I worked on this for a couple years (have been much less active lately), surprised to see it on the front page of HN but happy to answer questions about it.

The shah has said publicly he wants to serve as a one year transitional leader followed by elections. Not sure what more one could ask for.

You're wrong I'm so many ways it's hard to know where to start, but one obvious one is that the teenager who was run over was not an anti-war protestor, he was protesting a potential change to exemption from military conscrip

I worked at Google for ten years (as an IC). Here's my personal perspective. Yes, of course, the individual employees know. But the decision making for these kinds of things is usually a full-time middle manager, who isn't decid

I don't think I'm missing the point. Getting the job is real-world validation that cannot be explained by LLM sycophancy-inspired delusions.

jj lets you do this with changes that are related.

I have more or less been using the squash workflow, but nevertheless, remembering to do `jj new` before doing anything else is a challenge. Might just get used to it with more time.
