There are several projects at work, any of which should land if they are successful.

The ancestor stated, all this futzing with commit history is a waste of time. I tend to agree.

I never understood the fascination with everything being forced white. The gray widgets and white content were perfect for drawing the eye to the important parts, ... the content. In addition, the "classic" desktop of XP time was

I use gimp for this. One layer the imported pdf, the next with my scanned signature from ... 1998? Position, scale to 1024 or so, export grayscale jpg with enough compression to create artifacts, done. The poorer quality the better, tend

In XP you had to revert to classic desktop to turn off the Fisher-Price.

Ok, that's one strategy. However, we put that information in our issue tracker, docs, and source code comments, where more people can reach them more easily. Commit msg is PROJ-1234, which gets automatically gets linked to issue with

Not in gitlab at least. Click on squash and you see nothing but the total of the branch difference, the merge req title, and a few lines of boilerplate it adds. About as easy as it gets. As titles are issue numbers changes are documented

Agreed, although I don't know what "paying a utility bill" means in this context.

Yep, though it isn't a problem I have any longer, using primarily wifi. Flash drive writing speeds are my biggest bottleneck, wish someone would tackle that at a reasonable cost.

Software is a mess. Hardware now collecting dust.

Not really a need for big external drives any longer. Terabyte thumb drives are under $40 on Amazon and can be put on a hub or otherwise tucked away. SD card is a more expensive option but gets out of the way more effectively.

The big problem with the pinephone is not the hardware, unfortunately.

Interesting that their terms of service specifically prohibit children under 13, but a lot of people still insist it is good for them and ignore it.

Micro is just about is good, with a CUA interface, though is lacking the menu and dialogs. Also, freedos has a similar editor that has a few new features.

Went to many arcades in the early eighties, smoking was never allowed. However, it was in California which was a pioneer in that area.

As developers know, pointers require you to work with a variable that points to another variable. It is one more level of indirection, and one needs to keep additional information in short-term memory to understand the code. For whatever

In the "old days" there was a dividing line we noticed in class. If the student could understand pointers they would succeed, if not they wouldn't. It was quite accurate for the time. Today things are higher level so I thin

Widget layouts systems are older than the web. I would say "much older", but after thirty years the much is not very large in comparison any longer.
