For some reason I first read the title as “journalists take to archiving their own hands” and thought this was some morbid kind of protest.

Industry is like a triangle and if you move towards one corner you have to move away from another:

Java and JavaScript are like car and carpet because despite the beginning of the names matching they serve different purposes. In the early web days Java applets were a thing and it failed which is why a new language was needed. It’s not a secret that there was pressure to make Javascript look like Java, that’s just not the point of the figure of speech.

I popped the keys off my Topre with a keycap puller and rearranged them. Both the Backspace and Caps Lock function as a backspace, but I couldn’t find a keycap labeled “Backspace” that physically fit in the Caps Lock key’s place so that particular label is deceiving.

Upvoted for the concise summary.

Threads integrating with Mastodon is bad news. Flipboard integrating with Mastodon? Interesting I guess? Hampers Meta’s 4E strategy I suppose.

What is it you need that a centralized version control system offers that a distributed version control system doesn’t? For instance you could use git or pijul for a monorepo.

I did speak for myself. I said “In my opinion”.

Working in a busy codebase for a long time when I have to spend time a non-trivial amount of time triaging through tickets I can’t reproduce that is taking time away from legitimate bug and request tickets I can be working on. It can seriously lead to burnout.

In my opinion that sounds like a plus. People that are too lazy to register an account to put in a code merge request or report a bug aren’t going to be writing quality code or quality bug reports.

It’s all good just make sure you have an up-to-date ublock-based extension: https://reddit.com/r/uBlockOrigin/comments/17j6ygs/youtube_antiadblock_and_ads_october_29_2023_mega/

As of writing this Adblock Plus isn’t working with Youtube but no reason you should be using that over ublock origin anyways.

And the site’s dark mode is fantastic…

The blog and videos are great. His constant stream of thoughts from Mastodon might be too much Amos content in my life though.

Providing a name is optional so for many users its just an email address.

Where on the radar dashboard can I see that exact graph?

peer-to-peer, as opposed to?

I have a similar ruleset regarding ratio but mentally I think about time spent seeding. Active torrents I can reach well over my minimum 2.0 ratio by leaving it seeding overnight. Meanwhile, I had a torrent one time for open source software that was very active but had a very large proportion of leechers to seeders. I left it seeding for several months uploading several terabytes in the process. My seed ratio was in the several hundreds but I was happy to take keep the CDN costs off the site.

While I find it annoying that I can’t rename files and think that could have easily been avoided in the original bittorrent design, it’s not too inconvenient to just copy the files and leave the originals in a “seed” folder.
