The mass media is beating the war drums again as Israel and the US try to manufacture consent for war. Never forget that Iran is the number one impediment to Israeli domination in the region. With propaganda efforts in full swing, here are three things that Israel and the US don't want you to know...

PRODUCTHEAD: The rift between design and product

» Product managers exist in part to free up the specialists to do their thing

» Being the point of contact with senior executives and stakeholders tends to also make you accountable to them

» Specialists’ expertise is needed to wield a tool effectively, even if it’s easy to use

Heb je wat meer #context voor me?
Ik merk dat ik je vraag niet goed snap.

https://dev.to/ridhikgovind/learn-react-context-by-building-a-dead-simple-wallet-app-for-beginners-20a5 - #React #context is awesome, and eliminates prop drilling. Nice post with examples https://github.com/RidhikGovind.

today’s #ConTeXt update is a bit of beta, because of:

• reworked control over callbacks
• preparations for an upgrade of grid snapping
• overload protection enabled
• a few fixes
• additional warnings
• some potential speedups

#TeXConTeXt

one of my bffs sent me this video and i talk about how much i love #fabricAI a lot i haven't even really gotten into the most interesting capabilities of it. it's just brilliant as a way to grab and enrich text, get summaries, and the suggest patterns option is always great.

but watch the first 7 minutes of this and you will see some things that make you want to clear your calendar:

#ConTeXt in #TeXlive was only updated on release so far and didn’t even receive bugfixes.

Max Chernoff has now taken over ConTeXt maintenance for TeX live, so that it will lag only a few days behind the standalone #LMTX distribution from now.

For a few “exotic” platforms there are no current #LuaMetaTeX binaries – but they’re easy to compile yourself, and you’re better off with the lean LMTX distribution anyway.

PRODUCTHEAD: Bridging cultural divides

» Different cultures communicate with varying directness; context heavily influences interpretation and meaning

» Leadership, trust, and decision-making styles differ widely across cultural backgrounds and must be adapted to the team

» Bridging cultural divides requires empathy, flexibility, and awareness of one’s own cultural lens

@jutty i like out-of-band hashtags, like tumblr does, but an excess of inline ones just looks awful to me.

Also, why does anyone use #generic hashtags with no particular #context? It’s like they’ve heard of SEO, but aren’t really sure how it works or whether it applies here, but are prepared to give it their best anyway.

Solved! 🥳

This was a pretty "interesting" bug. Remember when I invented a way to implement #async / #await in #C, for jobs running on a threadpool. Back then I said it only works when completion of the task resumes execution on the *same* pool thread.

Trying to improve overall performance, I found the complex logic to identify the thread job to put on a pool thread a real deal-breaker. Just having one single MPMC queue with a single semaphore for all pool threads to wait on is a lot more efficient. But then, a job continued after an awaited task will resume on a "random" thread.

It theoretically works by making sure to restore the CORRECT context (the original one of the pool thread) every time after executing a job, whether partially (up to the next await) or completely.

Only it didn't, at least here on #FreeBSD, and I finally understood the reason for this was that I was using #TLS (thread-local storage) to find the context to restore.

Well, most architectures store a pointer to the current thread metadata in a register. #POSIX user #context #switching saves and restores registers. I found a source claiming that the #Linux (#glibc) implementation explicitly does NOT include the register holding a thread pointer. Obviously, #FreeBSD's implementation DOES include it. POSIX doesn't have to say anything about that.

In short, avoiding TLS accesses when running with a custom context solved the crash. 🤯

PRODUCTHEAD: Structuring teams for the work — team topologies and taxonomies

» Structure teams differently based on the nature of the work

» There is value in using shared language to describe how teams differ

I'm trying to correct a longtime gap by finally reading Twain's Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn books, and have to admit—I hate them. Yeah, there's real craft here, and some great storytelling, but OMG it's nonstop n****r n****r n****r and I'm sure Twain was trying to be on the right side of things but it's just relentless. Reminds me how we queer folk are supposed to revere The Boys In The Band, which has a similar problem, but with sad gayness.
