This. There is no need to introduce a new concept like "commit groups" to permeate through everything. Just use merges and display them nicely. The problem is getting all the visualization tools on the same page. Bazaar got this r

Treat "carbon budget" as a natural resource and you've invented a carbon tax. Georgism just makes so much sense because if "mother nature" (or "natural capital", if you want to sound less hippie) is not ch

So one person could have such outsized effect on a community through the market forces he created. What if this force could be used for good? Is there a way I could write my will to convince a large number of people to solve climate change,

Australian here. Firstly, ranked choice voting is so much better than first-past-the-post and you should do it. But since you asked, Australia has seen one problem in recent years. But this is a problem specific to the conditions we have

Everything you said makes a lot of sense. But how do we stop monopolistic behaviour?

Ok so you're saying once in a blue moon when a test fails, having small tests will save you an hour. And that's worth the extra time you spend every day writing and rewriting them?

OOP is not much more than single-dispatch runtime polymorphism. The benefit of `data.sort()` is you could write that in a function that accepts a `data` that could be an array, a vector, a linked list, etc... anything that implements the &q

Love it. It feels like a simulation of many-worlds quantum mechanics. Whenever there's no clear next move, the board is in a quantum superposition. The waveform partially collapses whenever there's a definite choice, but I genera

So the theory is that this is part of Google's evil plan to make it impossible to tell the difference between an AMP page and the real page because the next step is to remove the URL bar. Given that this change makes it plainly obvious
