Create a virtual environment

Here I use the now-popular uv tool to create a virtual environment.

I've tried many browsers over the years, but I keep coming back to Firefox. The deciding features for me were simple: opening bookmarks in a new tab and showing search results in a new tab. I was surprised that mainstream browsers like Chrome and Edge don't provide these small conveniences, so Firefox became the obvious choice. This article documents some of the Firefox settings and tweaks I use.

One of the most criticized aspects of Windows 11 is its context menu, which splits the original menu functions into a secondary menu, making operations more cumbersome. As a result, many people choose to revert the context menu to the traditional style. However, some users prefer the Windows 11 context menu. So, is it possible to add items directly to the Windows 11 context menu? Of course! Today, I want to introduce ContextMenuForWindows11, a tool that allows you to customize the Windows 11 context menu and set it up just the way you like.

When installing Fedora 42 Workstation on a physical machine or virtual machine, you need to enable third-party repositories during the installation process. After installation, you can follow this guide to further configure your system. If you are using a different version of Fedora, some configurations in this article may not apply.

Today, I'll introduce how to use asynchronous programming in Python. This article focuses on the usage of asynchronous programming, so it won't delve too much into underlying concepts.

Brief Introduction to Concepts

• Coroutine: A special function marked with async that can execute code asynchronously.
• Event Loop: The core of Python asynchronous programming, responsible for scheduling coroutines.
• Future: A low-level object representing the eventual result of an asynchronous operation.
• Task: A wrapper for Future that can encapsulate coroutines and supports operations like cancellation.

Variance is a concept in programming that is prone to mistakes. I used to have only a vague understanding of it, so this time I specifically looked up a lot of information online to thoroughly study the issue. I also took the opportunity to write a blog post introducing it, so that if I forget in the future, I can quickly recall it.

Friends who often install operating systems should be very familiar with making bootable drives, as it is a necessary step every time an operating system is installed. If the operating system to be installed is different from the previous one, then the bootable drive has to be made again.

Is there any tool that can get this job done once and for all, thus bidding farewell to the complicated steps of making a bootable drive? There really is such a tool, which is the "bootable drive making magic tool Ventoy" to be introduced in this article!
