>Even if it was the town square many actual town squares require adults to accompany minors. Sure enough if you had a bunch of unattended 12 year olds hanging out the cops would be called and parents asked to be parents. What? Where is t

The problem is without a control you can't tell the difference between whatever you are describing and the placebo effect.

You're not alone. The "music" combined with the visual sensory deprevation can be a trip. Some machines are completely featureless on the inside and I've found it can feel like I'm floating in a bit open space, not

Great article! While I haven't done anything as involved I have found using technology to track health issues to be empowering myself. I'm curious about your thoughts on insulin pumps. I'm not very familiar but I know a few p

Is that _really_ that big of a problem? As a non-American, I did not do my undergrad at a school as prestigious as the top ones in the USA. And yet, I am very happy with both my education and my career. (Probably more so than the average h

How does reformatting trash the history? It's one extra commit.. I guess if it splits or combines lines that could cause some noise if you really want the history of a single line... But that happens all the time, and I don't see

Average price of a vehicle is not a good metric for this. If a bunch of Americans finance $150k trucks (and they do!), that inflates the average, but it's not relevant. What's relevant is the lowest price for the economy/comp

I was curious so I looked it up. The 2024 Corolla starts at $21,900 in the US. The cheapest '24 I could find was the Nissan Versa at $16,390. Of course, neither of these are electric. But they are also well known makes in the American

At one point it definitely was helpful. I'm not going to claim it could make you fluent but I used it maybe 10 years ago to practice and I found it valuable. It had long form explanations of grammar, exercises that required you to list

What gave you the impression that I haven't heard of gitk?

I don't know how my comment was understood to mean that I am unfamiliar with git. My point was that those of us that use the git CLI have no issues seeing the rest of a commit message besides the first line, and in fact this is the def

> I can't imagine that all of your interactions with your codebase are via `git log` with no other flags. When did I say anything like that? My point is just that the `git log` command, by default, shows the full commit message. Th

by mb7733 3y ago
Well, `git` is still the primary way I interact with a git repository, and `git log` shows the entire commit message by default. So I don't run into this problem. If some "modern" git frontend is only capable of displaying th

Honestly, having lived in Vancouver as well as many cities that _do_ have highways running right through town, I didn't miss that in Vancouver at all. Traffic will suck both ways, and at least Vancouver avoids having ugly, loud highway

Like I said, it's got nothing to do with computers or AI. This point of view predates any kind of AI that would be capable of doing either. The analogy is as follows. Like with with leetcode & job interviews is as follows, to excel

No, that sort of thing has been said about math competitions for a long time. It's not a new argument put forward as something against AI. An analogy with software is that math competitions are like (very hard) leetcode. There was an a

Don't teams assign points to their own tickets? So how could one compare the points between teams?

I believe the whole language is "style insensitive" for variable names. So it's not just a feature of the stdlib.

While I agree changing branches is the most common use-case for git checkout, it's far from the only "normal" one. The form that updates files to match revisions is actually mentioned first in the man page: DESCRIPTION

Very interesting ideas -- all the way the small practical stuff like being able to expose symbols only for testing without making them public, up to the more ambitious stuff about validation and constraint checking. As a broad research lang
