Love when vendors of a code-quality tool have zero clue about what code quality issues people actually care about.
I really don’t need a commercial tool that “enforces style standards”. I can use Semgrep free (or Silver Searcher or whatever) to alert folks who use a banned function. There are a million free tools that will shout if I try to commit an API key.
Your feature list is sad and you should be ashamed
My tablecloth is finally done! Started this last February. It's an adaptation of a pattern by Elizabeth Hiddleson from the mid-1900s. 22 balls of Tulipan 15 thread (7,700 metres), and a 1.5 Japan steel hook.
This was challenging to say the least. Ms. Hiddleson was no pattern writer and used a confusing combination of pictures for you to follow if you couldn't understand her written instructions.
I am no longer nervous about the pineapple pattern! Once you've done a couple, the next hundreds are easy 🤣
I had 16 balls of the thread in my stash and figured it would be enough. Nope. I tracked it down in Croatia, but had to order from a yarn shop in Slovakia to get shipping to Canada. I ordered 16 and now have 10 balls in my stash. And yes, the cost of shipping was darn near the cost of the thread! And yes, customs tore the packaging apart! I worried about opening it for an hour, but all good!
To say I'm pleased with this is a major understatement.

New interstellar object entered our solar system. Defies current categorizations, (unlikely to be an asteroid or comet). Has a trajectory that could be thought of as an optimal exploration path, passing between Mars and Earth orbits, with a good look around. A little hypothetical 'oomff' could set it into stable orbit in the system so it could stay indefinitely around.
A lot of coincidences. Then again, more data is needed (always). Will it be?

New, by me: Google refused to say if it received a secret UK court order, like Apple did, demanding the company build a backdoor for accessing encrypted user data.
Meta said it hasn't received one. Apple said it's barred from disclosing if it had one (it has!).
Google tried to dodge the question, and refused to explicitly state if it had not received a UK backdoor demand.
