Disagree about the assisting tool. Yes, you can still find shit, if you stick your finger up your bum hole, but you don't need to powerwash your intestines to be clean. They'll be full of shit soon after anyways. So long as the outside of the door is squeaky clean, that's as clean as you'll get.

If you search for "find duplicate files

I started noticing it around February or March or so.

I feel like it's displacing Corporate Memphis, at the very least in terms of how much I hate it.

It was an effort by multiple Unix vendors to create a common desktop environment: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Desktop_Environment

I don't have experience with Jujutsu, but I always have the same problem with these alternative frontends, which is that I'd still want to be proficient with the original. If you need to look up how to fix something or you want to help others in your team or you want to script something, then the language to speak is simply the Git CLI.

And I don't feel like I even use the Git CLI enough where a different tool could be so much better that it's worth learning both.
Obviously, your priorities may differ, but yeah, that's just always the reason for me why I prefer the Git CLI, even if it were objectively more difficult to use.

I also enjoy "one". There's just a random "w" in there when you pronounce it.

We have a concept of word inflection, which can be used to replace a lot of words that English would use to denote something being a question, ownership markers, causes and effects etc.

I don't speak Finnish, but I believe a good example for such an inflection is how in English you can glue an -s to words to make them plural. In some other languages, you say "many word" instead, because they don't have such an inflection.

It's mainly horrid, because it means you have to code extremely defensively (or I guess, use a different API).
You can't rely on new Date("not a date") aborting execution of your function by throwing an error. Instead, you have to know that it can produce an Invalid Date object and check for that. Otherwise a random NaN shows up during execution, which is gonna be extremely fun to try to find the source of.

I understand that it's implemented like that partially for historical reasons, partially because it's often better to display "NaN" rather than nothing, but it's still the sort of behavior that puts me in a cold sweat, because I should be memorizing all kinds of Best Practices™ before trying to code JavaScript.

(saying something more realistic like “2015” or whatever your inexperience or AI told you to)

User input is probably the big one where this API is gonna get stress-tested...

Hmm, I can believe that it was based on java.util.Date, but I don't remember that being as unpredictable. I guess, a different API to begin with, would have avoided a lot of problems, though...

I do enjoy the irony of them ignoring that particular social cue. 🙃

I'll let the hivemind know that we're supposed to have only one opinion.

On a definitely related note, I've recently been thinking it's wild how we build foot paths out of rocks and then put on rubber socks for actually walking on them.

In other words, asphalt is a scam by Big Foot to sell more shoes.

I imagine, they can still get inflamed gums or similar, if something gets stuck in there...

I believe, you have to take turns pushing down individual teeth. By random chance, it will close the mouth when you do that. So, you lose when you get bitten.

I'm always amazed how badly companies understand the concept of human interaction. Showing appreciation requires putting in some amount of effort. If you just type some words into a box and an image comes out, that's not anything. Might as well use the first clipart that comes up in image search...

I believe, you can basically turn it off in Firefox, by telling it to open new windows instead of tabs.

Might need to hide the tab bar via userChrome.css, though...

Maybe something like this?
