An alternative is to use Git's blame.ignoreRevsFile[1] option to ignore specific commits when calculating blames. The downside is that although you can save the list of commits in the repo, you cannot do the same for the config setting

I see a bit of straw man here -- thorough frameworks are often liked _because_ they're thorough. Simple.css looks fantastic and I'll reach for it next time I make a simple personal site, but for a professional website with a hundr

Now that I'm on meds, I only get a day like this maybe once a month. If someone is kind enough to want to help, I definitely ask they first and foremost try not to be ambiguous, or at least to be patient with me when I rapid-fire quest

I was diagnosed over a year ago and have yet to "come out" for fear of the exact things the author describes ("but you don't seem autistic", "yeah we're all a little like that", etc.). It's hard

You lost me at ncurses. IMO this idea works because the task is so simple no one would bat an eye at the thought of doing it. All it takes is one person to question why we're not using <technology> instead, or why we're not

Can you explain why the Kelly criterion wouldn't have you bet 0 every time? The chance of winning a round of rock-paper-scissors when throwing a random symbol seems to be 50% (if ties cause re-dos), so wouldn't that work out to 50
