I find this operator intuitive and idiomatic. It's widely understood and used as a binary OR operator in many languages, and it's easy to understand its functionality when both operands are dictionaries.

WSL2 actually uses a virtualized Linux kernel, as opposed to WSL1, which implemented Linux APIs on top of Windows, a la Wine. Here's the source (literally). https://github.com/microsoft/WSL2-Linux-Kernel

It's fairly trivial to build an entire OS into an initramfs to run from memory. Also, the poor performance of most microSD cards is primarily due to their flash quality, and designed use case in phones and cameras for external storage.

I haven't used iterm2, but after another comment on HN suggesting Tilix as a replacement on Linux, I switched full-time to it a few weeks ago.

Reading this now on a ROG Zephyrus G14 ($1,449)[1] running Arch. I've had a few random lockups with Linux 5.6.4, though they seem to have become less frequent with amd-ucode and a bios update. Additionally, I haven't had any probl

Can you clarify your question? I'm using Cython to write extension modules that directly interface with CEF's C API. CEF is about 40k lines of C++ that programmatically controls Chromium, which itself is written in C and C++.

I'm currently working on a project using Cython to wrap and expose a large and complex C API (CEF) to Python. One of the most time-consuming, tedious, and error prone tasks is translating functions and structures to Cython syntax, incl
