I'm not saying that having a GitHub account should be a _requirement_ for
joining, but it could be a part of the "business logic" for new account
validation. It's very easy to implement. If you're an established Nim
developer, the forum rolls out a red carpet. If you're not, your first X posts
The admins have to set some rules about posting.
I agree that requiring a GitHub account will do more harm than good.
It may be worth hooking in to the StopForumSpam API which would help block bots
(but not much help for humans). Realistically, human spam is very difficult to
combat without impacting the user experience for legitimate users.
Yesterday I did a very short test. Generally SIMD (Single instruction, multiple
data) may work best with 16 byte aligned data and restrict modifier to indicate
non overlapping data. But even without there is some SIMD available in Nim
indeed.
First we make gcc output visible with &> output redi
Thank you for your posts.
I think the behavior is a matter of the Nim compiler. aSeq is deepcopied into
aSeqPar and aSeqPar behaves as if it is declared locally within workerTread as
"let aSeqPar = aSeq". But I would prefer: "var aSeqPar = aSeq". Obviously there
exists no suitable pragma too.
Having a GitHub account should not be required to participate in the community
and I think it's harmful to make people with few original Nim code second-class
citizens.
Another idea is GitHub integration. Make each new user authenticate with
GitHub, scan his/her repos for original Nim code, assign reputation rank based
on star count. 8)
No, please, do not create RSVG wrapper =) Take your time for rest and making
other useful things.
Thanks for pointing me to that. I'm confused in all that
pointer-reference-object_itself stuff =) I'll try to check this tomorrow.
SVG works, I created GdkPixbuf from it with:
fill_c
Generally you should check the result of functions which returns a pointer like
the "newFromFile" ones. That functions generally return nil if something went
wrong, in that case you can find error info in the error var. And you may look
for C examples. Do you have the Krause book?
And, as GTK m
