It's a shellscript that they encrypted. They decrypt it and feed the decrypted output immediately into the shell, to be sourced.

That encrypted secrets file could contain any shellscript, so the aliases are stored in there, together with the API-Keys and passwords.

I chose what happens after. Can recommend. I wasn't even aware of my privilege.

This website

1. reacts well to my system preference of a dark theme in my news-reader

2. has a toggle at the top for dark theme

3. works flawlessly with DarkReader in my browser

Until I saw your comment, I didn't even know the website had a light version.

Again: What?

You can also create a struct, put your "global" variable inside it and then put all the functions that need the variable into an Impl block of that struct. If you then add the parameter `&self` to these functions, you can access the "global"variable any time via `self.global_variable`.

If that is not enough, then you can always make an actual global variable by first wrapping it in a Mutex, to prevent simultaneous access and then wrapping that in an Arc for Atomic Reference Counting. That allows you to pass "copies" of that variable around anywhere, satisfying the borrow-checker (since the variable is now reference-counted in a thread-safe way).

If you need a lot of parallel reading, replacing the Mutex with an RwLock is a good idea, since it allows locking from multiple threads, if you want to read it in most cases.

You can easily write code that does not contain any possible panic points, if you want.

Anything I missed, that explains this?

What now?

Why is this needed?

Edit: clarification

What about the demolishing of government agencies that DOGE is trying (and sometimes succeding) in? You call it "termination of employees", but don't seem to consider that they tried to fire jugdes who restrained their power. This looks to me like a plain powergrab. I hope I don't need to tell you where something like this leads, but I am certain it's not going to be democratic or respectful of civic freedoms.

As a non-straight non-binary (neither cis-male or -female) person, the US is currently just about the last place I want to be. If the current trend continues, then I genuinely fear for the lives of some of my friends.

In my masters degree, there was another course, where one built their own computer PCB in Eagle, got it fabbed and then had to make a game for the 8052 CPU on there. 8052 assembly is very fun! The processor has a few bytes of ram where every bit is individually addressable and testable. I built the game Tetris on three attached persistence of vision LED-Matrices[1]. Unfortunately, the repository isn't very clean, but I used expressive variable names, so it should be readable. I did create my own calling convention for performance reasons and calculated how many cpu cycles were available for game logic between screen refreshes. Those were all very fun things to think about :)

Reading assembly now has me look up instruction names here and there, but mostly I can understand what's going on.

Automat's objective is to be able to semi-autonomously play a variety of games. It's the first step towards a more general environment for interacting with computers.

Currently Automat's functionality is limited to keyboard macro recording & playback. It's fairly unstable but if you're lucky and it runs on your machine, it can be useful for automating some basic actions.

You can also setup your own dependency registry and only work with that.

This is very common in embedded contexts, where you can take nothing for granted.
