As a heavy user of Pulumi for C# projects this looks highly promising, and the Azure ecosystem has a large number of .NET / C# focused developers that are either fighting with bicep or terraform (or Pulumi), who would also find this very useful.

Apart from the fact that C# examples seem to be lacking from the documentation at the moment, I’d also be interested to know if there is, or will be support for managed identities?

Edit. Just found the C# examples. Reading through now.

We are predominantly switching over to managed identities only to avoid key rotation hassles, and Entra workload federated identities in pipelines to remove those hardcoded identities in our pipelines.

I also wonder how you deal with combined function deployments. For example we deploy function apps or message consumers that process multiple message types as a bounded context, in one single app. I assume that Nitric would deploy each function endpoint as a separate app container?

Regardless of those niggles, I love the concept of combining the code and the infrastructure definitions together.
This... Has to be someone familiar with this process/situation I would think. Unless the county posts all of the information required to pull off such a scam online (to be transparent or something).

Still, how would they know when payment was due, amounts, that it hasn't already been paid, etc. I think someone is going to get caught.
The fact that JavaScript is essential to modern society makes me want to cry.
You're right, but there's a lot of people here making excuses predicated on treating entirely socially-voluntary problems (like providing no public transport, or allowing regulatory capture to inflate costs) as laws of nature.
I'll share a lengthy anecdote (from CO, not OH), of how absurd these suspensions can get in strange edge-cases. Also, i think this shows how most processes have "bugs", but people don't think of them that way when it isn't in software.

One day, while helping someone get their car out of an impound, i was informed by the officer on duty that my license was not showing as valid. They couldn't tell why though, said the status/notes listed made no sense to her, and i should contact the Denver office to find out what is going on. I was rather confused, as it had been many years since i had last been pulled over, for a minor speeding ticket.

Denver was similarly confused by the details. After some research, they tell me what appears to have happened was i paid my ticket years ago by check, in person. They recorded they received the check on time, but either due to a clerical error or something (they aren't sure), a late fee was assessed on my ticket prior to the payment being processed. The fee was, i think, $5.

Around this same time, i moved, and while i changed my address with the USPS, i didn't with the DMV. The DMV was thus sending my "you owe us $5" letters with "Do Not Forward" instructions via the USPS, who were knowingly delivering the mail to the wrong address (my old place).

When i discovered all of this, years later, my license had been suspended for 54 weeks due to delinquency. In CO, if your license has been suspended for over 1 year, you may not just satisfy the debt, you must also retake your driving test. But since i didn't take my original test in CO, i would also need to re-apply for a permit and pass a written permit exam before being allowed to schedule my drivers test.

The poor lady i spoke with in the Denver office recognized the sheer absurdity of everything she was telling me, but could do nothing to fix it. She also let me know the outstanding debt was now $15.

If 99.9% of people can be exposed to the same malicious code and not even be aware that it was running in the background, it's all the more reason for a malicious actor to expose the largest amount of people to it with relatively minimal risk.

I'm always hesistant about articles about how a product is good written by the company making the product.

However, when it comes to solutions to problems "Separation of Concerns" is the best solution. I don't want my application code telling azure what resources to make. I want to tell azure what resources to make, and I want to be 100% sure that what is created is what I want because we're talking about something that costs my company money to run it.

While Terraform is a lot of code to get something defined and started (and I do think there's room for improvement), the degree of what you can define with it and how much you control are the key selling points.
> Though the specific example you linked was largely solved with Python 3

I can assure you it absolutely was not.

> I think you'll find the further you delve into it the less the problems are distinct, a lot of the issues with the module import system, pip, virtualenv, setuptools, etc. is because they are designed with having to support a vast range of things, from being depended on to interact with system libraries to downloading sdists and compiling arbitrary languages, etc.

Not really. There are plenty of systems that have to "support a vast range of things" that aren't this bad.

In my opinion it's because the core Python devs didn't particularly care about the issue, never really tried to solve it, and as a result we have 10 incompatible half-baked third party solutions.

It's similar to the situation with C/C++ - worse in some ways, better in others (at least there is a de facto package registry in Python). In some ways it's because both languages are very old and predate the idea that packaging should be easy and reliable. That's fine, but please don't pretend that it is easy and reliable now.
Absolutely. One of the big dangers of obtaining LSD right now isn't just the effects of LSD itself, it's the risk of getting something else like NBOMe that could flat-out kill you. A regulated market would allow the purchase of real, clean LSD, without the risk of more dangerous substitutes.

People have taken less than a few doses of NBOMe and died. Meanwhile there are no known deaths by LSD overdose, people have taken thousands of doses of LSD and lived.

Anatomy of a Genocide: Report of human rights in the Palestinian territories [pdf]
If your program has nice boundaries, an alternative to realloc is to just calloc far more memory than you are ever likely to need. Obviously this is a bad idea in certain circumstances, but works really nicely for things like a compiler with well defined entry/exit points. With this technique, you only need one branch in the up allocator to check for an oom (or you can yolo and remove this check if you are quite sure you won't oom).

In code, I essentially implement bump allocation (for a global allocator, though this could be adapted easily to reference an arena) in the following way:

static unsigned char *__mem_base = 0;
static unsigned char *__mem_limit = 0;
static unsigned char *__mem_current = 0;

void init (size_t max_mem) {
__mem_base = (unsigned char*) calloc(1, max_mem);
__mem_current = __mem_base;
__mem_limit = __mem_base + max_mem;
}
#define ALLOC(name, type) \
type *name = (type *) __mem_current; \
__mem_current += (sizeof(type) + 0x7) & ~0x7; \
if (__mem_current >= __mem_lim) { fprintf(stderr, "OOM %d", __LINE__); exit(1) }

I tend to use a huge value like 1GB for max_mem, which I know is extremely unlikely to be triggered when compiling a normal sized source program.
I don't think that is the 'gotcha' you think it is. It's still a debt trap for poor people that destroys lives. Robbing people of their ability to drive and earn a living for failing to make child support payments is so self-defeating and malicious it's crazy.

But in any case, I was never blaming the guy. I'm sure I would have blown up my SATA drives in exactly the same way. I'm only saying that from now on, the paranoid, like me will always check the voltages on a new power supply output pins before I use them. He did actually check them after he realized the problem. It doesn't take long to check. You don't need to send it out to a lab as was suggested.
My daughter could benefit from this technology. I have mixed feelings about it, as current regulation in the USA seems to not make much difference between resource-use for entertainment and that for medical reasons, leading to significant contributions to climate change in the name of having fun.
I think you'll find that even that is much quicker than twiddling lines via boundary scan. At best, JTAG boundary scan is basically one giant shift register generally hundreds to thousands of bits long. Every cycle you'd need to shift out the whole thing even if you change the state of one signal.
If you actually code in go there, they expect you to handle it yourself though by not orphaning goroutines. Err groups or similar will take care of this. Basically it's people writing bad code because they can. There's already options to handle it available.
It's also an Infocom game!
Bicep is fantastic. But it compiles to ARM, so it's still limited by ARM's weaknesses and gaps, in addition to the underlying general instability of Azure and the inconsistencies from the Resource Providers. As well, Bicep is declarative- which is elegant in theory, but the stateful design of Terraform can cover up some of those underlying ARM/Azure gaps in practice. The deployment stacks approach on Azure should help further, but there's still a long way to go.
All of its? Read my comments, because I practice what I preach ;)
ICMP (the protocol ping uses) is a totally separate protocol from TCP and UDP. Blocking ICMP can break of lot of things and offers no real benefits outside of a handful of specific edge cases.

BTW your assumption "a successful ICMP ping = TCP and UDP work" is an extremely common one that I too had before I was taught otherwise.

10+ years ago I wrote a GreaseMonkey userscript for a dating site that collected all your results into one scrollable table. It exercised very explicit control over the image loading sequence. If I recall (and my memory might be spotty), it grabbed 1 thumbnail image per match initially, in the order they were displayed, to populate the table. Once all the thumbnails were pulled (which didn't take very long), it would start downloading full sized images, in the background. Hovering a match to view more details would immediately prioritize that matches photos, and if you hovered over one of said match's photo thumbnails (as if to click) that specific image would be placed at the top of the queue.

It was all done using Javascript (no frameworks) and XmlHttpRequest, and worked pretty well. This was back when servers only allowed you a couple (or handful) of connections at a time. I wrote a "TaskQueue" class in Javascript implementing a very simple form of cooperative multitasking (jobs designed to do their work in chunks). Tasks could "preempt" others, and you could define simple relationships so a group of tasks could block on one they were dependent on.

Funny story, I actually sent a link to the tool to a girl on the site who I eventually wound up in a long-term relationship with ("here, let me help you make it more efficient to browse for other guys...").

Anyway, at the time I felt like it was table stakes that a page like this should be able to exert some sensible control over the sequencing and prioritization of its image assets, in a fashion that has the user's best interests at heart. I'm glad browsers have finally evolved out-of-the-box attributes like "loading=lazy", but I kind of wish there were an option between "eager" and "lazy" that simply deferred the lazy content until all the other content is done. So I can still walk away to get a coffee (or switch to another tab) and come back to a fully, instantly-responsive page.
Federation is the future because politics demands it. As more and more social media platform turn into an intelligence gathering and an information warfare tool, countries around the world will make stricter laws to restrict the current American and Chinese owned BigTech moats of social media platform. We are already seeing this with new data privacy laws or stringent restriction or even outright banning of the platform (as China has done). This is a huge headache for American and Chinese government because such restrictions impairs their current online intelligence programs. The obvious solution is to partly sacrifice the profits of the BigTech to keep the data flowing. We'll soon find inter-operability being forced on platforms (like iMessage or WhatsApp). More "open" protocols will be pushed and standardised slowly to make it difficult to impose political restrictions and weaken privacy laws (because the message will be that BigTech are no longer in control, but "the people" and every government wants to spy on its citizens). Just look at email to realise how these things eventually end up - how many of you run your own email servers, and successfully ensure that your mails aren't bocked by "spam" services? Federation is good and necessary. But we are now decades past from the idea of "controlling our data".

I'll actually expand on this, because I think it gets at an interesting point, and at a fundamental 'bet' I'm making.

The approach I use should work if there are sufficient 'scaleable' ways to improve accuracy and choose the right phrases. Language analysis, NLP, LLMs etc all help here, and there are many methods I can still use and will add over time. I'm very much at a proof of concept stage right now!

This approach won't work if accuracy improvements quickly reach diminishing returns and an explosion of rules and/or human proofing to handle edge cases are required.

I'm hoping for the former!
I know it can be done. NOR boot flashes like this were typically written and verified via boundary scan at manufacturing time. That's probably how this flash was initially written.

My personal static site generator (https://hg.sr.ht/~zck/site-generator, generating https://zck.org/ and https://theflyingbuffalo.com/) is written in Arc. It's a very fun place to program.

I've used other Lisps, but Arc for me fits a very enjoyable programming space. There's a small enough core that I don't have to spend a lot of time figuring out, say, how to change logging levels or why Spring isn't parsing a POST body into the object it's supposed to be. But it's also large enough that I don't need to rewrite an http handler.
It’s already possible to hide the Photos app from the system, so you are wrong on the facts. And the photos app is a lot more like the compressor in your fridge, not like the contents of it. But the point of reasoning by metaphor a lot of commenters on here employ is to obfuscate any assertions. So what do you think: should OS vendors not be allowed to supply default software beyond a kernel? The Settings app should also be customizable? And this is good for users how?

> Abuse of a dog or cat is a crime against civilization itself.

That logic doesn't follow. If dogs predate civilization, then how could it be a crime against civilization? Your article is about dogs in primitive hunter gatherer societies. Not civilizations. Besides, many civilizations have thrived abusing dogs and cats. You might want to read what the bible says about 'unclean' dogs. Or why we have the saying 'there is more than one way to skin a cat'.

Or how 'civilizations' dispatched of dogs not too long ago.

https://archive.nytimes.com/cityroom.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/...

Not to mention the millions of cats/dogs that are 'euthanized' every year or the hundreds of million of cats and dogs that are castrated ( which people oddly don't consider to be abuse ). Heck, it's not hard to argue that imprisoning animals in your home as 'pets' is abuse.

If anything, civilization is an abuse against dogs and cats.

The EU has its own subsidy programmes as well but it is a lot more complex. You need 27 governments to agree to make something happen, from 400.000 people Malta to 80.000.000 million people Germany. The small countries are terrified to be squashed by German and French power to give subsidies to their own national company, ruining the single market.

In fact you have the same issue in the US but the states have no direct say, and statistics are not done the same way - so you don't see the impact the same way and don't have discussions the same way.
