If I understand the proposal correctly, it works like a stack. So you're working on "git plan --commit-message='important feature'" or whatever the syntax would be. Then you encounter a place where some refactoring

Nice idea, I encounter this problem often during work. I usually end up doing the lazier "git add -a" where a couple of unrelated small fixes get bunched together in a larger commit. Sometimes I do take the time to organise the ch

Yep, HARC is no more. I don't recall the exact history but iirc SAP withdrew its funding and HARC basically ceased to exist. Now, ohm survives as an open-source project, Bret Victor continues work with Dynamicland and Vi Hart is curren

I recently learned that only about 200,000 out of the estimated 2-5 million species of fungi have been identified. It's such a huuggee gap of knowledge! The natural world has so much more weird stuff to offer, hope we will learn a lot

I never got to understand testing. It's a thing that every developer is supposed to know and do well somehow. I always end up writing tests for my programs, but with all the stubs and fixtures and weird stuff I get into hairy problems

No clue, I just picked a random not super mainstream language as an example. I'm sure vscode is terrible for Delphi, but I'm willing to bet that the experience (with whatever third party plugins exist) will be better than any jetb

I have. IntelliJ ultimate edition still has fewer features for PHP specifically than Phpstorm. Presumably not because it actually has fewer features, but because "the debugger" now has 150 options instead of like 5. Also, these su

Part of it feels like it comes from a different development philosophy. Vscode is a "text editor" or a "code editor". Usually this means that it's fairly lightweight, supports every language under the sun, is highly

Do you have a source on that? I'm concerned about reinfection, I had it back in March last year. Got tested for antibodies, the test did detect some but concluded I didn't have immunity anymore.

The OP said that he got out 100% right? Why not get out with something along the lines of 96% of your portfolio if you made over 600% profit anyway? Eh, I would never bet 100% of my investment in a market based on knowledge I obtained mysel

I believe that it's important to understand the perspective of someone you fundamentally disagree with. Or, well, you described it more accurately, it's a bit deeper than disagreement, it's an entirely different epistemology!
