   Yeah permissions are relatively straightforward on iOS, and tracking w/o user consent is very much involved nowadays, whether in an app or on the web, and probably more difficult in an app.

   This is on android. iOS has usually less privacy issues.

   alt-arrow But it’s not what I mean. When navigating using the arrows it just breaks the flow because suddenly you “don’t move anymore.” Hard to explain, but it is real.

   I know the shortcuts. (It’s not ctrl-arrows; ctrl-arrows is to switch Space.) There are still situations where it’s annoying, mostly when navigating the code using the arrow, moving from one location to another using the arrows, I won’t add

   This is getting less and less true though. Also WiFi permission is not a thing on iOS.

   I do the exact opposite. I’ll use the app even if accessing the website is more convenient. Usually the app experience is more polished, and denying any permission is trivial. Also, I have a system-wide app/tracking blocker.

   I have a feeling jj fans won’t agree with that one. I submitted this because I have recently (re-)discovered fossil and wanted to try it. I discovered they do not have implemented rebase on purpose (though we can still edit commit message

   Navigation is still more painful with spaces than with tabs.

    Until you are visually deficient. Then it matters a lot. Accessibility is not a joke.

    I have used tabs with a three-space width since forever, and it is indeed the better spacing.

    And yet, navigating the code, you still have to got left-left-left-left to pass the indentation and it’s stupid. Tabs are here, everybody should use them, they are the logical better option, everybody knows it.

    I don’t like go, but at least they got that right!

    I use tab at three. And will do to the day I die.

    > it's like saying "Humans are bad at multitasking - they should never switch to another branch until the current feature is done” Neither. Rebasing is an atomic task, kinda like a commit.

    > This is a consequence of rebases being a special, modal state that requires dedicated focus to work through to resolution. Believe it or not: no. Humans are notoriously bad at multitasking, so it makes sense to actually finish a task

    I do this in Swift, using swift-sh[1]. Works well, but the compilation of the dependencies (first run of the script) can be a bit long. A problem which uv (Python) probably won’t have… [1] https://github.com/xcode-actions&#x

    I think you communicated well, probably I did not. > suspending the rebase and going to do something else This is what I find to be weird, personally. When doing a rebase, there’s no way I want to do something else in the middle of

    Modal states are actually good IMHO.

    Of course! But why even bother when everything I have to do I can do with git without any problems?

    I was so disappointed a few days ago. CHIPS is exactly what I need for my project. Safari introduced support for CHIPS in 18.4! And then removed it in 18.5… with no visibility on when they’ll add it back (they have the intention to, apparen

    I agree you cannot go full libertarian either. But I’m not trusting a company with the ethics of OpenAI to do the right thing. Nor any company for that matter…

    Why? Installing python and php can be done in 2 seconds with brew, and you have control over what you install instead of using whatever is in the system, with deprecated versions, etc. It is actually much better now. System tool should be

    I cannot emphasize how much I agree with this comment. Thank you for writing it, I would never have had written it as well.

    Yes, but not in privacy, so it does not matter at all (to me).

    Swift has interoperability with Java (early stages, but works).
