The great blue whale bones that hung from the ceiling was found beached in the maritimes, transported to Maple, and buried behind my dad's OFRI lab in an attempt to decompose the flesh and extract the bones (eventual success!). Our family dog dug it up, chewed it, rolled in it, contracted worms from it, and died. My family will forever be attached to this structure.

> It's just part of doing business. Know who you're transacting with, pay attention to the specifics of your agreement, and do your due diligence.

Most industries don't have the pattern of blocking people on a whim. It should not be a part of doing business just because big tech companies find it easier. And due diligence doesn't work for proprietary social media. There are no proper alternatives because they don't interoperate.

To put that first point another way, lack of capricious banning and similar has been a business norm until now and hasn't been a legal issue, but if companies with millions of customers are going to cause problems then we should collectively bargain their ability to access those millions of customers against those basic standards.

There is a huge amount of friction to go to court. I sure don't want every business in the world to be encouraged to ride the edge of "barely not worth suing".

Solving that friction is not feasible.

> It's my risk to take.

It's hard to measure that risk, and if everyone has to spend lots of time taking care of due diligence for every purchase then that's pure waste that hurts everyone. Purely free markets depend on everyone having sufficient information and that doesn't fit the real world.

And if the fly by night vendor makes a lot of sales by being 1% cheaper, from people that didn't intentionally accept the risk, they take market share and it's harder to find a competent vendor.

Barcelona city proper is in a kind of geographical bowl. Look at it on a terrain map, you can see why the city is dense. It's one of the reasons I really like Barcelona, the forced density of the geography increases the amount and quality of services (especially food!) available.

I don’t think the problem is moving the goalposts, but rather there are no actual goalposts. Advocates for this technology imply it can do anything either because they believe it will be true in the near future or they just want others to believe it for a wide range of reasons including to get rich of it. Therefore the general public has no real idea what the ideal use cases are for this technology in its current state so they keep asking it to do stuff it can’t do well. It is really no different than the blockchain in that regard.

Personally I am squarely in the rebase team although I'm not completely anti-merge. I find the interactive rebase to be so useful that I pretty much never rebase non-interactively.
I wonder if part of the reason the merge flow is more popular (or at least it seems more popular) is because native Git tooling around rebasing isn't the best. In fact doing anything more than the simple reword/squash/reorder (like commit splitting or moving chunks between commits) is abysmal.
Magit really shines here and makes it a breeze.
Why should we even?

The problem with everything today is not only that it’s hype-centric, but that that carries away those who were otherwise reasonable. AI isn’t any special in this regard, it’s just “crypto” of this decade.

I see this trend everywhere, in tech, socio, markets. Everything is way too fake, screamy and blown out of proportion.

> Some like to rebase, while others prefer to keep the disorganized records.

Keeping disorganized records is the only thing you can say in favor of merge commits, and I'm unconvinced that's a positive thing to begin with.
Got my hopes up for a second!
Interactive rebase is indeed great, but:

# Commands:
# p, pick <commit> = use commit
# r, reword <commit> = use commit, but edit the commit message
# e, edit <commit> = use commit, but stop for amending
# s, squash <commit> = use commit, but meld into previous commit
# f, fixup [-C | -c] <commit> = like "squash" but keep only the previous

...the CLI git text-document rebase UI is awful. Better command-line rebase UIs are available, or in Fork, I just select a bunch of tweets, right-click, and squash into parent (or use the https://git-fork.com/images/interactiveRebase.jpg where necessary).

If someone complains that CLI git is somehow more pure than using a decent GUI, ask them to rename a stash and time them.
Not bravado at all, if I was given those odds today, I would put all my effort into it and go.

I think you're reading too much into my comment here.

I'm not saying that the only change I'd like to see is people raising their own food and shopping locally. Our current system in the US is entirely based on the average person wanting to outsource responsibilty, not just with food but also with things like education, safety, and conflict mitigation to name a few.

If I could magically change the world I'd want to see a world where people live much more locally, with smaller tight not communities. Among other things, "the economy" wouldn't even be a concept to worry about. That's not to say money wouldn't exist, but there wouldn't be one overarching government tracking GDP data as though we're still in the midst of the world wars.

More importantly, I'd want people to want this world.
"Murena" just means "freedom" in tech language.

Interesting pattern in this thread of anti-alarmists thinking they’re privy to some special knowledge but actually it’s stuff everyone learns in like 5th grade (btw it wasn’t literal dinosaurs, but whatever).
I had a colleague (smart guy, lots of impressive Ivy League creds after his name) who just _insisted_ that rebasing was evil. There was simply no way to communicate that:

- I can rebase all I want in my own private repo

- Rebasing is fine if no one else thinks they can depend on your branch's history

- You obviously don't rebase master (!) or a branch that you'll collaborate on (not without proper warning at least).

I've seen this attitude more than a few times, and I think it's fear born of ignorance. I just don't get the inability to consider a different perspective.

Edit: formatting.

> A lot of People in “colder” countries with higher purchasing power (specially in Europe) still want to move to Barcelona now that they can work remotely.

That's less and less true. And of those who actually moved to Barcelona, some already left (and companies too) when the independentists started being openly hostile to anything non-catalan.

Why someone with the means to do what is called "geographical arbitrage" would pick Barcelona is totally beyond me.
> What this article is arguing is that there was no collapse -- the population hadn't been higher when there were trees.

But that is not the definition of ecocide. Ecocide is only about the destruction of the ecosystem, and the article itself says that it happened.

What is disproven is the theory that after the environmental destruction the population collapsed. I don't know what this theory should be named, but I think "ecocide theory" is a poor choice.
And then there's the effect on property prices.

AirBnBs charge international prices, which creates a property market skewed by international investment.

I live in a tourist area, and prices here have gone up by between 100% at the low end to over 500% at the high end.

These are mostly holiday homes and holiday rentals, and the locals can't afford to live here any more - either renting or buying.

One of the results has been a huge political shift rightwards, with increasing hostility to tourists and immigrants. Of course the far right cynically take advantage of this issue, and of course they have no intention whatsoever of fixing anything.

But the fact that it's an issue at all is causing huge problems.

Thanks for naming Javalin - I had not previously heard of it and it appears quite nice.

I will say though, I vastly prefer pushing configuration out of my code and into config files/text. Things like `Javalin.create { config -> config.useVirtualThreads = true }` in my opinion should live in a config file.

But, to each their own - that's the beauty of the JVM ecosystem - lots of choice and lots of ideas.
Rebasing is definitely the better option if you can do it. Sometimes it is just too much of a pain resolving conflicts if you are rebasing a branch with lots of commits and there are lots of conflicts. In that case I normally squash and then rebase. Branches where there's enough history to be worth maintaining multiple commits should - 99% of the time - be separate PRs.

The rare exception is when you have multiple people contributing to a branch before it is merged into master, but for obvious reasons you should avoid that when at all possible.

I like rebasing too. When I have any significant change, I usually end up making a mix of clean-up and preparation around my new feature. I like to move the separable parts into separate branches, so that there is less to review per request.
The vast majority of the people I've interacted with don't think hardcore porn should be viewable by children. Those who disagree and welcome to advocate for changing of the law in this regard. It is indisputable though that age verification laws regarding porn have been in place in the country for many decades. The internet is not special in that such laws/social mores do not apply. Such is my opinion.
I think Git's roots show in its lack of DX. But I'll take it over the horror that was SVN and prior tooling.

Question: how does Magit compare to GitUp? The latter is my benchmark for complex rebases, but I'd love to know if I'm stuck in a local optima.
In my opinion squashing is all you need. You keep the organic history on the original branch and the clean and easy to follow history on the master branch. Ideal would be to have a “collapsing” commit instead of squashing for ergonomy.
It doesn't have access to your data, for example.
I do like that when Airbnb, while there's no room cleaning or room service, you do often get a kitchen which is nice. You can also often stay in a "neighborhood" vs a commercial area.

It does feel like Airbnb is just reinventing hotels tho. (Just like streaming is re-inventing cable and Uber is re-inventing taxis)

Why did you use `version: "3"`?
I think the argument against rebasing is spending time polishing a PR to have a cleaner history for one feature that will maybe get looked at during review (rather than the final output) vs also making a PR for a second feature during that same time.

And you can eventually have github squash for you anyway.
Is it that awful? Each option is nicely explained, and the documentation is exactly where you need it, when you need it. I personally found it extremely helpful during my first interactive rebase, and still give it a glance from time to time when I forget the difference between squash and fixup.
Yikes, you can't attack another user like that here. We have to ban accounts that do, so please don't do it again.

Outside of downtown areas in the biggest cities in the US, it is very unlikely that a hotel is built in an area that people would want to build residential housing.

Normally hotels are built near either business or tourist areas. Very few people want their residences in the suburban office park areas. Tourist areas tend to be older areas that have strong restrictions on new development--hotels there have to go through long permitting processes.
How did they topple them? they were buried up to the head?
Have you ever made a mistake on the road that luckily did not result in anyone getting killed?

During WW2, a B-19 crash landed in the Soviet Union. The B-29's technology was light-years ahead of Soviet engineering. Stalin demanded that an exact replica of the B-29 be built. And that's what the engineers did. They were so terrified of Stalin that they carefully duplicated the battle damage on the original.

Be careful what you wish for when advocating criminal punishment.
The presence of stone gardens can be explained simply because everybody in that place was cutting rocks to build giant sculptures, and this should be done somewhere or dumped somewhere. The really strange part would be not finding rubble and stone gravel accumulations in many parts of the island.

I also like rebasing. Sometimes my squashing cannot be completed without manual intervention, so I'll do a squash merge into a temporary branch instead:

git checkout main
git checkout -b squash-branch
git merge --squash [branch-to-rebase]

At this point I usually git diff the two branches as a sanity check before merging back into main:

git diff [branch-to-rebase]
git checkout main
git merge squash-branch

I am normally able to squash rebase 99% of the time using git rebase -i main, but doing a git merge --squash into a temp branch has saved me a lot of hassle over the years.
Well disorganized records can still be very useful.

If you're trying to figure out where a bug came from it can be helpful to bisect through all the commits. If you bisect down to 40 file change that's going to be a pain to continue bisecting. However, if you can bisect down to say 5 changes where your bisection fails and 4 of them are because the app fails to build and the 5th is because that's when the bug was introduced that can be very useful.

I have experience building boards in Altium and found it rather enjoyable; my own knowledge was often a constraint as I started out, but once I got proficient it just seemed to flow out onto the canvas.

There are some design considerations that would be awesome to farm out to genai, but I think we are far from that. Like stable-diffusion is to images, the source data for text-to-PCB would need to be well-labeled in addition to being correllated with the physical PCB features themselves.

The part where I think we lose a lot of data in pursuit of something like this, is all of the research and integration work that went on behind everything that eventually got put into the schematic and then laid out on a board. I think it would be really difficult to "diffuse" a finished PCB from an RFQ-level description.
I think it could be both: latent guilt is a primary motivator and a narcissistic seek to exert control
