What currency is that? Is it possible that this error is related to translation? Perhaps somebody who didn't speak English used a translator/LLM/both and couldn't check the response?

we should make the empty string the name for the default branch

everyone understands

no, new people learn git every day.

'main' is much clearer. It's maybe not the same readability gain as 'blocklist/allowlist' over 'blacklist/whitelist', but it's still there.

I would argue that it's best/easiest to leave existing projects on master, and just use main for new ones. Either way I agree, people arw reactionary af about this issue

Why master? main is much clearer

regardless of that, it's never inconvenienced me and it's still a net gain in readability, since main actually means what it means. have my shell scripts set up to use either one for any repo I'm in automatically.

thanks! but I meant the gymnosperms

thanks haha, I'm asking about the gymnosperms

can you explain? What does survivorship bias have to do with that

honestly I think they also just want an excuse to charge you extra, but the official reason is also safety, to prevent injury if a bag falls out of the overhead compartment during turbulence.

It's for the safety of the people handling the luggage, not for the weight of the plane

Drug addicts are shamed and no one cares

Many people care, and why would that make it okay?

visibky shakes, torn between answering the question and calling an ambulance

When we measure calories in food we are speaking of bioavailable chemical energy. The energy listed for Uranium here is not chemical, it's the nuclear potential energy released during nuclear fission which is completely different.

That was probably obvious but ackshyually if we include the nuclear potential energy that could be released from fusion, I would wager the water in that food has enough hydrogen to give the same amount of energy, since hydrogen carries far more nuclear potential energy.

ugh time for my weekly shower again

pronounced kinda lika Quetzalcoatl

Why can't you open the windows?

Edit: Ah wait I just remembered that German tilting windows aren't a thing everywhere

I love curly fries, but the ones depicted look pretty mid

Open-backed headphones in public will have everyone around you hearing your music no? Doesn't seem suitable for public transport for example.

And I just don't like in-ear anymore... Used them for about a decade but it's always discomfort and trying to get them in just right, and I tried so many models. Not to mention you need to clean your ears all the time or risk pushing the wax deeper into your ear canal each time (or getting it all over the ear bud)

For me personally, the sweat is a small price to pay for the comfort and sound quality of over-ear headphones. Plus they're harder to lose!

how would a cave form on the moon? impacts just leave craters right? And there's no water that could move stuff around, and no tectonic activity
