Since the title gives nothing away:
This is an extensive article by Ed Zitron on how the technology that you’re required to interact with every day has become explicitly user hostile. It’s a 42 minute read, but IMO worth reading at least the first section.
Ed Zitron also has an excellent podcast on the topic of tech companies being awful called “Better Offline”
The “solution” is buy their product.

This article is an ad.
That kind of sucks, but it should only be for a dev release

I worked on software at one point that had at it’s core a number of “modes” that it switched between. It was, at the time, in the process of migrating from enums and switch/case trees to an inheritance based system.
In practice this meant there was a single instance of “Mode” for each mode which used pointer equality to switch/case on modes like an enum.
To add a new mode (that did nothing) I think I had to change about 6 different places.
Disappointed there doesn’t appear to be a project page
What do the exclamation points mean?
What thing called turtle are you referring to?
These guys are Canadian and I’ve always thought their tech seemed really creative and novel
Safetynet and other attestation features are deliberately anticompetitive and anti-consumer and need to be executed with prejudice and a hefty fine.
Scrum that’s not adapted to your needs isn’t scrum.
After reading that whole article I feel no more enlightened.
They mentioned secure boot, is secure boot part of the exploit or does the exploit invalidate secure boot?
That’s leftpad. The package name dispute was over something else, but they pulled all their packages from npm in protest. Turned out leftpad was a transient dependency for a huge swathe of all JavaScript.
Can you just drop to assembly for what you want to do? Gnu compilers even have inline assembly, but with any compiler you should at least be able to built a separate, assembly, object file.
Simulink has a concept called Test Harnesses which are models that isolate individual blocks for testing. The tests themselves are then driven programmatically from MATLAB
Have you got concurrency and parallelism swapped around?
If it doesn’t fulfill the requirements it’s not any kind of solution
A cheap nonstick pan will keel over even if you exclusively touch it with soft cotton gloves.
