Circa 2005, I'm learning to make a windows game using C/C++ and posted it on local game developer forum. The project was far from a good game but I got an offer from local game dev studio because of it. I worked on that studio for years and involved in developing games for Windows, Flash, and eventually mobile.
Definitely one of my all time favorites. I keep an iPad Mini 1st Gen around just for it. Sad that the sequel no longer works once their server went down.
> Since there is no means to ‘verify’ that a PDF file conforms, creators fall back on using Adobe Acrobat, the de facto standard. If Acrobat will open the file then it must be OK! Sadly it turns out that Acrobat is really very tolerant of badly formed PDF files and will always attempt to open them.
I'm grinning widely when reading this.
Until last year I had an opportunity to help maintaining a pdf tools written using Golang. This case where a pdf doc that is not conforming with the standard could be opened in Acrobat but not on other pdf reader tools (including ghostscript) came a lot from our clients and I had to find a way to be able to read/extract the content with a minimum issue because of that.
I'm still using my 2012 13" MBP for works, some things already breaking like the battery is now only last for an hour most and the speaker is damaged I think. So I'm always plugged my MBP to charger and use headset for any audio related activity.
The other issue that have been bugging me would be a slow time when building an app and the constant need to empty my SSD since it only has 128GB to begin with.
But this year I think I need to replace my laptop since I'm no longer able to use the latest xcode on this machine (I'm stuck at macOS Catalina).
Other than that, this laptop can be used for any lighter activity such as browsing, editing docs, etc.
Reading the pricing detail for free tier at a glance is a little bit of confusing because of the icon and font color used on certain feature, I had to read the next tier to (probably) understand it further.
Is the free tier limited to 4 diagrams? Is the free tier limited to 40 diagrams? Is the free tier permit the user to save the diagram on Gleek server? and so on...
