic, static sense I described above, not the type information sense)
> I used Clojure (as in, on JVM).
Ah okay, I think since you mentioned Slack and Elm, I figured you must have been targeting JavaScript.
> I just like static typing better now after the experience.
Like I said, I don't blame anyone going that route. There's good reasons to do so.

He's not referring to it being low-level, just it being hard to read when you're using it to solve the same problems you would with a typical programming language.

10 milliseconds is 2/3 of a frame. That's simply not noticeable unless you're a pro fighting game/CS:GO player playing in a competitive way.
Games already have many frames of lag built-in. Doom 2016, for example, [has about 87ms of input latency](https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2017-console-fps-input-lag-tested) (when targeting 60fps). Many games take longer than that.
An extra 10ms would hardly make a game jump from normal to barely playable. 100ms would.

Nah, some of these are good points, others, nobody cares.
It's probably a good idea for your system to allow people to change their name. This happens all the time.
It's probably not a good idea for your system to attempt to handle names which can't be represented in Unicode. Or people who don't have names. At some point, you place the onus on the user to integrate with your system rather than the other way around. You're not going to get far in modern society without a name.

I don't think helping enterprise networks cache the downloads is the reason.
Firstly, unless iTunes did SSL pinning, any reasonably large company will have their own root certificate installed on machines so they can intercept SSL traffic (for monitoring, filtering, and caching).
Secondly, videos and music downloaded from iTunes are unique per user as they contain a bit of information about the purchaser, so caching the downloads is of little value https://i.imgur.com/1BkO3IB.png
It's more likely that there's little reason to change.
