The entire main loop that queues jobs is then a single ForEachAsync that draws from the channel. And it just works, there are no real mistakes you can make with it. Semaphores work well of course, as long as you don't make mistakes. Pr

Out of curiosity, why do you use an explicit semaphore here? I usually used Parallel.ForEachAsync together with ReadAllAsync from the Channel. Avoiding the manual semaphore handling was one of the things I really liked about Channels.

Channels are a built-in feature from Microsoft, and they do all the hard work here.

This seems to be a thin abstraction over Channels, I'd probably prefer to use Channels directly in almost all cases. I really like Channels for in-memory queues like this, they're very nice and it's easy to make everything pa

Part of the problem is that every identity provider is different. So you'd have to provide docs for every single one of them and their particularities. And customers don't necessarily read the docs, or even if they do they don&#x2

No, it's far, far smaller and very specialized software.

Not to defend this practice, but SSO does tend to produce an additional support burden. It's complex, there are many knobs to fiddle with and it can be tedious to figure out if the customer (via configuration, or their identity provide

There is no consistent ideology. There is only grift, and rage against anyone that they think wronged them. Okay, there is ideology. But it's a bunch of different people with very different ideologies and goals.

It's anything but a small language, but I wouldn't consider the stuff they're adding crap. They're useful features, but yes, this does have a price and makes the language larger. There is value in a language with minimal

No idea what the reasons are in this specific case, but these kinds of military procurements are inherently tied to the political side. Planes like this quickly become paperweights if you can't get replacements parts, support and ammun

I can't judge the legal aspects. But a significant point here is that Adblock Plus allows you do pay them to get preferential treatment for your ads. I don't know how much this part affects the legal issues here, but for me that i

It's even more restrictive than than, for age verification you only get back whether the person is above the age limit or not, it's a boolean response. So I think from that view the eID works pretty well, it provides the minimal n

The hyper-polarization is already in the real world, so I don't think social media can avoid that.

It's not actually banned in Germany. Though I think the only edition you can buy here is annotated, which does seem like a good idea.

So am I understanding it right that you don't need any CSRF tokens anymore to fully protect against CSRF attacks? And if Go is implementing this specific protection, are other ecosystems doing this as well? My specific interest would b

The punctuality of the trains has been more of a joke for quite a bit, I don't think it's a big part of German identity. The part that is really terrible are the long-distance trains. Not that the regional trains are always punctu

Probably Serverless functions, which is a use case where standard ASP.NET Core is not particularly good. I'd blame Serverless more than ASP.NET Core for the bad performance in that case though.

This is more concerning than the usual paper mills as the crap papers are published in otherwise legitimate journals. The pure paper mills are less destructive as people are much less likely to read and use those papers. But if you have eve

Antisemitism is a pretext here, the Trump administration is targeting organizations that it considers too liberal.

Antisemitism is just an excuse for these actions against universities, it's a pretext. Not a particularly believable one anyway, but that doesn't seem to matter. The Trump administration is punishing institutions that disagree wit

For me the biggest hurdle with Linux recently was the bad support for fractional scaling and multi-monitor setups with different scaling factors. It looks like this got better now, though on the Notebook I'm using Linux with I'm f

For Horizon Zero Dawn I'd argue that the colors are clearly an artistic choice. They're not going for realistic colors at all. And the original game and its sequel do look very, very good. There do seem to be plenty of issues arou

I admit, I was confused a bit as well about the io_ring security reputation. Though I didn't really follow the topic, so the clarification that this was mostly about an older design on Android is quite helpful. The potential performanc

I'm not saying this is against the law, but it is clear that Apple only moves exactly as far as the EU forces it to, not a bit more. And within the limits the law allows, they're doing everything they can to make it tedious and di

The simple fact that they restrict this to the EU, where they are forced to provide the option, shows that Apple is not serious about this. They're barely fulfilling the letter of the law here. If this would be only about security as A

How can a company make delivery 10x better? The expected result of a monopoly are rising prices and at best indifferent service and quality.

Looks like the biggest part is a 37MB vendor bundle, so I assume those are all the libraries they use. It's 6.5MB transferred, but compression only helps with the network part, something still parses and interprets that JS.

Lumping all artificial dyes together is a sign the regulations RFK Jr. is proposing or implementing are unscientific. These are different chemicals, and actual scientific or medical arguments would treat them as such. There's plenty of
