ASML get a lot of coverage since last year, I've had never heard of it before, and I suspect just like many.

It looked liked it emerged due to concerns about TMSC getting too much power and advance with billions on investments for semiconductors, and all of sudden all was alright since TMSC heavily relied on a dutch company.

Maybe there's more of it, I'm starting to suspect there's a submarine in there.
Yup, I did this and it's great. I also ended up assigning the thumb key to 0, since I've noticed it's used more often than other digits (and also you have to fit it somewhere, since the other ones are in a 3x3 grid).
A little tidbit is that unions in the Netherlands usually bargain for all employees, while that isn’t the case in the US in my understanding? You still get a few little union bonuses (like employers paying union fees) and bargaining by unions pre-disposed to their (usually older) membership. But all in all unions bargain for everyone, not just their members.

I'm working on hybrid mobile apps again after a long break. The number of essential packages in both the Ionic/Capacitor/Cordova and React Native ecosystems that are "looking for maintainers" (think: camera functionality) and have long lists of issues is frankly astounding, given the number of users of said packages.

An expectation to pay so the maintainers can maintain is a good thing in my book.
> all immutable programming became easy

Switching to the functional style of logic from the algorithmic style can be slightly tricky but as for immutability itself - since the introduction of for-each loops which freed us from incrementing counters I could never understand why is immutability not the default in all the popular languages. Programming algorithmically I rarely need to change a variable even in C# or Python. The fact they don't have a syntax for defining single-assign values (like val in Scala) annoyed me since I learnt Scala (which is extremely easy to start with - you can use it just as "better Java", advanced functional programming tricks are entirely optional) and realized I mostly use "val" naturally. If a variable I defined is changed - it most likely is by a mistake or some unexpected behavior taking place. Both C# and Python already have "var" to define a variable with its type inferred, why won't they add "val" to tell the compiler it can only be initialized once and never assigned again? To me it seems trivial for a compiler developer to add and also not breaking anything while bringing quite a lot of value by eliminating a whole class of bugs.

On my computer, I only use Python software that is in the Debian repos. So all dependencies are handled by Debian.

Everything else I run in a Docker container.

This way I never need a venv.

I hope these changes will not make my workflow harder.

Running 3rd party software in containers not only makes dependency handling easier. It also is a security thing. Can you really trust the whole dependency tree below any python code that you want to run? I prefer to keep it separate from my main OS.
Extracting a single SGX private key is less desirable but nonetheless practical even if the hardware gets destroyed in the process. You could load the extracted key into an emulator and do your computing that way. It just does not scale unfortunately.

Decrypting the firmware of ME or AMD PSP this way could totally work though.
You could have said that about Microsoft stock in 1990, Amazon in 1999, Google in 2011, Apple in about 2005... And about lots of forgotten flops as well.

It's mostly survival over stagnation. There were cheaper Common Lisp vendors and where are they now?

Every discussion on the internet is an argument and it is automatically treated that way by now.

Sometime if you write a response to an answer and agree with it, the original author still justifies himself because it is perceived as a counter argument. Happens more on certain platforms than on others.

Because they are afraid. They need this rigidity to feel safe and another symptom is becoming an authoritarian mind. A simple image of an enemy helps too.
I guess the two values I see are having an extra level in your varieties of punishment - a "nuclear option" perhaps.

The other is softer - I am curious how normalising pain may positively benefit a developing child. Could it build toughness? Might my child be more likely to stand up to a bully?

From a self defence perspective, a big part of personal development is overcoming aversion to pain - eg not flinching in boxing/mma.

In any case I think there are alternatives to learning these lessons and disciplining your children and I think in our environment it would do a lot of emotional damage that isn't worth the benefits - hence why I probably won't hit my children.

That said, I find it curious that only one to two generations ago it was fully the norm.
The C# compiler for example is written in C# so you need a functioning .NET runtime in order to compile the compiler and standard library. That doesn't mean you can't build from source though, there aren't any special binary blobs you need to build .NET. For example, a csc (C# compiler) built using the open source Mono runtime will work just as well as one built using an open source build of .NET Core or one built using the .NET Framework binary blobs.
It does not prevent them. The reasoning is, that those bugs are so obscure, only occuring in vanishingly rare constellations, that finding and preventing them would be prohibitively hard/expensive.
The C# compiler and parts of the supporting .NET runtime are written in C#, so yes there is a bootstrapping issue. Other languages like Rust or even C compilers written in C have this problem.

For initial porting to a new system or processor architecture, the C++ part of CoreCLR (the main runtime for .NET) can be built with CMake and LLVM on the target system. The libraries can be cross-compiled on another system that already supports .NET and copied to the target system. Some Details are here:

https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/blob/main/docs/design/core...

For building from source to satisfy requirements Linux distributions, Microsoft has a system to build from source. My understanding from the last time I closely looked at it is some binary dependencies are decompiled to MSIL (the bytecode used by .NET). Since CoreCLR includes a MSIL assembler written in C++ (ilasm), it can bootstrap using these MSIL sources. But I have not looked at this project closely in a while and it evolved quite a lot while I was watching it. The system for the source build is here:

Regardless of the origin, surely different people benefit from different kinds of learning styles.

Certainly children of different ages benefit from different kinds of approaches.

If nothing else, some people think abstractly with much less effort than others and can learn analytically very efficiently. Other's are more learn-by-example inductive types.

Not saying anyone is all one or the other, but everyone seems to be on a different point on that spectrum in my experience.

It's already the case, that's why you see some mistaken tutorials telling you to "sudo pip install".

A venv is just a dir and some path, and your os already have some dedicated to their own python install, even if it's not called a venv, but something like dist-packages + manual PATH fudging.

This proposal makes the distinction clearer by putting safeguard to NOT to mess up with the system stdlib.

You should be using "--user" or a local venv, and "-m" to call commands.

Hey, I was trying out Seaweed yesterday. I ran into an issue with HTTPS, it seems to be not very well supported at the moment.

I managed to get it running mostly secure, but replication didn't work because the volumes were calling eachother with HTTP instead of HTTPS. The HTTP request is hardcoded here: https://github.com/chrislusf/seaweedfs/blob/43fd11278ef81185... and probably in a lot of other places.

I even tried setting the address of the volume to https in the startup script, but then it makes a request to http://https://volume1.example.com and it still fails.

I also noticed that the master API is still available over HTTP even when HTTPS is enabled. I can make an issue for these things if you want.

These issues are currently the only showstopper for me. I need to have every endpoint on TLS with peer verification enabled. If you can get it fixed I will gladly continue testing seaweedfs and support you on Patreon :-)
I dont know a corporation in IT that doesnt have evaluation programs. All management expects you to get better over time.

So using the opportunity to learn from a better dev is a great objective that positively will impact not only you but also the company you work for.

On the other hand if developers stagnate and dont improve -> this is a red flag for company growth. And each corporation wants to grow. Such dev is just a bad hire and will tank the company.
For non-prod/qa/testing/dev stuff Microsoft provides MSDN/Visual Studio Subscriptions which provide specially licensed versions of their operating systems and software.

I'm not so sure anymore, after looking at the standard again. It says that it's okay to access any object via a glvalue of type char, unsigned char, or std::byte; note that this does not include arrays of the same. If you have a field of array type, and you subscript it, the expression does involve a glvalue of that array type as one of the operands - but does this constitute "access"?
Not really comparable to the problem with Google you're pointing to. Google's services are free, here we have tickets from paying customers.

I've never opened a ticket to Google as paying customer so I don't know for sure but unless someone comes and confirms that same crap is happening even if you pay we can't really compare those two cases and Docker is worse for simple reason that it demands payment yet ignores paying customers.

In a world of cheap nuclear electricity, more possibilities would open up in these other areas like smelting etc. It would be possible to have a higher carbon tax, use more electricity-derived heat for industrial processes (even just electrolyze and burn hydrogen if needed).

Farming is a tricky one but again, with cheap electricity things like hydroponics become more feasible. A lot of things are physically possible but simply ruled out by the economics of energy cost.
I would say its pretty simple. It comes down to the business model that got someone rich.

If the business model is aligned with customers and has positive external impacts on society, generally even selfish moguls will act in a way beneficial to everyone.

If the business model is in any way significantly misaligned with any of its stakeholders, or incurs external costs, the richer it gets, the greater the incentive and growth dependency on doing more worse things, ignoring or hiding damage, be deceptive, etc.

s/legal/social/

The legal system is just a buttress for social norms and conventions; and if the latter break down, there's not much hope for the former.

Of course, there are many legal issues that genuinely need lawyers and courts - for example, where there is real disagreement as to the meaning of a legal text such as a contract. But on the whole, the role of courts and lawyers is to tidy-up around the edges; if society only worked because of courts and lawyers, then it wouldn't really be working at all.

> Inside the body is going through a massive stress response that is similar to what your body would be doing if you were fleeing an armed assailant. All the time.

This right here... is important, and something I don't think most are aware of. It's also something I don't think one can fully understand without having experienced it.

I have been mugged at gunpoint/knifepoint and also had bullets fired in my direction in an attempted carjacking (thank you downtown St. Louis) at an earlier time in my life. The fight or flight reflex was definitely about as strong as you might imagine it would/should be in that situation, perhaps slighty dampened by a hobby that required a lot of situational awareness/vigilance.

Cue coming down with a pretty severe chronic physical illness a couple years later and no financial means nor support to fully deal with it (fuck Vascular Ehlers Danlos and Thoracic Outlet Syndrome) - obviously, some severe depression comes with the hopelessness of things like this. The fight or flight reflex... just, came on as symptoms became severe. It was quite noticable and fluctuated in severity the first month or so, but soon became an all encompassing baseline normal... now going on for years.

Simply put, figuratively, I could walk straight up to somebody shooting at me and touch them on the face without any fear/monkey brain instinct to save my life. Literally, I would likely be quickly dead because bullets do that to you and it's not hard to hit somebody walking straight up to you. I really do not mean this in a suicidal sense whatsoever, just the fact that there is absolutely no further stress response from any situation I may find myself in, no matter how dangerous (well, I haven't been plastered in easily visible US military gear in the middle of Afghanistan with people shooting at me, so perhaps I may be slightly too full of myself).

But, the stress response one would normally get that invokes the fear and adrenaline to run away from imminent dangers, it essentially no longer suddenly happens, as it's just been a part of daily life for so long. I can't walk down a busy street without the instant mental registration of where every sound I'm able to hear is coming from. Basically, extreme hypervigilance. It is outright extremely exhausting, and once in a blue moon slightly convenient (like when not having realized the bar you're coming out of at 2am is less than a block from Skid Row and you've got quite a walk to get where you're headed).

I wish more people were aware of this aspect of this mental illness, and I very much hope that there's not a point of no return from it. Something makes me think that there has to be though - whether that's years, or decades of the non-stop fight or flight stressor, and perhaps dependent on what portion of your development you experience it in.
I do feel these limitations daily. Sometimes I feel I have this knack where when I start using something it immediately breaks whenever I want to do something that is a little bit outside the happy path. It's frustrating.

I will grant you that the situation concerning copy/paste as a whole is "not great", I have certainly run into issues before. But this interaction where selecting a word either by dragging a mouse along some text, double or triple clicking to select and then being able to paste this text somewhere else just by pressing the middle-mouse button is just really god computing.

Crucially: This is a very local interaction that does not interact with my clipboard at all. Which lets me copy two things at the same time. I use this all the time for copying/pasting username/password combos.

But that reminds me - the correct way to do this is setting up my password manager to do it for me...

I am interested in the "transport station" you described. I am currently trying to find a way to seamlessley working on multiple computers at the same time, and a shared clipboard like that would be really iteresting. Also to synchronize to my phones' clipboard. Do you have some already written notes on the issues that you ran into ?

That is pretty much what Windows 10 does. Okay, maybe not quickly switch to the new version as we all know that it can take 10 - 20 minutes sometimes, but here is the thing. By default it reboots and install the updates when I sleep so I don't notice this. It always puzzles me when I hear that Windows suddenly starts to install updated while you are doing something, because that is not the default. The default is to install and reboot outside of your normal working hours. Best guess is that many people turn off their computer when they don't use it. In that case it is only possible to install the updates while you use that machine.
