[WayBack] macos – El Capitan /private/var/folders cache files consuming 30–40 GB – Ask Different

Enabling stack traces in Delphi: [WayBack] Getting started · MahdiSafsafi/DebugEngine Wiki · GitHub:
Using DebugEngine stack trace when error occurs:
All what you need to do is to include
DebugEngine.HookExceptionunit into your project. And each time an error occurs, you will be able to get the stack trace from the point where the error occurred.uses DebugEngine.HookException; {...} procedure Foo; begin try DoSomething; except on E: Exception do ShowMessage(E.StackTrace); end; end;
You can get similar functionality with JCL.

Having mainly used ssh as a means to connect to a shell on remote machines and occasionally a manual port forward.
I never noticed autossh where you can automate the ssh logon process to keep permanent port forwards up and running. Cool!
It’s on my research list now, as this will be useful probably sooner than later:
My initial impression is that autossh is a wrapper around the regular ssh client that allows reconnection upon communication failures.

Especially the comments in it are well worth re-reading.
By now a new Delphi version should have been out, so I am curious how the balance between bug fixes and new features was.
Edit: Fixed bugs are features, so in my opinion Embarcadero should release only bug-fix updates and upgrades for at least two years.

Problem with new features is that they usually come with new bugs. Therefore new features take away developer capacity from fixing old bugs twice.
