processhacker VS sdk

You can also use tools like Simplewall, Wireshark, Sandboxie /Cuckoo Sandbox, Process Explorer/Process Hacker to help you with this analyze and also to protect you system and data.

Interesting project, nice use of the egui crate. I usually write this kind of thing in C, might be a good time to RIIR. I personally prefer the windows crate because it is official and generated directly from the API metadata. FYI Process Hacker can do DLL injection and a lot more, in case you're looking for a powerful tool

I downloaded Process Hacker: https://processhacker.sourceforge.io/

Other application that was useful for me in similar situation was Process Hacker: https://processhacker.sourceforge.io/

I would like to use the WinStationShadow function in my small project. I would like to write a console RDP shadow switch utility. I found the Process Hacker use this function. See: https://github.com/processhacker/processhacker/blob/master/ProcessHacker/sessshad.c (at line 215)

Could be some pre-installed bloatware. Process Hacker, which is a beefed-up Task Manager, helped me isolate needless services and processes that were clogging up my CPU. It made a noticeable difference once I pruned out the detritus, plus it has a feature to always launch noita.exe with High CPU priority.

I opened an issue since I couldn't find docs that indicate what they were working on to improve the start time, and they replied:

https://github.com/dotnet/sdk/issues/49197

It's not about being "cool"

It's about the motives

"it's open source"

"it now works on linux"

it all doesn't matter if they'll go after your ass if you dare build tooling with their debugger (jetbrains)

of when they want to remove a feature overnight to make it exclusive to visual studio windows

https://github.com/dotnet/sdk/issues/22247

it's this kind of things that makes it hard to recommend to people, and Microsoft can't be trusted

I hate to defend telemetry of all things but in this particular case the criticism is unfounded and lacks context:

https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/platform/telemetry

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/tools/telemetr...

https://github.com/dotnet/sdk/tree/main/src/Cli/dotnet/Telem...

In any case, Debian would use https://github.com/dotnet/source-build and dotnet/dotnet, and could easily include the argument or a patch for this. It’s unlikely to be an issue. My bet it was not in Debian because there was no one to take initiative or there was but that person has faced a backlash by people in Debian who are similar to vocal minority here that posts FUD because of their little personal crusade.

FWIW telemetry can be easily opted-out, which the SDK explicitly tells you about, and there is a page that has full list of the kind of data that is collected (usage metrics and tooling crash stack traces). You can also review the metrics yourself.

About: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/tools/telemetr...

Collected statistics: https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/platform/telemetry

Source code: https://github.com/dotnet/sdk/tree/main/src/Cli/dotnet/Telem...

In either case, many CIs simply have 'DOTNET_CLI_TELEMETRY_OPTOUT=' and call it a day.

They used to gather all command line arguments until they later decided that (oops!) it's "not acceptable per our privacy policies"[0] and they really shouldn't have been doing that. They have also had issues with anonymization not being implemented properly, the opt-out mechanism not working in some edge cases, forgetting to even tell users about the need to opt out, and who knows what else.

Also, monetary value is not the only reason you might want to keep information private.

> There's definitely things they tried to improve on that... weren't really improvements. The way "assemblies" are matched in .NET is much more sophisticated- the goal there was to try to kill DLL hell. It evolved into the Global Assembly Cache, which is sort of the Windows Registry of DLLs. Not a huge fan of those bits.

The Global Assembly Cache did not make the jump to the modern .NET (Core). There was the thing called `dotnet store`, but it’s broken since .NET 6: https://github.com/dotnet/sdk/issues/24752

The assembly redirection hell has also been greatly reduced there.

I do the same.

I have a small write-up here: https://chrlschn.dev/blog/2023/10/end-to-end-type-safety-wit...

You get end-to-end type safety (even better once you connect it to EF Core since you get it all ways to your DB).

With this setup with hot-reload (currently broken in .NET 8 [0]), productivity is really, really good. Like tRPC but with one of the most powerful ORMs out there right now.

Noticed an open issue just now.
