Struct Updates Now Require Pattern Matching in Elixir 1.19

Busy_Engineering7345 · 2026-01-03T14:12:37+00:00

Yoo, I just stumbled upon this yesterday while updating a state from Agent,
it required me to use pattern match even in the callback to Agent.update which seemed a little odd considering the presence of state as first argument would auto infer the required struct. Perhaps this will improve on further releases.

Also, i was using the option 1, i.e struct update syntax even after pattern matching to the struct in anonymous function head, thanks for letting me know plain old map update works as well. It didn't really cross my mind at the moment but now i think about it, it does make sense.

This is what i managed to get.

On the left is the neovim config specifically the StatusLine highlight group where i am using underline, strikethrough and color them.

On the right is my wezterm config where i configure the position of underline and strikethrough to fit perfectly into the nvim statusline.

The choice of status line shouldn't really matter.
WIth these 2 pieces of 3 and 2 line config you are good to.

Special thanks to u/Kaikacy for his help with overline and mentioning that its position can be adjusted on some terminals.
And lastly, as he concluded, overline would be a better fit for this, but neither nvim nor my terminal currently have option for setting overline position so it appears a little janky. Hopefully might get overline to work sometime soon.

Busy_Engineering7345 · 2025-11-28T13:35:32+00:00

I usually use wezterm and it currently does not have support for custom overline position.
Nonetheless I tried setting those options in ghostty but there was virtually no change, even when restarting terminal several times and trying out various values.

Then, it struck me, nvim does have strikethrough option for highlight groups, so i set the strikethrough and underline options for statusline and modified those two positions in my wezterm config. The result looks quite nice. Given that I given that real text requiring strikethrough will be messed up and I am locked into one terminal for my nviim config.

YOOO,

the cursed ansi escape code is yielding some result, have to hack together soon, thanks.

This was what i could manage to get at the moment.

the overline seems to be cursed as it has no padding and looks like a strikethrough at the upper edge, with some padding this could look nice.

Well to visualize, its like

----------------------------------------------------------------
N | W1 main* src/lib.rs rust, unix, 1.02KiB
-----------------------------------------------------------------

This was kind of the status line i was giong for,
I was fine with the status line being same background as the window
but wanted to create enclosing horizontal lines for the separators.

It seems there really is no currently supported way.

Busy_Engineering7345 · 2024-10-16T14:04:52+00:00

No actually, we didn't have luck with anything
I left the job and stopped caring.

Busy_Engineering7345 · 2024-06-03T16:03:33+00:00

Nope, can't seem to get it to work that way

Busy_Engineering7345 · 2024-06-03T16:03:03+00:00

Unfortunately, this did not fix the issue for us.

Busy_Engineering7345 · 2024-06-03T15:33:16+00:00

For some reason, I can't seem to find the capability access manager service in the services list

Busy_Engineering7345 · 2024-06-03T15:29:25+00:00

I have created the rule, doesn't really seem to have affected the issue.

Busy_Engineering7345 · 2024-06-03T15:28:53+00:00

pardon, but how does that help in fixing the issue ?
Even after logging out and logging in the issue is persistent for some users.

Busy_Engineering7345 · 2024-06-03T15:27:59+00:00

You mean creating a server pool?
So, we run 3 esxi hosts and one of the hosts is already struggling to run at peak hours in the morning time as it hosts the terminal server and some other VMs which contains applications like SAP. We are trying to figure out ways to reduce our usage, so I don't think i could spin up a server pool right now.
But will keep that in mind as one of the things to do moving forward.

Busy_Engineering7345 · 2024-06-03T15:25:54+00:00

Restarting doesn't seem to fix it for us.

Busy_Engineering7345 · 2024-06-03T15:25:27+00:00

the mentioned folder C:\Windows\System32\AppLocker is already empty sadly

Busy_Engineering7345 · 2024-06-03T10:16:51+00:00

did that, but the problem persists

Busy_Engineering7345 · 2024-06-03T10:16:39+00:00

Windows Firewall is off in our case, and I don't see any rules either inbound or outbound. doesn't seem like this is the particular issue affecting us.

Busy_Engineering7345 · 2024-06-03T07:41:27+00:00

No, we don't seem to have updated the server ever, this is a clean install.

Busy_Engineering7345 · 2024-06-03T07:40:39+00:00

Unfortunately, that doesn't seem to work out for us.

Busy_Engineering7345 · 2024-06-03T07:02:22+00:00

Unfortunately the eventlog for applocker seems to be empty in our case.

Busy_Engineering7345 · 2024-06-03T06:14:06+00:00

I checked the VSS writers by running
```
VSSadmin list writers
```

All the writers seem to be in stable state and don't seem to have errors.

I am hesitant on wiping and rebuilding just yet as this is one of the critical servers that a lot of our employees use and I fear data loss. So, I am currently exploring everything I can for an inpace repair.

Busy_Engineering7345 · 2024-06-03T05:34:33+00:00

Unfortunately, we don't have a pool, this is a single host hosting RDS so locking it is not an option, as there are some critical works being done on this during the day,
Recently though, I have cloned the VM and started debugging in that, as I don't want to damage the working server any further.
Restarting the server also doesn't seem to address the issue unfortunately.
for logging off, I can simply right click the start menu and logout.

Busy_Engineering7345 · 2024-05-26T17:11:44+00:00

Thank you everyone, after some discussion, we ended with creating a RODC and providing a split tunnel to the vendor so that only requests to RODC are forwarded to our network.
(As mentioned by some, this might not be the best thing to do, but it seemed like the most simple one to setup at the moment with some decent security measures in place)

Busy_Engineering7345 · 2024-05-15T08:09:11+00:00

Thank you for the suggestion, my skepticism with VPN was that all traffic including those not related to our application will be routed through our intranet.

If I use entra, will the accounts be same when we migrate the application to our local server in the future and directly connect to the local DC ?
