Nice to see ignore-revs getting some love :) I originally wrote it because I wanted to do a mass-refactoring to llvm-project to change its weird naming convention and "it will mess up git blame" was an objection that was raised. G

Yes it is new. The WHO only changed their guidance about a year ago [1]. Still, as far as I know the evidence is only associational. From the paper the article links to: "Potential for reverse causality cannot be eliminated". [1]

I agree with you but also: I gave my young daughter her own Android phone last week. Google Family Link is fantastic. It prevents her from using a web browser or any other things I don't want her to do. All she can do is message people

I was expecting its Java based nature to be a problem but in practise found bazelisk to be remarkably self contained and fast. Bazel has issues but Java isn't one of them.

I've helped compile guidance on inclusive language for my company. Whoever came up with this list has scored an own-goal against people who genuinely seek to make their communities more inclusive. There are words like "slave&quot

Computing is full of metaphors like "kill". My 7 year old niece looked over my shoulder as I was writing this and said "kill!?" with a look of disgust! Disgust! I suspect that this reaction is typical of many females get

Good list, but the closest thing to a mass shooting after 1996 is a familicide with 7 killed [1]. It doesn't really compare to the Port Arthur massacre. [1] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osmington_shooting

Thank you Team17 for giving me my break into software. I was/am a massive introvert and had failed many interviews because I was so awkward to talk to. At Team17 the interviewer just talked at me for an hour while I listened and that

https://www.syntevo.com/smartgit/ It's the most similar I've found to TortoiseHg which is the standard, and excellent, Mercurial GUI. (TortoiseGit does not live up to the family name)

Thanks for the links. My point was that studies wouldn't invalidate mattlondon's observation that cyclists more often break laws that affect pedestrians. The studies you referenced do seem refute his claim "cyclists - as a ge

Which studies? You say "the rules" - I suspect it varies a lot by rule. Speeding? Yep, drivers are going to slip above the limit unless they're very careful, whereas you have to be a very capable athlete to do that as a cycli
