Only people over 60 think Facebook is cool. That's not to denigrate people over 60.

ya i included insta. that's their bridge to.... 30s and 40s?

All very well but I used to say to my sister "I hate you infinity plus one", so how do you account for that?

I used, and even paid for, The Bat! at around this time, but as it was the emailer of choice for spammers, when spamming was a newish thing, I kept getting perfectly legitimate mail bounced and the developers had to constantly update the client to traverse the anti Bat internet! Which was a pain. I also used Opera email client for a while. Which was dross.

It's interesting that you have a baseline for 'being attacked by a werewolf'.


You don’t??


“Luck favors the prepared.”


we do:

  [feature/bug]/ISSUE-NUMBER-summary-of-issue
e.g.:

  bug/psi-456-broken-args-parsing


More or less the same here, but we (I?) prefix it with the username as well, so when pulling branches you know who created it.


I added a new TODO issue so that username can be configured in the branch name. gibr currently does not have support for username.

https://github.com/ytreister/gibr/issues/42


I implemented this in version 0.6.0 which was just released. https://github.com/ytreister/gibr/releases/tag/0.6.0 The issue assignee can be used in the branch name.


A nice benefit of prefixing by your-name/issue-1234-some-description is that many git clients will show it in a folder structure that way and it's easy to differentiate yours from other branches.


But the PR and git blame can tell you this so I would never look at the Branch name to find out this information


For me is useful when I run 'git fetch' from the command line. I don't use any graphical git client


gibr makes it super easy to do exactly this!

amusingly, from the Wikipedia article you link:

"Not only is [the novel] set in 19th century England with a sprawling cast of characters high and low, but Charles Dickens himself makes an appearance"


not to be facetious but image getting a glass of water, adding ten teaspoons of sugar to it and a bit of coffee and thinking that it is . . . 'cola'.


What’s crazy is how many people routinely drink the equivalent of two or more bags of skittles with their meals, between enormous to-go drink sizes and frequent, free refills when dining in.

Like… ew, friggin’ gross.


OK, OK... make that sugar HFCS, and also add artificial coloring. And carbonate it.


Why would a monopoly care about users interests?


I know they won't. But we have all the tools to force them to care. We just don't use the tools effectively, and between that and lobbying they get a free pass to pretty much do as they please.
