True. I’ve just seen requests to that file in my demo env for web apps I have and I’ve seen my browser request that file by itself when running those locally.

Why would you ever want to route your request like this through a third party especially an ad company? To get the favicon of a site you just request www.example.com/favicon.ico.

natives apps in principle could be faster and use more of your hardware —in practice though, they tend to be horribly bloated electron crapps.

Electron “apps” are just glorified web pages anyhow. Native applications do offer superior performance as they are AOT compiled code. The ones that are written in rust, c, c++ etc, and if they are gui applications use frameworks like QT or GTK+. They are called native since they are compiled to machine code and are directly executable in the cpu without any kind of runtime like electron browser, java or python.

A solution is not to use any product, service or software made by MS or google.

Stop using github. Move to something else e.g. codeberg.

Ran into that as well. Just use “repair vesktop” option from the right click menu on the icon when it’s running. That fixes it. You’ll stay logged in etc.

This is or was part of their anti-spam/flooding protection.

That’s the official explanation. A phone number is a nice way to attach a real world identity to the data (which of course is sold to advertisers/data brokers etc).

Not the same thing. With session saving I don’t have configure anything.

KDE + wayland on Tumbleweed gave me this experience.

Wayland has at least one deal breaker for me. It doesn’t remember where my windows were at logout when saving the session. I have six virtual desktops and have specific windows in certain desktops. Putting everything back where they belong after each login, no thank you. Until they add that I’ll stick to X11.

I’ll add shift + f6 for refactor rename and ctrl + 6 for redefining your function i.e. add/remove parameters and/or return value.

I use Jetbrains’ products for all my coding needs.

You do have a Void type in Java if you really must specify a return type and don’t want to return anything e.g. services and their tasks in JavaFx. The Task must have a return type thus you can use Void if the task doesn’t actually return anything.

If developers want to make a desktop application they should use proper cross platform desktop frameworks like QT or GTK or even JavaFX instead of a webpage disguised as an application.

Wikpedia puts it nicely:

"The concept of concurrent computing is frequently confused with the related but distinct concept of parallel computing,[3][4] although both can be described as “multiple processes executing during the same period of time”. In parallel computing, execution occurs at the same physical instant: for example, on separate processors of a multi-processor machine, with the goal of speeding up computations—parallel computing is impossible on a (one-core) single processor, as only one computation can occur at any instant (during any single clock cycle).[a] By contrast, concurrent computing consists of process lifetimes overlapping, but execution does not happen at the same instant. "

A cpu (core) can only do one thing at a time. When you have multiple cores you can do multiple things at the same time. Multitasking in programming sense is a bad term, it’s a term more for the masses.

Bit simplified:

• concurrency: you seem to be doing multiple things at the same time. In reality they are run little by little one after another.
• parallelism: you actually run multiple things at the same time (multiple cpus/cpu cores required).
