Please do yourself a favor and volunteer at a voting location. These are essentially solved issues, and you seem completely unaware of that fact.

No, the amount of water conserved through these measures was absolutely meaningless even at scale. You are talking about a fraction of a fraction of a percent of use.

You and I have vastly different definitions of the word “easily”.

https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/mkfifo.1.html Pretty simple. This creates a named pipe. One end of a shell command redirects to it, one end redirects from it. rm when finished.

Because nobody cares about the dev process. The number of times I’ve looked back in the history and seen a branch with a series of twenty commits labeled “fix thing”, “oops”, “typo”, “remove thing I tried that didn’t work”, or just a chain

The comments sections in git posts vs. jj posts are always hysterical to me. If there’s a jj post on HN, people come out of the woodworks to say that git is easy and it’s crazy to suggest that anyone finds it difficult or confusing. Also pe

Markdown has been extremely popular since far before GitHub existed.

I feel like iron in the blood gets a lot of airtime, but literally all the carbon in our bodies is star stuff too. As is the oxygen making up the water. And almost everything else.

No, it is a knee-jerk response that invariably assumes that a belief that golang’s specific approach is bad is equivalent to believing that errors are of secondary importance, and assumes that anyone who disagrees with the golang approach

It’s still an issue because the type system doesn’t actually help you out when you want to handle all the possible types of error.

This is something gophers constantly repeat, but it is entirely a self-inflicted issue that other languages more modern than C don’t actually struggle with. When in Rust, it is explicitly clear when and where errors can come up, and what ty

by stouset 10mo ago
Handling errors doesn’t have to be noisy. Handling errors the way golang requires is . When it takes five times as long to figure out how a function actually works (not only due to error handling, to be fair), the language has a problem.

Go has already more or less won its target market. Rust proponents are still working to convince C and C++ holdouts, who are understandably skeptical given the past several decades of promised replacements that never materialized.

Low DPI fonts and 1080p resolution are orthogonal concerns. Pixel count and pixel density are not the same thing.

Please stop justifying geriatric presidents suffering clear cognitive decline, regardless of which side of the aisle they’re on. The president needs to be clear-headed and cogent as much of the time as is reasonable. Biden is and was far be

Wouldn’t it be better to try to kill those payment schemes directly?

Perhaps reserve your mind being blown for situations where the GP hasn’t confused pixel count and pixel density. Zed “supports” 1080p monitors just fine. Supports is in quotes because it doesn’t need to do anything nor care at all about the

1080p is neither high nor low DPI (dots per inch ). DPI requires knowing the physical size of a screen, not simply the number of pixels.

I think the question being asked is, if you’re already using mise (which has a built-in task runner) what is the advantage of going with the other one?
