What owners report

  • “I have switched to JUCE as a total cross-platform GUI/high-performance general application development environment, having used it for 7 years in the audio realm I have attained that state, whatever it is, where I realize I can just use it for everything and it’ll be perfectly fine. Doesn’t take too much CMake wrangling either, and once you’ve got at least one half-decent, clonable JUCE - CI pipeline working, the horizon gets wider and wider .. That said, I have to admit that I think more and more about how fun it’d be to just put all JUCE GUI code in a Lazarus’ish front-end, using LUA for that part, and having a decent half Lua/half C++ monstrosity for doing things ..”

  • “[...] I'd say that the fact that miri's trophy-shelf[0] has 39 entries and is 7 years old and still regularly updated is a pretty good indicator that memory bugs are sufficiently rare in rust so as to be notable. [...]”

  • “therefore most likely overpriced at 6€/month something where security is high and support is 24/7 available You are not going to get great 24/7 support inside anything like €6/month (though many may promise it!), so that service may not be as overpriced as you think. [...] Essentially by self-hosting a service like this, you are taking back the admin of managing all that so you have to ask yourself if it is worth saving a few € per month, and consider what you might lose if something goes wrong and all your mail starts bouncing. [...] In most cases you will experience performance degradation (at random times, or just almost always) and other issues due to noisy neighbours on oversold infrastructure. [...] The best (but unfortunately time-consuming) way to get comfortable with this is probably to register a sacrificial domain and set it all up for that domain on hosts not associated with your domains that normally send mail. [...]”

  • “[...] The reported size of the ModelOpt FP8, 16 GB, sounds wrong to me. [...]”
