The fact that all git operations are local (will except push, pull, fetch) and thus mistakes do not enter the (remote) repo so often, that’s really a great advantage. But what is the problem regarding merges?

The same thing could happen with any other form of concurrency. In this case you could wrap the two statements in a transaction with the appropriate isolation level. Not sure what it is called — read consistent? Snapshot?

The ls command does this: if output is to a tty then it prints in columns. Many commands add color when the output is a tty. I don’t think it would be a big issue.

Falling back in fall means that there is more light in the morning and less in the afternoon, the opposite of what you were saying.

Right now I use Hammerspoon for macOS. I used to use Phoenix. On Windows there was AutoHotkey. On X11 I think the twm family allows you to move Windows to specific positions and sizes. There was also sawfish. Maybe wmctrl is a relatively mo

I understand that people say you can replace foo < bar with <bar foo but I've never been able to get myself to do this.

Very interesting. I can change a breakpoint to not break, but log, instead. This should be quite interesting. Also the option to "go back in time" by dropping a frame from the callstack is very useful. This way, it's poss

At my job, we do Java, and it would be wonderful to have something like this. I litter System.err.println around the code then run it so I can better understand the behavior, so the idea of doing the equivalent in a recording would be awes

Is "middle name" a separate concept in Sweden? In Germany, there is no middle name, but people can have more than one first name. So, Heinrich August Schmidt has a last name / family name (Schmidt) and two first names /

I think the argument for the American style is aesthetics. I don't like it, but I can understand that there are people who prefer what looks better. TFA did not address this at all, which is a pity.

Often, you might want to run servers. If they are JIT compiled, then during warm-up they will be slow(er), and later they will be fast(er). But usually you don't restart servers that often, so they will spend most of their time in &q

You said that arm has been promising but not delivering. But now Apple is selling the M1 which runs Intel software faster than the previous Intel Mac did. Even though it had to be emulated. So it’s pretty clear that arm can provide high per

I have yet to see a debugger that counts the times a breakpoint is hit. But maybe rr and it’s ilk do. I find it really valuable that I can just read a text file to spot some patterns even if I don’t know beforehand which patterns I’m lookin

I'm trying to get myself to use debuggers more often, but I find that just modifying the code to print stuff, then inspecting the result, allows me to better figure out what went wrong. Say I have a small sample data set where I expec

I don't understand how they could classify CSV in the "less harmful" column -- its rules are insanely complex. Also, UTF-32 seems way simpler conceptually than UTF-8, so I don't understand how UTF-8 ended up "less h

I guess two meters is sufficient when you drive a walking pace, but any faster than that two meters will be too little. You say that this was in India, and I'm guessing two meters is way too much in a traffic jam :-)

Tramp offers different "connection methods" with different characteristics. For example, the scp connection method uses scp to copy files to/from the remote machine, and this implies a new ssh connection each time. But the s

If ssm-session-manager-plugin gives you a shell, then it should not be too hard to extend Tramp to use it directly. (I know nothing about ssm-session-manager-plugin.) Tramp does not need scp to transfer files, it can just as easily multipl

The id cards are shown to help prevent China from disappearing these people. So YT taking the videos down is the opposite of what YT claims to want.
