Is there an alternative to list the dependencies, that doesn't have this risk?

The browser is highly security critical, because of its exposure to the internet, as well as, because of the high-value assets it stores, security tokens, session keys, passwords, browser history, etc. Therefore, I prefer tools that don&#x2

Actually, systemd is also better for users that want to highly specialize their systems. It is only bad for people who love debugging race-conditions between shell scripts that run very early in their boot process.

Why is that a browser extension instead of a separate application? How does it extend the browsing experience?

Why did the Github support add an ssh key, though?

DDD usually stands for domain-driven design.[0] [0]: Or in earlier times for the Data-Display Debugger.

Rich didn't say it, if I remember correctly. But there are problems where a more general algorithm is simpler than a more specific straight-forward algorithm. Usually because you change the way you model the problem. Otherwise, I have

This doesn't sound like a simple solution from your fellow devs. It appears to have been an easy solution. If the distinction isn't familiar to you, there is a great talk of Rich Hickey [0], that explains that distinction and some

I use the commit history every time a I open file I haven't worked on for a while. Just seeing the output of git annotate in the border of Intellij gives me a sense how old code is, what changed together with what and whom to ask in ca

This web page cheat.sh manages to minimize contrast even in a terminal. Well done, you've brought the accessibility nightmares of the modern web to the terminals of the world.

submodule and subtree are difficult concepts that look easy at a first glance. That is not the fault of the implementation.

Git's UI is not meant as an abstraction at all. It is a set of tools to work on the underlying model. And the underlying model is actually quite elegant and understandable. I'd take that anytime over a leaky abstraction like subve

Yes, I am referring to exchanging sets of patches with or without tools like quilt. But I don't see a confusion. These stacked diffs seem to be a recreation of the advantages of patchsets on top of the limitting PR model of GitHub.

This seems like a fancy name for an ages old practice. Isn't that what Linux was doing even before git was developed?
