@mitchellh @romainhuet Another annoyance when upgrading Ghostty: when I upgraded to version 1.2.1 on my MacBook at work, I lost my tab layout.

Is it possible to keep the same layout on the new version that is launched after the upgrade?

OKRs aren’t bad. But the way most teams use them? A quarterly ritual of box-checking with zero impact.
What if a good plan was all you needed?

GeoConfirmed UKR - Misinformation by President Trump.

While we typically refrain from political commentary, President Donald Trump's recent statement regarding the war in Ukraine is so egregious that we feel compelled to respond.

Several claims made by President Trump have already been debunked. We've included responses from Grok AI for each claim, demonstrating that even Grok refutes the misinformation spread by the president.

In this thread, we will provide geolocated footage as a reminder to everyone that Russia invaded Ukraine on February 24, 2022, marking the beginning of this war.

1)

The United States has not spent $350 billion on this war, nor has it outspent Europe by $200 billion. In fact, European contributions have surpassed those of the US. Moreover, a significant portion of the American military aid (around 90% !) is spend in the US, reinvesting in the US economy.

2)

President Zelensky did not claim that half the American money sent to Ukraine is "missing". He stated that half of the promised funds had not been received, which is a crucial distinction.

Ukrainian constitution prohibits elections during wartime, a measure designed to protect the democratic process from foreign interference, particularly given Russia's known capabilities in this area...

4)

President Zelensky is not a dictator, as evidenced by Ukraine's constitutional framework and his commitment to holding elections once hostilities cease. In contrast, it's worth noting that President Putin consistently wins elections in Russia with implausibly high percentages of votes, with opposition that 'falls out of windows", is poisened or jailed, raising questions about the true nature of Russia's electoral process.

President Zelensky has a approval rate above 50% and not 4%. 4% is Russian disinformation.

6)

There was no NATO expansion to the East, as NATO itself cannot expand. Instead, democratic countries independently decide whether they want to become members of the alliance. The process of joining NATO is voluntary and involves multiple steps, including meeting specific requirements and completing a formal application process.

The fact that many of Russia's former neighbors have chosen to seek NATO membership speaks volumes about their perception of Russia and their desire for collective security.

The decision of these nations to pursue NATO membership reflects their sovereign right to determine their own foreign policy and security arrangements. It also indicates a preference for the stability and security guarantees that NATO membership offers, rather than remaining under Russian influence.

Regarding the famous 'promise':
Article 103 of the UN Charter establishes a clear hierarchy in international law. It states that obligations under the UN Charter prevail over obligations under any other international agreement in case of conflict. This supremacy extends beyond just treaties, as it is generally understood to also apply to customary international law.
The hierarchy can be summarized as follows:

1) UN Charter obligations
2) Other treaties and customary international law
3) Non-treaty international texts
4) Political promises or commitments
5) Historical claims

Russia's invasion of Ukraine clearly violates fundamental principles of the UN Charter, including the prohibition on the use of force against the territorial integrity of another state. Any attempts to justify this action based on lower-ranking considerations like political promises or historical claims are legally irrelevant.

Who initiated this nearly three-year-long war? RUSSIA.

As a platform that has analyzed over 50,000 frames/videos related to the conflict, we will remind the president ,with geolocated footage, who started this war: RUSSIA.

Russia invaded Ukraine on February 24, 2022, despite repeatedly denying any plans for invasion in the preceding days.

Dagger has a PHP SDK 👀

Now PHP developers can program their build and test pipelines in the same language they program their app.

And there's full cross-language interoperability, so you can reuse the thousands of modules already developed by the Dagger community in Go, Python, Typescript... All that devops expertise is now available to you - all in PHP.

"When the last Ukrainian soldier falls, Putin will come for you."

- First, russia came for the Chechens. But we didn't even know where that is.
- Then russia came for the Georgians. But we pretended not to see it.
- Then russia came for the Crimeans and Donbas. But we pretended it was their own fault.
- Then russia came for all Ukrainians. And we still pretend russia will stop there.

Putin's invasions of Chechnya (1999), Georgia (2008), Crimea (2014) and Ukraine (2022) all lead to the same conclusion: Someone else will be next.

Will it be Moldova? The Baltics? Poland?

Russia won't stop unless it is stopped. And the only way to stop russia is by standing with Ukraine. Otherwise, russia will come for us.
