When Microsoft download URLs time out: check if it other IP addresses for the same host do work fine (it might be a regional Microsoft CDN issue)
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/03/28
A while back, early in the Wednesday morning after Patch Tuesday I performed regular updates of all the systems noticing some updates failed because timeouts on the Microsoft download servers.
Note I perform the manual steps on Wednesday as Patch Tuesday as it starts at 10:00 AM PST which is in the evening in Amsterdam. The automated steps are automated and kick in when Microsoft tells the Windows machines to update themselves.
See [Wayback/Archive] Security Update Guide FAQs
Microsoft schedules the release of security updates on “Patch Tuesday,” the second Tuesday of each month at 10:00 AM PST.
Depending on time zone(s) in which the organization operates, IT pros should plan their deployment schedules accordingly. Please note that there are some products that do not follow the Patch Tuesday schedule.
I posted a gist and a Tweet, but didn’t immediately thought of a good resolution so I postponed that until Thursday and found it:

Skip line while debugging in Chrome developer tools – Stack Overflow
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/03/27
[Wayback/Archive] Skip line while debugging in Chrome developer tools – Stack Overflow (thanks [Wayback/Archive] Matas Vaitkevicius for both asking and answering):
Last comment from dev says:We’re going to hold off on this feature for now. It’s complexity is high and it’s not common enough a workflow. One could also just comment out the lines and hit ctrl-s to get the same effect, pretty much. Status: WontFix –The workaround is to comment out the line you want to skip and press Ctrl+S.
The problem is that the workaround fails when you have used the Chrome Dev Tools to format the source code: then you cannot edit the formatted code.
The workaround for that is cumbersome, but doable as in this bug report:

For vscode: git-rename – Visual Studio Marketplace
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/03/26
In vscode, I have installed [Wayback/Archive] git-rename – Visual Studio Marketplace (with source code at [Wayback/Archive] adam8810/vscode-git-rename: Move or rename a file, a directory, or a symlink using git-mv).
Many people assume that git does recognise rename (or mv) operations by itself. Often it does, but it fails, and when it fails it usually is in a complex situation where it is easy to overlook it did not recognise the rename.
Failing complex situations I have encountered in the past (combined they get worse):
- rename across several directories
- first edit, then rename
- first rename, then edit
So it is better to proactively perform an IDE-assisted git mv operation that informs git of the rename.
Many IDE environments support a built-in rename that keeps git mv in the loop, but Visual Studio Code does not, hence the need for this extension.
It means I agree with the question, disagree with the answer, and agree with the comment in [Wayback/Archive] VS Code ‘git mv’ to preserve file history? – Stack Overflow:
