Playing Inscryption. I guess I’m about halfway through. I liked how it started, but I feel like the game is already running out of steam. Not sure if I’m going to finish it.
Learning about reflog was a game changer. Now I’m never afraid of breaking my branch. If I mess up, I can always git reset —hard to a previous state.
Another game changer was learning that a perfectly valid way of doing squash is to do git reset to an earlier commit and then do git commit -a. Saves a lot of rebasing headache.
I’m feeling the opposite lately. YouTube recommendations suck. I often open the app/page for the quick dopamine rush, but few of the recommendations interests me, so I just bounce off. For me, YouTube is mostly for long form content nowadays. Something I can put in the background while cooking/doing dishes.
Instagram is turning more and more like TikTok. Sometimes it recommends me something fun (like cat videos), but often it’s just nonsense. So I bounce off quite quickly there as well.
I’ve seen code that look like this:
int delay = 15 * 60; // 10 minutesEven if the comment was on the same line someone forgot to update it. People just ignore comments.
Better solution is to write (in C#):
TimeSpan delay = TimeSpan.FromMinutes(15)Much more obvious what the code actually means.
