Another thing to try: [Wayback/Archive] makerbymistake on Twitter: “Can’t help myself and have to post more pics of this thing. Cheers to @Raspberry_Pi for providing great documentation on how to make a #CM4 carrier board. Thanks to so many folks that shared their designs also. So many more ideas in my head, so little time.”

In potentially multi-threaded .NET Console applications, ensure `Console.EnsureInitialized` gets called for at least output, and potentially for input
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/07/02
An interesting issue at [Wayback/Archive] Khalid ⚡️: “I just used #JetBrainsRider to find a deadlock scenario in #dotnet that I would not have guessed would deadlock. The Console needs to be initialized since the initialization uses a lock the first time. Using it in parallel tasks causes deadlocks. #dotnet This is excellent tooling!…” – Mastodon.
It boils down to a non-public Console.EnsureInitialized method being called from multiple threads causes deadlocks. So far, it looks it can only be called as part of referring to Console.In or Console.Out.
I could only find one potentially related bug, which is [Wayback/Archive] NativeRuntimeEventSource behaving poorly in conjunction with other providers · Issue #88011 · dotnet/runtime · GitHub and being worked on, for .NET 9 or later:

Reminder to self: write a Bookmarklet that shortens YouTube URLs to the youtu.be ones
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/07/02
When sharing YouTube videos via the mobile apps, they are shortened using the youtu.be domain.
So this is a reminder to write a Bookmarklet based URL-shortener myself for this and extend it so it also understands the various YouTube URL parameters (like start time).
The transformation is documented:

GitHub – KirillOsenkov/LargeAddressAware: A build tools package that adds support for making 32-bit exes LARGEADDRESSAWARE (and some words on a 64-bit Delphi product)

[Wayback/Archive] GitHub – KirillOsenkov/LargeAddressAware: A build tools package that adds support for making 32-bit exes LARGEADDRESSAWARE
Hopefully this can be applied to Delphi projects as well. If not then in Delphi you can manually call this in an post-build task.
Addition late 20240626
[Wayback/Archive] Kirill Osenkov: “@wiert I also found that you can…” – Mastodon
@wiert I also found that you can target AnyCPU 32-bit preferred and it will give you the same address space. So that tool is only for x86.
Via [Wayback/Archive] Meik Tranel on X: “Please for the love of all that is holy. Do not build #dotnet tools to serve a non interactive task that is supposed to be run during a build – use an #MSBuild task package. Also #JS/#NPM devs should not be allowed to write tooling. Thanks for coming to my ted talk…”.
The Delphi bit inspired a few months ago by: [Wayback/Archive] Andreas on X: “Will there ever be a 64bit Delphi IDE or at least a LargeAddressAware version. Our Projekt crashes the IDE between 14-18 compilations because it runs out of memory. Maybe I have to patch the IDE myself by moving all .NET and Compiler memory allocations above the 2 GB address.”

Delphi has had a more type safe FreeAndNil or a while now, but in order to do so it lies to you
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/06/26
During my year+ of cancer treatments, Embarcadero did a tiny thing that makes [Wayback/Archive]FreeAndNil safer to use. In order to do so, the method now lies to you by taking a const [ref] parameter which technically it is not allowed to change, but the internal hackery allows it to. Dalija Prasnikar explained it in 2020: [Wayback/Archive] Magic behind FreeAndNil.
The new signature is this:
procedure FreeAndNil(const [ref] Obj: TObject); inline;

Lots of interesting programming learning games links via b0rk on Twitter
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/06/25
Every once in a while, b0rk (Julia Evans, of [Wayback/Archive] wizard zines fame) asks interesting questions like below that results in lot of cool links.
I have blogged assemblies of them before (see for instance Lots of interesting git links via b0rk on Twitter) and this one is no different:
[Wayback/Archive] Julia Evans on Twitter: “what are some helpful programming learning games? thinking of things like mystery.knightlab.com for SQL, and flexboxfroggy.com, and ohmygit.org especially interested in games that have helped you learn something”
- [Wayback/Archive] The SQL Murder Mystery
- [Wayback/Archive] Flexbox Froggy – A game for learning CSS flexbox
- [Wayback/Archive] Oh My Git!
The response was overwhelmingly good (I tried to indicate when games are not free or not playable from a web browser). I summarised it below.

How to apply border inside a table ? – GeeksforGeeks
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/06/20
It is deprecated but still works and an easy way to quickly set the inner borders of an HTML table: use the rules attribute.
- [Wayback/Archive] How to apply border inside a table ? – GeeksforGeeks
Only Using HTML: In this case, we will use rules attribute of table. Rules is the attribute in HTML table which allows user to display only inside borders of the table which can be chosen among only rows, cols or all.

It is more than a decade old but still the best reference around [Wayback/Archive] -= pnx.tf =- has [Wayback] x86_opcode_structure_and_instruction_overview.pdf
I found it via [Wayback/Archive] Alice Climent-Pommeret on Twitter: “I’ve just discovered this amazing document showing super clearly the relation between the opcode and the instruction 🤯 …”
