Well well well.

  1. Use git for any code you write. Yes, even a simple script.
  2. Commit and push often. More often than you think is reasonable. You can always rebase / fixup / squash / edit but you can't recover what you didn't commit.
  3. ???
  4. Profit.

Seriously, once you commited something to the repo it's hard to lose it. Unless you delete .git. But a this point frequent pushing has your back.

I know git can be hard to grasp in the beginning. It was hard for me too. I highly encourage everyone to put in the effort to understand it. But if you don't want to do that right now just use it. Just commit and push. It will pay off.

Since the review doesn't mention any downsides I'm gonna go ahead and share one. This might seem like a tiny thing but relatively slow startup turned out to be a total deal breaker for me. In my workflow, I open and close a lot of terminal windows. Sometimes I spawn terminals just for a few seconds to run a single command and then close them. Kitty and Alacritty launch instantaneously whereas Ghostty has a noticeable lag which was just infuriating to me. Also, it doesn't have any useful (for me) features not present in Kitty so yeah, I guess it's not for me.

They asked

How could you calculate her height from the photo without her whole body being visible? You can't just "scale" it using the phone as a reference because there is no measurement to scale. Am I missing something or is this bullshit?

My Android phone has apparently leaked the list of all the apps plus browsing history I've ever installed via DNS?

The contents of proton pass are end to end encrypted

That's precisely why they can't do the scan from their servers. They don't know the domains - they're decrypted only on your device.

this has caused my whole vault to be leaked to public DNS servers via unencrypted UDP

I feel like this is a tad dramatic. Surely, your vault contains more data, probably more sensitive, than just domain names.
