The commit it reverted has a high probability of also being generated with an LLM, though without disclosing that in the commit message.

Amusingly, the only DCFCs near me that charge by time and not kwh are run by utilities.

That PR was apparently accepted by the operator, not by the bot. Kind of weird.

Current branch without bloat is to cat .git/HEAD, and if that didn't exist, run git symbolic-ref HEAD. The first is faster and works in the common case where you're in the top of a git repo. In either case, run it through ${branch##*/} to strip down to just the current branch.

I have used this for a long time, never understood how people would put all of git in between them and the next prompt.

The command is `bts` in devscripts. I wrote it in 2001.

The best way to do this is to design something that is not appealing for those people to use, but is appealing for the people you want to support to use.

It's worth noting that a new installation of Debian will still display the same Eastern, Central, Mountain, Pacific menu to the user as shown in the screenshot. It just maps those to the non-deprecated names now.

You are confusing Russ Allbery with me, while at the same time making it sound like I have a problem with systemd, which is not the case. Russ remains a debian developer.

NEWS.Debian entries are displayed by apt-listchanges in a pager by default when running apt upgrade, as well as sent by email.

I have driven 20 thousand EV miles in the past year, with 50% of my charging being at public chargers (and 50% at home). I have never needed to wait in line, and have never needed to interact with anyone regarding charging.

A common misconception. git has always used binary deltas for pack files. Consider that git tree objects are themselves not text files, and git needs efficiently store slightly modified versions of the same tree.

This reminds of of a web page that did this for Ithaca NY circa 1995. The page was a static hardcoded shade of grey.

Steve Langasek decided to work on this problem in the last few years of his life and was a significant driver of progress on it. He will be missed, and I'll always think of him when I see a 64 bit time_t.

Hybrids have a smaller battery, so C rate limits maximum regen. For example, a prius can regen at 2 kw, while a model 3 can regen at 76+ kw.
