need a hand? man touch

check you SSH_ASKPASS and SSH_ASKPASS_REQUIRE variables

it has always bothered me that checkout is overloaded: it can switch branches or discard pending changes in an unrecoverable way.

so, PSA, you can replicate the safe part of checkout with git switch and the unsafe with git restore.

IME the longer I wait, the higher the chances of an update break something, so I update my main desktop multiple times a day.

Even writing an RFC for a mildly complicated feature to mostly describe it takes so many words and communication with stakeholders that it can be a full time job. Imagine an entire app.

yeah, and I’d say that discord is even more harmful than github as information goes there to die. It’s a waste of everyone’s time: people helping need to repeat the same things all the time, and people seeking help can’t find shit.

being punished for not giving your phone password to police sounds insane

thanks; and I’m sure some level of spying happened, but idk if there was any actual tension between the countries, especially considering that the Argentinian president was one of the first people officially informed when Brazil achieved enrichment capabilities in the 80s and later on both countries joined a bilateral inspection agreement.

maybe things were different during the dictatorship

Any sources for this story? I learned that Brazil and Argentina had long been partners in nuclear matters, and never heard of any spying or competition that took place in the last century.

you know, using a better encoding is better for your dial-up internet too

lmao

tbh if I couldn’t install Linux as a software dev, I’d consider a different job

neither are macs

Design patterns? Data structures? Shit, just pass in a list or an assoc array, and maybe a function here and there

After trying to be relaxed about data structures in python, I can say that, IMO, this is more harmful than beneficial. Good types and structures lead to good code designs.

default values is one of my pet-peeves after using Python regularly. I wish more languages would let you just do something like def do_thing(arg=default_value) without hoops like builder pattern, function overloading, or whatnot

also better to type with one hand

i like my memes open source and well maintained

no shit

I use VPN because of the ISP and the network, not to become anonymous to the websites I visit.
