kirici··on Rust’s dependencies are starting to worry me
> This whole fiasco led me tho think .... do I even need this crate at all? 35 lines later I had the parts of dotenv I needed.

"A little copying is better than a little dependency." - grab the parts that you need and then include the library only in a test to ensure alignment down the line, an idea I liked a lot.

kirici··on argp: GNU-style command line argument parser for Go
I'm implying that a statement pointing at and deriding A for doing X is useless or misleading, if every alternative to A does X, arguably even more so. The precise interpretation of a given X does not matter.

Please, do name one language that has.

kirici··on PgAssistant: OSS tool to help devs understand and optimize PG performance
libaom-av1 and libsvtav1 are both AV1, the former being the reference implementation and the latter simply far faster
kirici··on Setting up a trusted, self-signed SSL/TLS certificate authority in Linux
I've kept this in my notes

openssl genrsa -out private.key 4096 && openssl req -new -key private.key -out signreq.csr -subj "/CN=FQDN" && openssl x509 -req -days 365 -in signreq.csr -signkey private.key -out cert.crt

But ideally everyone could just use something like mkcert to take care of this

Is there any benefit in using libaom-av1 over libsvtav1 nowadays?
kirici··on VSCode’s SSH agent is bananas
The first two are forks that fundamentally did not change all that much, the latter aims to create a "true" opensource alternative of VSCode (including the ecosystem, where VSCodium falls flat) to serve as a common base for (and by) a few industry giants to build their next-gen of IDEs on top of (an "IDE framework", per their description).

As for the first two, last I checked openvscode-server was just enough to host VSCode for the browser, code-server had a few extras, like hosting at a subpath.

I'd guess that there was a mixup:

For what it's worth, we have been using code-server instead in prod (prod being internal) for over a year now.

kirici··on Yemeni Coffee Shops in Texas
That is pretty much their history

>The first coffeehouses appeared in Damascus. These Ottoman coffeehouses also appeared in Mecca, in the Arabian Peninsula in the 15th century, then spread to the Ottoman Empire's capital of Istanbul in the 16th century and in Baghdad. Coffeehouses became popular meeting places where people gathered to drink coffee, have conversations, play board games such as chess and backgammon, listen to stories and music, and discuss news and politics. They became known as "schools of wisdom" for the type of clientele they attracted, and their free and frank discourse.
