  • Mods are worse here and often will delete posts and ban users, who don’t violate the rules. There are tons of unwritten rules, especially in news and politics related topics.

    If a user is banned, all their posts and the communities they created are deleted. That means lots of valuable content can get deleted at the whim of a mod.

    Tankies are far more present and tolerated here than on Reddit.

    Misogyny is also more ripe. There’s a reason twoxchromosomes never got off the ground here.













  • Composition is far better and immensely more flexible than inheritance. Extracting duplicate code into helper classes or static functions is a good option.

    Conformance to interfaces or protocols with default implementations is a great alternative as well.

    I like OOP more than other styles, it’s just often badly done. Complex inheritance, huge classes that do too much, overuse of factories and similar patterns, can ruin it.



  • With over 500 bug fixes and performance improvements since Qt 6.7, your existing code will run better without changing a single line. On macOS, Qt Quick applications now integrate with the native menu bar, and for a native Windows 11 look they can use the new Fluent style. Resizing Quick windows is snappier on macOS with Qt 6.8, and on Windows the application start-up time has been improved by changing the default font database to DirectWrite.

    Nice. Lots of other great stuff too.
