For my link archive: [Wayback/Archive] Bruce Tate on Twitter: “What’s the most unique feature of your favorite programming language?” / Twitter
From the languages that I have been using most:
It was a kind of follow-up on his earlier tweet that also sparked nice responses at [Archive] Bruce Tate on Twitter: “What is a #programming technique or construct that other people like but you think is overused?” / Twitter.
In my respons I phrased my decades long pet peeve [Archive] Jeroen Wiert Pluimers on Twitter: “@redrapids OOP: inheritance over composition. This leads to deep hierarchies that eventually nobody understands.” / Twitter.
Whereas with OOP (object-oriented programming) one should use composition over inheritance, often the reverse is true.
Actually my take can be generalised into two directions as these hierarchies:
- often crowd a single namespace, so: crowding namespaces is bad.
One does see this outside the Object Oriented realm a well.
- often have many levels of indirection, so: overdoing indirection is bad
One does see this outside the Object Oriented realm a well, just not as pronounced.

Forgot to schedule this in 2014, so here it finally is, as the content is still relevant:
A long time ago (almost 10 years) I did some stuff with State Machines in .NET.
Since then the world has changed, and a lot more libraries have become available.
As I mainly use .NET and Delphi and there is a reasonable chance I need to do some more state machine work, here are some links about State Machines in both environments.

After publishing Free Linux cloud shell for Gmail users – shell in the browser that works in all locations I’ve been so far, the Google Cloud Shell got extended quite a bit.
There is now [Wayback/Archive] Safe Mode (which skips initialisation scripts):
If there’s a problem in your .bashrc or .tmux.conf files, Cloud Shell immediately close after connection. To resolve this, open Cloud Shell in safe mode by appending cloudshellsafemode=true to the URL. This restarts your Cloud Shell instance and logs you in as root, allowing you to fix any issues in the files.
To permanently delete all files in your home directory and restore your Cloud Shell home directory to a clean state, you can reset your Cloud Shell VM.
And there is support for way more [Wayback/Archive] tools and languages:

A while ago I wrote about Setting up a GitHub project so it is served over https as a github.io and a custom subdomain.
Doing the full “host on your custom domain” route was a big tougher than I hoped for, so I totally forgot how easy it is to convert an existing HTML or markdown documentation repository to use GitHub pages without a custom domain.
I needed it for the Delphi version of the DeadLockEmpire (see links below, originally it was an interactive tutorial game focusing on the C# language and .NET runtime), as I am trying to get as much as my stuff published and hosted in a manner that will outlive me (I still have a pretty high chance of the rectum cancer metastases returning).
Enabling GitHub Pages on your repository is almost as easy as hosting a page through raw.githack.com (where I already hosted raw.githack.com/jpluimers/deadlockempire.github.io/feature/Delphi-language-and-Delphi-RTL/index.html as raw.githack.com/jpluimers/deadlockempire.github.io/feature/Delphi-language-and-Delphi-RTL/index.html and rawcdn.githack.com/jpluimers/deadlockempire.github.io/feature/Delphi-language-and-Delphi-RTL/index.html).
This is how easy it was to get it hosted as [Wayback/Archive] jpluimers.github.io/deadlockempire.github.io:
- In my [Wayback/Archive] jpluimers/deadlockempire.github.io: The Deadlock Empire: Slay dragons, learn concurrency! repository, go to the Settings tab, then click on Pages:
DeadLockEmpire Settings tab, Pages configuration None.
Here you see “None” as value for the branch to be published as GitHub Pages.
- Here I have chosen the Branch “feature/Delphi-language-and-Delphi-RTL” to be published, and am about to press “Save” (full screenshot below):
DeadLockEmpire Pages selecting the correct branch
- After pressing “Save“, the site gets published (it takes about a minute for that to complete) at [Wayback/Archive] jpluimers.github.io/deadlockempire.github.io:
DeadLockEmpire Pages the correct branch has been saved which will automagically publish it.
That was it. No more steps.
Each new commit in the selected branch will auto-publish as well.

Some notes for my link archive.
A long time ago, I asked [Wayback/Archive] c# – Console application using Clipboard.GetFileDropList: how to check if that came from a cut or copy operation? – Stack Overflow.
Back then, the use case had disappeared, so I didn’t follow up. But a new use case might appear soon, so here it goes:

Last week finally there was the stable [Wayback/Archive] Release version 1.0.0 · chocolatey/choco · GitHub.
So I fixed the Wikipedia page
It was a few days after the 11th birthday “Celebration”: [Wayback/Archive] Chocolatey Software Blog | This One Goes To 11! Celebrating 11 Years Of Chocolatey. Not a really festive post, though it does have a really nice overview of 11 years of Chocolatey history and clearly showing the momentum of it has been a few years behind us.
The thing is: hardly anybody noticed the celebration nor the 1.0.0 release. Being at various 0.* versions for like a decade makes people not follow sudden version bumps closely. I only noticed when updating a bunch of testing VMs of which one had a problem, so I inspected the logs and saw the 1.0.0 version.
So these recent tweets did not gain much attention:
Anyway: the release notes indicate a few things scheduled for 2.0.0. Given the sudden 0.12.0 -> 1.0.0 bump, I have no clue far (or near!) in the future that will be.
It is kind of both a saddening and relieved feeling: like for instance Stack Overflow/Stack Exchange (both in the same age cohort as Chocolatey), Chocolatey is just there and mostly works.

TL;DR:
- Windows has
CON: which is an equivalent for /dev/tty
- Windows has no equivalent for
/dev/stdout (the standard output stream)
- There is a C#
PipeServer.cs proof-of-concept that allows to simulate /dev/stdout through a temporary named pipe
- Windows pipe names start with
\\.\pipe\ for names on the local machine
- The above for
/dev/stdout on Windows also holds for /dev/stdin (the standard input stream)
All via [Wayback] pipe – Windows how to redirect file parameter to stdout? (Windows equivalent of /dev/stdout) – Super User.
