The UK foreign secretary has repeatedly refused to say if the UK supported the US military strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities on Saturday or whether they were legal.
Interviewed on BBC Radio 4’s Today programme on Monday [..] David Lammy also sidestepped the question of whether he supported recent social media posts by Donald Trump that seemed to favour regime change in Tehran.

L'immagine mostra un paesaggio montano mozzafiato, caratterizzato da cime rocciose e spiccate che si ergono imponenti contro un cielo azzurro punteggiato da nuvole bianche. In primo piano, un sentiero serpeggiante attraversa un prato verde, ricco di fiori selvatici, con tracce di sentieri che si snodano in diverse direzioni. Sullo sfondo, si possono vedere alcune strutture, probabilmente rifugi o alloggi, e una funivia che si estende lungo la collina, suggerendo l'attività di sci o escursione. La vegetazione è rigogliosa, con alberi e arbusti che coprono le pendici, creando un contrasto vivido con le rocce grigie delle montagne. L'atmosfera è serena e suggestiva, tipica di un'area montana in piena estate.

A Reminder - baby Squirrels running after you and clinging to the leg of your pants are not rabid !
They are doing this out of sheer desperation if they have lost their mom and have been lacking care for days. Young Squirrels are an exception in the animal kingdom - if they lose contact with their mom and suffer hunger and thirst, they gather all their courage and purposefully seek help from humans. Most of these animals are also injured by a fall from a tree. Help them. Don't hurt them. 🌰🐿🥜❤️

the truth of course, is quite the opposite.

Iran filled in nuclear site tunnels ahead of US airstrikes: Analysts
Iran likely took preemptive action to protect key parts of its nuclear infrastructure, including the Isfahan and Fordow sites, just days before US airstrikes.
The West Bank is witnessing a dangerous escalation in Israeli measures, with the occupation seemingly working to impose new realities on the ground while the region remains preoccupied with military developments.
Cities and villages across the West Bank have been placed under strict lockdown in recent days by Israeli forces, amid official silence from the Palestinian Authority and a rapid deterioration in living conditions.

Bank of America Exits Consumer Regulator’s Monitoring Three Years Early

We are using Microsoft Visual Studio Code on MacOS. There is a file "launch.json" which controls the behavior of a little clicky green triangle. The top of launch.json says "version": "0.2.0".
This documentation file:
code.visualstudio.com/docs/csh…
Claims when "type" is "dotnet", you may use a "cwd" key to specify the CWD of the run executable. However, for us, this does not work. Visual Studio displays an error on that part of the JSON, and running it, the "cwd" directory seems to be ignored.
Why?
One thing I hate about IDEs is to some extent they're like "hey, we've invented a thing that's like programming, except the documentation is really vague" mastodon.social/@whitequark/11…
upsettingly, there's no static schema you can consult stackoverflow.com/a/73366400
kinda both.
CoreCLR is the .NET Core Common Language Runtime, which is the runtime used for applications that target .NET Core (the thing we got after .NET Framework when they were retooling the whole language and runtime)
dotnet is the umbrella term given to .NET 5 onwards, so the "dotnet runtime" would be the CLR for .NET 5 and onwards (yes I know this is horrible naming).
in this case "coreclr" and "dotnet" in that file are referring to .NET Core and .NET 5+ project types respectively
so if you're explicitly targeting the (older) .NET Core stuff, then you want "coreclr". if you're targeting modern .NET (5+) then you want "dotnet".
they use slightly different project formats hence the disparity in how the launch config works. it'd be nice if VS Code didn't make this such a mess but sadly it's a big headache.
@gsuberland Wait what? .NET Core and .NET 5+ don't use different project formats though? It's both still SDK-style .csproj, no?
Also I don't think your description of CoreCLR vs .NET is quite accurate: CoreCLR is the name of the actual runtime itself that ".NET" uses, but it's not the only one: some platforms still use the Mono runtime (which yes, Microsoft still develops themselves too). CoreCLR is kind of an "implementation detail" term so it's weird that VSCode ever used it.
> they use slightly different project formats hence the disparity in how the launch config works.
Did I misread this? That says the project formats are different and *that's* why the launch config is different.
@PJB sorry I'm getting pulled in 8 different directions here and it's gotten a bit mentally overwhelming to answer everyone
I'll come back to this later if you haven't gotten it fixed
@gsuberland @PJB
- It isn't fixed
- I have however worked around it by ignoring PWD entirely and constructing paths relative to the EXE, which seems to be technically adequate for current use
- My github bug appears to have passed the triage stage so perhaps that is the best place for me to receive support
thanks
Key "cwd" is not allowed in launch.json when type is "dotnet", but documentation suggests it should be
