One of the nice things about jujutsu related to this is that when you update a branch, it rebases other branches started off of that branch. I often switch to jj if I want to split my work for easy reviewing, and it works great colocated wi

I haven’t been using Emacs for a long time now, but isn’t the Emacs way better? With undo tree you don’t lose any history, but the same is true for what Emacs does by default and it is much easier to navigate the history, since every change

I tried this with VSCodium, but it doesn't work. The recommended extensions are not in open-vsx marketplace. I installed the foam extension from the VSIX file, and it asks to reload VSCodium but I don't see it in my installed exte

I agree with the first part, but not with the second part. I believe equating John's behaviour to a chef who has told a customer off is just as distant as mine. If I was looking exact equivalent, I would just send the same link to the

How? Really? Ask that to a child beaten up by their parents in the street. I am sure that child won't make the same mistake again. I am not interested about if Linus is right or wrong, many other people have done that already. I am mor

They are public. When you create an AWS account, you will have a default VPC (this wasn't the case with the classic EC2), and when launching an instance, if you don't specify anything else, the instance you launch will be in the d

"Non-nullable Types" This is the first filter I check when I am deciding to learn a programming language these days. Almost all real world code I saw have had random null checks everywhere.

It puts zeros to unused bytes in the destination. Here's a note from its man page: Some programmers consider strncpy() to be inefficient and error prone. If the programmer knows (i.e., includes code to test!) that the size of dest i

Not directly related, but there's one tweet I like: "No no no no. The voice of newbies is one of your biggest assets. Why don't they understand? What is the confusion?" John Resig https://twitter.com/jere

I haven't read 'Code' yet, but I think starting from NAND gates is right; it has to stop at some level. I feel CMOS, MOSFETs, semiconductor physics.. are all interesting topics, but this book is already too broad.
