5000 USD seems high to me as well for a student and you don't know what his girlfiend does. It does not really matter how high that amount as long it can cover unexpected expenses.

When I was a student, I made sure I always had at least 1000 EUR on my account, basically treating the 1000 as 0. I cannot remember ever running into debt this way.

That's interesting. Working in an organisation that switched from Gerrit to Github, I saw a decline in commit message quality. Some people will just leave whatever is filled into the textbox by GitHub. In addition, there is no way for others to review the commit message this way.

It really got worse. In the past years (always the same IP, good reputation, DKIM), I had a few mails land in the spam folder of gmail users, but it did not happen very often.

This week I encountered the following situation the first time: 1. I received an email from a Google apps (or whatever it is called) user. My response to that email landed in the spam folder. 2. I exchanged one or two mails more with another person in the same organisation without problems. 3. Suddenly my response got rejected. I tried sending via various means such as via Thunderbird, via mobile on 4G, via mobile on Wi-Fi, changing the content slightly... No chance. My email got rejected. In the I ended up calling the person from number 1 on his mobile to get the second person's mobile number... Needless to say, I have been less than pleased.

Person 1 was very surprised about their spam filter misbehaving, but at least I can now offer an excuse by pointing to this blog post...

Git has a mechanism to declare two commits equal and replace one with the other: man git-replace

This comes at the cost of having intentionally multiple histories and is not well-suited for complicate cases, but for the common case of "we want to stitch this old CVS-history to this commit", it does a good job.

Usability-wise, replace refs are not cloned automatically and some web-based tools lack support for it.

I don't think it exists, the reason is that if your user agent is Linux you can download the ISO using a browser, so there is no big inconvenience.

If you are running Windows though, Microsoft will actively redirect you away so that you cannot download the ISO.

One might argue that downloading the script on other OSes is more hassle than visiting the Microsoft website to download the ISO...

SUSE had it as default as well. Quite sad that it was tied so much to the main creator's personality and "private issues" kind of sealed the fate of it. :-(

Fully agree. You missed the most inaccurate one:

Now you need to append the contents of the public key ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub to the ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file on the target server. You'll want to do this in a secure way since the public key gives access to your server.

I think it is just a matter of what one is most comfortable with.

The HW-solution is a nice challenge, but I am sure, there are simpler ways to solve it.

On a sidenote: I would be surprised if the issue he has is systemic too Android devices in general. I am sure others would have noticed it if was that widespread that it occurred on all devices.

The China tax bothers me as well. For some electronics parts I cannot find a Swedish online shop selling the product in question. Maybe I find one shop selling it, at an unreasonable price. Instead, I resorted to shipping stuff to my parents in Germany and either fetching it on my next visit or having them send it to me. Yes, shipping cost from Germany to Sweden plus the Aliexpress-price is still cheaper than anything else.

I somehow resent China-shopping getting popular or even mainstream amongst average Joe and Jane (using Wish and the likes). I can see how that prompted this initiative.

"You can now even search for words on Bing through Notepad by simply right clicking on them to get a new option"

That's what the world waited for... I am curious about the politics involved in the prioritization of this feature...

On 32-bit versions of Windows, EDIT (the MS-DOS Editor) reads Unix file endings fine. So finally notepad reached feature-parity with that one...

I am not sure, when they introduced it. It might be that it happened in Windows 95, when edit became a stand-alone program. Not sure if the QBasic-based editor in DOS 6.22 or earlier supported it.

Furthermore, a good cashier will already pick 1,55€ while the customer is paying and put it back is the customer is paying with a more fitting amount.
