Traps to Developers 11 months ago

I think you are quoting from https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.threadin...

"In C#, using the volatile modifier on a field guarantees that every access to that field is a volatile memory operation"

This makes it sound like you are right and the volatile keyword has the same behaviour as the Volatile class which explicitly says it has acquire-release ordering.

But that seems to contradict "The volatile keyword doesn't provide atomicity for operations other than assignment, doesn't prevent race conditions, and doesn't provide ordering guarantees for other memory operations." from the volatile keyword documentation?

One interesting usecase is that you can run a tauri app without any webview windows just as a system tray icon and only spawn a webview window when necessary.

This kind of makes it way more lightweight but only in some situations (obv. heavily depending on the functionality of the app).

It possible to disable this plugin. I have it disabled.[1]

The linked YouTrack thread[2] in the article says so as well. It is just not possible to remove the plugin entirely from your device.

Regarding the plugin being enabled by default the official response by Jetbrains says [3]

  The AI Assistant plugin is enabled by default and menu items and tool windows are visible in the UI. However, AI Assistant functionality is NOT available by default, and NO requests are sent to the JetBrains AI Service unless ALL of the following conditions are met:
  
  - The user has explicitly consented to use the AI Assistant and is using the trial or has purchased the corresponding subscription.
  - The AI Assistant has not been disabled for a particular project.
  - In the case of a commercial IDE license, the AI Assistant has to have been enabled at the organizational level. We’d like to reiterate that for commercial IDE licenses, unless this is explicitly enabled by your organization’s administrators, AI Assistant will not be available.
I'm not saying this is perfect and this can obviously still be a problem on e.g work devices.
