I Like Shared Libraries

As much as I understand why static linking everything is becoming the norm, I feel a little frustrated since I’ve found using shared libraries and dynamically loaded libraries to be incredible useful for managing complexity in large applications.

VcpkgManifest

I wrote a small powershell module to handle manipulating vcpkg manifest files. Check it out here: https://github.com/Chemiseblanc/VcpkgManifest

Responsive Desktop Design

I’ve noticed that one of the coincidental beneficiaries of responsive web design is tiled window layouts.

Confusing CMake Components

So after much confusion, I finally understand that the components related to install() statements are unrelated to the components of find_package(). The former being related to the –component flag of cmake –install and the later being closer related to export sets and (Package)Config.cmake

CUDA Pains

Writing a cross-platform cuda program that can reliably work across minor version bumps really shouldn’t be so difficult

Movie Night 10/29/21

Old by M. Night Shyamalan. Something that could only be expected by the director of Avatar (2010)

Costume Hunting Woes

No luck after three stores over five hours and I’ve learned my lesson about looking for a costume the week before Halloween until the next time I forget it.

With no ability to control the overscrolling behaviour on iOS I’ve had to alter latitude to scroll vertically when viewed on smaller screens.

Hello Netlify-CMS

A little difficult to setup for a github pages site but being able to tailor the editor to my custom content types is great.

Once the UI is more mobile friendly it’ll be just about a perfect solution for content management.

Edit: Found some css overrides for mobile

I should remove the need for titles

Other than styling fonts for the theme I should try and make adding titles optional for images and short posts.
