This is where attestation/sigstore comes into play. Github has a first-party action for it and I wish more projects would use it. Regarding javascript specifically, I believe npm has builtin support for sigstore.

Just an FYI, Stride isn't related to MonoGame or XNA. Stride was originally Paradox (and then Xenko) made by Silicon Studio. They eventually open sourced it and let the community take over.

The lead architect (I think) of Xenko also wrote SharpDX which MonoGame used for a while though.

Stride runs on the latest version of dotnet and c#. I don't have enough experience with it to know its pros and cons though.

Depending on your usage, you may not need a separate app. Jetbrains[0], Visual Studio[1] and VSCode[2] have support for http files.

For anyone wanting to follow C#'s progress on sum types and exhaustive pattern matching, you can follow/participate in the proposal[1].

Your second paragraph sounds like you're describing Avalonia. Avalonia has AOT, compile-time binding errors and cross-platform support. Maybe there have been some updates since you last tried it? I'm not very familiar with Avalonia or WPF though so maybe there's more to it than that.

In the dotnet world, SQLx is more analogous to F# type providers like FSharp.Data.SqlClient , SQLProvider or Rezoom.SQL.

There are very few F# specific features used in the book. I imagine you could follow along pretty easily with any other functional language. You can easily use F# for the book and then apply the lessons learned to another language when you're done too. It mainly shows how to use sum types, product types and function composition to implement DDD.

I'm not sure what tendencies you're referring to though. F# has been around for 20 years and has only gotten better over time.

In a similar vein, I had Western Digital Raptors striped in my gaming PC in the mid 2000s. I remember just how amazed I was after moving to SSDs.

When you have a site with a fixed, tiny amount of users, I'd opt for HTTP basic auth (via HTTPS). Whether you're using nginx, Traefik, Caddy, etc..., it's very easy to setup. If you're using something like Cloudflare Pages, I would guess you could setup a worker to handle it for you (though I'm not familiar enough with workers to be sure).

This argument, in any context, always reminds me of the fluoride episode of Parks and Rec.

Lawrence Krauss has given a talk that mentions something similar. He says that we live in a good time because we can still see "everything" around us. At some point in the far future, any observers won't be able to determine many things about the universe because the "stuff" in it will be too far away to observe.

Jetbrains' .DotSettings file is a specific example. It contains things like project specific dictionaries for the IDE's spell checker.
