Curious, what do you do with this?

I think for now, they will be fine with solo. for small businesses

probably too much work for a solo dev

The REST Book extension was made by a VS Code dev and does a decent enough chunk of what is needed, at least for simple use cases.

Handy Dandy Notebook as well, but that requires some reformulation to get everything in terms of standard curl/node/python/etc commands. (whether that’s better or worse than a custom http dsl is a matter of some debate)

Also: httpBook - Rest Client

As opposed to literal hostage taking?

> rules do not apply to war, Geneva Convention notwithstanding.

I don't know what so-called international law says, but if you're going to try to apply rules to war, it seems pretty essential that they apply to all sides or no sides, otherwise you create an exploitable situation that's ripe for abuse. The reward for following the rules should be that the other parties in the conflict follow them, too. The punishment for breaking them should be that the other parties no longer follow them.

If both sides abide by the rules a war couldnt have started

The rules allow for wars. They don't prevent killing every combatant the other side has. The two sides agree to have a war, then their combatants kill one another until one side gives up or runs out of people to draft as combatants. The rules prohibit killing various classes of noncombatants, with some situational exceptions.

The supposed force behind the Geneva Convention is the threat of being tried for war crimes after the dust settles.

If you are Putin, and can accept never traveling to a list of western countries again, that threat is toothless.

But if you are literally defeated (as opposed to being forced to retreat from Ukraine, the most anyone could hope for in the invasion), it could weigh heavily on you. Or not. Politics are stupid.

that’s a very manichean view. War ist all shades of (horrible) gray and you can have rules, a lot, none, everything is possible. Don’t know what you mean with “Geneva Convention notwithstanding” here, it’s exactly the kind of rules that _can_ exist in times of war – or be completely ignored on both sides.

It’s not because it’s war time that one should just resign, shrug and accept any atrocities. The less atrocities during war time, that more chances for a stable peace afterward.

it's rare compared to other stuff. plus you have the issue of refinement.

> I try to give them problems

What does it look like in a span of an hour?

It usually amounts to asking only 2 or 3 questions and a lot of discussion. I honestly wouldn't mind if we only get through one question if it leads to good insight on the candidate.

out of box experience that provides sane defaults with minimal effort to get to working mode

Good description of what Omarchy really is. It's for two groups of people:

1/ (biggest group by far) People who are new to Linux on the desktop and, to a lesser extent, want to get out of the macOS ecosystem

2/ Power users who run Arch btw, and have probably installed, configured, partitioned, and encrypted Arch without the installer script at least a few times and now want a sane default Arch + Hyprland install with sane defaults and a production-grade environment in just a few minutes

base

Corporations and government certainly want people who can execute things that are easy, but reliably and consistently

Nashville just passed this. so did Austin.
