In what situations does this solve a problem?

In our projects we only enable squash merge in GitHub and the PRs can have any commits you want. The squashed commit includes link to PR, and PR has detailed summary (which wouldn’t be practical in the commit message).

Yes.

The following goes a long way:

    setopt PROMPT_SUBST
    HISTFILE=~/.zsh_history
    HISTSIZE=100000
    SAVEHIST=100000
    PROMPT='%B%(?..%F{red}%?%f )%F{blue}%~ %F{green}%#%f%b '
    RPROMPT='%B%F{red}$(git branch --show-current 2> /dev/null)%f%b'
And if you want autosuggestions:

    brew install zsh-autosuggestions
Then add the following to your ~/.zshrc:

    source /opt/homebrew/share/zsh-autosuggestions/zsh-autosuggestions.zsh

It's ridiculous. If we measured all past without nuance and with the fleeting standards of some people of today, everything would be abhorrent. I'm sad to see this way of thinking permeate so deep in our culture.

And some gay men.

If straight guys talked seriously about astrology they'd immediately get clowned on.

What should an open-minded nonbeliever do to maximize the chance of seeing what's behind the curtain and find the peace you describe?

Life is absurd. Why anything exists at all is absurd. So absurd in fact I find it unconvincing that life is nothing but a large deterministic automaton without initial cause. Maybe religions are a coping mechanism for deluded people, but I hope they point to some deeper truths that we may never fully grasp.

In any case, pain and other conscious beings are as real as it gets, so no matter how brief one lifetime is, you can have a real impact by making it better for those around you.

Yet, as expected, when threatened to take their online “authority” away so many Reddit mods buckled and opened the subreddits in a hearbeat.

I don’t use Reddit much anymore, but I liked the official app. Curious what’s considered bad about it?

I low-key like some dress codes, as it gives me an incentive to dress well without looking like a dork, and that I can brush off as "oh it's just the company rules".

How do you prevent the straps and padding from getting nasty with sweat?

This always surprises me.

How come there are seemingly zero tests for what’s essentially critical infrastructure?

How do you make sure things keep working? How do you prevent regressions as team members change and tribal knowledge and intuition is lost? How do you ensure all future humans working on the project can make meaningful changes with confidence?
