Not really. I'm not sure I want it to behave the way GP suggests, but I definitely want to have staging, and `git commit -a` is basically an equivalent of having no staging. The reasons for that are: 1. In the vast majority of cases th

I'm kinda surprised by the excitement it gets. I'm still looking for a compelling explanation, why I (or anyone else) should even bother? I am a git hater myself. I mean, git just sucks. It always did, and it always was much worse

Uh… what does it have to do with these "factorization diagrams"? Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't even see why are they "worth checking out". As far as I can see following your link, these are just arra

I don't get it. So, do all these clusters mean anything at all? It feels like that should be telling us something eerily important about numbers. Granted, I don't really understand UMAP, but still, if it's any good for dimens

Can you give an example of "arcane black magic heuristics"? I cannot imagine, what weird rules you could even come up with, aside from the normal "sensible" ones you already listed.

What are some best practices to deal with in on a PC? I mean, by default pretty much everything is closed and it's not like there is any "legitimate traffic" at all, but over time it still accumulates some open ports by runni

Yeah. Honestly, I guess I cannot speak as a Thunderbird calendar user anymore, but precisely for that reason: it sucked so much compared to ubiqotuos Google Calendar, that I somehow couldn't justify using it anymore. Then I stopped usi

That's just about "hiding" being a relative word. "ZIP thing" also can be considered hiding, if you are absolutely clueless. And if we speak about "forensics" — that toy implementation is about as much &qu

I don't like that opensource code is being used in a commercial product. I feel concerned about NNs learning about stuff they aren't really "supposed to" learn, because somebody published something by mistake a long time

True, and it isn't just hate for the sake of hate. I would like to have a device like that (not for meetings, god forbid, but I'd like to read without having to hold a book in by hands, or to watch a 360° 3D movie, you know), but

It actually does sound silly to me. I just don't understand what you mean. Not in general, but in this particular case. If I'm searching for "reverse a list in python" — rest assured, I do know how to reverse a list, m

You need a VERY good reason to use anything except PHP. Perhaps Rust. These technologies are good enough to get almost anything done these days.

Not sure how to evaluate that. Maybe it's kinda fun, but… I mean, generating crappy images from text isn't exactly new by now. It may be "an early version" (and this is exactly why I struggle to evaluate that — obviously

You don't really have to. It's just minification and stuff, just a build step, I suppose the owner could do that as well, if your contribution has any value, but you didn't do it properly. Do you know a better way to build&#x

Exactly. I never understood all these "I don't enable js" comments. You kinda usually don't need to disable js on sites that are usable without js. And if you feel the urge to disable it, it is most likely that without
