(x86-64, Windows) Pushing variable to stack for call
Intel's manuals: fantastic reference once you learn how to read it. I looked up push in here when I helped you, which is how I knew there was no 64-bit immediate push. I use it so often I built a tool to quickly jump to specific mnemonics: x86-index builds an index and x86-lookup opens the PDF to the right page (works on Windows given a proper shell).

Linux graphics from scratch
I know what you mean, which is part of why I don't run any of the mainstream desktop environments. Instead I run Openbox (config) without a taskbar or anything like that. If I really want to focus, or I'm working on a remote machine, then I'll fullscreen the terminal (not maximize, actually fullscreen) and essentially just use tmux as my window manager.

gtk-rs: can't get window ID with command inside connect_show or connect_realize

My (challenging) experience building a window switcher for Ubuntu
Eventually, I needed to find the ID of windows, move them, and bring them to the front—I realized I couldn't do that with gtk-rs. I needed to interact with the window manager (X11 server). So from inside my application, I ran commands that called xdotool.

I cannot take it any longer, please, help!
You might be able to use audacity in the background by setting up an application launcher in the gnome panel that executes xdotool, which can send keyboard signals (like R for record) to running applications: https://github.com/jordansissel/xdotool

Ask HN: What's Your Proudest Hack?
I often create screen recordings for my classes, but it's very boring and time consuming. I'm a perfectionist, and if I mistype a command I prefer to re-record everything. Moreover, every time one of the tools used in the videos gets a significant update, I feel compelled to redo the video.
I have started using xdotool [1] to create bash scripts that send mouse clicks and keystrokes to apps. Interleaving calls to xdotool with the "sleep" command [2] produce a convincing effect. If I need to redo a video to fix typos or after a program update, I just fix the bash script and restart the recording.
Alas, the only thing that is missing in my videos is the sound of keyboard clicks… But nothing is perfect!
