In what situations does this solve a problem?

In our projects we only enable squash merge in GitHub and the PRs can have any commits you want. The squashed commit includes link to PR, and PR has detailed summary (which wouldn’t be practical in the commit message).

Yes.

The following goes a long way:

    setopt PROMPT_SUBST
    HISTFILE=~/.zsh_history
    HISTSIZE=100000
    SAVEHIST=100000
    PROMPT='%B%(?..%F{red}%?%f )%F{blue}%~ %F{green}%#%f%b '
    RPROMPT='%B%F{red}$(git branch --show-current 2> /dev/null)%f%b'

And if you want autosuggestions:

    brew install zsh-autosuggestions

Then add the following to your ~/.zshrc:

    source /opt/homebrew/share/zsh-autosuggestions/zsh-autosuggestions.zsh

It's ridiculous. If we measured all past without nuance and with the fleeting standards of some people of today, everything would be abhorrent. I'm sad to see this way of thinking permeate so deep in our culture.

And some gay men.

If straight guys talked seriously about astrology they'd immediately get clowned on.

What should an open-minded nonbeliever do to maximize the chance of seeing what's behind the curtain and find the peace you describe?

Life is absurd. Why anything exists at all is absurd. So absurd in fact I find it unconvincing that life is nothing but a large deterministic automaton without initial cause. Maybe religions are a coping mechanism for deluded people, but I hope they point to some deeper truths that we may never fully grasp.

In any case, pain and other conscious beings are as real as it gets, so no matter how brief one lifetime is, you can have a real impact by making it better for those around you.

Yet, as expected, when threatened to take their online “authority” away so many Reddit mods buckled and opened the subreddits in a hearbeat.

I don’t use Reddit much anymore, but I liked the official app. Curious what’s considered bad about it?

I low-key like some dress codes, as it gives me an incentive to dress well without looking like a dork, and that I can brush off as "oh it's just the company rules".

How do you prevent the straps and padding from getting nasty with sweat?

The silhouette of the white part with the envelope is in the shape of a chat bubble.

This always surprises me.

How come there are seemingly zero tests for what’s essentially critical infrastructure?

How do you make sure things keep working? How do you prevent regressions as team members change and tribal knowledge and intuition is lost? How do you ensure all future humans working on the project can make meaningful changes with confidence?

No tests?

I have to admit I never got the “99% similar” and “octopi are so smart” thing.

May sound like an ignorant meme, but if they’re really so smart and similar, why can’t they build cities or create cultures or do anything better than just survive?

Why is capitalization inconsistent?

Some use sentence case, some title case.

The channel owner responded:

> We didn't know that he doesn't have proper windows, we were shocked as well. It was our first time meeting him and he doesn't have any mobile connection. It's very difficult to reach his place, it took us 3 hours by car and 1 hour by snowmobile (which got broken while we were filming). Thank you for your concern, we will replace his windows soon.

What would be the “me” if I were to clone myself 1:1? Would there be two “me”s? Or a the same old “me”, a single consciousness but two bodies?

If something's too easy to misuse, it's bad design.

All these evolutionary arguments (e.g. “head of penis is shaped as such to clean out semen of competitors”) all sound conveniently convincing, but I’m curious if there’s any data validating them?

It’s easy to shoehorn any number of plausible theories, but how do we know one evolutionary theory is the correct one?

For me honestly it's one of the (many) things I dislike the most about Ruby.

Sure, I understand the "elegant" aspect, two symbols are shortened to one (although I'd argue that's not that important when it comes to clarity and legibility).

But every time I read "unless" in code it's quite jarring. I have to consciously translate it to "if not", and even then seeing the "unless" keeps tripping me off, perhaps because it's awkward in English to start a sentence out of the blue with "unless".

If used sarcastically this can be great. If anyone uses it genuinely in a serious setting I would feel abused.

Consistency is great, but why exactly is consistency helpful in this case?

Seems surprisingly defensive to not be in favor of a small change that eliminates an entire category of confusion and improves accessibility.

> The top down, hard ass culture of Elon etc, basically flips the work to being extrinsically motivated based on fear.

Why not both? You can have a hard-ass culture of relentless insistence on highest standards and a good ambiance within the team.

...ok?

UX testing should be done in a stressful and chaotic environment. Good UX becomes invisible, bad UX becomes abundantly obvious.

It's definitely real! At least as far as my N=1 dataset is concerned. I dislike having to pick a seat when they're all kind of the same. Just tell me where to go, I have to make enough decisions at other times in life.
