I think it's less a middle path than a third option. I see the type of thinking the author is commenting on whenever there is a tight requirement on a feature. Especially when you know you have to add some custom magic to meet the requirement. People tend to psychologically buy into a fully custom solution early on. So they either hack in a custom solution using abnormal data paths or known bad solutions or they fundamentally rearchitect the system around it. The third path is sketching out the feature so that it's modular and can be replaced. That way you can start out with a standard solution which gets you 90% of the way there then replace it as development progresses.

If I need to move a 'branch bookmark' around a lot, I usually just tie it to an empty commit and then rebase changes before the bookmark.

Congress is completely nonfunctional. It doesn't work. Americans are just too dedicated to American civic religion to admit it isn't working.

It took a small company I worked for months to get new licenses due to AMD just not responding. I'm not sure they have the ability to actually handle this in a timely manner

This might have made sense for the original 13 colonies but after westward expansion, it clearly does not. Most of the western state borders were formed for administrative reasons

There is no legal mechanism left that could correct course at this point. You would need to have a constitutional amendment to drastically reshape government and that's DOA. All that's left is snow decline and eventual dissolution

That might be what you intended but saying "outperforming the academic nerds with zero experience" comes across as bitter and arrogant.

Why are people who don't have degrees always so weird about it?

Language really isn't the difficulty. That's why there's a thousand alt-HDLs that have been used for little more than blinking LEDs.

Its both depending on context. If HDL becomes custom silicon then it needs to be treated like hardware. If you can easily deploy field updates to your device then it's no different than any other firmware

You are mistaken. In the workflow I described, I am making changes on top of all branches at once and then deciding which branch to send the new commit to. This allows me to make changes simultaneously to both branches without friction.

I more or less use the method described [here](https://steveklabnik.github.io/jujutsu-tutorial/advanced/sim...) for branches. One thing I do change is that I set the bookmark to an empty commit that serves as the head of each branch. When I am satisfied with a commit on head and want to move it to a branch I just `jj rebase -r @ -B branch`. When I want to create a new branch it's just `jj new -A main -B head` and `jj bookmark set branch_name -r @`

I worked in nim for a little bit and it truly has a lot of potential but ultimately abandoned it for the same reason. It's never going to grow beyond the founder's playground.
