yep, that was so annoying to hear him say that. grrrr.

Exactly why we changed it to natural stone at the last minute. Otherwise Dekton seemed pretty awesome. But we needed something literally indestructible, even if its thicker than Dekton ;)

Yeah its annoying. I need to pay for thinking, but I can't see it :/

Can attest to that. My wife always complains how big phones don't fit well in her shorts. But when I remind her of that when she is buying a new phone, she goes "Yeah well its annoying, but videos are nicer on a bigger screen".

Oh well :)

Yeah which is why its imperative that you _never_ connect to the Internet.

> Corporations lobby the government to implement laws that seem to hurt them but in actuality create an uneven playing field where marketshare becomes available due to the higher implementation cost

(nit: I assume you meant "marketshare becomes unavailable")

So you mean that regulations that are created based on lobbying by corporations help them become monopolies? Sure, that makes sense. But thats different from a blanket "Regulations create monopolies".

> I feel like other commenters are being obtuse on purpose and avoid the point?

nah, people are just built differently. Not everyone gets frustrated with "learning to remember", and then some do. Both are valid. The people who seem to be obtuse to you are in the first group, myself included. I didn't instantly catch the fact that instead of `svn commit` I have to now do `git add`, `git commit` and `git push`. But, and this is the key difference, when I forgot I just checked my bash history to recall the sequence. It doesn't bother me because I know either of two things will happen:

A. Over months and years, you then understand how things work and its second nature.

OR B. The tool was just a one-off and you won't use it after some time, so it doesn't matter you won't recall the steps.

Its the same with any professional tool, really - even outside software (think carpentry, for example).

> The point was that this bothered me when I used git for the very first time

and that is fine. From your original comment, you "just" wanted to save things and got confused why you had to `add`, `commit` and `push`. Its just that you didn't know that git isn't a word processor that gives you a way to save your work - you've done that already when you saved the file with your editor.

When I came to git, I was also confused why commit and push are different steps - so much work, I thought. Until one day it finally hit - wait, this lets me keep "saving" my work locally until I'm ready to upload it - which is when I push.

or, if you are replaying a single-player game that you saved+loaded (i.e. the replay only worked if the full game happened in one go without any loads).

Well thats good then, it means that they'll always need the likes of Scotty, LaForge, Torres and O'Brien ;)

> plenty of projects changed licenses lol.

They usually did that with approval from existing license holders (except when they didn't, those were the bad cases for sure).

> that it would be "simpler" to just... not do what I asked

That sounds too close to what I feel on some days xD

That and PROGRA~1 brings back memories.
