In a typical Rust project you organize your project into many crates. I haven't checked, but I'd guess that the vast majority of those dependencies are internal dependencies. After all, this project started by running an automated C to Rust converter, which the authors claimed produced over a thousand crates.

For what it's worth, Immich supports this too. You can create an album (for each event), create a shared link, allow public anonymous uploads for the shared link, and then give the link to everyone at the event, and ask them to upload their photos. It can be done from any web browser.

It's pretty easy these days to spin up a local Postgres container. Might as well use it for prototyping too, and save yourself the hassle of switching later.

There's a repository setting you can enable to prevent actions from running unless they have their version pinned to a SHA digest. This setting applies transitively, so while you can't force your dependencies to use SHA pinning for their dependencies, you can block any workflow from running if it doesn't.

Pulumi may be what you're looking for. Same concept as Terraform, and many of its provider libraries are just wrappers around Terraform provider libraries, but you can use a variety of common programming languages to declare your desired state, rather than HCL.

Timezones are not static, and actually change somewhat frequently. A program that converts any given future time to UTC risks becoming incorrect about when that time is due to political changes that affect the timezone the given future time was in.

I was able to get a Pasmo card as an alternative to Suica, and it was rechargable with cash. I also did the same with an Icoca card. I didn't need a Japanese address in either case. I just bought the cards from machines at a couple of the larger metro stations. They could be reloaded with cash at any metro station.

The issue of deleted repositories being available through it would still exist. Whether or not GitHub should be blamed for that is another matter.

And eBPF stands for extended Berkeley Packet Filter:

> eBPF is an extended BPF JIT virtual machine in the Linux kernel

It's really quite an amazing tool, especially since you can use it to run sandboxed programs in kernel without changing kernel source or loading a kernel module. These programs can be written using a limited dialect of C.

Some examples of its use can be found here: https://github.com/iovisor/bcc/tree/master/examples

That is one of they many ways in which you can add money to a Mullvad account. You should try creating an account; it only takes one click.
