Tech Promised Everything. Did it deliver? | Scott Hanselman | TEDxPortland YouTube video by TEDx Talks

I just wanted to say, Iโ€™m probably more proud of this Ted talk than just about anything Iโ€™ve ever done so Iโ€™m gonna be absolutely useless for the next couple of weeks as I promote the shit out of this because I want you to watch it because it matters in the moment we are in youtu.be/dVG8W-0p6vg

Kubuntu doesn't prevent Ninja from compiling the entire Qt Framework, but kills Chromium when there's not enough memory.

A Model for all Ranges Qt 6.10 introduces a generic implementation of QAbstractItemModel that can many any C++ range available to Qt's UI frameworks.

New from the @qt-project.org in #Qt 6.10: let the compiler implement a QAbstractItemModel for you, for any (well, almost any) C++ range.

Very much looking forward to hear about the interesting ways you come up with to break, err, use this!

Wow! It handles 100MB text files! Pretty easily, btw. And it has a scrollbar! Love it ๐Ÿ˜

I wish one day we stop caring laptops and will only use a smartphone for both work and personal activity. Maybe that's the future?

Navigation in Qt 6.9 documentation In Qt 6.9, we reorganized the documentation structure for each module and added a common navigation tree for the entire Qt Framework to our online docs.

This is the job I'm really proud of. And thanks to my colleagues for help with this.

Kubuntu 25.04 Beta works surprisingly well on my working laptop. I love it even more than 24.10.

I missed a point when I became such a picky screenshot editor. I tried to use Krita but returned to GIMP because Krita is missing features ๐Ÿคฏ

It's wonderful that KDE is now used in Steam Decks. The larger the community, the better. Googling various tips and issue resolutions has become much easier.

Enjoying some adventures so far. Edge lost all the saved passwords. Logged in back to Gnome DE, logged back to KDE, and Edge managed to find them all. Spotify stopped playing tracks, sign out and in resolved the issue. The md previewer is broken in Kate. Using a previewer from Okular.

Migrated to KDE on a working laptop. Now I have a screenshot tool that actually works, and that allows me to edit the captured images. This makes me happy.

Today I removed Skype from my phone and dragged a Teams icon to that place. Yep, because of the latest news.

Had the chance to be part of a Hackathon at @qt-project.org

My idea was to package the ๐™ฟ๐š‘๐šŠ๐š—๐š๐š˜๐š–๐šœ๐š๐šข๐š•๐šŽ QStyle as a Qt Creator plugin.

Fun fact: when I build the entire Qt Framework on my laptop, the Edge browser just closes in several minutes. Looks like it doesn't get enough memory ๐Ÿคญ

TIL that entry level Intel N95 installed in cheap macmini-like nettops is almost as powerful as Core i5-8250U in my laptop from 2018. Yeah, that makes sense, but... Omg, time flies! I believed that oldie i5 will be significantly better than any Celeron-like cpu even in 10 years. But no.
