My understanding of it is also pretty surface level, but I was not under the impression that it develops "expertise" in a particular subject matter, at least not in a way that's ea…

> You can think of it like sharing. was this meant to read "sharding"?

I understand that GitHub kinda ate the world on this, but using a branch PR as the basic unit of change seems like an arbitrary choice to me. Torvalds invented Git for work on the …

I wonder if they could have added the ability to take only certain commits from a PR though? It kinda seems like they're duplicating the "unit of change" arbitrarily, rather than j…

I don't have experience with the stacked PR workflow and often find myself asking the same questions you are. As far as I can tell, the biggest benefit of stacked PRs over just mak…

Yeah my phone was doing that for a while. I just took it as a sign that maybe I should spend less time on Reddit. After a while it stopped gating me. Not sure if that was a measure…

I got a gen10 plus microserver and liked it so much that I got a second one. Throw FreeBSD on it and add a couple lines to /etc/exports and rc.conf and it's a NAS right out of the …

I'd probably just buy a cheap prebuilt PC with a big case, or surplus enterprise tower. You can get cheap LSI PCI cards and do miniSAS to SATA if needed. The biggest concern I'd ha…

I'm guessing you mean fuel injector? The pump that pushes or pulls fuel up from your tank is not very sophisticated, afaik. Fuel injector timing and quantity, along with ignition t…

I would love to hear more about this

> rarely we get things wrong (e.g. classical physics) Curious, do you think quantum physics is the end of the line? I wouldn't claim to have a good understanding of anything beyond…

I would be interested to see benchmarks for that patch

I wasn't aware there was a substantial latency difference between fiber and copper. Some googling suggests copper might be .4-.8c and fiber might be a more reliable .6c? But even i…

That's pretty nifty. Another affordable option I found was this "SFP Buddy" [0] for $50, which at least at the time seemed like it was about 10x less expensive than other market op…

I got stopped after 5

buildroot does a nice job of tying a lot of this stuff together

This sounds like a great approach to me. I've thought some kind of pi zero 2w based smart speaker system would be an awesome project for a while. I am having a difficult time imagi…

I think you have this pretty backwards. Private equity does not exist because of pensions. Private equity is investment that has not taken additional steps to be a part of regulate…

> Switch to a previous commit, make edits, changes propagate into the future commits In what way is that different from using `git rebase -i` to edit a commit?

what share of the DRAM market does China control today?
