Captain of Industry is a gem with a 4 person team Risk of Rain was 2, expanded to 3

That’s still at a human scale.

It’s also the length of a pendulum with a half period of 1 second.

That one is Canadiab Multilingual Standard. Canadian French is different. Both are in common use though.

Canadian French for programming is great. You have everything you need right there. The only downside is no euro symbol. CMS is something else. It has potential but I find the keybinds less intuitive.

Oh so not an archaeologist then…

Dinosaurs are cool.

Pip is amazing. It does somethings in seconds that take anaconda over an hour to do.

Branches are distinct.

Let’s say you have a main and a dev branch, and you periodically merge dev into main. Because of fast forwarding (on by default) the main branch is completely gone from the history. If you then add bug fixes and project branches it becomes a tangled mess really quickly and it’s nearly impossible to understand the structure by looking at the tree.

On mercurial every branch is named and distinct forever. You don’t have to try to understand what happened to the project since it’s obvious by looking at the tree.

Now there are ways to have a clean git history, but afaik you either need to make sure nobody ever messes it up or have everyone rebase everything and only keep the history of the main branch.

When working in a hyper structured organization that may work, but for more casual developers (scientists, students) that aren’t system experts and where you have messy history, mercurial default settings are less confusing, easier to learn and produce better results.

It makes the history clearer.

Surely it could be rewritten in Fortran if performance is really a concern.

No, git has labels on heads of branches. Once the head moves you loose the information. It also makes for a more messy history, which I believe created the whole “rebase everything” philosophy to cope.

Care to explain your comment for a layman?

From my limited experience mercurial is way more intuitive than git. The big one is named branches are a thing instead of an abstraction.

Fortran is still widely used. I want a rockstar virus.

The scientific method states quite clearly that you can never prove anything, only disprove. Failure to disprove warrants publication to try to get other people to disprove. But it’s still rarely properly applied, especially when you get further away from theoretical research.

I feel that it’s his general philosophy

That’s bullshit and you know it. Evil is not a prerequisite for free will.

Then it’s not omnipotent. That’s literally the first point

I do the same but Egyptian

I use Egyptian gods!

Mint has a bunch of tweaks to make it more approachable. Apt assumes Sudo, typing passwords shows stars, little things that usually trip new users.
