It seems like he was trying to learn though? He clicked it, like “hell yes I want source control, let’s figure this out”
“It says all my files are changed? Oh shit why did it change my files? Shit fuck, undo, how do I undo…Do I want to discard the changes? I don’t even know what it changed. Yes please undo whatever changes you did to my files”
And poof.
Your argument assumes there’s no utility in renting, which is simply not true. A house is a PITA to maintain; stuff breaks all the time. Also, moving when you own the place is much more difficult, and some people value the flexibility of being able to hop from one part of the country to another. If we rewind 12 years, back before rent prices and housing costs went batshit insane, it was a perfectly reasonable option to rent instead of own, even if you could afford otherwise. Rent was basically paying for the service of not needing to maintain a building and not locking yourself down.
Those with investment properties and those with no property. One class above another. You’re just using billionaires as a shield. You want to put yourself in a class above other people.
Do you realize how much money a billion dollars is? One class above another, like a walk up a hill – and then the billionaire class is on a fucking space station. Again, I’m reminded of the Oreos meme.
And yet again, owning housing does not indicate wealth in a “normal” housing market, so your supposed rent/own class division isn’t even true. Very wealthy people can still be renters. Or do you think “landlords” can afford to rent a penthouse in Manhattan?
And the “I don’t want to work until I die” should be covered by social insurance/social security
Well it’s not. So make that a reality before attacking people for trying to better their situation.
I think the reason is “I don’t want to have to work until I die” actually.
Investment property is one of the few remaining ladders of social mobility. Does it suck that it doesn’t extend down far enough? Yes. But removing it as an option just further widens the gap between the billionaires and everyone else.
Where’s that meme with the oreos
Why are we giving these two attention
Oh, but that would mean the website is just providing you information. That’s not the goal–we need to fingerprint your browser, track you, and serve you ads. Quid pro quo – if you want to know this recipe for cookies, we need to know your purchasing behavior for the past six months. Btw, can I use your location? How about notifications, can I send you those? And for the best experience, you really should be using the app. It’s actually just the website wrapped in an iOS/android package, but it lets us track you more effectively. Thanks!

“The economy” is supposed to represent how ordinary people are doing, but now it’s just targets and figures.
Also doesn’t help that wealth inequality just keeps compounding…
Which is true.
So I don’t really understand your point I guess.
Yes. But have you seen the Republicans
Um, ok.
Is there an aspect that you think is untrue?
+1! Easy account/instance switcher from anywhere would be so helpful.
Voting for a further left party than the Democrats will cause the Democrats to wise up to what their traditional base wants.
Maybe after like a decade, after losing a few presidencies in a row.
But we don’t have time for that. The Republicans plan to effectively end democracy if they win the House.
First Past the Post is the unfortunate reality, and yes it’s fucking us hard.

The what now
Oh, you ain’t never encountered a boolean named the fucking opposite of what it does?
I mean, not entirely, and he says he lost months worth of work. Like imagine you know nothing of git:
Click buttons in the IDE to add source control.
IDE says a bunch of files have been changed.
But I don’t want to make changes to the files, I want to source control them.
Attempt to undo the changes. Click “discard changes” thinking it will put them back to how they were before clicking add source control. Get a warning dialog that this is not undoable, but that’s fine because I don’t want whatever changes it made to my files anyway.
All files are deleted and unrecoverable.
Like that experience sucks balls and it’s reasonable that a person wouldn’t expect “discard” == “delete”. Also, from reading the GitHub thread, apparently at that time VSCode was doing a
git cleanwhen you clicked this. Which like…yeah why the hell would it do that lol? I don’t think I have ever usedgit cleanin my entire career.
