Get all Go modules up-to-date

 This is the secret weapon that I have been looking for. In the Rust ecosystem, there is the cargo commands. 

The final piece of the puzzle: Margins.jl

 With the arrival of margins.jl, the Julia ecosystem for data analysis is finally complete. 

Manjaro Immutable

 This is huge. Over the years, the only complaint I have got against Manjaro is that sometime the updates can break the system. It does not happen often but when it does, it is very annoying. I assume this will eliminate the breakage problem once and for all! 

Using yazi on Windows

 Yazi is my favorite file manager on Linux. On Windows, however, I have been having trouble with file previewing and file opening. Today I asked Google Gemini about this and the answer was:

---

3. Important Windows Requirement: file

Yazi uses the file command to determine if a file is "text" or "image." Windows doesn't have this by default.

• Recommendation: Install Git for Windows. It includes a file.exe utility.

• Tell Yazi where it is by adding this to your Nushell env.nu (open with config env):

  Code snippet

  $env.YAZI_FILE_ONE = 'C:\Program Files\Git\usr\bin\file.exe'

---

This actually solved the problem.

Agents.jl vs. Vanaha.jl

NLRX tricks

 I just realized that it is possible to combine `runtime` and `stopcond` options to accommodate the situation that most NetLogo simulation runs can reach equilibrium but some cannot. In my case, I used the following code:

runtime = 300,

stopcond = "all? turtles [happy?]",

With amazing results. 

Vim + VSCode tips

 I find this post super helpful.

Vmware Workstation on Windows 11

 I finally figured out why Vmware Workstation virtual machines are so slow on Windows 11. Here are the steps:

1. Disable Hyper-V on Windows, following the instructions here. 
2. Install the virtual machine system.
3. If typing in the virtual machine is slow, the fix can be found here and here.

This is especially important because now Vmware Workstation is free for personal use. This is the instruction to follow.
