This notion that `git rebase -i` is some scary unusual thing is totally alien to me. Doing some minor cleanup on local history with rebase is a * basic* operation that I would have…

They didn't copy any hold/hover states which is too bad, those are an integral part of a button IMO

It doesn't have to be mutually exclusive.

When documentation is lacking, if the 3rd party library is source-available then reading the source code is my next step. This almost never fails me. Source code is usually underst…

The article was essentially, "you should hate Anthropic" followed by a poorly explained timeline and some insubstantial arguments. If there was a point there the article did not ma…

I knew it couldn't be coincidence that a green cabbage looks exactly like a giant brussel sprout.
