The generated paths are not shortest. Click the "About" section for details. It intentionally generates longer paths through smaller articles.

2. Insert "fuck"

Somehow I am mostly just surprised that Nature's graphic designers feel that pie charts are an effective visual communication tool.

One of many articles on the topic https://xviz.com/blogs/pie-charts-good-bad-or-ugly/

That's an interesting channel, though I've personally found it problematic. Nearly all its videos are very strongly negative on China. That makes me wonder do they have an agenda and are they twisting the truth in some cases? Would be great to get any insight on this.

I avoid using git command line for all the reasons above

Personally I use a UI for git which basically solves all of these problems. All the branches and commits are visible. If you want something somewhere, right click on it and you'll get all the available options. Nothing to memorize and everything is available!

My own favourite after testing out a few is SmartGit, but it's paid so not for everyone. There are lots of free git UIs out there as well, but what I like about SmartGit is that it's completely full featured - every obscure git command is available somewhere - so I have never ever need to use git command line when on my local machine, not even for these obscure things like resets, rebase, cherry pick, squashed commits, etc you name it. Also SmartGit is cross platform so I can use it anywhere

It is far easier imo to just use a dedicated window switcher which shows all open windows right away https://alt-tab-macos.netlify.app/

I find native window switching extremely painful and cumbersome on Mac. Very highly recommend Alt Tab for fixing these issues https://alt-tab-macos.netlify.app

I basically can't use a Mac in any reasonable capacity without this now

While an interesting investigation, I have to wonder why it took over a decade to think to compare the non cannonball details in the photos to figure out which came earlier..

I guess hindsight is 20-20 but does kind of seem like an obvious place to look, no?

Agreed for sure. In either type of war though, I think we're agreed it's best to leave civilians out?

I mean I don't think that forgetting our principles and indiscriminately screwing with everything inside Russia's borders because it's all fair game is the way to go either. So for example in this case if we want to damage the censorship agency we ideally remove PII of anyone who is innocent within the leak. I.e. anyone that doesn't actually work for the agency at least.

By analogy, if you hate the prison system, make sure you are punishing jailors rather than prisoners

Kind of need to ask. Does this giant data dump from a censorship organization also include gathered personal data from private citizens? In which case this probably should not be made public.

This is coming from the Ukraine government so.. Seems more likely the scare is coming from Ukraine to stoke international outrage at Russia?

Weird, I use teams regularly and have no real issues. I've experienced some of the issues others describe here, but they aren't major and every software has some little abrasions here and there. I wouldn't single Teams out at all. I think it does what it's supposed to

I use a couple pretty simple measures to get the technical debt idea across, with the numbers variable:

"if we invest around 3 months now then we will reduce the time to market of every subsequent feature by about 2x and also decrease the number of bugs each feature produces by about 70%"

Then make sure they understand that these are just approximate estimates, but it gets the idea and the urgency across.

Oh, very cool, thanks for the link. There is something about human memory, since official stance has been on the side of mask mandate for so long, that makes it harder to remember how it was ever different before. Your link is very helpful

I'm mildly surprised that someone's started this github all the way back last summer, and now it's finally become politically relevant. I guess someone's got an app out there somewhere for everything

Sorry I agree with the overall sentiment that party line can shift with time unpredictably, but who had been banned in early 2020 for supporting masks? As I recall people socially self imposed masks in a matter of just a couple weeks early in the pandemic, in North America at least, and nobody would have been banned for it.
