Yes, this is it! The default behaviour of gitlab was actually rather unexpected to me in that it cleverly gives the pull request a version which persists after rebasing etc. But I actually expected that drop down to let me switch between th

This sounds fine to me. I don't care if a clearly artificial voice doesn't sound human. Computers should have their own voice. I think the stated purpose is stupid, though. Gendered roles are good. They give people a purpose and m

There is with on-prem bitbucket (formerly Stash). Annoyingly there isn't on gitlab. It's such a pain for us that it's stopping us moving to gitlab.

Don't forget that the bitbucket you use at work (the on-prem one) is a completely different product to the one that runs on bitbucket.com. The on-prem one used to be called Stash but Atlassian in their infinite wisdom decided that havi

I have a PhD and completely agree with you. I did a PhD because back then working in software wasn't attractive to me (open source was not normal and Linux was seen as this weird geek think). But it set my career back a good few years

Software patents, yes. They never should have happened. Stallman was right etc. Other patents have very different behaviour and consequences. One of the worst things about "IP" law is that it causes people to bundle together vastl

One thing is just the significantly higher latency on consumer/business Internet connections. ISPs all optimised for bandwidth, not latency. They don't market latency. This is thanks to things like packet interleaving. Back in the

This title really grinds my gears. It has traffic, it just has no cars or no congestion. No traffic would indicate a place without roads at all.

Sorry to inform you but big entities already control this space and they are doing their best now to destroy cash so that they control 100%.

I can think of lots of things which are perfectly edible and harmless. Cooking isn't about making things edible, though, it's about making them nice.

It amazes me how many people just don't grasp the "distributed" part of git. No repository is special and it's trivially easy to make a new one somewhere.

You can disable automatic garbage collection if you want to. You could also have "versioned branches", but you'd have to do it yourself, using either branches or tags. Tagging the head of a branch just before you rebase would

Try, it's wonderful. The best. I write C and Python for a living.

Not necessarily. Like anything it could be good or bad in certain situations. I interpret it as meaning the person will be driven to do what's right according to logic and merit as opposed to politics. It's another way of saying t

The jvm has also had an immense amount of work done on its jit. One oft cited problem is its boot time, but other than that, its clojurescript really faster?

It's sad how far down you have to go to find the truth in these comments, even if it's only for a moment while the drones downvote it out of visibility.

All these kinds of studies just expect me to believe that the result is a good thing. Girls want to become pilots? Why is that good? Do we have a shortage of pilots? Would having a female pilot improve your flying experience? How about maki

What barriers are there? Everyone has access to computers and all of our software is out there on github etc. Women have more opportunities to learn to program than men do. They just don't want to. They don't understand it and don

People: do whatever you want to do this summer. There are virtually zero barriers to entry for programming today. They've been minimal for a good twenty years now as it is.
