for /f "tokens=* delims= " %%f in (myfile) do
If you put delims as the last parameter, then an ending space will be included as delimiter (at the start or in the middle it won’t).

The first implementation of Compiler Explorer supports many versions of the gcc, clang and icc compilers on ARM, ARM64, AVR and x86 targets.
On the left you type your C++ code, on the right you see the resulting assembler code optionally with byte code and colorised so you can correlate the C++ lines with the assembly.
A great way to start the year: learning new things!

I got a bit fed-up with the deprecated Microsoft Silverlight reappearing as KB3056819 in each Windows Update within minutes of hiding it (I’m not alone on this, it does this when you have configured to favour the Microsoft Update Servers – that also update Office – in favour of the Windows Update Servers).
Two really odd things:
So I wanted a script that every minute could check for a Microsoft Silverlight update, then hide it.
That appeared a lot more cumbersome than I anticipated, hence this blog post.
The reason is that unlike many other operating systems, Windows does not come with a build-in package manager that you can script (there is Windows Installer, but is’s not easily scriptable).

A long time ago (2014!), [WayBack] Great tutorial on how to split older Git commits: http://bit.ly/1rE72cI – should be used with care, but this can be a lifesaver and a really useful trick… – Ilya Grigorik – Google+ pointed me the below tutorial.
It has been in my drafts since then, but recently I found it back when I needed to rebase unpushed commits. Indeed it’s a great tutorial!
Executing the git rebase --interactive concepts can be tricky as they are on a way higher level than regular git work. So sometimes you want to exit vim notifying git to stop the current action. The easiest way I found was this vim command I found at [WayBack] How to abort a git rebase in interactive editor (thanks [WayBack] Telmo Costa!):
:cx
Via the tutorial, I also bumped into a few advanced git add features:
Another very powerfull feature is
git add -pa.k.a.git add --patchwhich allows you to stage parts (or hunks) of a file.[WayBack] git add -p: The most powerful git feature you’re not using yet
You can go even further with
git add --interactiveas this blog post shows:
Back to the tutorial:
[WayBack] Going back in time to split older commits by thoughtram
Rebasing in Git allows you to go back in time to split older commits. In this article we’ll explore how to do exactly that!
git rebase –interactive
Before the tutorial explains how to amend git commits, it covers these git rebase --interactive commands:
Note that squash will combine the commit on that line with the commit on the line above it.
There is one more little trick: to limit the number of commits (that’s normally limited to the unpushed ones), add like HEAD~4 which limits it to 4 commits.
Finally you can even use this for cherry picking, which I need to put on my research list: [WayBack] git: obtain the benefits of git rebase --interactive for cherry picks – Stack Overflow

Windows 7 Disk Images – Is it just me I have noticed that my Windows 7 backup disk images fail when Windows update applies security updates, if the images are more than 2 “Monthly RollUps” old. When I click the update webpage for help, Microsoft the server returnes a “page not found”. Is Microsoft trying to tell me something?
I noticed this as well for VMs that I hardly use (and can be dormant for months): updating them takes forever and I could not find the cause.
The cause seems Microsoft changing the locations for updates, but not having the updater update in the old location any more: [WayBack] Changes to Security Update Links – MSRC.
Solution: manually download the update MSU files for your Windows + architecture combination in a directory, copying a batch file there, then run the batch file.
More details at “Solution to the long search for Windows Updates on a newly installed Windows 8.1, 7 SP1 or Vista SP2”:
Yes, you have to fiddle a bit with the WUAUSERV service, but then everything should work out well.
