For anyone who doesn’t understand why Palestinians have every reason to fear they are now facing permanent expulsion: Here is a thread with quotes from the Israeli defense establishment this month. No comment. Just direct quotes. Here’s the first one.

@BruceDawson0xB is the kernelbase unhandled exception handler still trying to do a LoadLibrary and thus deadlocking on an SRWLock from the initial LoadLibrary call? I spent months tracking down a related bug 😭

On September 20th, I will be giving my first talk ever at my local @remix_run NYC meetup. I'm going to be talking about Why Accessibility Matters. This talk will cover common web accessibility mistakes, best practices, and how accessibility can fit within your coding workflow.

@mgattozzi if you've still got some tomatoes left, tomato jam is pretty great!

We made ~2 Gallons/~8 Liters of sauce this weekend with a box of tomatoes from our local farm and it only cost $20 bucks. We're gonna be set for awhile

@TheAmyCode *looks at the loaf of bread I bought _ weeks ago of which I ate 4 slices* yes

the more i think ab oppenheimer the more i'm like.........we really didn't need this movie? chris nolan, always making movies absolutely no one asked for

@TheAmyCode oh! so that's what that was

@timmisiak woo! a non-windbg option is great for scripting repros while grabbing a time travel trace. this certainly beats trying to remember all the tttracer flags since the inbox version has no help 😅

Ttd.exe is very powerful and has some functionality that isn't exposed from the windbg UI. Worth reading through the options available here!

@ash2x3 @majin_shinsa afaik it's the same idea behind how WSL2's GPU acceleration works. but yea, no idea how feasible that is to setup for a random hyperv vm

@majin_shinsa @ash2x3 you can! github.com/jamesstringerp…

@ManishEarth @eggleroy lol that definitely made me do a double take 😂

the other day @eggleroy observed that Devanagari has the nice vowel length distinctions you need for Akkadian, and Semitic scripts have all the right consonants (etymologically) so we made this, the objectively superior transcription method for Akkadian enjoy!

@yarden_shafir I use it all the time... to kill the audio service when it decides my mic no longer exists right before a meeting

Do people know about the browser task manager? It's pretty cool

@timmisiak wouldn't discount wasm based on speed necessarily. wasmtime can do both runtime and ahead-of-time compilation to native code. bytecodealliance.org/articles/wasmt…

One possibility I've thought about was to support extensions via WASM. That would be best for something that's "script-like" but maybe not good for something that needs high performance like interpreting/parsing a binary file.

If you were writing something in Rust and you wanted to support "extensions" from a variety of languages, how would you do it? You could do a C ABI, but I feel like there must be better options at this point, right?

@TheAmyCode those look amazing but the lines 😭

@smolzoey for a big hammer you can block installing/updating drivers via windows update or otherwise on a per-device basis tenforums.com/tutorials/1465…

And it means I'm yet again upgraded to broken ass drivers that I DON'T WANT. Windows, there is a reason why I'm running older drivers, please fuck off and don't fucking do that shit. What a fucking piece of shit of an operating system.

Fucking Windows thought it'd be fucking funny to update my graphic drivers while I'M WATCHING A MOVIE AND SCREENSHARING IT.

@nikomatsakis @rustlang MutexGuard is a classic example for a non-Send type in std. Unlocking a mutex must happen on the same thread that grabbed the lock initially on some platforms.

@BruceDawson0xB Looks like memory ownership troubles with winrt rpc calls. Someone's calling a winrt method in Windows.Cortana.Desktop.dll that runs in a separate RuntimeBroker.exe process. The marshalling code and some other cleanup seem to be confused about who should be freeing hstrings.

me: *glance over at a friend's laptop to see the Unicode 9 spec is open* them: "it's not what it looks like" 🤣

@xlerb that is one of the few error codes I've involuntarily committed to memory (5) 🥲

@ManishEarth @Gankra_ @steveklabnik so LTO 🤔

@Gankra_ @steveklabnik hot take there should be a mode where `extern crate` works like `mod`
