I think you'll find your workflow is still required. `git history split` is really only focused on turning a commit into 2 commits, so if you wanted multiple, you would need to run the command multiple times. Add to that, it's pat

I'd love to, but I keep/cut my grass on the longer side and my dog was eating so much of the clippings (and then throwing it up) when I mulched that I chose to compost far away from where she could get it.

I have a small yard and I'm not optimizing for the fewest moves, I'm optimizing for both the longest continuous lines (because I think they look nicest) and the shortest distance to carry the clippings at the end. I have a differe

I can’t tell if this is sarcasm. If not, I doubt some typesetter in the 19th century (or earlier) was so drunk with power when setting out the lead type to make the 3-em dash. EDIT: Additionally, unicode primarily exists to encode the typog

My issue with DDG AI result is that sometimes I would accidentally hit the "more" button to expand the result and it would begin a painfully slow crawl of text that pushed the results I was actually interested in further and furth

A decade ago I was working with an intern who wasn’t allowed access to push to any branch. As I wanted him to get experience with the development cycle, I set up a bare repo in a shared Dropbox folder and had him push code there. Aside from

I apologize for taking the conversation off course as it wasn’t my intention, and I also thank you for providing examples of Dijkstra‘a writing. In asking for a recommendation, I was admitting a great blind spot, so you needn’t be breathles

APL is the only language I've ever dreamt about writing (as in: I could see the characters); I'd dreamt about programming in the past, but those dreams were usually what I would categorized as a nightmare—desperately trying to fix

Excited for the new release! Though looks like `git history split` won't yet replace my typical workflow: $ git rebase -i // with e on commit in question $ git reset HEAD~ $ git add -p As I can't edit th

I’m not really understanding the notion that these people are so sincere. Perhaps we have different definitions of sincerity. To my eye, the entire fascination of unsafely injecting peptides in a desire to change your being is largely the o

I typically prefix my commit messages with the ticket number to make it easier to spot the commits to drop.

You head to the farthest branch in the chain, fetch the latest main, and run `git rebase --update-refs main` (I prefer interactive mode myself) and then force push all of the branches from start to the end. 1: https://git-scm.com

Is that by convention or is there a good reason that it’s so CPU bound? I don’t have experience with CAD, so I’m not sure if it’s due to entrenched solutions or something else.

I suppose I’m pointing it out to highlight the trade offs with any of these solutions. What is unsaid is that we need to sequester CO2 for hundreds of years—often far beyond the lifespan of the trees. Trees are short term storage, and somet

One little appreciated fact is that trees also respirate CO2 when they are cracking their stored sugars produced via photosynthesis. So they don’t sequester all of the CO2 that they consume.

The main commercial use is enhanced oil recovery—shooting it into old wells to extract more oil (super ironic if captured from the air). One application I think is neat is that it’s a pretty robust refrigerant in a heat pump application.

One neat thing about the referenced chapter on macros from Practical Common Lisp is that it's chapters 7 and 8 of a 30+ chapter book. You're only learning about variables in the chapter before and then macros. I like to think ab
