It is Year of the Linux Desktop, not Year of the Linux Cli.
tored··on Removing React.js from the codebase and adapting Htmx for UI interactivity (2023)
Did you try out-of-bound swap (oob) in HTMX? With that you can update any element on page, e.g. three different form elements changed due to <select> change, request returns only these three form elements with oob selectors and keep the rest of the form intact.

tored··on The CEO of Mullvad is the main financer of the Swedish Örebro party
Not that strange, Malcolm Kyeyune is a member of the Örebro Party, and he’s had a podcast together with the party leader, Markus Allard, since 2015.

Kyeyune was one of the members - along with Allard - who were kicked out of the Left Party’s youth organization in 2014 for supporting the Revolutionary Front.

One thing to remember in Swedish politics is that the old idea of the Folkhemmet ("the Home of the People") is always lurking in the background: a political mix of conservatism and socialism - Sweden as a home for Swedes, but also an egalitarian home. Some view, both on the left and the right, Folkhemmet as peak Sweden.

tored··on Canada to order military plane fleet from Sweden in shift from US suppliers
As a Great Power, Sweden had a great need for engineers to build forts, canals and other important infrastructure for the Kingdom.

These engineers came in handy when the Industrial Revolution started.

Thus Sweden has a long history of manufacturing industry.

I can highly recommend PureBasic. Still actively developed and with an active community.
tored··on Exploring Coroutines in PHP
But why pick PHP then? Why not use nodejs or similar where the language, application stack and the community is already in agreement on the execution model.

tored··on Millions are visiting the European Alternatives site. What trends are we seeing?
You have to be either naive or a shill if you believe the US didn't leverage any political control over (West) Germany with that kind of large occupational force.

How can you be an equal partner if you are occupied?
tored··on Millions are visiting the European Alternatives site. What trends are we seeing?
That is the unification treaty. If you accept that as a peace treaty then you need to at least accept that Germany, and as a consequence Europe, was vassal state until 1991. Thus the idea that Europe were equal partners with US is false.

I think what your comment proves is that many Americans are stuck in the Democrat vs Republican mindset and thinking that kind of explanation actually works in a global context.

Pax Americana is over, US is no longer capable of dictating globalization to the rest of the world, why? Because many countries has caught up.

Germany is still occupied by US without a formal peace treaty, hence de facto.
tored··on Millions are visiting the European Alternatives site. What trends are we seeing?
Correct, and that is why I argue that Europe is an vassal state, i.e. taking actions against its best interest because the overlord tells them to.

Or the Russo-Georgian war of 2008. European leaders have had plenty of time to react.

Just take the President of the EU commission, Ursula von der Leyen. She was Germany's minister of defence from 2013 to 2019.

Agree, France is somewhat of an exception.

I remember during the Chirac presidency how viciously France was attacked by the other European countries, especially my own Sweden, for doing nuclear weapons testing in the South Pacific.

Jump forward today and France is seen as a protector of Europe, especially in Sweden, because of its nuclear arsenal.

Globalization died with Covid when it became obvious that the old order no longer functioned in a world with lockdowns and pandemics, it disrupted the entire supply chain.

Then globalization died a second time with the Russia’s war in Ukraine, with the emergence of BRICS and the consequences of sanctions and the breakdown of the global monetary system.

No, Europe is a de facto vassal state to US since WW2.

What Europe didn’t understand or didn’t want to understand was the US agenda differs from Europe agenda , always has. But now they start to wake up facing this reality.

What Trump did was to pull out the rug under the European establishment, which have all built their political existence on the transatlantic cooperation.

Who is to blame? European establishment wants of course the citizens of Europe to blame Trump and not them for not preparing for this eventuality.

But the truth is that almost all of them are responsible for neglecting what is the best interest of Europe. Thus they play this game.

tored··on Italy moves to reverse anti-nuclear stance

tored··on The cost of Go's panic and recover
Isn't that what we have exception hierarchies for?
tored··on JavaScript Fatigue Strikes Back
Laravel has become highly commercialized, having raised $57 million in VC funding last year. While it remains an open-source framework, it has evolved into a full-fledged ecosystem with official services like Forge, Vapor, and starter kits (Breeze, Jetstream) that streamline development and deployment. These tools are optional, but Laravel is making it harder to install a barebones version through Composer, subtly pushing developers toward its ecosystem.

Laravel is no longer just a PHP framework; it now resembles Java Spring — an opinionated, enterprise-friendly ecosystem where everything can be connected through configuration. The focus has shifted towards businesses and teams rather than personal or hobbyist projects.

For those who prefer a more traditional framework with long-term stability and fewer commercial dependencies, Symfony remains a solid alternative.
