The author struggled to remove a worktree with submodules due to conflicting Git features, and they questioned the usefulness of submodules as a package manager.
The GPS device lacks a pressure sensor, barometric altimeter, and magnetometer, leading to inaccurate climbing estimates. It has basic GPS capabilities but weak hardware buttons and no waterproofing or case.
Coreutils now reports errors with a caret marking the problematic character, providing more context than just an error message. This feature is available starting from version 0.11.0 and can be enabled by default or overridden using environment variables like UUTILS_DIAG.
A book titled Calculating with Tones: The Logarithmic Logic of Music was found to have a misleading illustration suggesting guitar frets can multiply numbers like a slide rule, but the author tested this claim and found it doesn't work for all combinations.
Pushin.eu is a Git hosting platform built for humans, not AI, with 100% EU-hosted repos and GDPR compliance. It blocks low-effort contributions and focuses on availability and developer experience over shiny features.
