Where I got my BA in philosophy the department head was all about Husserl.
Another philosophy professor from a neighboring college told a number of us about Dark Star. In hindsight I do wonder if it was because of the phenomenology reference, or because they were philosophers who took in 60s/70s/... scifi/speculative fiction.
I think Sears around '04-06 (?) was the last time I saw one of those used. I think I bought a dehumidifier or air purifier.
When they started rolling out credit and debit cards without the raised numbers I thought fondly of those and how they were definitely done for now.
(We haven't watched an episode in many months, but referenced it when my son was taking forever to brush his teeth and I got frustrated.)
FAANGMULA in the above case.

Can't recall the source I learned from anymore, but this looks pretty good: https://www.gitkraken.com/learn/git/git-worktree
I have two projects where I've got a directory that I do most of my work out of and another directory (worktree) focused on syncing from remote/assisting others on the team.
If you don't need the extras worktree gives you, clone another copy?
BGG does have a very clear bias against traditional games (see Clue, Monopoly, etcetera), due to it's roots, but that's changed a bit as board games have become big again.
Hopefully you work with people that follow that as well.
I can still remember a more senior coworker copying a directory from a network share (Ctrl + C), deleting the directory, and then trying to paste it somewhere else.
I didn't speak up (he also rarely touched the mouse so flew through it), so we both got a chuckle when he realized his mistake and pinged network folks for a backup from tape.
It happens. The real world is messy. Can always learn something new. Can always do something you know not to do.
Upgrades have been painless. Doesn't tax the server.
Was using Gitea when that fork happened and didn't see a reason to migrate. Looked very much like poor communication on the behalf of Gitea causing a misunderstanding.
Monica was a moderator on 6 different sites and was a highly decorated moderator. She had contributed frequently to the growth of the entire Stack Exchange community and was appointed as a moderator on MSE in recognition of that. She was fired after she requested clarifications on a new policy and a change in the CoC. Here is her version of the story: Stack Overflow Inc., sinat chinam, and the goat for Azazel .
A lot of moderators then resigned due to the way Stack Exchange treated her. Firing mods and forced relicensing: is Stack Exchange still interested in cooperating with the community?. Stack Exchange later spoke about her in newspapers. The Director and CTO of Stack Exchange later posted public apologies, but didn't do anything to follow up their apologies. Finally after taking the legal route (Stack Overflow is doing me ongoing harm; it's time to fix it!), Monica was able to sign off on an agreement (Update: an agreement with Monica Cellio), which wasn't that helpful.

You'll still see usernames that reference Monica, usually on meta SE.
I need to go in and fix broken links, but I tracked 5+ years of Netflix mailings (dropped DVDs into my sixth year).
What I rented, when I got it and shipped it back, when they received and mailed another, and what mailer I got (local address or further away).

It was definitely interesting to have a record of how turnaround changed over the course of the month).
The more time that passes, the less real it is, the less people that can talk about being there, the easier it is to deny.
Maybe it's different if it's a disaster from something like a meteor. Slightly harder to deny that it happened, but certainly not hard to question and doubt the long term impacts.
'Sure, it had x and y immediate impact, but even though there's general consensus among experts that we should do z, let's go slow/let's not be too hasty/no one could be sure/what do they actually know/but there's these small group of opposing experts that I like better.'
The Watchmen has two examples (comic and movie) that I thought might work, if they were really pulled off.
However, even then I agree with the other comments currently posted that there would still be deniers, who would ultimately win.
Maybe humanity could pull it off, but if they could I'm not sure we'd be able to sustain it.
We're good at short term disasters, but not at preventing them, or following through with the lessons we've learned.

We also just got Dice Kingdoms of Valeria and it's making me rethink dismissing roll and write games.

Tyrants of the Underdark is also fantastic (still waiting for the fan printing of the fan expansions, though).
But if I'm looking for a tool someone else built, .NET options are usually pretty slim.
As a .NET guy, I've actually started looking for tools built in Go since I know they'll be easy to run across the platforms I use, without extra dependencies.
Has anyone had good success with any particular resources?
Remote: Yes, 100% ideal.
Willing to relocate: Not at this time.
Technologies (primary): .NET (C#), HTML, CSS/Sass, JavaScript/TypeScript, T-SQL, Git, IIS, Angular. Always interested in learning new technologies or revisiting those I've used in the past.

Hello HN, I'm James. I get the most joy out of helping other people accomplish their goals or doing more with their time. I've found I do this best when I'm part of a small team, with diverse skills and ideas. (I like working with designers and editors.)
My first love was with developing for the web (and what I'd love to have as a primary focus again), but sometimes you just need a console application, or to spend some time researching existing tools.
I believe that the more you understand the tools and environments you're using, the more capable you are of solving problems now and in the future.
I believe in open communication, mentoring, the right amount of documentation, and enhancements over time.
If you think we might be a match, and/or have any questions, happy to chat at the email listed above. Thanks for your time. :)
I've used mdBook exclusively since moving off GitBook in 2019 when they dropped their OS/local project and highly recommend it for how easy it is to setup and use.
I believe it shows as a different line item in their revenue dashboard.

Edit:
From a creator at https://www.reddit.com/r/youtube/comments/xv8k6n/i_have_yout... (so take it as you will):
> Income from premium is distributed by your watchtime. YouTube takes a portion of your monthly fee and divides it between the videos you watched. You watch only a single creator, that creator will get all of it. You watch only few videos, those videos will earn a larger chunk each. You watch hundreds of videos, each video will only earn a small amount. You pay a lot for premium, more will be paid to creators. You use a vpn to buy premium from india or so, only a fraction of that payment will be distributed accordingly.
> If you are not using premium creators get paid from advertisements that are actually watched. So either you have to watch the full advertisement, if it is shorter than 30 seconds, or at least 30 seconds from a longer advertisement, before you skip it. Skipping an advertisement after 5 - 29 seconds means no payout to the creator.
I definitely think our facility was just loading things on the truck as they came in at first (especially since things would be on the truck, be near our house, and then go back to the facility, only to be sent back out later).
So I think your second paragraph is correct.
We had this issue in our area when they first started rolling out their delivery, but they've since gotten much better about grouping packages to the same address, no matter who it's addressed to.
(Single family home, in the city.)
Perhaps, like everything else, dependent upon the facility that's used?
Example of a public project with negative project storage: https://gitlab.com/strivinglife/book-raspberry-pi
Repo 130.82 MB Artifacts 12.74 MB Wiki 51.20 KiB Everything else 0 bytes.
Been like this for at least a couple weeks.
This one is public, but I have others that are private with negative values.
You've neglected to state what commit messages do matter, unless you think none do.
In my experience, commit messages only don't matter if the code is never used beyond the first creation.
Once you have to maintain the code, commit messages absolutely matter.
Does it need to include the granular details mentioned in the article? No. But commit messages help determine what commits should be reviewed during maintenance (including adding new functionality).
(I also experienced a touch of cosmic fear while reading the article, thinking about someone who might rebase or squash every commit, leaving only one commit for an entire repo.)
HTML Goodies (and the DHTML/JS sister site, I forget the branding), also mentioned, was a great next step to expand my knowledge.
But initially AOL actually had some good HTML learning resources. All caps for the tags. I opted for black backgrounds and white or blue text ... :) Developed in Notepad initially.
Somewhere I think I still have printed off copies of some of those old resources I printed so I could look at them offline.
