Updated to reflect recent v4.13 changes

v4.13: While the previous accuracy range was between 91% and 86%, the time limitation on Membean meant that you would get pretty consistent 90's and 88's. To counter this, I made the accuracy range far more unpredictable (78%-93%), which makes it seem as if the user is actively learning new words and mastering them. This change also has the upside of giving you less new words, which is nice. Finally, I restructured the way that the accuracy target is determined, because honestly the old method sucked ass.

Removes Autodocs from the Almayer (#2607)

About the pull request

Removes autodocs from medbay. They're replaced with 2 random potted plants. :)

Explain why it's good for the game

EDIT: Tomorrow I will update this PR to give nurses surgery skill.

Autodocs fundamentally and inseparably, irrevocably, DESTROY medbay and surgery gameplay. There is NO REASON, EVER to put someone through manual surgery when you could just haha autodoc them instead. Autodocs kill the good old hell medbay lines, they make surgeons extremely lazy and stagnant (Tales of surgeons doing surgery for a few minutes, then giving up and autodoccing the patient are common, not to mention the times where they miss something in the autodoc schedule), they remove all skill depth, floor, ceiling, the middle from medbay, and they also make marines complacent by having them want the funny magic robot machine rather than an actual human to treat them.

I understand that this may be too sudden of a change. If so, I propose the following: Cryo tubes could slowly heal a marine up entirely, removing organ damage and bone breaks through the course of a very slow 5-10 minutes. This will allow marines and nurses to get treated if there's no doctor around or alive. However, I think the best course of action is to just ram this change through and make medbay adapt. Embrace the suck.

Colony Guns Part 3: Longarms Rework (#2334)

About the pull request

Updates and buffs the following weapons:

  • Basira-Armstrong Rifle
  • Model 12 Bolt-Action Rifle
  • M37-17 pump shotgun
  • Dragunov sniper rifle

Basira-Armstrong Rifle

  • The BA rifle has been reflavored as the removed 'ceremonial' ABR-40, now a hunting-civilian version of the L42. It effectively has the same stats as the L42, just don't take the stock off!
  • Its magazines can only fit 12 bullets, but they still have the classic L42 kick to them. The magazines are completely compatible between both military and civilian gun types.
  • Additionally, there are now holo-targeting magazines available for the ABR-40, for hunting target capture purposes.
    • The Contractor ERT has a chance to spawn with a tacticool ABR-40 loadout, with three spare holotarget magazines on their webbing.

Model 12 Bolt-Action Rifle

  • Like its sprite implies, this is now the new Basira-Armstrong rifle.
  • Its stats have recieved an overhaul and it can now hold its own against a Xenomorph (or marine if you're CLF)
  • Additionally, its bullets will push back (not stun) targets within three meters, to increase viability for colony usage.

M37-17 Pump Shotgun

  • Did you know that the 10% damage mod this gun was supposed to have didn't work? Now it does! And it deals 15% more damage to make up for it.
  • However, it can now be melted down.

Dragunov Sniper Rifle

  • The dragunov has been revamped into a DMR, needing no skill to fire, dealing good damage, and having the same push-back feature the bolt-action now has.

Explain why it's good for the game

All of these weapons are seen as, and are, a complete joke and ignored in favor of chungillionaire among us sus impostor running around PBing xenos with buckshot. Buffing them to be useful paves the way for civilians to use civilian weaponry instead of chungillionarius.

ABR-40 Hunting Rifle

This is intended as asset recycling. IIRC, Triiodine disliked the existence of a ceremonial rifle and thought that was goofy, which is an understandable opinion, but it pains me to see the gun's cool assets go unused. I took the opportunity and made the lame and mediocre Basira into this cool gun which marines and survivors will take a lot more interest in than a Basira plinker.

While it does have L42 stats, colonists won't be able to locate any L42A ammo on the colony, meaning they are limited to 12-round magazines. Still, giving them a weapon like this is a great way to incentivize them to step out of their chungus zone.

As for the contractor addition, these are supposed to be ex-USCM mercenaries, who are trained in the usage of marine equipment. It makes sense that they'd grab the civilian version of a primary marine gun and tune it to their liking.

Basira-Armstrong Bolt-Action Hunting Rifle

Chomp made this really cool backend for a bolt-action that tragically ended up never being used, not really, aside from a half-hearted few rifles being thrown in at Shiva's Snowball. Since these guns are so weak, it's plain to see why nobody even looks at them twice. So I changed that.

M37-17 Pump Shotgun

Bugfix and a small damage buff to make up for it. It being unacidable was lame anyways. Spread projectiles are still bugged and don't inherit the base gun's damage mod, but that's out of scope.

Dragunov Designated Marksman Rifle

This gun has been a joke since 2017, it's time to give it some love. Still needs one-hand sprites but not my problem.

QVarLengthArray: fix UBs in emplace()/insert() ([basic.life], broken class invariant)

There are two problems in emplace_impl() (the same code exists as rvalue insert() since 5.10):

First, the old code updated size() at the end of the function.

However, if, after constructing the new end element, one of the subsequent move-assignments fail (throws), then the class invariant that size() be the number of alive elements in the container is broken, with the immediate consequence that the QVLA dtor would not destroy this element, but surely other unpleasantness (UB) that the C++ lifetime rules decide to throw our way.

Similarly, in the trivially-relocatable case, the memmove() starts the life-time of the new end object, so if the following placement new fails, we're in the same situation.

The latter case is worse, though, since here we leave *b in some weird zombie state: the memmove() effectively ended its lifetime in the sense that one mustn't call the destructor on the source object after trivial relocation, but C++ doesn't agree and QVLA's dtor will happily call b->~T() as part of its cleanup.

The other ugly thing is that we're using placement new into an object that C++ says is still alive. QString is trivially relocatable, but not trivially copyable, so we can't end a QString's lifetime by placement-new'ing a new QString instance into it without first having ended the old object's lifetime.

The fix for both of these is, fortunately, the same: It's a rotate!™

By using emplace_back() + std::rotate(), we always place the new object in a spot that didn't contain an alive object (in the C++ sense) before, we always update the size() right after doing so, maintaining that invariant, and we then rotate() it into place, which doesn't leave zombie objects around.

std::rotate() is such a fundamental algorithm that we should trust the STL implementors to have optimized it well: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21160875/why-is-stdrotate-so-fast

We know we can do better only for trivially-relocatable, but non-trivially-copyable types (ex: QString), so in order to not lose the memmove() optimization, we now fall back to std::rotate on raw memory for that case.

Maintain a frame pointer in aesni-gcm-x86_64.pl and add SEH unwind codes

Some profiling systems cannot unwind with CFI and benefit from having a frame pointer. Since this code doesn't have enough register pressure to actually need to use rbp as a general register, this change tweaks things so that a frame pointer is preserved.

As this would invalidate the SEH handler, just replace it with proper unwind codes, which are more profiler-friendly and supportable by our unwind tests. Some notes on this:

  • We don't currently support the automatic calling convention conversion with unwind codes, but this file already puts all arguments in registers, so I just renamed the arguments and put the last two arguments in RDI and RSI. Those I stashed into the parameter stack area because it's free storage.

  • It is tedious to write the same directives in both CFI and SEH. We really could do with an abstraction. Although since most of our functions need a Windows variation anyway.

  • I restored the original file's use of PUSH to save the registers. This matches what Clang likes to output anyway, and push is probably smaller than the corresponding move with offset. (And it reduces how much thinking about offsets I need to do.)

  • Although it's an extra instruction, I restored the original file's separate fixed stack allocation and alloca for the sake of clarity.

  • The epilog is constrained by Windows being extremely picky about epilogs. (Windows doesn't annotate epilogs and instead simulates forward.) I think other options are possible, but using LEA with an offset to realign the stack for the POPs both matches the examples in Windows and what Clang seems to like to output. The original file used MOV with offset, but it seems to be related to the funny SEH handler.

  • The offsets in SEH directives may be surprising to someone used to CFI directives or a SysV RBP frame pointer. All three use slightly different baselines:

    CFI's canonical frame address (CFA) is RSP just before a CALL (so before the saved RIP in stack order). It is 16-byte aligned by ABI.

    A SysV RBP frame pointer is 16 bytes after that, after a saved RIP and saved RBP. It is also 16-byte aligned.

    Windows' baseline is the top of the fixed stack allocation, so potentially some bytes after that (all pushreg and allocstack directives). This too is required to be 16-byte aligned.

    Windows, however, doesn't require the frame register actually contain the fixed stack allocation. You can specify an offset from the value in the register to the actual top. But all the offsets in savereg, etc., directives use this baseline.

Performance difference is within measurement noise.

This does not create a stack frame for internal functions so frame-pointer unwinding may miss a function or two, but the broad attribution will be correct.

Change originally by Clemens Fruhwirth. Then reworked from Adam Langley's https://boringssl-review.googlesource.com/c/boringssl/+/55945 by me to work on Windows and fix up some issues with the RBP setup.

Lighting source refactor (Tiny) (#73284)

About The Pull Request

I'm doing two things here. Let's get the boring bit out of the way.

Lighting source updates do three distinct things, and those things were all in one proc. I've split that one proc into three, with the first two feeding into the third.

Second, more interesting thing.

An annoying aspect of our lighting system is the math we use for calculating luminosity is hardcoded. This means that we can't have subtypes that are angled, or that have squared falloff, etc. All has to look the same. This sucks, and it shows.

It has to be, goes the thinking, because we need very fast lookups that OOP cannot provide. We can't bog down the main equation with fluff, because the main equation needs to be really speedy.

The thing about this equation is the only variants on a turf to turf basis is exactly how far turfs are from the center. So what if, instead of doing the math in our corner worker loop, we build lookup tables to match our current source's state. The tables, like a heatmap, could encode the lighting of any point along the line.

This is actually faster then doing the math each time, because the list generation can be cached. It also means we've pulled the part we want to override out of hotcode. It's cheap to override now, and a complex subtype, with angles and such would have no impact on the typical usage.

So the code's faster, easier to read, and more extensible. And we can do stuff like squared falloff for some lights in future without breaking others.

Winning!

http: support CURLOPT_PROTOCOLS_STR

The CURLOPT_PROTOCOLS (and matching CURLOPT_REDIR_PROTOCOLS) flag was deprecated in curl 7.85.0, and using it generate compiler warnings as of curl 7.87.0. The path forward is to use CURLOPT_PROTOCOLS_STR, but we can't just do so unilaterally, as it was only introduced less than a year ago in 7.85.0.

Until that version becomes ubiquitous, we have to either disable the deprecation warning or conditionally use the "STR" variant on newer versions of libcurl. This patch switches to the new variant, which is nice for two reasons:

  • we don't have to worry that silencing curl's deprecation warnings might cause us to miss other more useful ones

  • we'd eventually want to move to the new variant anyway, so this gets us set up (albeit with some extra ugly boilerplate for the conditional)

There are a lot of ways to split up the two cases. One way would be to abstract the storage type (strbuf versus a long), how to append (strbuf_addstr vs bitwise OR), how to initialize, which CURLOPT to use, and so on. But the resulting code looks pretty magical:

GIT_CURL_PROTOCOL_TYPE allowed = GIT_CURL_PROTOCOL_TYPE_INIT; if (...http is allowed...) GIT_CURL_PROTOCOL_APPEND(&allowed, "http", CURLOPT_HTTP);

and you end up with more "#define GIT_CURL_PROTOCOL_TYPE" macros than actual code.

On the other end of the spectrum, we could just implement two separate functions, one that handles a string list and one that handles bits. But then we end up repeating our list of protocols (http, https, ftp, ftp).

This patch takes the middle ground. The run-time code is always there to handle both types, and we just choose which one to feed to curl.

Captain's Spare ID Safe Can Only Hold ID Cards (#72584)

About The Pull Request

I've personally seen this strategy play out the exact same way on more than one occasion in an higher frequency lately (I've never played as either side, just witnessed it)- and it always just seems to be an abuse of a skewed in-game mechanic. So, this PR makes it so that you can only put IDs into the spare ID safe. Nothing else.

Why It's Good For The Game

I think this balance change is needed because it really sort of ruins what I like about nuclear operatives, having to run around and stay fluid for whatever the nuclear operatives could have, not "HAHA WE WILL PUT IT IN OUR (NEARLY) IMPENETRABLE SAFE THAT THEY WILL NEED TO USE A C4 DIRECTLY ON AND JUST END UP PLAYING BLOONS TOWER DEFENSE SIX AS WE AWAIT THOSE RED FUCKS TO ARRIVE". I miss when it would be fun to inject it into a monkey who could crawl around vents, put it in a disposals loop around the station to keep the nukies on a wild goose chase, or just holding your ground in the brig and retreating if they batter you down. It's just a very OP location in a very OP place with lots of warranted OP armor for it's intended use case, which is not really being followed by putting the all-important disk in the safe.

It's just very strong overall due to how protected-from-damage the spare ID safe is, and I don't really like the fact that this is emerging as a new "meta gameplay" (even used when there aren't any nuclear operatives), it just sullies the different variety of ways you can defend yourself against nuclear operatives when there appears to be the clear choice. I don't like that concept where you can have a strategy so good that you shouldn't do it.

Also, it's an ID Safe. Not a disk safe.

Changelog

🆑 balance: Due to materials costing a lot more than ever, Nanotrasen's Spare ID Safe Supplier have cut down on the space inside of the ID Safe, meaning you can only cram in things as thin as an ID Card. /🆑

[Profiler] Defer recording startup python events (take 2) (#91684)

This is my commandeer of pytorch/pytorch#82154 with a couple extra fixes.

The high level idea is that when we start profiling we see python frames which are currently executing, but we don't know what system TID created them. So instead we defer the TID assignment, and then during post processing we peer into the future and use the system TID of the next call on that Python TID.

As an aside, it turns out that CPython does some bookkeeping (https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/ee821dcd3961efc47262322848267fe398faa4e4/Include/cpython/pystate.h#L159-L165, thanks @dzhulgakov for the pointer), but you'd have to do some extra work at runtime to know how to map their TID to ours so for now I'm going to stick to what I can glean from post processing alone.

As we start observing more threads it becomes more important to be principled about how we start up and shut down. (Since threads may die while the profiler is running.) #82154 had various troubles with segfaults that wound up being related to accessing Python thread pointers which were no longer alive. I've tweaked the startup and shutdown interaction with the CPython interpreter and it should be safer now.

Auto merge of #101986 - WaffleLapkin:move_lint_note_to_the_bottom, r=estebank

Move lint level source explanation to the bottom

So, uhhhhh

r? @estebank

User-facing change

"note: #[warn(...)] on by default" and such are moved to the bottom of the diagnostic:

-   = note: `#[warn(unsupported_calling_conventions)]` on by default
   = warning: this was previously accepted by the compiler but is being phased out; it will become a hard error in a future release!
   = note: for more information, see issue #87678 <https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/87678>
+   = note: `#[warn(unsupported_calling_conventions)]` on by default

Why warning is enabled is the least important thing, so it shouldn't be the first note the user reads, IMO.

Developer-facing change

struct_span_lint and similar methods have a different signature.

Before: ..., impl for<'a> FnOnce(LintDiagnosticBuilder<'a, ()>) After: ..., impl Into<DiagnosticMessage>, impl for<'a, 'b> FnOnce(&'b mut DiagnosticBuilder<'a, ()>) -> &'b mut DiagnosticBuilder<'a, ()>

The reason for this is that struct_span_lint needs to edit the diagnostic after decorate closure is called. This also makes lint code a little bit nicer in my opinion.

Another option is to use impl for<'a> FnOnce(LintDiagnosticBuilder<'a, ()>) -> DiagnosticBuilder<'a, ()> altough I don't really see reasons to do let lint = lint.build(message) everywhere.

Subtle problem

By moving the message outside of the closure (that may not be called if the lint is disabled) format!(...) is executed earlier, possibly formatting Ty which may call a query that trims paths that crashes the compiler if there were no warnings...

I don't think it's that big of a deal, considering that we move from format!(...) to fluent (which is lazy by-default) anyway, however this required adding a workaround which is unfortunate.

P.S.

I'm sorry, I do not how to make this PR smaller/easier to review. Changes to the lint API affect SO MUCH 😢

feat: nlc entity filling (PL-000) (#449)

Fixes or implements PL-000

Brief description. What is this change?

this fix requires a long description, but the code is pretty hard to navigate as well so I'll do my best to explain. I've noticed terrible performance for the capture step/entity filling feature if the model is untrained. We should have a decent fallback measure if the NLP isn't working.

NLC is a library we use to handle regex matching against intent utterances and extracting entities when the NLP is untrained. It will only match if the user types everything correctly letter for letter.

In the current implementation of entity filling (called dialog management in the code atm, a bit confusing I know, just assume dialog management = entity filling), if we know the user is trying to fill a SPECIFIC entity of an intent, we first make a match of their intent against the general model.

Then we also check it against a dmPrefix'ed intent utterances: Screen Shot 2022-12-05 at 3 56 39 PM Screen Shot 2022-12-05 at 4 03 47 PM

These are special utterances tied to the intent, the prefix is just a hash of the intent name. When we know the user is trying to fill for a specific intent, we call the NLP and prepend the prefix to their raw text query: https://github.com/voiceflow/general-runtime/blob/8e22616890c8c4d011ea12845ae463df788d34e4/lib/services/dialog/index.ts#L125-L128

So if they said "quote for life insurance" as query we would first run it against the NLP normally and then against "1f79373e6d quote for life insurance" as query. The LUIS model already has these utterances with prefixes baked in, the NLC does not.

Also our predict code comes in 3 stages:

  1. try against the NLC regex but hard matching for slots. If the utterance is something like "quote for {insuranceType}" only valid forms of the slot are okay. They can't say "quote for toilet paper" and expect NLC to match
  2. call the actual luis-authoring-service endpoint and check against the actual NLP
  3. if the user never trained their model, try against NLC regex but open matching flow slots, If the utterance is something like "quote for {insuranceType}" then "quote for toilet paper" will match the intent and insuranceType = "toilet paper"

What this PR does is if we KNOW that we're looking for the entity of a specific intent, we pass that through when generating the NLC model, and inject that intent's slots' (intent.slots[].dialog.utterances) utterances, with prefixes, into the actual utterances of the intent.

[we have this handleDialog function for NLC]( "quote for toilet paper"), but looked through the source code, it never worked. It relies on slot.dialog.utterances which was never getting passed in: https://github.com/voiceflow/general-runtime/blob/15a8cfbad416a14af7c194bc59b1516325b50ea3/lib/services/nlu/nlc.ts#L155-L162 filledEntities never contains the dialog.utterances required, so this would be NoneIntent all the time anyways.

TLDR, if we are looking for a specific intent's slots' utterances, just add them to the regex model with a prefix.

02-16-23 v3.0.1 Commit

I noticed in a 02-15-23 playthrough and video recording that the ghost hands were no longer rendering on top of all other objects but behind (per the default). This was a bug introduced in the 2021 and Project Manager plugins update that I missed before. Tonight I fixed this and because I hadn't properly documented how I set this up before, I'm doing so now so that I have a record of what to do the next time I need to make this custom renderer customization.

[12:06 AM] Way, Matt - PRE I found another bug playing through last night.  My ghost hands are no longer on top of everything like they were.  So I watched part of the Valem Tutorial video where he set this up, verified everything in mine matches his and I remember that was a tricky one to set up.

Then I looked up ForwardRender in the Unity After Hours Club chat in Teams.  Found this: [11/17/2022 12:07 AM] Way, Matt - PRE Dev Log, Devdate 43779.3.  With only 20 minutes tonight I wasn’t able to get more than the first part of the script written 

  • That is supposed to make the ghost physical hands appear whenever the controllers get to be a certain distance away from the VR physics hands that were stopped by hitting a collider. However, while the script has no errors, a link box (per an exposed variable) that has the renderer objects linked -  Those ghost hands aren’t yet showing up. 

I also got stuck on a ForwardRenderer component I could’t find in my Projects Pane, despite having URP game objects. There is a link in his description to a Brackey video that explains this concept better and a possible other way of doing this. This renderer is meant to always force an object to the forefront. In this case the ghost hands should always be in front and not clipping through the object. 

So I have more homework to do here. 

In this same video will also be code to fix the hand grabbing (which is near impossible currently) by turning off and on the colliders. I don’t have that code typed yet but I plan to add it soon. 

So in the last little bit I fixed the clipping outside the room problem (in which teleporting into an object close to a wall collider can sometimes push you outside that collider and the room, where you then fall. 

By creating no teleport plane that I made the same size as the furniture and plant by the window and by setting it slightly above the teleport anywhere plane by about .01 I was able to create a blocked area where teleportation can’t happen. This is neater and easier than trying to shrink the teleport anywhere plane as there are still areas by the window I want people to be able to get to. 

I also duplicated this no teleport plane and positioned it under the desk and table with the food. Essentially any opportunity to teleport under/into an object and/or an object near s collider wall I want to eliminate as a teleport anywhere area. 

Thus no teleporting outside the room (hopefully). 

I also organized my hands, hands controllers and hand rays into child objects of parent objects for neatness and organization sake. 

[11/17/2022 8:47 PM] Way, Matt - PRE I'm not all the way through the second physics hand video yet but I did "unlock an achievement" tonight. Rather, a personal goal which was to get the ghost hands working. I also had to watch part of a Brackley video (linked by Valem) to understand how custom shaders and custom renders work in Unity Editor - but once I understood that I was able to use it to override and make my ghost hands always appear on top! Yay!

So while I don't have the solution listed there I guess I'm off to rewatch that Brackley video again.

[12:12 AM] Way, Matt - PRE

Got the ghost hands fixed. Brackey's videos are so well explained. I'd love for him to come back and continue doing more modern Unity Editor videos, just because his current videos will soon become out of date and that'd be a shame. But hopefully he's doing lots of cool stuff.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=szsWx9IQVDI&t=0s

So everything is set up correctly with my CustomForwardRendererData settings under Assets > Settings and all the below settings are still correct in the 2021 version of Unity Editor, so that's great.

Filtering: Opaque Layer Mask: Everything Transparent Layer Mask: Mixed... (Everything selected and then uncheck Non-Physics Hand Layer).

Rendering: Rendering Path: Forward (default) Depth Printing Mode: Disabled (default) Depth Texture Mode: After Opaques (default)

RenderPass: Native RenderPass: unchecked (default)

Shadows: Transparent Receive Shadows: checked (default)

Post-processing: Enabled: checked (default) Data: PostProcessData (Post Process Data) (default)

Overrides: Stencil: unchecked (default)

Compatibility: Intermediate Texture: Always (default)

Renderer Features:

(Add Renderer Feature button at the bottom of the Inspector window > Renderer Objects (Experimental)

Name: HolographicHands (descriptive name I gave) Event: AfterRenderingOpaques (default)

Filters: Queue: Transparent (I set) Layer Mask: Non-Physics Hand Layer (I set) LightMode Tags: List is Empty (default)

Overrides: Material: Holographic Blue (I selected from the selection box -- this is the material used for the ghost hands) Depth: checked (I checked) Depth Test: Greater (I selected) Stencil: unchecked (default) Camera: unchecked (default)

So the part that I needed to change tonight to fix the ghost hands depth (so that these always appear in front of all object and not behind when they appear) came from Brackey's video at the 1:35 mark (https://youtu.be/szsWx9IQVDI?t=95) Essentially I needed to find the correct Pipeline Asset setting file in Assets > Settings and I needed to set that to my CustomForwardRenderData (Universal Renderer Data) setting file.

But what Brackley shows in his video isn't correct for more modern versions of Unity (when he made this video 3 years ago he was using Unity 2019.1.0b9) and he also installed the "Lightweight Pipeline Asset" (where as I am using Unity 2021.3.11f1 and the URP - Universal Renderer Pipeline, at least I had thought -- I'm using the starter files that Unity provided so I didn't set this project up completely from scratch myself).

So I have multiple different PipelineAsset setting files in Assets > Settings:

Hight_PipelineAsset Low_PipelineAsset Medium_PipelineAsset Ultra_PipelineAsset UniversalRenderPipelineAsset Very High_PipelineAsset Very Low_PipelineAsset

I wasn't sure which to use so I experimented and first set all of these to CustomForwardRenderData (Universal Renderer Data) and tested and the problem was fixed.

I'd guessed that it would be the UniversalRenderPipelineAsset that was the correct settings file for my renderer type but I was wrong. I went back and set these one at a time and tested between each change and it was this way that I discovered it was t ended up being the Ultra_PipelineAsset that needed to be pointed to the CustomForwardRenderData (Universal Renderer Data) renderer setting file in order to enact the correct depth changes.

As Brackley explains this removes the Non-Physics Hand Layer from the renderer and then it adds these characters back in using this renderer feature. We then set a depth and material override (using that Non-Physics Hands layer). I set the same material (so really no changes there but I could choose a different material/shader if I wanted) and I set the depth to greater to make sure the override makes sure the Non-Physics Hands layer always renders in front of all other layers.

Lastly, the specific type of setting the CustomForwardRender is, is that this is a "Universal Render Data" file. However, when I single right-click on the Settings folder in the Project window and I hover over Create I don't see this type of file creation in any of the contextual menus or sub-menus (including under Create > Rendering..., which is where I would expect to find this). I don't recall how I came to create my Universal Renderer Data file in the first place (as it's been too long now) but if I were to guess I'd say I maybe duplicated on of the other files that had the name PipelineAsset_ForwardRenderer and then renamed it.

But problem solved with the ghost hands rendering behind other objects when they appear. They again appear in front of everything else and all it took was finding the correct PipelineAsset file and pointing it to my CustomForwardRenderData file again and making sure that my layer information was updated and correct in that file. Yay! @mattdway mattdway committed on Feb 16

Major NPCs teach spells, now with 200% less weirdness

Implemented a few dialogue additions such that certain NPCs can offer to teach the player specific Magic Signs, many of them favoring stuff the player could otherwise only get via profession or in chargen. Uses trait and dialogue stuff, because Korg's mechanics for learning spells from NPCs has some jank to it.

  • If you've reached a given point in his mission chain, Alexander can offer to teach you Free Action, Phase Shield, and Transcendent Aura.
  • After doing any mission for the rural church holdout, Sofia can teach you Heat Ward, Poison Armor, or Ward Against Evil.
  • Likewise, once the Arcane Purifier NPCs show up Nicholas can be asked to teach you Capacitance, Consecrate, or Opening.
  • Set aside traits used to dole out post-chargen Capacitance and Transcendent Aura, and also split the Keeper profession trait into two difference ones so the hermit can track if you would've started with it or not (characters in old saves will be overlooked though).
  • Misc, fixed a typo that was widely copy-pasted into a lot of magic sign descriptions.

Will add spell menu for Celine later on, is late so weh.

[FIX] stock,purchase,mrp: accumulative security days

Usecase to reproduce:

  • Set the warehouse as 3 steps receipt
  • Put a security delay of 3 days for purchase
  • Set a product with a vendor and 1 days as LT
  • Replenish with the orderpoint

You expect to have a schedule date for tomorrow that contains all the product needed in the incoming 4 days.

Currenly the internal transfer from QC -> Stock is for tomorrow (ok). The transfer from Inpur -> QC is plan for 2 days in the past. (not ok) The PO date is plan for 5 days in the past. (not ok)

It happens because the system check at each stock.rule application if purchase is part of the route. If it's then it applies the security lead time. It's a mistake because we should apply it only the first time.

To fix it we directly set it when the orderpoint run and not during stock.move creation. However for MTO it's not that easy. We don't want to deliver too early the customer. So we keep applying the delay during the stock.move creation but only when it goes under the warehouse stock location.

Another workaround for the utterly broken gui detection in nvim

Of course GUI detection wasn't fucked up enough in neovim already (see c2603e4ad5c2a3011cffc9ea58d2b5036717067e for the last rant about this topic). Instead of requiring special handling just for neovim, we now also need special treatment just for neovim 0.9, because of course they don't adhere to their own documentation anymore and v:event['chan'] may now also return 1, as a sideeffect of running the internal TUI in a separate process [0].

So to this day there is still no sane way to detect TUI in neovim, instead we have to add a hacky workaround to check nvim_list_uis() for ext_termcolors, which I am 100% confident will break in the future too.

Vim had sane API for this since forever and it is as simple as checking for has('gui_running') at any point of time, but of course neovim can't have this set at startup because we have to make everything convoluted as fuck by sourcing plugins before the UI has a chance to attach.

Why the UI is not allowed to set a flag as the very first thing in the startup sequence (and then attach later), is beyond stupid.

This is also not the first time that neovim's weird startup sequence causes problems [1].

hash-object: use fsck for object checks

Since c879daa237 (Make hash-object more robust against malformed objects, 2011-02-05), we've done some rudimentary checks against objects we're about to write by running them through our usual parsers for trees, commits, and tags.

These parsers catch some problems, but they are not nearly as careful as the fsck functions (which make sense; the parsers are designed to be fast and forgiving, bailing only when the input is unintelligible). We are better off doing the more thorough fsck checks when writing objects. Doing so at write time is much better than writing garbage only to find out later (after building more history atop it!) that fsck complains about it, or hosts with transfer.fsckObjects reject it.

This is obviously going to be a user-visible behavior change, and the test changes earlier in this series show the scope of the impact. But I'd argue that this is OK:

  • the documentation for hash-object is already vague about which checks we might do, saying that --literally will allow "any garbage[...] which might not otherwise pass standard object parsing or git-fsck checks". So we are already covered under the documented behavior.

  • users don't generally run hash-object anyway. There are a lot of spots in the tests that needed to be updated because creating garbage objects is something that Git's tests disproportionately do.

  • it's hard to imagine anyone thinking the new behavior is worse. Any object we reject would be a potential problem down the road for the user. And if they really want to create garbage, --literally is already the escape hatch they need.

Note that the change here is actually in index_mem(), which handles the HASH_FORMAT_CHECK flag passed by hash-object. That flag is also used by "git-replace --edit" to sanity-check the result. Covering that with more thorough checks likewise seems like a good thing.

Besides being more thorough, there are a few other bonuses:

  • we get rid of some questionable stack allocations of object structs. These don't seem to currently cause any problems in practice, but they subtly violate some of the assumptions made by the rest of the code (e.g., the "struct commit" we put on the stack and zero-initialize will not have a proper index from alloc_comit_index().

  • likewise, those parsed object structs are the source of some small memory leaks

  • the resulting messages are much better. For example:

    [before] $ echo 'tree 123' | git hash-object -t commit --stdin error: bogus commit object 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 fatal: corrupt commit

    [after] $ echo 'tree 123' | git.compile hash-object -t commit --stdin error: object fails fsck: badTreeSha1: invalid 'tree' line format - bad sha1 fatal: refusing to create malformed object

Console Hack / Unfavourable Events won't run ghost roles which don't have time to do anything (#73343)

About The Pull Request

Fixes #69201 The dynamic subsystem will never roll a new antagonist once the shuttle is past the point of no return, but this check is bypassed by Console Hacks and Unfavourable Event rolls (which are chiefly triggered from console hacks, but also from when the Revolution wins).

I have made these procs more discerning. Unfavourable Events will now never pick any heavy dynamic midround if the shuttle is past the point of no return. Console Hacking will now never spawn sleeper agents if the shuttle is past the point of no return, and won't spawn Fugitives or Pirates if the shuttle is called at all even if it can still be recalled

It's my feeling that given the need to get organised and move a ship to the station there isn't really time for either of those events to actually start properly rolling, but if you feel like that information might be metagamed in some way by messing around with the shuttle (not sure why or to what end, but it's technically manipulatable if you know how the code works?) I can just give these the same restriction as Traitor even if it means the bounty hunters risk showing up after the shuttle has already left.

Why It's Good For The Game

To some extent it's your own fault for clicking the popup while knowing full well how much round time is left until the game ends, but it's still disappointing to see a Blob or Pirates or Wizard alert appear at a time when they can't possibly do anything interesting. This is more true for the Pirate and Fugitive events because they involve teamwork, placing a space ship, travel between the ship and the station, and in the case of Fugitives its own internal five minute timer before the other team actually arrives.

Changelog

🆑 fix: Hacking the Comms Console or winning a Revolution can no longer spawn antagonists if there's not enough time left in the round for them to antagonise anyone. /🆑

I was checking out your Github profile and saw that you're working with GPT-3. I was hoping to pick your brain about something. I'm assuming you've done your share of "prompt engineering", and I was wondering, what is your process for this? Do you just test multiple variants in the playground until you get good enough results? How do you decide when to "settle" on a prompt?

Reason I'm asking is I've been working on a small webtool to A/B test GPT3 prompts and easily find the best-performing one:

Use rich for logging, tracebacks, printing, progressbars (#2350)

Closes #1843

Hello!

Pull Request overview

  • Use rich for logging, tracebacks, printing and progressbars.
  • Add rich as a dependency.
  • Remove loguru as a dependency and remove all mentions of it in the codebase.
  • Simplify logging configuration according to the logging documentation.
  • Update logging tests.

Before & After

rich is a large Python library for very colorful formatting in the terminal. Most importantly (in my opinion), it improves the readability of logs and tracebacks. Let's go over some before-and-afters:

Printing, Logging & Progressbars

Before:

image

After:

image

Note that for the logs, the repeated information on the left side is removed. Beyond that, the file location from which the log originates is moved to the right side. Beyond that, the progressbar has been updated, ahd the URL in the printed output has been highlighted automatically.

Tracebacks

Notes

Note that there are some changes in the logging configuration. Most of all, it has been simplified according to the note from here. In my changes, I only attach our handler to the root logger and let propagation take care of the rest.

Beyond that, I've set rich to 13.0.1 as newer versions experience a StopIteration error like discussed here.

I've replaced tqdm with rich Progressbar when logging. However, I've kept the tqdm progressbar for the Weak Labeling for now.

One difference between the old situation and now is that all of the logs are displayed during pytest under "live log call" (so, including expected errors), while earlier only warnings were shown.

What to review?

Please do the following when reviewing:

  1. Ensuring that rich is correctly set to be installed whenever someone installs argilla. I always set my dependencies explicitly in setup.py like here or here, but the one for argilla is empty, and pyproject.toml is used instead. I'd like for someone to look this over.
  2. Fetch this branch and run some arbitrary code. Load some data, log some data, crash some programs, and get an idea of the changes. Especially changes to loggers and tracebacks can be a bit personal, so I'd like to get people on board with this. Otherwise we can scrap it or find a compromise. After all, this is also a design PR.
  3. Please have a look at my discussion points below.

Discussion

rich is quite configurable, so there's some changes that we can make still.

  1. The RichHandler logging handler can be modified to e.g. include rich tracebacks in their logs as discussed here. Are we interested in this?
  2. The rich traceback handler can be set up to include local variables in its traceback:
Click to see a rich traceback with local variables

image

Are we interested in this? I think this is a bit overkill in my opinion. 3. We can suppress frames from certain Python modules to exclude them from the rich tracebacks. Are we interested in this? 4. The default rich traceback shows a maximum of 100 frames, which is a lot. Are we interested in reducing this to only show the first and last X? 5. The progress bar doesn't automatically stretch to fill the full available width, while tqdm does. If we want, we can set expand=True and it'll also expand to the entire width. Are we interested in this? 6. The progress "bar" does not need to be a bar, we can also use e.g. a spinner animation. See some more info here. Are we interested in this?


Type of change

  • Refactor (change restructuring the codebase without changing functionality)

How Has This Been Tested

I've updated the tests according to my changes.

Checklist

  • I have merged the original branch into my forked branch

  • I added relevant documentation

  • follows the style guidelines of this project

  • I did a self-review of my code

  • I added comments to my code

  • I made corresponding changes to the documentation

  • My changes generate no new warnings

  • I have added tests that prove my fix is effective or that my feature works

Fix the whole 'auto-wrapping text' mess

I've finally figured it out. Took literally hours of fiddling around with AutoWrapStaticText to work around a really weird bug, then more hours to figure out how to get the settings dialog to wrap nicely when it's opened, but it's done. It's wonderful. I never want to touch it again.

Utumno: We must link to the commit here - just a fixup (kept separate in case there is a shorter url - certainly needs to wrap better :P)

I am really curious to learn what the 'really weird bug" was - I remember wrapping being a pain so I'd like to know what made the difference finally - is it just the dc = wx.ClientDC(self) (?)

You mean wx.AutoWrapStaticText and it is wonderful

Edit: added a wx (Pep8) suffix to wx functions/overrides - makes it much easier to figure out on first read (plus if we ever want to swap gui libs this would be done by a metaclass reading off the correctly suffixed method)

[FIX] website: redirect to case insensitive URL if not exact match

Before this commit, if a link to a page was not correct because of a case mismatch, it would simply land on a 404 page. While it's correct, as URL are case sensitive, it leads to a few bad UX flow at the admin/editor level:

  • Create a link in your page (on a text or a button eg), type an URL which does not exists (to create it after) like /Page
  • Click on the link/button you just made, you are redirected to /Page which display a 404 with the "Create page" option (correct)
  • When you click on that button, it will actually create a page with /page URL, leading to a mismatch between the URL you created and the page URL. Your link/button will still lead to a 404 URL as it points to /Page.

Since it's just a fallback when an exact URL match is not found, it should not break anything and should not have bad impact at any level (seo/speed etc). Indeed:

  • It's done through a 302 redirect
  • _serve_page() is already a fallback case, so it will only make the website.redirect and 404 cases a bit slower due to the extra search query.

The only possible scenario seems to be if the user (mind the uppercase):

  • Created a /Page page
  • Created a redirect from /page to /another-page

In this case, /page won't land on /another-page but on /Page. This flow seems unlikely and is not actually wrong either way. At least, it certainly is less important than ensuring a case insensitive fallback.

Finally, note that another solution would have been to either:

  • Force page URL to lower case. -> This is not stable friendly, people might be relying on this to create pages with different casing: /Batman-VII-The-Dark-Knight-Whatevers, while not recommended, doesn't sounds idiot. On top of not being stable friendly, we probably want to keep offering this possibility
  • Redirect all URLs to lowercase endpoints. -> This is obviously not stable and not Odoo's jobs. It should be something decided by the sysadmin and done at nginx (etc) level.

Message against the war, in Russian and English

🇷🇺 Русским гражданам

Мы, участники Laminas, родились и живем в разных странах. У многих из нас есть друзья, родственники и коллеги как в России, так и в Украине. Некоторые из нас родились в России. Некоторые из нас живут в России. У некоторых бабушки и дедушки сражались с фашистами во Второй мировой войне. Здесь никто не поддерживает фашизм.

У одного из нас есть украинская родственница, которая спаслась из дома вместе с сыном. Поезд задержался из-за бомбежки на дороге впереди. У нас есть друзья, которые прячутся в бомбоубежищах. Мы с тревогой ждем весточки от них после воздушных налетов, которые беспорядочно наносят удары и попадают по больницам, школам, детским садам и домам. Мы не берем это из каких-либо СМИ. Мы наблюдаем это напрямую.

Вы доверяете нам достаточно, чтоб использовать наши программы, и мы просим вас довериться нам вновь. Мы нуждаемся в помощи. Выходите и протестуйте против этой бесполезной войны. Остановите кровопролитие. Скажите "Нет войне!"

🇺🇸 To Citizens of Russia

We at Laminas come from all over the world. Many of us have friends, family and colleagues in both Russia and Ukraine. Some of us were born in Russia. Some of us currently live in Russia. Some have grandparents who fought Nazis in World War II. Nobody here supports fascism.

One team member has a Ukrainian relative who fled her home with her son. The train was delayed due to bombing on the road ahead. We have friends who are hiding in bomb shelters. We anxiously follow up on them after the air raids, which indiscriminately fire at hospitals, schools, kindergartens and houses. Were not taking this from any media. These are our actual experiences.

You trust us enough to use our software. We ask that you trust us to say the truth on this. We need your help. Go out and protest this unnecessary war. Stop the bloodshed. Say "stop the war!"

BACKPORT: signal: add pidfd_send_signal() syscall

The kill() syscall operates on process identifiers (pid). After a process has exited its pid can be reused by another process. If a caller sends a signal to a reused pid it will end up signaling the wrong process. This issue has often surfaced and there has been a push to address this problem [1].

This patch uses file descriptors (fd) from proc/ as stable handles on struct pid. Even if a pid is recycled the handle will not change. The fd can be used to send signals to the process it refers to. Thus, the new syscall pidfd_send_signal() is introduced to solve this problem. Instead of pids it operates on process fds (pidfd).

/* prototype and argument /* long pidfd_send_signal(int pidfd, int sig, siginfo_t *info, unsigned int flags);

/* syscall number 424 */ The syscall number was chosen to be 424 to align with Arnd's rework in his y2038 to minimize merge conflicts (cf. [25]).

In addition to the pidfd and signal argument it takes an additional siginfo_t and flags argument. If the siginfo_t argument is NULL then pidfd_send_signal() is equivalent to kill(, ). If it is not NULL pidfd_send_signal() is equivalent to rt_sigqueueinfo(). The flags argument is added to allow for future extensions of this syscall. It currently needs to be passed as 0. Failing to do so will cause EINVAL.

/* pidfd_send_signal() replaces multiple pid-based syscalls */ The pidfd_send_signal() syscall currently takes on the job of rt_sigqueueinfo(2) and parts of the functionality of kill(2), Namely, when a positive pid is passed to kill(2). It will however be possible to also replace tgkill(2) and rt_tgsigqueueinfo(2) if this syscall is extended.

/* sending signals to threads (tid) and process groups (pgid) */ Specifically, the pidfd_send_signal() syscall does currently not operate on process groups or threads. This is left for future extensions. In order to extend the syscall to allow sending signal to threads and process groups appropriately named flags (e.g. PIDFD_TYPE_PGID, and PIDFD_TYPE_TID) should be added. This implies that the flags argument will determine what is signaled and not the file descriptor itself. Put in other words, grouping in this api is a property of the flags argument not a property of the file descriptor (cf. [13]). Clarification for this has been requested by Eric (cf. [19]). When appropriate extensions through the flags argument are added then pidfd_send_signal() can additionally replace the part of kill(2) which operates on process groups as well as the tgkill(2) and rt_tgsigqueueinfo(2) syscalls. How such an extension could be implemented has been very roughly sketched in [14], [15], and [16]. However, this should not be taken as a commitment to a particular implementation. There might be better ways to do it. Right now this is intentionally left out to keep this patchset as simple as possible (cf. [4]).

/* naming */ The syscall had various names throughout iterations of this patchset:

  • procfd_signal()
  • procfd_send_signal()
  • taskfd_send_signal() In the last round of reviews it was pointed out that given that if the flags argument decides the scope of the signal instead of different types of fds it might make sense to either settle for "procfd_" or "pidfd_" as prefix. The community was willing to accept either (cf. [17] and [18]). Given that one developer expressed strong preference for the "pidfd_" prefix (cf. [13]) and with other developers less opinionated about the name we should settle for "pidfd_" to avoid further bikeshedding.

The "_send_signal" suffix was chosen to reflect the fact that the syscall takes on the job of multiple syscalls. It is therefore intentional that the name is not reminiscent of neither kill(2) nor rt_sigqueueinfo(2). Not the fomer because it might imply that pidfd_send_signal() is a replacement for kill(2), and not the latter because it is a hassle to remember the correct spelling - especially for non-native speakers - and because it is not descriptive enough of what the syscall actually does. The name "pidfd_send_signal" makes it very clear that its job is to send signals.

/* zombies */ Zombies can be signaled just as any other process. No special error will be reported since a zombie state is an unreliable state (cf. [3]). However, this can be added as an extension through the @flags argument if the need ever arises.

/* cross-namespace signals */ The patch currently enforces that the signaler and signalee either are in the same pid namespace or that the signaler's pid namespace is an ancestor of the signalee's pid namespace. This is done for the sake of simplicity and because it is unclear to what values certain members of struct siginfo_t would need to be set to (cf. [5], [6]).

/* compat syscalls */ It became clear that we would like to avoid adding compat syscalls (cf. [7]). The compat syscall handling is now done in kernel/signal.c itself by adding __copy_siginfo_from_user_generic() which lets us avoid compat syscalls (cf. [8]). It should be noted that the addition of __copy_siginfo_from_user_any() is caused by a bug in the original implementation of rt_sigqueueinfo(2) (cf. 12). With upcoming rework for syscall handling things might improve significantly (cf. [11]) and __copy_siginfo_from_user_any() will not gain any additional callers.

/* testing */ This patch was tested on x64 and x86.

/* userspace usage */ An asciinema recording for the basic functionality can be found under [9]. With this patch a process can be killed via:

#define _GNU_SOURCE #include <errno.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <signal.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <string.h> #include <sys/stat.h> #include <sys/syscall.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <unistd.h>

static inline int do_pidfd_send_signal(int pidfd, int sig, siginfo_t *info, unsigned int flags) { #ifdef __NR_pidfd_send_signal return syscall(__NR_pidfd_send_signal, pidfd, sig, info, flags); #else return -ENOSYS; #endif }

int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { int fd, ret, saved_errno, sig;

     if (argc < 3)
             exit(EXIT_FAILURE);

     fd = open(argv[1], O_DIRECTORY | O_CLOEXEC);
     if (fd < 0) {
             printf("%s - Failed to open \"%s\"\n", strerror(errno), argv[1]);
             exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
     }

     sig = atoi(argv[2]);

     printf("Sending signal %d to process %s\n", sig, argv[1]);
     ret = do_pidfd_send_signal(fd, sig, NULL, 0);

     saved_errno = errno;
     close(fd);
     errno = saved_errno;

     if (ret < 0) {
             printf("%s - Failed to send signal %d to process %s\n",
                    strerror(errno), sig, argv[1]);
             exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
     }

     exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);

}

/* Q&A

  • Given that it seems the same questions get asked again by people who are
  • late to the party it makes sense to add a Q&A section to the commit
  • message so it's hopefully easier to avoid duplicate threads.
  • For the sake of progress please consider these arguments settled unless
  • there is a new point that desperately needs to be addressed. Please make
  • sure to check the links to the threads in this commit message whether
  • this has not already been covered. */ Q-01: (Florian Weimer [20], Andrew Morton [21]) What happens when the target process has exited? A-01: Sending the signal will fail with ESRCH (cf. [22]).

Q-02: (Andrew Morton [21]) Is the task_struct pinned by the fd? A-02: No. A reference to struct pid is kept. struct pid - as far as I understand - was created exactly for the reason to not require to pin struct task_struct (cf. [22]).

Q-03: (Andrew Morton [21]) Does the entire procfs directory remain visible? Just one entry within it? A-03: The same thing that happens right now when you hold a file descriptor to /proc/ open (cf. [22]).

Q-04: (Andrew Morton [21]) Does the pid remain reserved? A-04: No. This patchset guarantees a stable handle not that pids are not recycled (cf. [22]).

Q-05: (Andrew Morton [21]) Do attempts to signal that fd return errors? A-05: See {Q,A}-01.

Q-06: (Andrew Morton [22]) Is there a cleaner way of obtaining the fd? Another syscall perhaps. A-06: Userspace can already trivially retrieve file descriptors from procfs so this is something that we will need to support anyway. Hence, there's no immediate need to add another syscalls just to make pidfd_send_signal() not dependent on the presence of procfs. However, adding a syscalls to get such file descriptors is planned for a future patchset (cf. [22]).

Q-07: (Andrew Morton [21] and others) This fd-for-a-process sounds like a handy thing and people may well think up other uses for it in the future, probably unrelated to signals. Are the code and the interface designed to permit such future applications? A-07: Yes (cf. [22]).

Q-08: (Andrew Morton [21] and others) Now I think about it, why a new syscall? This thing is looking rather like an ioctl? A-08: This has been extensively discussed. It was agreed that a syscall is preferred for a variety or reasons. Here are just a few taken from prior threads. Syscalls are safer than ioctl()s especially when signaling to fds. Processes are a core kernel concept so a syscall seems more appropriate. The layout of the syscall with its four arguments would require the addition of a custom struct for the ioctl() thereby causing at least the same amount or even more complexity for userspace than a simple syscall. The new syscall will replace multiple other pid-based syscalls (see description above). The file-descriptors-for-processes concept introduced with this syscall will be extended with other syscalls in the future. See also [22], [23] and various other threads already linked in here.

Q-09: (Florian Weimer [24]) What happens if you use the new interface with an O_PATH descriptor? A-09: pidfds opened as O_PATH fds cannot be used to send signals to a process (cf. [2]). Signaling processes through pidfds is the equivalent of writing to a file. Thus, this is not an operation that operates "purely at the file descriptor level" as required by the open(2) manpage. See also [4].

Merge branch 'inf-190-bye-listboxes-pt1' into dev

And important merge that begins tackling one of WB's uglies GUI warts: balt.ListBoxes. Not only is the code a mess (just look at ListBoxes.init for a taste), but the class can also do three separate styles of behavior (several ListBox instances, several CheckListBox instances or a TreeCtrl) and to top it all off, the TreeCtrl version changes the input format of one of the parameters to suddently be a dict instead of a list.

Additionally, from an end-user perspective, ListBoxes are just plain ugly and nigh-on unusable. They're never sized right, they usually don't wrap right when you resize them, and even if you do put in the effort and get one resized to look nice, it doesn't even remember that and will just start with a weird, probably-too-big automatic size anyways.

All around, not a good time. This branch first solves the wrapping problem once and for all by introducing gui.WrappingLabel, which automatically word-wraps when the GUI is resized. You still have to do some work to initially wrap it properly when the GUI is created (see settings_dialog.py for a particularly painful case), but it's actually possible to get a responsive label in the GUI with this.

Next up, the branch replaces the ListBoxes popup used when an item is deleted with a custom popup. This popup also enables us to drop some internal complications and unify the deletion logic for all the tabs. We even get a nice way to decide visually if you want to recycle or permanently delete items.

Next were the Sync From Data, Clean Data and Monitor External Installation popups. I created a new class, AMultiListEditor, that fulfills the same purpose as the CheckListBox flavor of ListBoxes, but with much better UX. For example, you can search with this one. There are buttons for mass selecting and unselecting (rather than it being an obscure right-click command). Wrapping works. And best of all, it remembers when you resize it!

Finally, a small interlude commit enables an ancient option that has sat, commented out, in WB's codebase since at least the 271 days. On the Installers tab, you can now sort simple packages before complex ones. I also renamed the relevant Sort By options for more consistency and clarity (the rest of this work is on nightly).

Merging this now because nightly is already really big and I don't want to resolve more conflicts. I tested it pretty thoroughly and everything works great.

Under #190

Manually copy trailing attributes on a resize (#12637)

THE WHITE WHALE

This is a fairly naive fix for this bug. It's not terribly performant, but neither is resize in the first place.

When the buffer gets resized, typically we only copy the text up to the MeasureRight point, the last printable char in the row. Then we'd just use the last char's attributes to fill the remainder of the row.

Instead, this PR changes how reflow behaves when it gets to the end of the row. After we finish copying text, then manually walk through the attributes at the end of the row, and copy them over. This ensures that cells that just have a colored space in them get copied into the new buffer as well, and we don't just blat the last character's attributes into the rest of the row. We'll do a similar thing once we get to the last printable char in the buffer, copying the remaining attributes.

This could DEFINITELY be more performant. I think this current implementation walks the attrs on every cell, then appends the new attrs to the new ATTR_ROW. That could be optimized by just using the actual iterator. The copy after the last printable char bit is also especially bad in this regard. That could likely be a blind copy - I just wanted to get this into the world.

Finally, we now copy the final attributes to the correct buffer: the new one. We used to copy them to the old buffer, which we were about to destroy.

Validation

I'll add more gifs in the morning, not enough time to finish spinning a release Terminal build with this tonight.

Closes #32 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Closes #12567

Update CI to use GitHub's Merge Queue (#5766)

GitHub recently made its merge queue feature available for use in public repositories owned by organizations meaning that the Wasmtime repository is a candidate for using this. GitHub's Merge Queue feature is a system that's similar to Rust's bors integration where PRs are tested before merging and only passing PRs are merged. This implements the "not rocket science" rule where the main branch of Wasmtime, for example, is always tested and passes CI. This is in contrast to our current implementation of CI where PRs are merged when they pass their own CI, but the code that was tested is not guaranteed to be the state of main when the PR is merged, meaning that we're at risk now of a failing main branch despite all merged PRs being green. While this has happened with Wasmtime this is not a common occurrence, however.

The main motivation, instead, to use GitHub's Merge Queue feature is that it will enable Wasmtime to greatly reduce the amount of CI running on PRs themselves. Currently the full test suite runs on every push to every PR, meaning that our workers on GitHub Actions are frequently clogged throughout weekdays and PRs can take quite some time to come back with a successful run. Through the use of a Merge Queue, however, we're able to configure only a small handful of checks to run on PRs while deferring the main body of checks to happening on the merge-via-the-queue itself. This is hoped to free up capacity on CI and overall improve CI times for Wasmtime and Cranelift developers.

The implementation of all of this required quite a lot of plumbing and retooling of our CI. I've been testing this in an external repository and I think everything is working now. A list of changes made in this PR are:

  • The build.yml workflow is merged back into the main.yml workflow as the original reason to split it out is not longer applicable (it'll run on all merges). This was also done to fit in the dependency graph of jobs of one workflow.

  • Publication of the gh-pages branch, the dev tag artifacts, and release artifacts have been moved to a separate publish-artifacts.yml workflow. This workflow runs on all pushes to main and all tags. This workflow no longer actually preforms any builds, however, and relies on a merge queue or similar being used for branches/tags where artifacts are downloaded from the workflow run to be uploaded. For pushes to main this works because a merge queue is run meaning that by the time the push happens all artifacts are ready. For release branches this is handled by..

  • The push-tag.yml workflow is subsumed by the main.yml workflow. CI for a tag being pushed will upload artifacts to a release in GitHub, meaning that all builds must finish first for the commit. The main.yml workflow at the end now scans commits for the preexisting magical marker and pushes a tag if necessary.

  • CI is currently a flat list of "run all these jobs" and this is now rearchitected to a "fan out" approach where some jobs run to determine the next jobs to run which then get "joined" into a finish step. The purpose for this is somewhat nuanced and this has implications for CI runtime as well. The Merge Queue feature requires branches to be protected with "these checks must pass" and then the same checks are gates both to enter the merge queue as well as pass the merge queue. The saving grace, however, is that a "skipped" check counts as passing, meaning checks can be skipped on PRs but run to completion on the merge queue. A problem with this though is the build matrix used for tests where PRs want to only run one element of the build matrix ideally but there's no means on GitHub Actions right now for the skipped entries to show up as skipped easily (or not that I know of). This means that the "join" step serves the purpose of being the single gate for both PR and merge queue CI and there's just more inputs to it for merge queue CI. The major consequence of this decision is that GitHub's actions scheduling doesn't work out well here. Jobs are scheduled in a FIFO order meaning that the job for "ok complete the CI run" is queued up after everything else has completed, possibly after lots of other CI requests in the middle for other PRs. The hope here is that by using a merge queue we can keep CI relatively under control and this won't affect merge times too much.

  • All jobs in the main.yml workflow will not automatically cancel the entire run if they fail. Previously this fail-fast behavior was only part of the matrix runs (and just for that matrix), but this is required to make the merge queue expedient. The gate of the merge queue is the final "join" step which is only executed once all dependencies have finished. This means, for example, that if rustfmt fails quickly then the tests which take longer might run for quite awhile before the join step reports failure, meaning that the PR sits in the queue for longer than needed being tested when we know it's already going to fail. By having all jobs cancel the run this means that failures immediately bail out and mark the whole job as cancelled.

  • A new "determine" CI job was added to determine what CI actually needs to run. This is a "choke point" which is scheduled at the start of CI that quickly figures out what else needs to be run. This notably indicates whether large swaths of ci (the run-full flag) like the build matrix are executed. Additionally this dynamically calculates a matrix of tests to run based on a new ./ci/build-test-matrix.js script. Various inputs are considered for this such as:

    1. All pushes, meaning merge queue branches or release-branch merges, will run full CI.
    2. PRs to release branches will run full CI.
    3. PRs to main, the most common, determine what to run based on what's modified and what's in the commit message.

    Some examples for (3) above are if modifications are made to cranelift/codegen/src/isa/* then that corresponding builder is executed on CI. If the crates/c-api directory is modified then the CMake-based tests are run on PRs but are otherwise skipped. Annotations in commit messages such as prtest:* can be used to explicitly request testing.

Before this PR merges to main would perform two full runs of CI: one on the PR itself and one on the merge to main. Note that the one as a merge to main was quite frequently cancelled due to a merge happening later. Additionally before this PR there was always the risk of a bad merge where what was merged ended up creating a main that failed CI to to a non-code-related merge conflict.

After this PR merges to main will perform one full run of CI, the one as part of the merge queue. PRs themselves will perform one test job most of the time otherwise. The main branch is additionally always guaranteed to pass tests via the merge queue feature.

For release branches, before this PR merges would perform two full builds - one for the PR and one for the merge. A third build was then required for the release tag itself. This is now cut down to two full builds, one for the PR and one for the merge. The reason for this is that the merge queue feature currently can't be used for our wildcard-based release-* branch protections. It is now possible, however, to turn on required CI checks for the release-* branch PRs so we can at least have a "hit the button and forget" strategy for merging PRs now.

Note that this change to CI is not without its risks. The Merge Queue feature is still in beta and is quite new for GitHub. One bug that Trevor and I uncovered is that if a PR is being tested in the merge queue and a contributor pushes to their PR then the PR isn't removed from the merge queue but is instead merged when CI is successful, losing the changes that the contributor pushed (what's merged is what was tested). We suspect that GitHub will fix this, however.

Additionally though there's the risk that this may increase merge time for PRs to Wasmtime in practice. The Merge Queue feature has the ability to "batch" PRs together for a merge but this is only done if concurrent builds are allowed. This means that if 5 PRs are batched together then 5 separate merges would be created for the stack of 5 PRs. If the CI for all 5 merged together passes then everything is merged, otherwise a PR is kicked out. We can't easily do this, however, since a major purpose for the merge queue for us would be to cut down on usage of CI builders meaning the max concurrency would be set to 1 meaning that only one PR at a time will be merged. This means PRs may sit in the queue for awhile since previously many main-based builds are cancelled due to subsequent merges of other PRs, but now they must all run to 100% completion.

Run Vaultwarden natively

Containers are pain in the ass if all you're looking for is to self host a bunch of tiny services. The reality, however, bites since there lots of software without proper packages for Linux distributions.

This patch moves Vaultwarden from running in Podman to be run natively via old plain systemd unit. For that to happen we first need to unpack Vaultwarden from the docker image to disk, and then run it in isolated environment.

Part of the reason why I want this is to play a bit with systemd sandboxing functionality to understand better its pros and cons.

🌱completes story 4 (garden metadata creation)🌱

poetry add pydantic

pydantic models for (many) datacite fields

new file metadata.py with pydantic definitions, contents are currently just what was generated with https://github.com/koxudaxi/datamodel-code-generator/, which I fed the datacite 4.3 json schema found at https://github.com/datacite/schema/blob/da8e10655cd9d6fffadf11fee142d406fb6f59cc/source/json/kernel-4.3/datacite_4.3_schema.json. Note that they don't have a similar json schema for 4.4 (only xsd) so whatever we keep from this this should probably be double-checked for compatibility. If it turns out the 4.4 xsd is easy to convert to json schema there's no reason not to, I just didn't find an easy way to do it.

Implement basic Garden pydantic model

The new file model.py contains a much, much simpler pydantic model than the auto-generated one from the datacite 4.3 schema.

It also contains a TempField enum, just for use with default values like we discussed during the gathertown meeting Tuesday.

The model is certainly not complete, but the next steps that I see are likely to be a bit more involved and/or require some hand-holding for a design decision.

These are obviously not all the fields we'll want eventually - I'm not even sure if these are all the fields we want today. These were just the fields I was pretty sure were safe to include, and I put a handful of non-required fields in there too so that we had some TempField.REQUIREDs and some TempField.WARNs

In particular, the actual validation can occur at a few different places and can be more or less involved, depending on how much work we want a validator to do for us.

For example, I think it would be straightforward to have the validator for the doi just automatically try and hit the datacite API if the user didn't explicitly provide one, OR we could force the user to call a distinct register_new_doi function (which would naturally perform some validation when it builds the json payload for the request).

Similarly, I think we'll want the creators field to be more than just plain strings and while I think the nameparser library looks really promising and I'd love to build that into the validation step, I don't know if it's worth tying ourselves to it yet.

adding comments, minimal create_garden() method

implements method to write metadata.json to cwd

Couple of ideas here, both plausibly Bad Ideas.

The first is a validator check_tempfield. This is called on every explicit field update, just to check for values that are still TempFields, which should only ever show up as unchecked defaults (i.e. only as the first arg to a pydantic Field function invocation). The idea is that we want a validator to catch the unset-default values eventually, but not until the user has done something to indicate that they think they've provided enough info.

If a user is invoking a register_garden method, they presumably think they're done defining the model metadata, so we verify that by

  1. exporting their model to a python dict
  2. feeding that dict into the Garden constructor as **kwargs

The idea is that any still-unset defaults would look (to pydantic) like someone manually setting e.g. title=TempField.REQUIRED, which will trigger the check_tempfield validator.

The exceptions that validators raise should already be pretty logs-friendly and human-friendly, if this works how I think it does.

poetry fix

typing typo

flake8 keeping me honest

fix: doi check was skipping when given regex

I'm not sure if this is me misunderstanding that argument, or if this is a pydantic bug, but it's not the end of the world to take it out

updated create_garden method

add Gardento __all__ export list

refactor Garden to not use TempField defaults hack

implement validate method for Garden

Note that this shadows a classmethod provided by pydantic's BaseModel, which also happens to be the only undocumented BaseModel helper function. I'm also happy to note that the hacky-feeling _ = Garden(**garden_to_validate) trick to force validation is exactly how the library method does it under the hood.

I'd even go as far as to say that I'm feeling pretty validated, myself.

refactor/cleanup model.py and register_garden

pytest fixtures for varyingly incomplete gardens

🐛 tests were probably a good idea all along

cleanup, more tests

validate year field

real doi prefix

cleanup + test json

refactor creator -> author

fix: forgot to return validated year str

remove owen-specific deps from poetry

Alerts admins whenever humans try to gib another human. (#2560)

About the pull request

Successor to #2237 that properly addresses the issues brought up by myself and others. This sends a admin alert similar to when a pred activates their SD that allows admins to jump to the (strictly human) player gibbing another human/human corpse and sleep them/amessage them. This also creates logs when someone attempts to stuff someone into a gibber. I also fixed up some of the single letter variables in the gibber code.

Explain why it's good for the game

Insanity RP is bad, and this solution allows admins to respond in realtime. It takes 30 seconds to gib another human as a human, without any skill modifiers helping. It also doesn't flag the player if they're a pred, as they're supposed to be doing funny human meat stuff.

[MIRROR] [MDB IGNORE] more span macro changes in brain traumas and disease files (#4464)

About The Pull Request

i was fucking around with brain traumas on a downstream and noticed they had similar issues to quirks so i decided to continue work from #73116

Code_Klx14O288V (search in VSC for span class = 'notice') its going to be a bit of a thing to get all of these but this is a decent chunk i think

there was only one annoying/tough file. imaginary_friend.dm had class = 'game say' and class = 'emote' both of which after some testing did not seem like they did anything. ill try to keep that in mind in other files if i continue to do this but i either omitted them because they didnt have any formatting or, in the case of emote, turned it into name, which i think is what you'd want those messages to look like.

there were also a few small spelling errors that i fixed

Why It's Good For The Game

more consistent and stops people from copying brain trauma formatting wrong

Changelog

they should all work the same
