So I’m normally a command line fan and have used git there. But I’m also using sublimerge and honestly I find it fantastic for untangling a bunch of changes that need to be in several commits; being able to quickly scroll through all the changed files, expand & collapse the diffs, select files, hunks, and lines directly in the gui for staging, etc. I can’t see that being any faster / easier on the command line.

Poll reveals surprising number of editors don’t know how to use the word ‘amount’.

More like a UOML

ZX Spectrum. That is all.

User Gary Koepnick asked the AI which person spreads the most information on Twitter/X—and the service did not hesitate in pointing a finger at its creator.

What’s with those model numbers?

People on Reddit. We’re the people off Reddit :)

I’m not convinced a parent who didn’t notice the pram rolling towards a moving train, and who hadn’t strapped the child in, is going to notice an extra sign… Hopefully this lucky escape will be enough of a wake-up call :/.

It’s like the number of kids who get left in the back of cars (most dangerously in hot climates) led to dashboard warnings to check the rear seats. These work for a week or so, and then also just become wallpaper.

I hope they’ve been taken outside the environment now.

Was just going to submit a scrolling issue, but the GitHub link above isn’t working for me—the other links work fine but not that one :(.

Shame they don’t have anything to like, you know, build them a home out of.

I write minified JavaScript and the AI pretty-prints it with 8-space indentation. That’s well over 25% by weight.

It’s Canadian is what it is. Explains all.

Finally a gif with sound (in my head).

No, tiny bits of hidden software. It’s not a very efficient way of distributing code, but it was fun.

I’m a software engineer and I built a trebuchet during lockdown to launch Easter eggs at the neighbours’ gardens since we weren’t allowed to go see them.

I wandered in here from computer science, and I’m going back to solving parallel cache coherency for a bit of light relief.

And likely Crowdstrike will have their own insurance. At the end of the day, it’s just gamblers sitting at the table, moving the chips around.

Big employer in the uk back in the day would fine your boss if you parked outside the lines. People were pretty attentive to how they parked…
