Ah, this is great! It's a step towards solving my biggest complaint with PEP 723 scripts: bad editor support.

I loved the idea on paper, but without manually creating a matching venv & installing my deps, I wouldn't get in-editor completions during development. That was fine for small things, but intolerable as the script grew. So it's still not a feature I've used much, since it made more sense to just make a real dev environment.

I'm glad to see there'll be improvements here!

Off topic, but TIL that .foundation is a TLD!

I got hit with a cryptominer on my mac mini the other day. I only noticed because I happened to sitting in the room with it and noticed the fans were working overtime. There was a process, "icloud-services", which was using 100% of the CPU. It's sort of an indictment of Apple that my first inclination was "they've got a bug that's got an infinite loop" instead of "this is malicious software".

After a reboot, I traced it back to a folder in `Library/Application Support` which included a `config.json` that mentioned gulf[.]moneroocean[.]stream, so I knew I'd been popped. Cleanup was easy enough (the files themselves, plus the launch daemon), but it's annoying.

I don't do dev work on that machine (it's really just for plex & stuff) so it must have been some sort of vulnerability in Plex (but not the one described in OP) or macOS itself. Interestingly, I was up to date on my Plex install, but my macOS version was behind what was apparently an important security update related to an RCE (Sequoia 15.8).

If you ever find yourself in southern Louisiana, the Tabasco factory on Avery Island is worth the visit! You can see the factory floor, try as many variants of the sauce as you want, and learn a ton about the history of the company.

It's also a beautiful property complete with a ecologically important bird sanctuary. Just a fascinating day!

It doesn't mention the most annoying tell- content that fades in as you scroll down a page. I'm seeing this everywhere recently and it's so distracting

Depends how much you want to automate, but all you really need is a VPN (or so I am told). There are some good docker containers that bundle the VPN, Transmission, and a dead-man's switch for the connection (allegedly)

Yeah I feel like this is the nuance that gets lost.

I hate ads, but mentioning other first party services feels very different than selling parts of the system UI like a billboard.

These service upsells should be dismissible but they seem fairly inoffensive. The App Store ads, on the other hand, are just atrocious

Right, your hobby is either 3D printing or maintaining a 3D printer, but not both

I traded a Prusa MK3S for a secondhand Bambu P1S and it was night and day. I believe the prusa could have gotten to a place where it printed well and consistently, but the P1S *just works*. It printed better out of the gate with 0 tinkering than the Prusa did after I had spent hours calibrating, testing, and re-calibrating it.

I wanted the Prusa to be just as good, which is why I started with it. I wanted to support the open ecosystem, but not at the expense of not getting to do what I actually set out to (print things nicely). It's a shame! Maybe I was holding it wrong (but again, with the Bambu, I didn't have to worry about it).

That makes sense as a personal preference for him, but it's odd for that to still be the company/project stance. Like, surely he knows he's the minority for not wanting highlighting?

I love these release notes but I really wish they would add syntax highlighting to the Go blog. I'm always a little bit surprised/disappointed whenever I land on a go.dev link since I know the code will be just a little harder to visually parse than it needs to be.

There's also different building pressures. Before, companies would want to build / power / maintain the smallest amount of data center hardware they could while still serving their needs. Overprovisioning just meant worse opex number.

Now, because supply is so constrained relative to demand, there's no limit. More is always better, which leads to a crazy amount of construction (as its negative effects).
