2026-04-14 14:55:54 +0000 <Milan_Vanca> I feel you guyz I also must work on win11 pc :D
2026-04-14 14:53:29 +0000 <int-e> Milan_Vanca: maybe if you measure users' heart rates?

2026-04-14 14:51:10 +0000 <comerijn> No, and I doubt anyone is saying that given the news from the past 6 months

2026-04-14 14:50:27 +0000 <Milan_Vanca> Have you heard claims that 11 is faster than 10?
2026-04-14 14:49:01 +0000 <comerijn> 11 literally can't even go a month without making explorer unable to start within 5 minutes or bricking the user's C drive
2026-04-14 14:48:40 +0000 <comerijn> Same for Windows 7
2026-04-14 14:48:33 +0000 <comerijn> int-e: Windows 10 is a good desktop OS. Not for developing on, but for my gaming rig it's perfectly fine
2026-04-14 14:48:01 +0000 <janus> with the breakdown of international order, can't i just move to China and sell ReactOS branded as Windows 9000?

2026-04-14 14:46:44 +0000 <int-e> (what cycle)
2026-04-14 14:46:40 +0000 <int-e> windows 8 was bad, windows 10 was bad, windows 11 was worse... I don't get it ;)

2026-04-14 14:45:55 +0000 <comerijn> At this point switching to Windows 11 seems an absolute no-go and with claims of being an "agentic OS" Windows 12 seems dead-on-arrival, breaking the long lasting cycle "of one sucky, one good" windows release :p
2026-04-14 14:45:46 +0000 <janus> their UI guidelines from 1995 have probably been entered into the Library of Congress. they can't erase history

2026-04-14 14:45:07 +0000 <janus> no matter what Microsoft does, they will never be able to kill ReactOS
2026-04-14 14:43:49 +0000 <janus> comerijn: i am so nostalgic at this point that i don't even want to recognize what they current microsoft company does
2026-04-14 14:42:26 +0000 <comerijn> janus: That's cool, but OTOH Microsoft seems hellbent on speedrunning scaring everyone away from windows, so that value is rapidly diminishing :p

2026-04-14 14:39:14 +0000 <janus> bet they've never seen the windows event queue. so weird!!! i must win
2026-04-14 14:38:36 +0000 <janus> but they don't mention using Win32 from F#? i'll show them!!!
2026-04-14 14:38:05 +0000 <janus> there is a hackathon in cdmx called 'WeirdUI' and typescript and react are outlawed. because they are too normal
2026-04-14 14:36:37 +0000 <janus> then you end up with these massive tooling issues like ghc ecosystem has, where you have to make sure that hls, c library and ghc all line up...
2026-04-14 14:35:28 +0000 <janus> by iterating super fast and somehow tying the language to new runtime versions, it's like the whole advantage of ' owning the platform' disappears
2026-04-14 14:34:12 +0000 <janus> why do i need .NET core? I really don't get it.
2026-04-14 14:33:39 +0000 <janus> but that is like the best thing about microsoft! the backwards compat!
2026-04-14 14:33:27 +0000 <janus> but every time i mention .NET framework to .NET people they look at me like i am crazy
2026-04-14 14:33:09 +0000 <janus> gentauro: the most appealing thing to me about F# is that you could make a compiled program for .NET Framework and have it run out of the box on the Windows versions of the last , i dunno, 25 years?
2026-04-14 14:33:05 +0000 <humasect> oh..caml?
2026-04-14 14:30:26 +0000 <comerijn> That still sounds wrong, but less so :p
2026-04-14 14:30:19 +0000 <comerijn> i.e. "code quotations" (of both typed and untyped lambda calculus)
2026-04-14 14:30:03 +0000 <comerijn> __monty__: I think you're skipping the pre-parentheses

2026-04-14 14:22:49 +0000 <lortabac> TIL Alonzo Church invented F# in 1936
2026-04-14 14:18:39 +0000 <__monty__> Typed and untyped lambda calculus came out of F#? That doesn't sound right.
