You are not referring to to a specific git feature, right?

You use your filesystem ability to perform a snapshot of your local git repo? Or you do a cp -reflink?

How do you handle the exposure of secrets to agents?

One thing I like about worktrees is that you get a clean copy (with share git objects though), so you have to copy over what the agent will need, not remove what you don’t want the agent to see.


I wonder what use case there would be to checkout the same branch in multiple worktrees.

Or you aren’t saying this is a wanted feature, simply that magit should switch to the worktree (like lazitgit behavior)?


As a Canadian , I thought that was the expected de facto way of using credit cards: you pay everything with it so you get rewards (ie money) at the end of the year as a function of how much you used the card during the year. At the end of the month, you pay whatever the outstanding balance is, otherwise you pay high interests.

Many of us use it exactly that way, though the rewards (in my personal experience) are immediate as soon as a transaction clears and not yearly. Carrying a revolving balance is a quick way to spiral into bankruptcy because the rates are so high (and the minimum payment is typically 1% of the balance).

I thought this was how credit cards were used the world over. It's certainly how I use them. How do Americans use them that differs from this? Color me confused.

(Also: installments. They are often the norm in my country, but I understand they are less common for Americans).


I don't think that works like that in Europe, cash backs are rare and even fewer people use them.

I have credit card only to be able to rent car on vacation. It is not used outside of that. For other payments I use debit card.


There are fees thou and i cant imagine they are losing out as a business

Heat desperation?

I don’t think Siri is sentient yet.


You are taking things to the extreme.

I live in Québec.

I have children that both went in a province subsidized kindergarten.

By the way, there are different types of such kindergarten. «Milieu familial» which is literally sending your children to a private house of someone to have them babysit your children during the day. They can have a maximum of 6 children with them.

And there are the CPE or «Centre de la petite enfance». There you have highly qualified personnel, way more resources than a "family environment" can provide. They have many more children. The children can socialize much more.

But, being able to have a place for your child in a CPE is akin to winning the lottery. I wouldn’t be surprised some families have paid bribes to get a place.


It’s mesmerizing to see how easy it has been to transform the USA into what was decried China to become about 5 years ago.

You see some form of resistance (the guy that was caught with a truck full of cut Flock cameras) but it seems the population is resigned.


They say "every accusation is a confession" yet I'm still continually surprised by accusations that I never thought would turn out to be confessions, turning out to be confessions. Like the Chinese surveillance state.

It seems to be a type of psychological projection - someone harbors an ideal like a surveillance state and assumes everyone else is harboring the same ideal so they accuse them.

I hope the Uyghur genocide accusation doesn't turn out to be a confession.


Well, the Chinese surveillance state in the US took off 25 years ago, give or take a few days.

it's been around for quite a lot longer than that. 1984 was written in 1949 and wasn't strictly inspired by only fascist regimes - there were and still are a lot of similarities (eg ethnosupremaccy, nativism, etc) that have deep roots elsewhere

>With the end of World War II, Project SHAMROCK was established in 1945. The organization was created to accumulate telegraphic data entering and exiting from the United States.[4][22] Major communication companies such as Western Union, RCA Global and ITT World Communications actively aided the project, allowing American intelligence officials to gain access to international message traffic.[23] Under the project, and many subsequent programs, no precedent had been established for judicial authorization, and no warrants were issued for surveillance activities. The project was terminated in 1975.[4]


Water is wet.

Finder is by far the worst file manager ever created.


You didn't read past the title.

Except for all the other ones.

But somehow the White House won’t consider this a problem because… reasons.

So, like if Batman was into optimizing musical keyboard layouts instead of whatever he’s doing.

So, Jared has bought how many stocks of OpenAI ?
