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 with a clone created with git.

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 is part of a linear history and undos and redos also get added to it.

This is why I believe GPL v3 is important.

This this this. It was the first thing I missed in Vim when I switched. You also don't lose in Vim, as it keeps it the history as a tree, but it is harder to navigate the tree than Emacs' linear history.

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 extensions after.

I would love to help to get it working for VSCodium if it doesn't depend on anything VSCode specific.

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 same email.

I am using empathy here. I don't know you guys, you may feel ok if you get shouted when you do wrong when contributing to a project, but I would feel bad, and as a human, I don't think my feelings are not important. If it is coming from an important person like Linus Torvalds, this would hurt even more, and really I don't see anything disrespectful to anyone in John's email.

And to the people who actually help you.

Not only your users are important, people who help you are also important.

> If you ask nicely and people don't do it, or keep ignoring it then you up the tone

I am sure it can be done much better with a little effort. Being smart, or being someone who has done something important shouldn't exempt you from being nice to other people.

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 more interested the way that he speaks. I am gonna go ahead and say it. The way he speaks in this email is ugly, wrong, and should never be encouraged. The language we use is important, even though sometimes it takes more effort, love takes effort, good things take effort, and good communication takes effort too. We should at least try to be nice. Otherwise life would be kak.

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 default VPC.

Do you really think that it is that simple?
