Yep. I get anxious when Safari starts to offer a new password for an existing account. Having access to previous passwords would be such great UX, but no, no such thing.

Yeah big surprise that the populist government didn’t achieve anything and rolled back green initiatives. Good thing that they fell, sad that it took so long.

This! And to make matters worse is the header is removed from the document flow, causing the content to jump up when scrolling down. And if you then scroll up to try to read the content that jumped out of the viewport, the stupid header is injected back into the flow causing the content to jump down again. Sigh.

I've read through the agent investigation of Codex on macOS. It looks like the default sandbox is pretty limited, however it doesn't match my experience:

- I asked the agent to change my global git username, Codex asked my permission to execute `git config --global user.name "Botje"` and after I granted permission, it was able to change this global configuration.

- I asked it to list my home directory and it was able to (this time without Codex asking for permission).

I'm curious about what updates will get pushed through that channel. Is it just RTM updates, or will it also include beta updates? It's currently offering 15.7.5 through that channel.

.NET 10 8 months ago

See the docs[1] where it mentions that 10 is supported, but not available in the built-in Ubuntu feed. It however is/should become available in the backports feed.

To make matters even more interesting the GitHub / Azure DevOps CI agent image Ubuntu 24.04 doesn't provide .NET 9, whereas 22.04 does[2]. .NET 10 appears to become available in both though[3].

Why is it that only App Store apps are sandboxed? I would like to sandbox most of the apps I’m running. No app needs a blanket slate to access my files. Sure there’s some of the permissions, but they aren’t granular enough.

For comparison, skipping dotnet run and running the compiled program directly:

  time "/Users/bouke/Library/Application Support/dotnet/runfile/hello-world-fc604c4e7d71b490ccde5271268569273873cc7ab51f5ef7dee6fb34372e89a2/bin/debug/hello-world" > /dev/null

  real 0m0.051s
  user 0m0.029s
  sys 0m0.017s
So yeah the overhead of dotnet run is pretty high in this preview version.

Not GP, but can confirm on my M3 Max using the hello world sample:

  $ time dotnet run hello-world.cs > /dev/null
  
  real 0m1.161s
  user 0m0.849s
  sys 0m0.122s

  $ time dotnet run hello-world.cs > /dev/null

  real 0m0.465s  
  user 0m0.401s  
  sys 0m0.065s
