Is there any reason besides merge commits ending up in history to not do this with merges instead? ie merge main into feature-1, then feature-1 into feature-2. Sounds like using --update-refs would let you do all that in a single operation,

Nice web ui aside, if I'm not mistaken youtube-dl already supports this kind of usage. You can `youtube-dl --download-archive archive.txt https://youtu.be/your-playlist ` and it'll keep track in the archive.txt of

I appreciate the "just the current day" angle, but would gently remind about timezones. A 24-hour rotation isn't super friendly towards people who are online at the edges of that window. You might consider keeping a viewable

Been using a Gergo for well over a year now. I think I might own the first one that was made with the low-profile Kailh Choc switches. I can't imagine going back to anything else. The low profile, combined with custom key layout (workm

Not sure what nootropicat is on about. The language itself is not coupled to the PKI. The PKI ("azimuth") is implemented as a contract on Ethereum. The OS ("arvo"), implemented in the language ("hoon"), has a n

Having this on Urbit seems like a great way to start an Oekaki community.

Urbit does not run on or via blockchain. Its PKI lives on a blockchain. Urbit itself doesn't care about how packets get from A to B. You run it on a machine you own. Social communications yes, especially on smaller/more "loca

Full disclaimer: I recently started working for Urbit, but have been involved in its community for about a year and a half now. It pains me to see people paint the project and its people in this light. I don't know if I'm taking t

The reference docs honestly aren't the best place to start when learning Hoon, as backwards as that may sound. I've found the tutorial docs[0] to be much more helpful when first exploring Urbit, and there's a fair amount of g

Hi, member of the Urbit team here! There was definitely a feeling of "holy shit they're doing our thing!" going around, but we can't be entirely sure if they got the idea from Urbit specifically. More likely, they aggreg

You can only search data if you can read it, so it needs to be unencrypted. With end-to-end, this means only the data you have locally, so you can only do local searches. In the Slack example, (I assume) Slack uses their servers to pre-fetc
