fork() is evil; vfork() is goodness; afork() would be better; clone() is stupid

I recently happened upon a very interesting implementation of popen() (different API, same idea) called popen-noshell using clone(2), and so I opened an issue requesting use of vfork(2) or posix_spawn() for portability. It turns out that on Linux there's an important advantage to using clone(2). I think I should capture the things I wrote there in a better place. A gist, a blog, whatever.

This is not a paper. I assume reader familiarity with fork() in particular and Unix in general, though, of course, I link to relevant wiki pages, so if the unfamiliar reader is willing to go down the rabbit hole, they should be able to come ou

Gnome to Wine color scraper
This is a Python script to extract GNOME/GTK's color scheme and apply it to Wine, so that the themes (approximately) match.
Instructions:
1. Set your Gnome theme as you would like it
2. Run with a command like "python wine_colors_from_gtk.py" If made executable you can run it in bash as-is
3. Open winecfg, go to Desktop Integration and install the new .theme file created
4. Hit apply and restart any apps running in Wine. They should match the Gnome theme colors now.
Better description with screenshots here: http://www.endolith.com/wordpress/2008/08/03/wine-colors/

GRUB2 Theme With grub-mkstandalone

Problem

grub-mkstandalone creates an image designed to be held in memory. grub-mkstandalone comes with a --themes flag that could be used to specify a theme, but depending on the modules installed, you may encounter this error like I did.

grub-mkstandalone: error: core image is too big (0x1d71b3 > 0x78000).

This means that the image generated by grub-mkstandalone was too large.

Inline Webpack CSS Modules classNames, reducing bundle size. https://npm.im/constant-locals-loader

constant-locals-loader for Webpack

This loader optimizes the output of mini-css-extract-plugin and/or css-loader, entirely removing the potentially large CSS classname mappings normally inlined into your bundle when using CSS Modules.

Run npm install constant-locals-loader, then make these changes in your Webpack config:

A small state-of-the-art study on custom engines

CUSTOM GAME ENGINES: A Small Study

a_plague_tale

WARNING: Article moved to separate repo to allow users contributions: https://github.com/raysan5/custom_game_engines

A couple of weeks ago I played (and finished) A Plague Tale, a game by Asobo Studio. I was really captivated by the game, not only by the beautiful graphics but also by the story and the locations in the game. I decided to investigate a bit about the game tech and I was surprised to see it was developed with a custom engine by a relatively small studio. I know there are some companies using custom engines but it's very difficult to find a detailed market study with that kind of information curated and updated. So this article.

Nowadays lots of companies choose engines like [Unreal](https:
