What isn't what you're saying? I feel like you didn't read my comment, because I covered that. Foreign money is a serious problem, indeed. It's not the same problem, though. Hammer/nail, baby/bathwater, etc.

It seems unfair that those who have more money may have more influence--and in a sense, it is. But as it is, you have the freedom to speak, to collaborate with others to speak, and to gather more resources to speak more effectively--and the

No, it doesn't. "No strong evidence" would convey the same meaning. In the same way, "Yes it is" doesn't convey the same meaning as "Yes it is?", because just like the presence or lack of the word &q

Since you're discarding feedback kind #2, and all of the potential users it represents, in favor of entertainment value, I'd say that you do think like that. ;) Comedians write lots of jokes, but when they stand up and tell th

Regarding CPS: I think that expecting users to write queries in CPS is going to be very limiting. It's missing a big opportunity to use simple funcall and/or pipeline syntax, with which many more users are familiar. Even among L

I love the idea of a Lispy version of jq, but as a Lisper, the examples feel bewildering to me. The fact that (elem) takes an optional second argument, whose default value is 'identity, seems familiar, but then I try to understand thi

Not all browsers, on all devices, make it trivial to set cookie permissions so flexibly. And, as I said, it's not just about cookies, but also about LocalStorage and such APIs--which, historically, if not presently, do not always beha

Another site that shows a completely blank page when first-party cookies are disabled. It seems like an epidemic lately. So much JS in the wild just stops cold when some cookie or LocalStorage permission isn't available, and that fail

I still see a blank greenish-gray page. It appears to be because the BODY element has a CSS rule setting "opacity: 0", which appears to be for the purpose of enabling a CSS transition to fade in the page on load. Not exactly mini

Sounds like you haven't used Magit very much. Browsing the manual for a few minutes, or looking at a screencast or YouTube video, would show you how much more Magit does than what you described. Regarding commit-patch specifically, it
