Ever since I wrote It's Time For Furries to Stop Using Telegram, I've had a few folks ask me about my opinion on Matrix.

(I've also had a few people evangelize Matrix in my mentions. That's annoying.)

My stance on Matrix has been the same for years: I don't trust the Matrix developers to produce a secure protocol, and until they abandon Olm / Megolm in favor of something like MLS, I'm adamant about refusing to trust their team's designs.

To understand why I feel so strongly about this, you need to understand that practically exploitable vulnerabilities were found in Matrix in 2022.

It isn't enough that there were vulnerabilities found to be alarming. Vulnerabilities happen. You aren't writing software if you don't occasionally fuck up.

Assigning Static IP Addresses in WSL2

WSL2 uses Hyper-V for networking. The WSL2 network settings are ephemeral and configured on demand when any WSL2 instance is first started in a Windows session. The configuration is reset on each Windows restart and the IP addresses change each time. The Windows host creates a hidden switch named "WSL" and a network adapter named "WSL" (appears as "vEthernet (WSL)" in the "Network Connections" panel). The Ubuntu instance creates a corresponding network interface named "eth0".

Assigning static IP addresses to the network interfaces on the Windows host or the WSL2 Ubuntu instance enables support for the following scenarios:

How do I make a game loop for my Idle Game?

Interval-Based Resource Generators

So, you want to build an idle/incremental game in JavaScript and you’ve read on the internet that setInterval is the way to go when it comes to handling resources that automatically generate over time.

You get started, you write down your setInterval function, you set it to trigger once every 1000 milliseconds, and every time it triggers, you add 1 to the player’s total resource count. Perfect. It works.
