This is cool. We have a CachyOS install here that we've been trying and it's been good so far.
Big news: @FrameworkPuter is more than tripling its sponsorship of CachyOS, from $250/month to $10,200/year! 🎉
This helps keep our infrastructure running and brings us closer to working on CachyOS full-time.
Thank you, Framework! 💚

Y'all still using "main" as your C entry point?
int master(void) {
return 0;
}
# gcc program.c -Wl,-e,master

Wow! Almost 80 games made with raylib already on Steam!!! 🔥
At least the ones I know about because devs let me know, Steam can not detect raylib games due to static linkage. 😔
Do you know any other raylib game on Steam not on this image? 🤔

100% yes! Thank you @lauriewired.
Google researcher @lauriewired warns the shift from C++ to Python in universities is creating programmers who don't understand how computers actually work:
"When I was in college getting my CS degree, my year was one of the last years that was using C++ as the core language for teaching students. Actually they were switching over to Python of all languages."
"One of the biggest issues that I have is that a lot of these higher level languages are really abstracting away what is happening under the hood. If you're not aware of how the computers work in general, then you're gonna have problems when it comes to debugging."
"Starting with a language like C++ gives you the ability to do these really high level abstractions, but it also gives you the ability to customize your memory management and get really close to the underlying machine. Especially if you're trying to work in high performance computing, game development, or high frequency trading."
"At C++ conferences, there's almost this fundamental anger response when it comes to mentioning something like C or C++. People start complaining about the complexity of it."

maybe everything is getting worse everywhere, but can I tell you one place where things are getting better?

Had a quick try at replicating these nice animations using clay's transition API, was a lot of fun and also helped me find a bug in the layout algo!
Sharing some more UI previews for Superlogical, this time the "tab peek." If you three-finger swipe down, you can "peek" at the other session tabs. These are live-updating, metal-rendered previews including splits. If you keep dragging, you enter a "mission control" style mode.
This is one of those UI patterns that once you get used to, you mindlessly find yourself doing it ALL THE TIME. It's a great way to quickly take a look at everything thats going on. You aren't reading the mini text of course, but the shape of it tells you a lot about where things are.
The peek pushes the terminal down off screen, it doesn't resize it, so it doesn't force any weird reflow or anything either.
There's a lot more to talk about, especially about how this interacts with how we expose what needs attention so you can easily find the terminals/sessions/etc. that require your attention.
Of course, you'll be able to drive this with the keyboard too. :)
As always, a disclaimer: this is all early work subject to change, just trying to share some of what we're building in public. A lot of the UI experiential design is @almonk so follow him for more updates too!

New exploit: “xor dword [0xf80c2094], 1<<22”
Unlocks CPU microcode, the platform security processor, system management mode, and every internal processor register, all at once, on 100 million AMD CPUs. As far as I can tell can’t be fixed.

it's pretty ridiculous that you can ship an entire video editor in 21 MBs in size.
And a friggin weather app on my phone can take up 400 MBs.
