They never forced a retroactive change

I think this is an excuse. Using the CLI you can easily create and specify the default branch. It’s also not difficult to check the branch name.

I use GitHub and all my older repos have a master branch with no forced change. When did they force a change? I think you are mistaken.

We’re just used to it though. What does master have above main in terms of communicating context?

I’d really advise against forcing all code contributions to be copyrighted to you. It doesn’t send a great message to contributors. It also gets murky if any libraries are used.

That’s a fair take

I think we’re thinking about it wrong. These aren’t open source people looking to contribute to projects. These are product creators looking to reach the open source community. It’s not the same mindset.

Why is Elon Musk in this comment? He’s not Technology news. Get this content out of here!

Is that what you want? But seriously the only time I see complaining is when it’s not actual tech news, just some random ass tweet he put out.

Exactly! When you’re a teenager it’s hard to appreciate these things. I know I definitely took it for granted but I at least respected my family enough to not start an online game around dinner time.

I love the confidence here after stating you don’t use Twitch. Twitch changed the way they deliver in stream ads, it’s much more difficult to block now because it comes in as part of the video stream and not something added on top.

Agreed that competition only helps us users

Battle hardened > new

Unless the new has a killer feature set worth the trade off in potential bugs

It depends.

I definitely don’t support nazi and far right nonsense but I don’t think deplatforming does anything except drive those people and their users into deeper echo chambers.

Disagree

Posts about people being nicer while being condescending about his position 🤦

COVID mortality basically dropped to a rarity with the vaccine. You can also check public data and see the population of non vaccinated against vaccinated. There is plenty of data to show the vaccines are working. Don’t trust the talking heads, check for yourself!

Live in the US. I saw the news covering it in 2019 and showing footage of people passing out in China. China was the one downplaying it to the world back then.

These days you’ll need to clear localStorage, sessionStorage, and localDb to really do this. The rise in tokens means some sites only use those.

Looks great I’ll have to give it a spin
