  • My girlfriend was looking to get a new IUD after her last one was expiring. For some reason the normal approach is completely without anaesthesia. There are so many horror stories of women being in awful pain during and up to weeks after the procedure. She looked around for a gynecologist with a focus on contraception (most focus on conception which is kind of annoying if you’re not at that stage in life yet) and we were able to find one. He said there’s no reason to not be using local anaesthesia. The procedure was very simple. Unbelievable how many women are going through pain that would be entirely preventable.

    What’s interesting is that this problem is largely solved for C and C++: Linux distributions like Debian package such a wide range of libraries that for many things that you want to develop or install, you don’t need any third-party libraries at all.

    This person has made some very different experiences to myself. How does C++ handle versioning? How do you compare versions across distros or even OSs? How do you control which features are included? How do you make sure your chosen build tools finds these files?

    Projects like conan try to do what crates.io does for Rust and it’s not the greatest experience. The other direction is something like Buck2 that puts the whole dependency in your project so you can have hermetic builds.

    I have no idea how any of this can be seen as an advantage in a development workflow.




  • I’m actually having similar issues. Seemingly at random, my PC will freeze up due to lack of memory and killing Firefox fixes it. Im also sure it must be an extension causing it.

    Here are my extensions, let me know which of these you are using and maybe we can narrow it down from that:

    • Neat URL
    • uBlock Origin
    • Return YouTube Dislikes
    • Firefox Multi-Account Containers
    • SponsorBlock
    • Vimium
    • Decentraleyes
    • Enhancer for YouTube
    • Privacy Possum
    • I don’t care about cookies
    • First Party Isolation
