@anon_opin it’s maybe realistic depending on how difficult interplanetary travel is. Entire planets with a monoculture are just the natural extension of people wanting to live in a bubble of people who think the same as them, although it does raise some moral issues around any children brought up in those cultures believing it’s the only option.
It’s 10:26am and already I’m incandescently angry at the general state of the world. Becoming hermit is ever more appealing.
Shortly after this photo was taken what I can only describe as a pack of 6 very friendly dogs out for a walk came for a swim. I am now quite wet and muddy.
@an0key I mean the alternative is Siri reading you all 600 pages of the TuneIn terms and conditions so maybe this is a small mercy.
@dave not really, “a branch” isn’t really an atomic thing in either git or jj’s model of the world, it’s just a pointer to a specific commit.
@dave I’m the only person I know using it. Sadly git, and in particular GitHub’s opinionated approach to using git, has captured everyone. Thankfully jj works fine with that, and also makes the very tedious “open fifteen stacked PRs instead of using commits like a sane person” approach less painful than usual.
@dave yeah, I was similarly hesitant but haven’t had any problems in practice. I think on one occasion I had to drop down to git’s oplog to unstick myself (and that may have been a lack of jj understanding at the time).
@dave as one example it has a trivial to use jj split command, which provides an interactive editor to select which chunks you want in which commit, then provides you with two clean commits.
@dave give Jujutsu a look, it’s built on top of git’s data store (so is compatible with anything git) but the support for moving changes between branches is so much nicer to use.
@fesshole another case of men not talking to their partners here. You could alternatively say “watch what you like, I’m going to go play guitar for a bit”.
Well this is grim. Love to live in a police state.

@petergleick @tdp_org in a few decades I think there’ll be things emerging that make the tobacco companies look like they had our best interests at heart.
@dave I’m genuinely not sure what this offers above the current Siri/Google Assistant/Alexa integrations, and the example doesn’t help much. Looks to do the same thing but *really verbosely*. I don’t want my home assistant to be an obsequious servant, I just want it to toggle an internal switch.
@andrew god, you’ve worked for more than one CEO who’s been caught going to a Coldplay concert?
New Strange New Worlds *and* Donkey Kong Bananza? Truly fate has smiled upon me today.
Shout out to balena.io for a) making almost all their code open source b) having a really solid product and c) their support team not blacklisting me for endlessly opening tickets that can be summarised as “I know your product isn’t meant to do this, but are there any workarounds I can use to make it do it anyway”
@gsuberland to some degree I think that’s a choice people make. It is possible to go fully local only, so many people’s idea of a “smart” home is that the light switch is now buried in three different mobile apps rather than on the wall. That’s not an improvement, and if I were in that situation I’d rip it all out.
@anon_opin how dare people enjoy things. Adult life should be a relentless grind towards retirement, followed by being bitter that you’re too old to enjoy anything now.
@mike_bowler I sometimes wonder on a global scale just how much waste and general crap service is being generated by metrics intended to do the opposite. Support calls hung up causing the customer to requeue at 59 minutes hold time. Split payments like you say. People pushed to use a crappy mobile app when buying coffee. Hospital staff spending 90 minutes filling in paperwork for a 60 minute consultation. It’s mind boggling.
@Edent vscode has a plugin for this which works really well, it’s called Live Share, and is basically what you describe, with some nice pairing specific stuff like being able to follow another user’s cursor or navigate around independently.
I mentioned I did something 25 years ago, and then it sunk in that I wasn’t *that* young even then. Is this what getting old feels like?
