After a class on data structures and algorithms, a white board interview asking you to invert a binary tree is very different from the same interview when you apply for a job.

I live in a small city and work in a nearby larger city.° The distance is 45km and it takes me about 45mins to drive the car, door to door. Public transport is pretty good on this connection, but overall it takes me 75-90 mins, because I n

What's also useful is to set "commit.verbose" to true; then you get the diff in your editor when composing the commit message. This allows reviewing the diff and you can abort the commit if it's wrong.

I've started using lazygit and/or tig, these present a UI in the terminal and easily allow staging files. Lazygit also easily allows staging parts of a file; not quite sure about tig.

One of the programs is needed only because caps lock was rebound at the OS level. But Karabiner Elements can do the control or escape trick without that remapping. I do the window switching with Hammerspoon and a prefix key: after typing al

The Dutch one is explained in the post as “women who are f cking”, but the German one is not spelled out quite so clearly. It’s “panties for f cking”. Does that help?

Sven also has a command for reverting a commit, ie committing the inverse of a previous commit.

My wfh environment is a desk in a corner of the bedroom, an enclosed area about 150cm x 150cm, with walls on two sides and shelves on the other two, with two little gaps for the light. It's awesome. It feels so comfy. It's got t

May no programming language ever introduce “foo” or “bar” keywords, lest mayhem be upon us.

I once looked at 30 lines of code, analyzed them and found out that they always computed true, never false. My background knowledge told me that Zeit was the correct value. But I did not dare to eliminate it in the main branch, only in a re

Ah, yes. I was having a discussion with BSD folks about how I was missing the equivalent of "service reload sendmail", and they replied that I have no business managing my own mail server if I don't know I should send SIGHUP

I used to love tiling. But then I started to use apps that needed more than half of the screen: web browser, IDE. Now I put my IDE full screen and the browser about the top right 70% of the screen so that the console output in the IDE peeks

Isn’t there an option to support spaces by LRU? It defaults to on. I turned it off ages ago. But I also stopped using spaced some time after that so perhaps the option was removed…

Thank you. I completely missed that.

If you think that the words "white supremacy" in that commit message allude to Strunk and White (maybe in a tongue-in-cheek way), then how does "people of color" fit into this?

Another example: If you know how to pronounce "in" and "famous", you still don't know how to pronounce "infamous".

The switcheroo happens in every three-digit group: When you read the number 123,123,123 out loud, you say "drei(3)-und-zwanzig(20)" three times. (I've used comma as the thousand separator here.)

Very interesting. People are different. While I don't like this auto-complete popups, I do like the auto-pairing of quotes and parentheses and brackets of various kinds. Once you know that your editor does it, it's easy to pred

All these friendly gooey things want to help you by popping up this kind of stuff. But luckily, some of them let you turn it off. I've told IntelliJ and Eclipse and VSCode to please stop popping up suggestions, and let me type Ctrl+sp

It took me quite a while to figure out what was being migrated from which source to which target. I wish the article would have provided that context, not leaving me guessing. It seems to be about migrating existing applications to another

There are two German words that uppercase to the same: Masse (physical unit, measured in kg usually: mass) and Maße (plural of Maß: measurement). So downcasing MASSE either requires understanding the text or results in a superposition.

Besides syntax, the home lists quite a few other items: static type checking, meta programming, concurrency. I don't think it's fair to ask makers of a general programming language to specify what it's for. It's general

Very interesting. Thank you so much for teaching me. I guess it would be possible to create a git plugin that tracks such picked cherries and that provides changed merge and rebase commands. (The plugin would use the existing plumbing to

The very concept of the DAG makes it impossible to represent this situation. Am I overlooking something? On branch B, we have this chain: [x]-->[y]-->[z] And because x is a parent of y, if we record y as merged, then we also record x

Svn does do three-way merges, see the section "External diff" in the svn book. One thing I found in svn but couldn't find in git is merge tracking: you can merge individual commits and svn records which commits have been merg
