I got the name wrong, it’s phases https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/Phases In short, every commit can be in one of three phases, secret, draft, and public. Commits transition to public when you push them somewhere som

To be fair, squash is a form of rebase.

No, your not missing out… I mean, it’s a powerful tool, and like any tool, learning to use them can be helpful. Having said that, rebase is a tool that I find myself compelled to use more often than I feel it’s actually useful to use.

Yes, svn hides and pushes most of the complexity to the users workspace, and just gives up when any sort of complexity happens. Git could clearly be improved, but much of sun’s ease is due to hiding the complexity of development.

They might be exaggerating a bit the amount of work to recover it immediately, but resetting a tag to a commit in the reflog might be considered at least a minor git surgery. And that’s assuming no public pushes have been made. Then all bet

> Most of the arguments in favor of rebase are by people fanatical about having a git history organized just so. Seems to be a bit of an OCD compulsion.

Squashing and rebasing don’t fix the shitty commit message problem. Discipline and good teamwork do. All to often in rebase+squash heavy repos I start going through the history and find the mega-commit that introduced a change and gain zero

Sure can, for instance a hg-like commit stages system for rebase would prevent a lot of rebase caused issues.

> For example, apparently checking the return status of an arbitrary command is not trivial You mean the fact that it gets put into the $LASTEXITCODE variable instead of putting the command directly into the conditional?

I think it depends on the details of the install, if you can install it directly in line of the cold line input and the boiler, I think that works fine. But I think instead often the heat recovery is installed somewhere in-line after the bo

The problem is that at least until very recently, That subset of people have not been Epic's target market. UE had been targeting larger studios, and in that space, UnrealScript was largely a hindurance.

> In 2005 (the year Unity hit the market), there were thirty-nine new games on Steam. In 2021, there were over 10,000. While I think your point still holds, I think it should be noted that 2005 was 2 years after steam released. And still

Yeah, except in the early days Unity wasn’t really a production ready game engine. Very few games would release on unity and fewer made money. Unity’s profit model had generally been users who wanted to make games enough to buy a license, b

FYI, Blueprint is very much not purely functional and has exposed type classes since it changed from Kismet IIRC.

> Presumably because its antialiasing is crap? No, Slug’s technique can handle AA and do it well. The problem with Slug for general purpose UI frameworks is it needs to do a lot of pre-processing on it’s data to do the good job it does.

CloudFormation basically needs full account permissions to do it's job. We use separate AWS accounts to provide isolation. It's not great, but we've found it workable.

Really? I found the Pixel 5 to be on the small side, but the Pixel 6 is pretty large and unwieldy (imo) by comparison. Also, the Xperia 5 series is their "smaller size" flagship. It's larger than the Pixel 5, but a fait bit s

KHTML was a pretty viable alternative to the mess that was Gecko at the time. And there were already some (underserved) alternative platform ports in-progress at the time.

Thanks, our setup is pretty close to that, I got it setup with an XLR interface and I was able to tweak it a bit better still. Turns out we're moving to a new home, so I anticipate this issue will get solved with walls and doors in the

Ok, just picked up the MV7. It's a bit better than my AT2020. But I find that in order to get my Gain down low enough so that my partner isn't too distracting, I have to be right on the Mic. Which isn't a very attractive look

Thanks, I've tried a few USB Cardoid mics already, and it still picks my wife up loud and clear. I haven't yet tried a supercardoid, or to get a mic amp that allows gain adjustment. So might give that a try.

by Arelius 5y ago
I haven't, but good tips, bit expensive to just try out, but might give it a try.. The SM7B seems to be listed as Cardoid not Supercardoid?

by Arelius 5y ago
Ok, one reality I find this does not address is that not all of us have a nice silent space to work in, and most Mic's don't perform well in that space. In my case, I live in a one room Studio Loft with my wife, who is in meetings
