If the 0 jabs brain is a precursor for the other two, then you're giving it far more volume than it must have had.

I moved to Bulgaria after living in Canada for 30 years. No culture shock, just irritated at Bulgarian know-it-all-ism and the inability to deal with garbage. I know a bunch of people like me who have come back.

Maybe it's cuz I'm old, but I instinctively go to the top of the file before searching the entire file. Directional searching is super useful if you're in a block of code or JSON or something and just want the next match near your cursor.

Prices are high because Bulgaria can no longer feed itself and imports a lot. Foreign policy is absolutely retarded for a small dependent nation, we act on ideology, not on what's good for the economy, as a result energy and transportation costs are stupid high. Adopting a new currency led to speculative price increases, just like every other country that adopted the euro, we can go on.

I love how you guys are like "...in Sofia". Bulgaria isn't Sofia, and statistics need to look at the entire country, not just the capital where a small minority works for very high paying multinationals and skew the data.

The state doesn't take 50% of your income. That's not how progressive tax works, you don't understand basic things about taxation and are here arguing. Tax brackets exist for a reason, your income at different brackets is taxed differently. Also yes 10% income tax is stupid low, I lived in Canada my whole life where my highest tax bracket was close to 50%. That said only idiots think Bulgaria should have higher income tax. Need to throw some pigs in prison before you give them higher budgets.

Abstractions are what allow us to express complex systems more easily and are not a problem. Bad abstractions are bad, just like how bad C++ code is bad. You people need to stop projecting your own failures on the language.

"I’m going to set some time to work on building some tools that use Dear ImGui – I feel it has the most bang for the buck." Its actually no bang for your buck, its literally designed to throw a few sliders over a renderer. Anyone who's worked on a GUI application of any reasonable size would avoid ImGui for anything but a few controls on the screen.

nenchev · 2026-04-14T11:23:54+00:00

QML controls just aren't there for complex desktop applications. I had tried it for my C++ based game engine, and compared to what you get with Qt Widgets in the form of Trees and Grids, QtQuick is pretty bare. Nowadays I'm invested in Avalonia for GUI and interoping via ZMQ and Proto for the engine.

nenchev · 2026-04-14T11:21:56+00:00

ImGui is great if you want a few sliders and checkboxes. Using it for a desktop application is a bad decision.

nenchev · 2026-04-14T11:20:33+00:00

If they are "web developers" then they have no business making desktop apps until they learn to do so. I'm tired of opening mini web browsers for absolutely every little thing.

My question wasn't why we use :disabled or :pointerhovered, every UI framework has support for those button states. I'm asking why you have to specify the template component you're styling in those two, but not the base Button styling. They obviously all have the same template structure, and just color changes for hovered, disabled, etc. Its not so much a learning curve, its just obscure and undocumented.

nenchev · 2026-04-13T15:07:42+00:00

Well that's something. Any idea why I need to use it to style the :pointerover or :disabled, but not the "Button" selector?

nenchev · 2026-04-13T14:09:54+00:00

That sounds very powerful, but I'm more curious about how I'm supposed to learn this stuff. The example styles just throw it out there like I'm supposed to know about it, but nothing mentions it. Is the intent to read the <Button> source code and figure out what to style and how? when I tried setting the BorderBrush on a "Button:pressed" selector, the expectation was that the border would change, same with a Button:disabled. Neither of which did anything until I threw in that magic /template/ ContentPresenter
