"then" is used to depict time, sequence or a causal relationship. "than" is used with comparative adjectives, to depict comparison.

  • Yeah, that happens.There's a third 'DRM' now, in this space which I recently read about. Although I forget what it was.

  • We Have a Very Loving Relationship

  • I was expecting it to be about GUI programs just waiting for an input.Because when it hangs, it's most probably either doing something long, or something that got elongated due to external factors, which ended up being programmed into the GUI thread. So definitely not idling.

  • Software taketh away faster than hardware giveth: Why C++ programmers keep growing fast despite competition, safety, and AI

  • Well, I guess that's one way to put it.But in that case, I would have 3 years of Python experience, which was <5 hours.

  • Oof sorry.I realise now that how high I wear my trousers was actually everyone's business and wearing it high enough that it didn't hinder movement was actually humiliating you and is morally wrong.And indeed, the pen in my school bag was your business, so was me trying to go out to study when you didn't let me sleep and it was my bad to have respected the teachers instead of calling them names.And of course, burning a smoky firecracker through the door of my 3x4 room was definitely not harassment, neither was banging my door and running away at random times, for a whole year and I was overreacting.

    Thanks for educating me.

  • I do C++. And mostly, there are 2 languages daily.

    • C++ with QML, when doing GUI
    • C++ with JSON for DB related stuff
    • XML for many other things
    • XML with CSS for UI, but here, the XML part is mostly offloaded to a GUI toool.
    • A few times, all 3 happen at the same time, but mostly it's 2.

    Unless you are including CMake, qmake and Unix Makefiles of course, but that's not an everyday thing either.

  • ARL-44 Tanks on parade, France, 1951

  • It really looked as if it won't.Guess it's just the camera angle. The tank looks much shorter (length) than in the diagrams too.

  • There is another way to take this.

    People should do what they want, even when they want to create fake morals that they themselves don't believe in and then use them to gang up and harass others minding their own business.

  • A program to make good-looking tables with images in cells?

    Jump

  • Yes, I used Writer instead because OP's image looked like it would be better suited for the table being embedded in a page layout.

  • A program to make good-looking tables with images in cells?

    Jump

  • Just tried it out (never had to put an image in a table before). It works.

    • Image in cell ✔
    • Image resize in cell ✔
    • Merge split cells ✔
    • Multiline in cell ✔
    • Bold/Italics/Underline/Strikethrough ✔
    • Full Unicode ✔
      • I used KCharSelect to insert unicode characters, but am assuming you have a specific keyboard to do the correct stuff for you.
    • Easily change cell size with merge and centred cells nearby ✔
      • I just typed multiline text and the cell resized the way I expected. I could also just drag the borders to resize.
    • Intuitivity: This was the first time I was doing these specific things in LibreOffice Writer and I didn't have to read a manual. I just looked at the icons on the bar on the top and tried right-click menus. The whole suite of above tests took <5min.

  • What's costlier than increasing RAM?Getting a GPU with higher RAM.

    I'd say, we need to optimise for VRAM usage much more.
