At the beginning of the pandemic, Italy was the butt of the joke until everyone else got into the fun.

I think the difference is that they expect to not break tests most of the time. So most of the time this just saves time.

It’s like when you merge a documentation PR while the tests are still running: You’re pretty sure that the tests won’t break. With this solution however you’ll still be pinged if they do break, later.

I disagree on GitHub Desktop.

The whole point of the UI is so that your workflow is simplified without having to understand the exact inner workings of it all.

GHDesktop’s simplicity means that most of time I don’t have to call 4 commands to just check out a new repository or PR because one click runs all those 4 commands and more.

As simple as it is, lately I rarely have to use the CLI (which however I still use because I rebase and fixup)

The fact that “takes you away from the terminology” sounds like people complaining that Windows 95 users don’t know what MKDIR means: That’s the whole point of UIs.

This metric is hilarious and perfect.

Technically it’s a family business that I grew up into and I ended up being a developer because at 14 I made the restaurant’s website with Macromedia Fireworks and Dreamweaver.

I don't think the story ends here.

If the tests are the issue, they can just send another DMCA specific to those pages.

Either way, I think in the US anyone who has the most time and money wins, so… good luck with SLAPP.

Bad for so many reasons (including abuse of GitHub issues, spam, and the ability to change the URL the short link points to)

If you want your own private shortener, I have a better idea:

Use GitHub Pages and create a `/1/index.html` (where 1 is the short link name) and add a “refresh” meta tag in it. Completely static and no build/JS necessary.

This could be opened up to others by combining it with issues and GitHub Actions, but who wants that?

Another better idea for a private URL shortener is hardcoding a list of URLs in a CloudFlare Worker. Much faster and with real 301 redirects.

That’s the issue. Linux runs everywhere and is not a consumer product, that’s why I exclude it.

Until you can build your own general-purpose PC and can decide to make it ARM, it will not be considered an equivalent option, it will just be another tablet, “chromebook” or “board for hackers”

Restaurant owner in Italy here: We usually don’t offer pizza at lunchtime because it takes time and wood to fire up the oven and keep it at temperature. Low request volume means it’s not worth it, at least for small pizza places.

If you want pizza for lunch you head to a bakery or “bar” and they have squares (not “slices”) ready for you to pick up.

Is there anyone shipping an ARM motherboard and ARM chip? I think the "openness" is also defined by what the market offers. All I see are non-extendable notebooks.

Also until you can run non-linux "desktop software" on one, it will always feel like a "tablet"

To be fair, this isn't their first shot at ARM processors, they've been at it for longer than a decade (Apple A4 was launched in early 2010)

The AMD64 "emulation" on the other hand is brand new.

They were included up to a certain resolution and duration, if I remember correctly, which covers most videos shot by the average person.

I have trouble handling others’ mistakes if I’ve corrected them before, they acknowledged the mistake, but they keep doing them.

What am I supposed to do with people who won’t learn from their mistakes (in the workplace)?

I’m directly affected by them as they increase my workload, so I can’t just ignore them.

Envy.

I wish I could just drop that kind of money on what is essentially a piece of art.

You sit on the couch every day, with other people. It’s very useful.

This, not so much. Visually it’s not far from a framed newspaper and its utility is limited.

It… looks cool and I wish I could afford it though.
