- The fact that most tools have completely different ways to allow them to add certificates is the biggest pain. Git, Python and Rust also have large issues. Git doesn't default to "http.schannel". Python (or rather requests, or maybe urllib3) only looks at its own certificate store, and I have no idea how Rust does this (well, I use uv, and it has its own problems - I know about the --use-native-tls flag, but it should be a default at the least).
- I'm in Europe and I see the same page. I don't think it's geoblocked.
- A simple (and stupid) /time.aspx in VB.NET, because that's what was easily available:
(you need to change "/time" to "/time.aspx" for the original HTML page to work)<% Dim epochMilliseconds As Long = CLng((DateTime.UtcNow - New DateTime(1970, 1, 1)).TotalMilliseconds) Response.Write("{ ""epoch_ms"": " & epochMilliseconds & " }") %> - In the test, Windows Terminal (weirdly written as "terminal.exe") comes up as #4 in the scoring table.
As to the "love" question, I still watch this video from time to time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gw0rXPMMPE :)
EDIT: I love the easter egg with the names of the developers across the Windows timeline :)
- I feel that there might be a bigger difference by using Console Host vs Windows Terminal. Windows Terminal IIRC is GPU accelerated.
EDIT: The screenshot sure looks like Console Host.
- I reverse engineered what I could, and it's supposed to be all in row 30, column 4 to 11 (8 squares). You may add 2 more squares on the left or right side (it's just checking it's no more than 10 squares).
It's the third row where other buildings show up.
- I set up Mattermost as a quick-and-dirty alternative, Zulip seemed a bit too hard to setup under pressure. I'm willing to give it a try again though.
- I've migrated one of my projects from Slack to Mattermost (integration) in a couple of days.
I have no idea about Zulip, it was harder to setup under pressure than Mattermost was.
- FAR Manager. They went civilian :)
- Greek here:
Orthodox = orthos + doxasia
Orthos = straight/correct
Doxasia = belief
orthodoxos = correct belief

The King. Sorry to spoil The Crown for you, but Queen Elisabeth II has been dead for a few years.
- It seems you might be too optimistic here. I doubt Trumpism will end with Trump.
- I'm a little wary with "100% effective". Not even 99.9% effective?
- I mean, Jakob Nielsen has been advocating for them since last century: https://www.nngroup.com/articles/the-case-for-micropayments/
- I have high 2 digits of extensions in my VS Code, and yours is the only one that wouldn't have a verified publisher. And I certainly have more than one from solo developers.
Qt organization (because you mentioned it) also has verification. It displays a different message (because I haven't installed anything from them):
> The extension Qt Core is published by Qt Group. This is the first extension you're installing from this publisher.
> Qt Group has verified ownership of qt.io.
> Visual Studio Code has no control over the behavior of third-party extensions, including how they manage your personal data. Proceed only if you trust the publisher.
EDIT: I'm sure there are other extensions that are also by unverified publishers. It was the first time I was hit with that message though.
- There's a syntax error in line 10 (t0 instead of to).
Also, what's the source for this program? I tried it on VICE and failed miserably. Maybe something (else) was copied wrong? Or is it supposed to fail on emulators?
- This looks cool, but I'm a bit wary of publishers that aren't verified.
> Do you trust the publisher "Ali Mostafavi"?
> The extension voil is published by Ali Mostafavi. This is the first extension > you're installing from this publisher.
> Ali Mostafavi is not verified.
> Visual Studio Code has no control over the behavior of third-party extensions, including how they manage your personal data. Proceed only if you trust the publisher.

Lol. That's _so_ in character
- I wonder how this is going to affect the Disney+Universal vs OpenAI trial.
It's a reference to a Simpsons episode where Homer Simpson designs a car, and it's supremely hideous: https://simpsonswiki.com/wiki/The_Homer
