Then I’d personally recommend checking out disk golf. It’s a relaxing hobby, and I’d be willing to bet local parks in your city would have a few holes.

Other ideas just off-hand would be:
- road biking : Most cities have groups who ride regularly. Always a better idea to join a group, both for motivation and visibility.
- cooking : This can be solitary or social (if you invite people for a meal). It’s easy to learn and hard to master, and the worst case is you end up with food.
- art / music : Take an art class. Local community colleges tend to have art 101 or other similar intro classes available for pretty cheap. Being creative is a great way to exercise parts of our brains that most of us don’t use much.
- reading : Join a book club. Stick with fantasy or sci-fi or something else which can’t accidentally become work. Go to a coffee shop and spend a few hours being antisocial but still in the vicinity of others.
- video games : Not much to say here. Video games are just fun and depending on the game, a great way to make friends is to join a guild in some competitive team game. I personally love a good rogue-like platformer (a.k.a Hollow Knight, when is the sequel supposed to release again?).
- D&D (or other table top games) : Same idea as video games but without the tech and with the guild built in. Check out a local game store and ask about joining a one-off.

Anyway, even if none of these work for you, I hope it at least helps get you thinking.
SmartGit have not received credit it deservers, sure there are hi quirks like showing unstaged file tree, but workflow with git made me switch to it from GitKraken, GitExtensiona and others.

I would call the benchmark article rather subjective due to limited amount of comparable features and excluding most frequent workflow components with a respective ease of use score.
I was unhappy with existing solutions, especially I wanted the ability to handle differences between machines. So I built my own! You're welcome to see if you like it :)

I enjoyed this video, but I think its effect depends on how much you know beforehand about Paul Otlet.
I’m very happy to see that there is now a museum.

For those that would like to learn about its significance in context I recommend this talk: “Alex Wright - The Web That Wasn't: Forgotten Forebears of the Internet” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CR6rwMw0EjI&t=823s

I happen to be very interested in Hypertext, but it was only in 2016 when I actually learned about Douglas Engelbart and Ted Nelson. I thought I knew about them, having found some mentions of them, but that time I did listen to them for the first time in recorded interviews, I read for the first time their writings, not what someone wrote about them, and realized how much I did not know until then.

Once I realized that, I started looking for more information and some time later I learned about Paul Otlet from Alex Wright, but all that took a while.

This video by "The Tim Traveller” is, as the channel name implies, primarily a travel video and it is a pleasure to watch if you already know about Paul Otlet. But if not, what stands out is things like confusing The Internet with The World Wide Web, things that someone like me would just ignore while enjoying the good bits.

I don't really understand how SmartGit failed you? In your table of results it covers at least as many features as the others.

I call this out because I have been using SmartGit as my only git gui now for about 10 years and I think it does a grand job. It doesn't hide any information about the repo and makes just about any operation pretty straightforward. I also find it's built in diff and merge tools better than others. It also performs well enough and had been super stable.

(I am not affiliated with SmartGit, just a happy customer).

Talk to your friends and ask them to share the warts of their job with you. Every job has them.

I also did a 3 month, 1 day/week internship at a sustainability consulting company in an area I was interested in. I learned a lot about bees and also that there was very little money in sustainability consulting. That led me to treat the interest as a hobby rather than a potential career. If you can swing this and keep your current job, highly recommend.
The only passable git GUI IMO is the one built into Jetbrains IDEs. VSCode makes only the very most basic workflows simpler (doing a commit) so I use that as well on the rare occasion I'm using VSCode. For every other git GUI, I'd rather just stick to CLI.
Ok. Thanks. Sounds like you are mainly struggling with topics around numbers, investments, costs etc.

Unfortunately I don't have a specific resource to recommend.

But I can share from my experience.

I have advised some tech people on this specifically and it usually boils down to: explain everything you want to do in $ figures. $s is the language the CFO and the CEO speak. So you need to translate anything into their realm.

Most tech folks talk team, tech, servers. CFOs/CEOs don't bother and don't understand. So try to calculate some basic business cases for most of your requests and for their questions to you. Nothing basic, but have some rudimentary logic ready.
Ah, I should have been more precise. If you were to reword a commit in the equivalent manner as `git rebase -i`, which is to say, reapplying any descendant commits/patches, you would be guaranteed not to get conflicts while applying descendant commits.

I suppose there is some possibility for merge conflicts in a workflow where you reword a public commit, which changes the merge-base in an unfortunate way and causes conflicts to appear which wouldn't have otherwise. Primarily I meant the workflow where you reword local commits only.

More enlightened version control systems like Mercurial can handle this better, such as via its "commit evolution" feature. If you then rebase on top of a reworded commit, the patches will apply the same, and you can resolve the so-called "divergence" by running `hg evolve`. (It's still possible to have un-automatically-remediable divergences, such as if two people reword the same public commit in different ways, but it handles the common case.)
The fact there is no de-facto UI for people that don't understand tech IMO points to the problem being just too hard to grasp for average person.

DVCS of any kind just requires certain bottom level of knowledge, if you don't have it you will just get yourself into trouble regardless on how good UI itself is.

> The Git version control system has been causing us misery for 15+ years

I think git is pretty good. It was good enough to be the first VCS to really reach critical mass (before, I used RCS, CVS, SVN, and hg). It might not be the BEST vcs, but it's got everything I need and it's easy enough that I can teach non-technical people to use it and clean up after them when they find the footguns. And the cli has been shortly but surely improving. It has facilitated my collaborations for 15 years with very little misery.
I don't see how in-kernel vs out of tree drivers is at all relevant. There's no problem getting the raw sensor data out of the device and delivering it to userspace. The main problems are at the opposite end of the software stack: the applications and the GUI toolkits they use. Mac OS pretty much has one GUI toolkit and window system, with good multitouch support throughout. Linux is a menagerie, and as a result getting features like multitouch or accessibility features implemented uniformly is a Herculean (Sisyphean?) task. X vs Wayland differences can make this a bit easier or harder, but cannot remove the need to implement multitouch support in GTK, Qt, etc.

Yes the training process looks at pixels, because that’s all it has. That’s the point. Humans don’t look at pixels, they learn ideas.

> Do Timpani players themselves play with ear protection? (Pretty common for drummers in pop music.)

I don't. Most of the music I've played in an orchestral setting hasn't really been that loud; there are certain sections of a piece where you might play louder than usual, but most is fairly low in volume. Wearing earplugs would mute everything else, including details you might need to hear, feedback from the conductor etc during rehersals etc.

As an (amateur) percussionist/drummer I will typically only using custom earplugs if I play a really piercing instrument for extended periods, such as bells, chimes orchestral cymbals, or if I'm standing close to them.

A drum kit in an orchestral setting is usually not that loud, at least not from my experience. Drum kits in band settings on the other hand... In those settings I'll usually wear in-ears whenever possible, which gives me a mix of whatever I need to hear, as well as a little bit of my drums so that I can hear what happens onstage. If not possible, I'll wear custom plugs which reduces everything more or less evenly with ̃~25dB.
No. I’m not saying that the impact of one person’s lifestyle is miniscule in this context; I’m saying that it is miniscule in aggregate.

I feel like the entire concept of version control is "unintuitive", especially when you have multiple people working on the same codebase.

What's worse, is that a lot of people who seem to be asking for the same workflows actually have slightly (or significantly!) different conceptual models of what they want, so we end up in this weird place where we think we all want the same thing but actually don't.

If anything, git has clearly demonstrated that this is a complex space, and its perceived unusability stems from the fact that the operations it supports simply map onto basic graph operations.

It would be exciting if this is true. I just can't get past the statistical analysis.

Has anyone else noticed that the fit functions in Figures 3, 4, and 5 of https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/cambridge-archaeolog... go right through the _centers_ of most of the histogram bins? It's pretty clearly a binned fit and the fit function is just picking a few bins to overfit to while ignoring the other bins. With so little data, it would be more robust to do a simple mean or median, rather than this misleading fit. Later, it looks like they're inferring p-values from the fitted parameters, which aren't going to mean very much.

Maybe the ultimate conclusions of this study are correct anyway. It just bothers me that the data analysis isn't justifiable as-is.
SmartGit failed to provide for any of the workflows discusses in https://blog.waleedkhan.name/git-ui-features/#rubric. Can you clarify which of these points was assessed wrongly, so that I can update them?

It is very much subjective!
Do you remember how schadenfreude, became part of popular culture? It put a name to a feeling that people were already experiencing and people shared the concept because it helped explain part of themselves to themselves? It's like that.

Does the signifier schadenfreude alone commodity the feeling? That's a complicated question. In the way all signifiers commodify signifieds. See works by semioticists for opinions on this.

It feels like by interplay you might be suggesting is that commodification acts to produce more gender dysphoria. That's a but like asking if the word "anger" acts to commodify the embodied emotion and produce more angry people. I suspect the feeling would still be there, but far fewer people would self-identify as being angry at times because of an inability to recognize and communicate their experience. The inability to identify and communicate the feeling would cause a bunch of nth-order effects.

We've all been taught at a young age that there is a word for being angry, "anger" as explained to us by our parents, but by teaching us this word our parents didn't instill anger in us. Rather we've been taught to identify a pre-existing emotion.

As to the later, you can perform the thought experiment of closing your eyes and imagining how you would react if everyone approached and interacted with you as if you were the opposite gender. How would you reconcile your personal identity with that of people's behavior towards you? Do you suspect it would cause you to turn inwards and modify your internal sense of self or do you suppose your internal sense of self is foundational and that you would attempt to persuade those around you to instead adjust their perceptions?

To extend, personally, I would love to see a treatise on Stoicism as applied to gender dysphoria. My gut reaction though is that if an ingroup is suggesting stoicism to an outgroup, something has already gone very very wrong.
I guess no one size fits all, but here is not 2 hours per IC, its two hours total with all ICs involved. We have a very async nature and mostly keep track of each other through tools, so maybe that helps.

>I will award honorary negative points for any client which dares to treat git rebase -i as if it were a fundamental primitive.

If you think that a git rebase is overcomplicated, rather than a fundamental primitive, then you missed an important part of the tool. And phrasing it this way is an insult to anyone who really tried to understand the tool - kind of like the nerd badge in schools.

Git rebase is fundamental to Git in many ways. It is also easy in many ways. At the minimum, it makes it easy to make mistakes while experimenting much less of a hassle, since the commit chain can be cleaned up later.

However, the point here is that git rebase is more similar to what the kernel developers and git developers intended to do with the tool, compared to the commit-merge workflow. There are two aspects here:

1. The tool developers want every commit to be feature-complete and that it won't cause broken builds at least in the master branch. This is impossible to achieve in the regular commit-merge workflow.You need to add the interactive rebases to achieve the goal.

2. Git hides something behind the snapshot model it claims to be based on. The commits themselves are snapshots. But the way changes are propagated between commits (like stashing, commit amending, merging, cherry-picking, rebasing, squashing, splitting, etc) depend on plain old text diffs/patches. It takes a while for beginners to realize this. The kernel devs were using emailed patches and tools like quilt patch manager for nearly a decade before they created git. You can still see the influence of diff, diff3, merge and quilt in the design of git. Knowing this makes you much better at predicting the outcome of these operations. Blaming the tool without trying these techniques is very uncharitable indeed.

I've been learning Pijul these days. All those complicated operations are condensed into a small set of commands in pijul. For one, it concentrates on patches only. I feel that part of Git's complexity is its mixing up of snapshot and patch model into a single program. Git didn't have the luxury of these diff alogrithms back then.
I really expected it several years ago. It's long overdue. It won't be pleasant when it finally arrives.
Even in San Francisco, the second densest major city in America, the automobile lobby put a proposition on the ballot to remove the only car-free street in the city.

The amount of push back from the against any infrastructure that limits the automobile here is so overwhelming, it's completely ridiculous. I've been pushing for more cycling infrastructure my entire adult life. In NYC, Austin, and SF. Basically the only way to get it done is for the politicians to actually take a risk like Bloomberg did, and just do it by fiat. So long as you're trying to build a cycling system, the existing NIMBY populace will freak out.
