"Alphabetical privilege", nice. As someone who's surname starts with AB I would also call it "alphabetical curse". E.g. back when I was young when teachers would describe what to do then often would call each pupil

I wouldn't but age in there. Not for PII reasons but I doubt I would remember to update it every year... My own website I changed to just say what decade my age is to give me some leeway. Good idea though will change mine now. The prof

I loved my Amiga 500. All my friends at the time also had one. And then later on my Amiga 1200 with an actual hard drive. With the then excellent Amiga Workbench. Whilst I tinkered with Basic on C64 and the 500 it was with EasyAmos on the 1

Since I often play with razors by rebasing, resetting, cherry picking, etc locally - I created a `git tmp` alias so I can play without fear of needing to go reflog diving again. The `tmp` command creates a commit of all changes, branches it
