But Qt is c++

why do you hate love and github

Real programmers are objective and calculative when it comes to their programs. They don't make a shit program and release it because "it's their baby"

has any of these in the name

C++ is not C nor ASM

So which toolkit is on then, if gtk is bad and qt uses c++

So what you're saying is that Windows Vista Starter is the perfect OS?

Closed source is cancer, I hope you're just baiting.

Entry level argument 2bh. Please educate yourself.

I've never met a mathematicians complaining about not being paid for being helpful.
Why do you pajeets want so much to get paid for your shit-tier garbage works?

I look for programs that have "yet another" in their name. They are always high quality.

Because being paid is an incentive to work on that code more.
Whereas if it's only a hobby other life things become way more important.

definitely will die from aids and cancer anyway/10

Ok Sup Forums i'm making a program that i will sell to someone who repairs boilers and needs to manage his customers.

I was going to make something in java and call it "termo studio" or something but they both seem bad ideas.

>Python scripts
>programs

Brb stealing idea

Why give it a fancy name if he's the only customer?

>implying it's not

I can also sell it to other people, but the market is really small. And why not?
Cool names are cool

Obviously
Then you can create an Ultimate version with more stuff and change them again.

GPL is bad because it`s not even open source. The only open source license is Public Domain (aka unlicense.) MIT and BSD are alright too.

There is nothing wrong with closed source.

Kek

You can't even bait correctly

This is really naive. Being paid is only motivational to work on projects that "will get popular" or "will sell".

Just look at how degenerate are the apps that fill the apple/play store. This is the future of programming we're heading and you can't be fine with that.

Better yet

Next year you change some small shit and charge them again.

Make sure they only have a 1 year license to use the software.

>Public Domain
I don't know if you're baiting but are you really allowed to publish your projects under public domain? I would do that. :^)

This. OP is probably rebelling against "yet another" programs because it's a trend he has recognised, but I doubt there's any reasoning behind it, other than maybe one or two "yet another" programs that he has decided he doesn't like.

If a program has "yet another" in its name, it's telling you two good things about the developer: The developer knows it's bad to unnecessarily write a NIH solution to a problem that has already been solved, hence the ironic name, but the author also has taste, so they know that another solution is necessary because the existing solutions are inadequate (this is often correct no matter what the software does, because a lot of software is crap, and there are a surprising number of problems where all the solutions are inadequate in some way or another.) You can expect "yet another" software to be aware of the flaws of its predecessors and to try to improve on them.

You forgot "Microsoft"

C# is good tho

at what?

But it's not called "Microsoft C#", is it? And no, it's not good.

MS Office >>>>>> iWork >>>>>>>>>> Libre Office

>>code of conduct

Nice.

If I see any of these, I look somewhere else:
>program is (gratis) freeware but not FOSS
>program is trialware or adware
>this:
>program is not under version control
>last commit is 2015 or earlier
>program is written in Java
>program is hosted on SourceForge
>program runs on the desktop, but is written with web technologies
>program has a pervasive non-native GUI theme (like all those .NET/Winshit programs with Office 2003-style toolbars)

> are you really allowed to publish your projects under public domain?

It's possible, but my understanding is that most copyright lawyers say it's not worth it. To do it correctly, I think you have to file some paperwork to specifically disclaim copyright, and you probably need a lawyer to make sure you get all the legal details right. Just use a CC0 license instead.

>You can expect "yet another" software to be aware of the flaws of its predecessors and to try to improve on them.

That's as realistic as expecting a new programming language to be aware of the flaws of its predecessors.

Google docs >LibreOffice > MS Office

Your arrows point the wrong way

Google docs ^ LibreOffice ^ MS Office

The Unlicense = Public Domain
not bait; truth

Xt

>glacial development pace
Quickly increasing major versions?

Except they aren't since yacc is rip and was replaced by bison like a century ago.

Not using office at all >>>>>>> ONLYOFFICE > wps office > libre office > dog shit > online shit

This. Office software is literally worse in every way to every alternative
