But it’s Linus so everybody likes to think everything he says is blunt and crass.

For some reason I first read the title as “journalists take to archiving their own hands” and thought this was some morbid kind of protest.

Industry is like a triangle and if you move towards one corner you have to move away from another:

Java and JavaScript are like car and carpet because despite the beginning of the names matching they serve different purposes. In the early web days Java applets were a thing and it failed which is why a new language was needed. It’s not a secret that there was pressure to make Javascript look like Java, that’s just not the point of the figure of speech.

I popped the keys off my Topre with a keycap puller and rearranged them. Both the Backspace and Caps Lock function as a backspace, but I couldn’t find a keycap labeled “Backspace” that physically fit in the Caps Lock key’s place so that particular label is deceiving.

Upvoted for the concise summary.

A better approach is to optimistically merge most changes as soon as not-rocket-science allows it, and then later review the code in situ, in the main branch.

I upvoted before reviewing the article in situ, then I had to go back and fix my upvote.

Threads integrating with Mastodon is bad news. Flipboard integrating with Mastodon? Interesting I guess? Hampers Meta’s 4E strategy I suppose.

What is it you need that a centralized version control system offers that a distributed version control system doesn’t? For instance you could use git or pijul for a monorepo.

I did speak for myself. I said “In my opinion”.

Working in a busy codebase for a long time when I have to spend time a non-trivial amount of time triaging through tickets I can’t reproduce that is taking time away from legitimate bug and request tickets I can be working on. It can seriously lead to burnout.

In my opinion that sounds like a plus. People that are too lazy to register an account to put in a code merge request or report a bug aren’t going to be writing quality code or quality bug reports.

It’s all good just make sure you have an up-to-date ublock-based extension: https://reddit.com/r/uBlockOrigin/comments/17j6ygs/youtube_antiadblock_and_ads_october_29_2023_mega/

As of writing this Adblock Plus isn’t working with Youtube but no reason you should be using that over ublock origin anyways.

And the site’s dark mode is fantastic…

The blog and videos are great. His constant stream of thoughts from Mastodon might be too much Amos content in my life though.

Providing a name is optional so for many users its just an email address.

Where on the radar dashboard can I see that exact graph?
