You can always make patchfiles and apply those.

Instead of rebasing, consider a new brach and then cherry picking commits.

PyCharm is the way to go to write Python.

Interesting idea for sure. I’m not sure it would work though. The concept has lots of cultural implications as well. In traditional monarchies the king is usually divinely ordained, chosen by god. A democracy doesn’t get its legitimacy from above, the people are the ultimate sovereign and legitimize the system. New Monarchy also needs some kind of higher philosophical justification.

Political systems often have a short slogan, that emphasizes their values.

• No gods, no kings, no masters
• liberté, égalité, fraternité
• Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit
• blood and Soul
• for god, king, and country
• one man, one vote
• SPQR

New Monarchism could use one as well.

The linked concept of New Monarchy doesn’t have a king. It contains asymmetric votes between classes, which is an interesting idea to keep a check on the aristocracy. I don’t think the system is fully viable as a concept, but it makes a good point at the beginning. If we get an elite ruling class anyway in every system, let’s make it more visible and directly accountable.

On iOS, I use the website with Safari with 1blocker to block the ads. Works well.

It’s an interactive checklist.

On iOS for example it’s also hard. Every app has its own silo of files and then there’s a shared file system. The file manager app is far less capable than Finder on macOS.

Cars also used to be a lot less reliable. Knowing how to change a spark plug for example used to be common knowledge.

The actual state of Linux distributions.

Latin didn’t have the letter j.

Yes, SQLite is the most well known and likely biggest project using it.

I have used it for smaller projects and found it quite refreshing and useable

If you’re not stuck on git, give fossil a try. It’s a distributed source code version control with an integrated bug tracker, wiki, forum, and more. All that in in one 3 MB sized binary.

It can even mirror to GitHub and export/import git repositories.

It’s very easy to host yourself.

Self hosting git repos can be super minimal. If you don’t have a lot of users or repos, just use ssh. Hell you can host a repo on a local SMB network share eben.

however much cleanup I damn well please

The programmer is the expert to make the decision on what’s necessary to implement a feature.

Due to all the refactoring that’s needed --which I’ve been repeatedly bringing up for two years

Never let that accumulate for that long. Continuously do small refactors to improve the structure.

Always spend at least 20% of the time on stuff you know is necessary, but will never be prioritized by marketing heads.

Confused boner

Old Mac OS before Mac OS X used : as path separator Macintosh HD:Users:yourUserName:Desktop:My File.txt. It’s still used for AppleScript. Converting from and to POSIX paths using / happens pretty regularly when writing AppleScript nowadays.

That’s also the reason why : is still an illegal character to use for file names on macOS.
