Can't imagine a worse alternative. The filesystem api is really good. For example, I use the google office suite entirely offline through the official extension that uses the filesystem api. You …

The sibling comment mentions rerere. But you can solve this even without that. I assume you mean develop has a few extra commits from remote meaning feature branch diverges a few commits earlier. Let&…

Why won't this work to achieve the exact same thing? # on branch `feature` # code code code # whoops! Test missing git add wip/ changes/ && git commit -m lol git che…

When I used to maintain a discord music bot, it used to stream from YouTube. For Spotify urls to work though, I had to get YouTube search to work reliably. One trick which I found worked well was incl…

Love XFCE, everything about it.

This argument always bothered me. For me, the ethos of open source and free software is altruism. The whole point is that the developers make the software to help users. There's nothing gained b…

Yeah, you have to set provenance flag to true. - uses: JS-DevTools/npm-publish@v2 with: token: ${{ secrets.NPM_TOKEN }} access: public provenance: true For example…

NPM has support for github CI provenance. So you can verify that the package on npm was built on the github actions of the repo mentioned in npm.

Aah, nice! I read that note about it being in contrib. Never bothered to find out whether contrib is distributed with the built git package or not.

> Poor Python DX is a skill issue Oh yes, the language whose ecosystem only hears about backwards compatibility in their own death marches? Not their problem. It's the developers, it's _t…

Yes, that is a great resource. And if you're looking for a connection to ML, the search term is "DP-SGD".

Haha obj[JSON.stringify(x)] = y * Ducks *

A 0.2mm difference is so vastly different from the analogy he made to using it as a measurement of volume. Hopefully you're putting this forward as an interesting factoid and did not mean it as a…

https://gist.github.com/romainl/a3ddb1d08764b93183260f8cdf0f... This script in your path means that after you say pull code and have merge conflicts, "git jump" will op…

Nice! Let me try this out

And then bickering over territory within themselves, and following it up by celebrating an independence day! Only a white man

Alibaba and AliExpress are banned in india.

Yes, this.

Yeah, my guess is that it'll fall on either side of the same go/c vs c++/rust "simple rules with more implicit rules in your head" vs "complex tool with less in your head…

It'll be nice if you could make it level 2 headers. Reason: if we want to make it html to display as a webpage, we won't end up with multiple H1s, and we can have a H1 for like the name of t…

Latex workshop gives an identical experience with latex

You're only hurting yourself by looking up a dictionary for these sorts of things. Words have varying contextual meaning that can range from the dictionary definition to it's polar opposite.…

I hate XDG stuff so much. I just wish every app had their own folder in which they can put whatever they want. If home directory clutter is the issue, then just ~/crap/.{app1,..n} can be sta…

Comparing the innovations of Bell Labs with..... _Protobuf_ of all things makes me gag.

Go maps randomize intentionally the ordering of the keys

Your effort did not go unnoticed :-)

Yeah, where I worked we rarely used channels directly in business logic. Most of our code looked like "do 5 different time consuming operations, some of them optional i.e can fail" and then …

Karpathy talks about this in https://karpathy.medium.com/software-2-0-a64152b37c35

These arguments (for any language) are pretty lacking. That you can do it isn't important - the majority culture is the deciding factor - since every internet resource, every package, every suppo…
