Java break and continue Statements
The continue statement is used in the body of a while, do and for loop. The break statement is used in these loops, as well as in the switch statement. Iteration can be considered the execution of a loop’s body, over and over. The break statement stops the iteration. The continue statement skips one execution (rest of the statements below) of the body. This article explains the employment of the continue and break statements in Java. The while-loop compound statement will be used. For the break statement, the switch compound statement will also be used.

Dare to ask for more #rust2024
Last year, we shipped Rust 2021 and I have found the changes to be a real improvement in usability. Even though the actual changes themselves were quite modest, the combination of precise capture closure and simpler formatting strings (println!("{x:?}") instead of println!("{:?}", x)) is making a real difference in my “day to day” life.1 Just like NLL and the new module system from Rust 2018, I’ve quickly adapted to these new conventions. When I go back to older code, with its clunky borrow checker workarounds and format strings, I die a little inside.2
As we enter 2022, I am finding my thoughts turning more and more to the next Rust edition. What do I want from Rust, and the Rust community, over the next few years? To me, the theme that keeps coming to mind is dare to ask for more. Rust has gotten quite a bit nicer to use over the last few years, but I am not satisfied. I believe that there is room for Rust to be 22x more productive3 and easy to use than it is today, and I think we can do it without meaningfully sacrificing reliability, performance, or versatility.

Using the Linux fold command to make text more readable | Network World
The Linux fold takes lines of text and breaks them into chunks based on the arguments that you provide. With no arguments, fold will break lines at 80 characters.
The first example below uses a single-line text file that includes indications of character positions. First, we count the number of characters and lines in the file using the wc -l and wc -l command...

gfldex: Fuzzy commands
Reading can make one learned. Today I had a peak into lizmat´s new module shorten-sub-commands and learned about Parameter.constraint_list. We need this method to introspect a routines literal parameters.

QtQuick3D Realtime Reflections
Reflections enhance the realism of a rendered 3D scene and without it we can not have objects like mirrors or puddles of water that reflect the surrounding environment. Raster rendering pipelines like QtQuick3D can approximately calculate reflections using different methods to get good results, as opposed to Ray Tracing where reflections can be calculated accurately by following the light rays and checking where they bounce from. In this blog post, we are going to discuss two different techniques to do reflections in QtQuick3D.

Raspberry Pi: This new feature could help you get started more easily
The makers of Raspberry Pi computers have released a new boot loader that lets users install an operating system like the official OS directly on the compute board rather than via a separate computer.
Until now, Raspberry Pi owners needed the imager on a macOS, Windows or Ubuntu desktop to install the OS on a Pi device. It could also be done via another Pi device by connecting SD card readers on each of them. The new Raspberry Pi bootloader delivers network installation, cutting out the need for a second computer to install the OS.
