I use Signoz for my private purposes, it's not a 100% match, but you can do Prometheus metrics, logs analysis, dashboards, alerts, OTEL spans so depending on your usecase it can be enough

Or meson is a serious alternative to cmake (Even better than cmake imho)

If the GDPR is simplified, the fines should be drastically raised. (At least for companies) E.g. to minimum 20% of the global last years revenue, for bigger companies (FAANG-Scale) to minimum 70% of the revenue. The GDPR must make companies afraid of breaking the law.

The biggest symbol of a statically linked swift binary that I have, is icudt_swift65_dat with 27.98MB, so I think that's not so easy to remove (nm v3.1.2 --size-sort --radix=d|swift demangle) And I think if you strip debuginfo it will be smaller (For a statically linked program of mine: 98MB -> 56MB)

But I think for a distribution it makes more sense to link swift programs dynamically against the runtime libraries, like it's the case for e.g. the C standard library, OpenSSL etc., as you can assume they all work with the same version and are ABI-compatible.

I tested it with a nearly static build (Still links against glibc and friends): 55MB get stripped to 44MB, so not that much. 27MB of that is icudt_swift65_dat, so I guess you would have to optimise that first

Yes, but people still have the right to say "Pay us $X and ensure safe working conditions or we strike" Tesla can either withdraw or negotiate. Nobody's right is infringed here, it's just free market. Especially as usually the workers have it worse than companies.

One is a business decision, the other one is people exercising their rights.

You can do that with m3u8 files. This is done for example by Pluto TV. Sure it is easily circumvented by simply stripping out these URLs, especially if they are marked as ads (And removing a m3u8 tag)

But in the end it would be again an arms race of adblockers and Google, so it would change basically nothing.

Wouldn't even be checking Microsoft's server be an unnecessary connection? You could argue, that VSCode would still work, as updates are basically optional and could be triggered manually, too

It's easy to install on ArchLinux and Fedora. The build process seems to be just standard CMake, so calling it "borderline impossible" is really a stretch.

A lot of editors have available integrations for Shellcheck. VSCode and IntelliJ have a plugin, GNOME Builder comes with the plugin included, etc.

This really makes me reconsider buying an iPhone instead of some android phone in the future.

The only thing left is that jail-breaking an iPhone seems to be harder than rooting an android phone.
