His actual goal is in the final sentence of the article and has nothing to do with moral intent.

He had an interview with Google and they asked him to invert a binary tree, which is essentially taking a tree of data and swapping the positions of all sibling nodes.
While most people agreed it was a pretty pointless question to ask at an interview, mxcl had a full “don’t you know who I am” shit fit on social media.
If anyone hasn’t made the connection, mxcl is the infamous Google interview binary tree guy
Great summary, but I want to point out that the reality of why they’re doing this is to pander to racist voters who were told their opinion by a highly effective villification campaign against this woman in tabloid newspapers.
Once these things gain traction, politicians always kowtow to the loudest public opinions
Yes, the US have famously been influenced by the opinions of British royalty. They started a war over it, after all!
Thanks Will but if we need you to say anything we’ll pop over, take the silver spoon out of your mouth, and tell you exactly what to say and how to fucking say it you useless tax parasite.
FWIW, those PEI sheets usually need higher bed temp than the regular sheets
I hope he takes this firing as a window of opportunity. With the right attitude he can really ground himself.
Woah, where does the US have preclearance? I thought it was nonexistent
Can I see a single fucking example of food prices dropping?
It depends on your intent. If you’re doing it to keep history clean and linear in the long term, it’s a huge waste of time as it gets splatted into a single squashed merge commit. It also makes it difficult for reviewers to rereview your changes as GitHub/Lab can’t calculate the diff because you keep moving the goalposts with force pushes.
If you’re doing it for cleanliness on your local branch then I guess that’s fine, but I find it anti-social in a multi participant repo.
I tried to refuse pay for on call recently as it has tax implications that I didn’t want to do deal with, but my employer refused.
So, yeah, take it up with them you bunch of bankers.
Agreed. I’ve been trying to explain to someone recently why rebasing and force pushing their feature branch has no benefit when we use a squash commit strategy for merging to main.
Again, tools are not blame, but when combined with a lack of understanding and accumulated “git dogma”, it can be quite disheartening.
Same. I mostly use sourcetree to do quick self-reviews and to discard lines or hunks before a commit.
But I’ve also grown very weary of having to dig people out of git messes they’ve made with sourcetree and the likes.
Visual clients aren’t to blame for that, but they contribute. So many times I’ve asked “and what git commands did that run?” only to receive a dumb stare as a reply.
I think it’s exactly that. They are targeted at bootstrapping projects and prototyping and are, frankly, very good at that job.
Not sure on your use case, but I’ve been using Hetzner for a while and it does what it says on the tin.
“Mike, we need you to take the tongue this time”
Piss in the ocean after the rate went up last month. I almost feel bad for the people who are actively falling into poverty but will somehow still vote tory at the next election. When was that again? We’re waiting Rish
But didn’t the BoE say that we were all very rude and uncouth for taking payrises while the economy was mending?
It’s almost like they’re a bunch of self serving cantankerous old fucks with no grasp on how real people live or function in society.
