Never tried that, though a quick search got me this: https://superuser.com/questions/1471937/how-can-i-add-a-bcd-boot-entry-for-linux-in-windows-boot-manager-in-efi

Windows will not boot with this method. By renaming the file back to bootmgfw.efi windows will boot again but now linux won’t boot. There is no clean solution, other than switch to different computer that doesn’t have this issue. Because of issues like this I don’t recommend dual booting. Installing only Windows or only Linux is more manageable for not-tech-savvy people.

In windows EFI partition, there will be an EFI/Microsoft/bootmgfw.efi file, I usually rename it to bootmgfw.efi.bak and that allows grub to load.

I have observed that many laptops are hard-coded to boot windows whenever possible. Even with windows bootentry missing, firmware will skip Grub set to first priority and start windows. Only way to make them start Grub is to rename bootmgfw.efi to a different name.

Testcontainers uses ‘ryuk’ to clean up containers and it needs docker socket mounted within its container to work. So if you had any hardening config that prevents the docker socket access within a container e.g user namespace or SELinux then Testcontainers doesn’t work.

And I think it would be nice if Testcontainers ‘just worked’ with Podman without any additional steps.

Nothing else. Though docker socket issue was important enough.

It wants you to put dummy details as fast as you can.

It is a game, but it might also be a card grabber.

I did not make this, and you’re supposed to put dummy details there. Don’t put actual credit card information.

For me the value of podman is how easily it works without root. Just install and run, no need for sudo or adding myself to docker group.

I use it for testing and dev work, not for running any services.

No… too hard.

npm ruin dev running shittier could be a nice prank… depending on how often it gets typed.

That advertisement would be interpreted as Node C’s advertisement.

The plan is to treat public keys as node’s identity and trust mechanism similar to OpenPGP (e.g. include any node key signed by a master key as a cluster member)

Right now, none of the encryption part is done and it is not a priority right now. I need to first implement transitive node detection, actually forward packets between nodes, some way to store and manage routes, and then trust and encryption mechanisms before I’d dare to test this stuff on a real network.

The UI is desktop only for now, I’ll make the mobile UI some day.

I didn’t know the answer either, but usually you can compose solution from solutions of smaller problems.

solution(0): There are no disks. Nothing to do. solution(n): Let’s see if I can use solution(n-1) here. I’ll use solution(n-1) to move all but last disk A->B, just need to rename the pins. Then move the largest disk A->C. Then use solution(n-1) to move disks B->C by renaming the pins. There we go, we have a stack based solution running in exponential time.

It’s one of the easiest problem in algorithm design, but running the solution by hand would give you a PTSD.

Replacing “Programmers:” with “Program:” is more accurate.

Hmm… Maybe I should adjust my priorities.

I was confused for a moment, because intuitively a CPU fan would look in the same direction as it blows air, so it should look into the heatsink. The fan looking away from the heatsink seems weird to me.

Or the owner installed the fan in the wrong direction.

I was thinking along the lines of

Plenty of libraries can build the XML using structs/classes. e.g. with serde:

//Data type for row
#[derive(serde::Serialize)]
pub struct Foo {
	pub status: String,
	pub name: String,
}

//Example row
let ent = Foo {
    status: "paid".into(),
    name: "bob".into(),
}

//Example execution
sqlx::query(&serde_xml_rs::to_string(&InsertStmt{
	table: "foo".into(),
	value: &ent,
})?).execute(&conn)?;

Or with jackson-dataformat-xml:

//Data type for row
public class Foo {
    public string status;
    public string name;
}

//Example row
Foo ent = new Foo();
foo.status = "paid";
foo.value = "bob";

//Example execution
XmlMapper xmlMapper = new XmlMapper();
String xml = xmlMapper.writeValueAsString(new InsertStmt("foo", ent));
try (Statement stmt = conn.createStatement()) {
    stmt.executeUpdate(xml)
}

I don’t do JS (yet) but maybe JSX could also do similar things with XML queries.

No more matching $1, $2, … (or ? for mysql) with individual columns, I could dump entire structs/objects into a query and it would work.

Better than parameterized queries. Yes, we have stuff like query("INSERT INTO table(status, name) VALUES ($1, $2);").bind(ent.status).bind(ent.name).execute..., but that’s kind of awful isn’t it? With XML queries, we could use any of the XML libraries we have to create and manipulate XML queries without risking ‘XML injection’. e.g we could convert ordinary structs/classes into column values automatically without having to use any ORM.
