Just my personal 2c. I've long been a big fan of Sidebery for vertical tab management, so I was expecting something closer to that than what I got. The vertical tab view does work, although it seems pretty basic. E.g. there's no w

Thank you for linking the SE thread! So this is the reason I've been having so much trouble with my Bt devices recently. I've used Linux as my daily for years but have also started dual-booting Windows as of a few weeks ago, and I

I think I'd argue with both points actually. Though it also depends on the nature of work that you do. I imagine good intuition with linear algebra is crucial for novel work. If you're implementing a model off an arxiv paper maybe

This seems to be a more hands-on linear algebra intro, starting with matrices and building up from there. Note I've not actually read the whole thing, just skimmed it. Something similar worth looking at is: https://ocw.mit.e

Provided rewording, reordering and squashing (or fixing up, same thing really) are all you need I think you could argue this is true. Trying to do anything else tends to be a bit of a pain. On another note, is it possible not to lose the co

I've not used GitUp so I'm not sure how much help this will be to you since I can't objectively compare the two. As an example, let's say I want to remove some changes from a commit (and potentially move those into one o

Personally I am squarely in the rebase team although I'm not completely anti-merge. I find the interactive rebase to be so useful that I pretty much never rebase non-interactively. I wonder if part of the reason the merge flow is more

I agree. I think that most of the time highly specialized topics have a lot of subtle context required. You either communicate all of that, or use jargon to get around it. In some cases I think it's possible to do this and satisfy both

Fair enough. Though I don't understand how that relates to your original point. For what it's worth I can _kinda_ understand the point that Guido's making here.

Does it, though? This is the first time I'm hearing about this. In fact I'd say that Python is known for the complete opposite (e.g. wrt lambdas, map, filter etc)

I really like the article and the presentation! With that in mind, is this style of presentation (i.e. different elements jumping out or moving into focus as you scroll down the page) easily doable OOTB with any JS libs? Or is this pretty m

Fair point. However, being programmable was one of the requirements listed in the article. Was the Antikythera mechanism actually programmable or was its calculation set in stone through its physical design?
