Use the interactive rebase. It shows a list of commits which you can reorder, squash, remove or edit. Reordering is pretty powerful. If you made a mistake, commit the fix, then move it to the commit where you introduced the mistake, and squ

LLMs are too dumb to be useful, but smart enough to be destructive. You don't need to be able to generate correct regexes to create a blogspam article about regexes that will go to the top of the search results.

I'm still running an i5-2500k (overclocked to 4.3GHz) in my main PC. Only decided to replace it now when I bought the new Call of Duty and realized it can't run it smoothly. It's _fine_ for everything else. My Ryzen 5800X arr

Yeah. 15 years ago going to Auchan, Carrefour, Tesco or Real was all the rage. Right now Tesco and Real are dead, and everyone just walks to the nearest Lidl/Aldi/Biedronka I do miss it. Tesco Value Beer was great.

Chrome was much much better than Firefox at the time, mainly because of V8. Firefox only got it's first JIT 9 months after Chrome. On my 2003 PC the difference was very noticeable. I switched instantly.
