# If you have issue with 
# objc[18501]: +[__NSCFConstantString initialize] may have been in progress in another thread when fork() was called.
# objc[18501]: +[__NSCFConstantString initialize] may have been in progress in another thread when fork() was called. We cannot safely call it or ignore it in the fork() child process. Crashing instead. Set a breakpoint on objc_initializeAfterForkError to debug.

# I had this problem when running `bin/rails c` on Mac M1 Pro. The solution for this is below

$ export OBJC_DISABLE_INITIALIZE_FORK_SAFETY=YES
$ export DISABLE_SPRING=true

This should help.

How to install Homebrew package manager on Steam Deck

(See also installing Distroboxm, which is included in SteamOS 3.5 and newer: https://distrobox.it/ )
(See also installing Nix package manager: https://determinate.systems/posts/nix-on-the-steam-deck )

You can install Homebrew (a package manager for macOS and Linux) without disabling the read-only partition with sudo steamos-readonly disable.
The package manager can be used alongside Flatpaks. Some software is only available on Flathub, and some software is only available on Homebrew.

1. Switch to desktop mode (hold power button until a menu appears, then select "Switch to desktop mode")
2. Click the logo at the bottom left, go to System, then go to Konsole

Automating things in software development is more than useful and using Ansible is one way to automate software provisioning, configuration management, and application deployment. Normally you would install Ansible to your control node just like any other application but an alternate strategy is to deploy Ansible inside a standalone Docker image. But why would you do that? This approach has benefits to i.a. operational processes.

Although Ansible does not require installation of any agents within managed nodes, the environment where Ansible is installed is not so simple to setup. In control node it requires specific Python libraries and their system dependencies. So instead of using package manager to install Ansible and it’s dependencies we just pull a Docker image.

By creating an Ansible Docker image you get the Ansible version you want and isolate all of the required dependencies from the host machine which potentially might break things in other area

Falsehoods programmers believe about time

This is a compiled list of falsehoods programmers tend to believe about working with time.

Don't re-invent a date time library yourself. If you think you understand everything about time, you're probably doing it wrong.

Falsehoods

• There are always 24 hours in a day.
• February is always 28 days long.
• Any 24-hour period will always begin and end in the same day (or week, or month).
