It's only complicated because people don't realize how it works. Half the people in this thread advocating to use rebase aren't saying when it's ok and when it's not ok and why. When it's ok: You are working on your own line and the commi

Git's commit log is a hash tree (like the bitcoin block chain). When you commit you get a SHA for that commit. Part of the SHA contains the SHA of the commit before it. When you rebase it changes the SHA's of all the commits you've made.

Unless you have a tools folder with a ton of files and Dropbox has no way to know which ones are the ones you want now. It can take up to a day to sync a large amount of files in my experience. If I have to devise some system to zip my imp

Over the years I've had hobbies that emphasize the problem in a pretty clear way. The hobbies were video games, skydiving and general aviation, and general tech all of which get some national airplay when there is an incident. You can be

To get copy/paste to play nice in OSX you have to go through some Herculean tasks. I made it work with netcat yesterday. I was running an http server to do it :) https://github.com/base698/tmux-copy-paste-mac-osx

This is the classic argument you hear a lot, particuarly from Keynsian economists is: bitcoin is bad because it's deflationary like gold. In the past when we were using gold, like during the Civil War, we couldn't pay soldiers so we went to

Why not rent it? When I bought I did so in part because I knew I could rent it. If you live in an area with terrible job prospects or no other draws that may not work.

What kind of confidence interval indicates it's statistically significant? In the sciences, in my experience, a lot of times you see 95% as the standard of confirming correlation, or is it something else? This is awesome.

What happened was bad taste to be sure, but it isn't sexism. If they made a comment asking why all the women in the audience aren't bringing them beer that would be sexist. Using sexual language is not by itself sufficient for sexism. It
