> To be replaced by others, whose options are to remain unemployed, hungry, and homeless, or to submit to low wages and shitty conditions.

It's true that bottom-rung Amazon workers are low-skilled and not in a very strong bargaining position. But they still need certain aptitudes, competencies and physical fitness levels to be able to carry out the work effectively, which means they will have options other than working for Amazon. Your claim is effectively that there is a limitless supply of people who are competent/able-bodied enough to do the job Amazon needs, but at the same time so desperate for any kind work that they will tolerate any level of mistreatment. This just doesn't hold water, and nobody in this thread has provided solid evidence for it. People just keep implying this is the case and assuming it to be self-evident.

> Two responses to this:

> 1. Will they? Why are they not intervening now?

Companies are subject to local, state and federal labor laws everywhere they operate, and governments, regulators and courts everywhere are perpetually looking at what needs to be done to bring about reasonable improvements in pay and conditions for workers. This article [1] describes changes in NY and California to bring about criminal prosecutions for wage theft. Criminal liability also applies in some places for workplace health and safety breaches. Could/should more be done? Sure. But your suggestion that companies like Amazon operate free of any regulatory oversight or consequence is false.

> 2. A fine is a price. If they save two million dollars, at the cost of a $200,000 fine, they just profited to the tune of $1.8 million dollars.

Can you cite an example of this with Amazon or a similarly large company? As far as I know this is false, when it comes to labor laws. Companies that continue to commit the same breaches face increasingly severe penalties, and in some cases the potential for criminal prosecution against the company operators.

> Their incentives are always about making money. If abusing their employees makes them money

You're trying to prove your point by looking at just one factor in isolation of all the others. Sure, companies exist to make money. But they need to think about legal issues, employee retention, brand/reputation/media coverage, company culture, management self-respect...

Your last sentence is just gross. It's fascinating when people need to resort to vile imagery to get their point across.

The ship will still likely be anchored for hull inspection, perhaps in Bitter Lake. That may take a couple of days at best, and an indefinite stranding if serious problems are discovered.

Also crew change is likely because of on-going investigations, and that will be tricky with the on-going mariner crunch. There's not a lot who are qualified to run a ULCV, especially one straight out of an accident.
Wow have you even watched RoboCop 2? That's a documentary on what would happen if the police went on strike. The unwashed masses are obviously a bunch of apes, unable to govern themselves
How is that different from Node.js which also runs in a single process? Or does Deno create per-request processes (or v8 "isolates" etc) like CGI does?
When doing this kind of in-work fixes, I use "add -p" to make an independent commit only of that specific change.

Later with "rebase -i" I move all such commits at the start of the branch, and in case deploy them with an earlier merge.
I'd guess figuring out where you can safely attach the tug boats, monitoring stability and stresses on the container ship and so on is non-trivial, too.

I don't think they had a previous sprint's velocity to base their estimates on; this was unprecedented.

I suggest you take your complaint to the English language office. In Dutch, that organization would be called "padvinders" (lit. pathfinders, i.e. trackers) which shows that the concept itself isn't gendered.
I agree it's a problem - but I don't think there is an easy solution nor that the article presents a solution.

The problem was just that I was distracted or forced to solve a different problem than I had planned. Making a plan doesn't change that. If anything, it leads to ending up with a planned commit message that is still unrelated to the changes (which seems worse than having no commit message at all)?
My first thought was 'oh no, not yet another git command!" but I get where the author is coming from.

However, the dangerous part is including a refactor in an unrelated change. Good luck backing that out if you need to.
Personally, when I'm in this situation I just park what was supposed to be doing and then do the refactor separately.

It helps reviewers and is more transparent.
Observation (please don't hate me):

Originally I am from Ohio and I've lived in SF for 12 years. I am not very religious. In college, I lived next door to a cult like "Young Life" Christian club.

I notice people with extreme left wing fervor in the Bay Area behave in a similar manner to the Young Life crew. My thesis is: Their political beliefs are an independent variable and are not important. Had they grown up in a red state, their personality type would have been selected for and they would have become religious young life members rather than left wing activists. People who are right wing in the bay area, have more in common with those who were not religious in the midwest, going against the grain of society.

In short politics has become a modern religion and is replacing religion. And your personality type is being selected for, in your proclivity to join a group; either religious or political.
At the risk of sounding very cold-hearted I am very happy to see this happening.

At its core, belief in a higher power is magical thinking.

Considering the problems we face as a species, we can no longer afford magical thinking.
it's not surprising given who the media works for. all those editors, pundits and talking heads don't pay themselves. and defying the dominant mediopolitical narrative is a good way to lose your job, even if you're right in the long run.
For me, and many I know, anti-religious sentiment is pretty simple. We just think it is science fiction, and thus not good to believe it is real. Even if its all very nice and friendly and reasonable fiction, it is better to understand it isn't real.
I hope the Ever Given doesn't run aground on the Maeslantkering when it arrives in Rotterdam!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maeslantkering

>The Maeslantkering ("Maeslant barrier" in Dutch) is a storm surge barrier on the Nieuwe Waterweg, in South Holland, Netherlands.[1] It was constructed from 1991 to 1997. Part of the Delta Works, the barriers are controlled by a supercomputer, and automatically close when Rotterdam (especially the Port of Rotterdam) is threatened by floods.

>Maeslantkering has two 210 meters long barrier gates, with two 237 meters long steel trusses holding them. When closed, the barrier will protect the entire width (360 meters) of the Nieuwe Waterweg, the main waterway of Port of Rotterdam. It is one of the largest moving structures on Earth, rivalling the Green Bank Telescope in the United States and the Bagger 288 excavator in Germany.

The Socratic Method is similar. But it differs because it is trying to expose a contradiction in thought about a particular subject through questions. Whereas you can trick others into critical thinking about a subject just by helping them think critically in general, and it can be done without the use of questions.

You should wear masks in public when you are vaccinated because while you're protected from severe symptoms, you can still carry the virus and transmit it to others.

> The ultra risk aversion is what many people are souring on, especially considering the risks are low to begin with for the vast majority.

Yea but...they are not low for a significant portion of the population, which should matter? And those people are affected when people don't wear masks because many of them are not able to completely isolate. I don't really understand this line of reasoning -- wearing a mask helps people, so why not do it? Is it really that debilitating? I don't like wearing a mask either but if wearing one helps, why not wear it?
Eph 22 Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord. 23 For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. 24 Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything.

34 Women[a] should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in submission, as the law says.

> I'm sure another gui would work well

I'm not, I've not seen anything else like magit's diff views: they provide a great overview of the entire state (of the working copy or staging area) and allow very fine and nonlinear staging/unstaging.

While technically `git add -p` provides the same capabilities, magit's allowance for jumping around and staging and unstaging (and reverting / killing) as you wish and go is a huge boon, it requires significantly less pre-planning and remembering that `git add -p`'s linear and blinkered (one hunk at a time) workflow

The only thing that I've not found perfect is reverting parts of an existing commit (e.g. re-reading your log you realise that you added debugging crap to a commit): magit will create a staged revert and an unstaged re-add, which is nice to move stuff out of a commit but a bit confusing for straight reverting it. And even that is still miles ahead of everything else I know of.

The only thing magit is lacking is fixing interactive rebases: it beats the pants off of doing interactive rebases manually, but i'd like it to compute "dependencies" between patches so it stops me from moving a patch above its dependency, or at least tells me beforehand (as that usually generates huge conflicts which would be better handled by not moving the patches that way because it's an error, or splitting the patch being moved beforehand).

The challenge wasn't the reasonable outrage over the Iraq war, it was the selective outrage. The earliest protests tended to be from folks who were silent during Clinton incursions. One could make worthy arguments that some wars are not outrageous while others are - however it may not hold up well when one considers how Bush's war became largely uninteresting (to protesters and to news orgs) when it transferred into Obama's hands. Code Pink (who has been wholly consistent) couldn't get the time of day after 1/20/2009.

To be clear, my assertion isn't intended to demonize the left but to highlight a general inconsistency.

Refined with age, my position this: By failing to hold reasonable PotUS accountable, we gift power to unreasonable ones. (ref: see FastTrack Authority or Record Number Of Whistleblowers Prosecuted For Espionage)
>I'm not convinced that authorities were lying about masks. The actual situation was kind of complex back then, and certainly prone to oversimplification, but that is still very different from actual deception.

Lots of videos that you can watch on youtube. Fauci and WHO later admitted that they lied because they wanted to reserve masks for hospital/emergency people.

It's not a question of whether or not they were lying. They admit they lied. That makes them liars and then all of their assertions after that date must be taken as probably a lie.

We then had '2 weeks lockdown' to flatten the curve. Which was a lie. We are over a year now.

Moreover, when Fauci and co switched tune and started saying everyone had to wear masks. They said it 'so that we can reopen.' Which was a lie. Everyone is wearing masks and lockdowns still happening.

https://www.who.int/news/item/20-01-2021-who-information-not...

Basically everyone was running PCR tests at 38 cycles. Fauci has come out and explained that 35 is the max. Anything over 35 is a worthless test that's a false positive.

Even more important: All those 'asymptomatic' carriers. Ya those are false positives. In fact at a minimum the worldwide numbers are inflated nearly 100% or more. https://www.uchealth.org/today/the-truth-about-asymptomatic-...

It's just another lie. Maybe there's another good reason to lie? Perhaps to stop spread you need false positives and not false negatives? I'm sure we all know about confidence levels. Perhaps the real reason is that they want to inflate numbers. If the numbers were 50-90% lower, could they justify lockdowns?

The problem with frequent and constant lying and getting caught. You become the boy who cried wolf.

What happens if a new virus starts spreading. Perhaps a far more deadly one. Are people going to believe the boy who cried wolf?
Especially considering if someone knows about a scheme that actually works (in the sense that it significantly beats the market), they would be using it quietly for themselves instead of sharing it with other people.
> Fixing a typo as you work on something else is not bad - that's called Boy Scouting[1] and it's totally acceptable to sprinkle small improvements/cleanups in a change.

Different people have different standards and opinions on what's acceptable. Personally, I'm in the camp of people that would hate to see an unrelated typo fix being included in the same commit as some other change. I strive for semantically meaningful commits, and prefer the people I work with to do the same. It's fine to make such fixes, but they should be in separate commits (though they can be in the same code review request). The pain point the author of the article mentioned is very real (needing to do `git add --patch`).

> Write your "plan" as the first commit in that branch. Then do your work, committing frequently, and when you're done and squashing your changes into a single commit for review you now have that first commit available and waiting.

There are often times when multiple end commits make sense. Squashing/rebasing down to essentials is fine, but that still may be more than just one commit on occasion.

Sometimes, "not recommended" is used as an euphemism for "bad for you". As in "Alcohol is generally not recommended for people who take certain prescription drugs." It doesn't exactly help that this is common in medical lingo.

> If the work is done I expect Rust to be faster than C and C++ for the same reason that C++ can sometimes be faster than C: a more advanced type system can allow better optimization in many cases.

Every now and then I check in on whether LLVM can deal with rustc spamming "noalias" on all references. You can find the latest change in [1]. While in theory this unlocks _a ton_ of optimizations, noalias is used very rarely in C/C++ code so these compiler passes are not exercised a lot by existing LLVM tests and/or not realized in full.

That's why you don't squash before merging. If you merge the original commits (and make a separate commit for the minor fix), you can revert the problematic commit without affecting the rest of the feature.

This in combination with a `git diff` in a split shell works very well for me. For adding changes, I often use `git add -p` - this also gives a nice opportunity to think about a change again. As a bonus, if I did not yet push, I can extend the commit (using --amend) or roll back to it when doing experimental changes. There is also the option to `git stash` some work away.
The messaging was "Masks Don't Work" and that the virus was not airborne. The extensive studies proving that those are both false did not exist, but it was heavily suspected. We were lied to is an oversimplification, but it's not even remotely wrong.
I've never needed to pre-write my commit message or felt that was an issue. However, I do think git could make it easier to context switch. It would be pretty neat if you could switch branches without losing your working changes - so they are there when you return. I understand git stash exists, but that is two extra steps, you have to give it a name, and then remember which stash contains what. It would be nice if you could just leave the working changes with the branch itself uncommitted.

> agile never became popular

I don't know, I think we did: what is called "agile" today is all of the exact same stuff that the agile manifesto was explicitly the opposite of. Agile became popular among developers, managers didn't really understand what it was, consultants rebranded it to be exactly what it was supposed to be a replacement for, managers were happy, and developers went back to being frustrated.
The idea of writing a commit message in advance is nice, and possibly helpful in focusing, but I don't understand the added value with respect to the issue stated.
Commit messages aren't the challenge, rather it is planning out what goes into a commit.

As many others have said there are already great UIs to help you manage these things retroactively, but there is probably no good substitute to properly planning your work and executing on that plan (if order is your top priority)
