Doing evil things under the guise of good intentions (with reasons that appear valid on the surface) has always been the playbook. All you're doing is excusing it - let's not. If this was genuinely about security and UX then they

But then rather than leaving a non-blocking review, why not leave a blocking review and approve it as soon as the author responds with a link to the ticket or adds it to TODO.md? If it's important enough to be tracked then I'd wan

Sure, what I'm trying to say is that you need to design a process which ensures that these non-blocking review comments get organized properly, and enforce it . If you need the author to add your comments to TODO.md then that should o

Yes, your opinion. I run it in production and everything I've built with it has been rock solid (aside from my own bugs). I haven't touched a few of my projects in a few years and they work fine, but if I wanted to update them to

What's the point of leaving a review comment then?

Yes, October 7th was a terrorist attack - so what? Israel's actions before October 7th were also terrorism, and their actions after October 7th have been many orders of magnitude worse than terrorism. "Palestine doesn't get w

How do you organize that information so that you can actually follow up on it later? Writing a non-blocking review feels a bit like writing to /dev/null. Good to get it out of my system but not much else.

I meant distribution. Our electrical bill roughly consists of: energy production (per kWh) and distribution fee (per kWh). When you're using energy you accumulated through net metering, the "energy production" portion is free

You can't store energy year-round. I explained the situation in more detail in a sibling comment but the tl;dr is that people expected to run net-metering households expected to run their brand new heat pumps full tilt in the winter fo

What kind of argument is that? I don't think there are any world regions where goods and services appear out of thin air, so how exactly does a society that operates in this way survive and prosper? Do you think every bullshit, non-pro

I'm going to be the last person to defend capitalism as a way of organizing labor, but I think that a capitalist system where every company is actively producing something valuable is preferable to the capitalist system we have today.

That's the expected outcome when companies stop creating value.

It would be helpful to provide the rated thermal power of your heat pump. You might need a 3kW heat pump while they need a 16kW one.

Circular logic. What do you think "discipline" is? It's just a word people use to describe people with strong rational, goal-oriented behavior, with ability to follow through over long periods of time. This is also called &qu
