TIL, rsync with only one src/dst argument will just print out the source files. I discovered this by unhappy accident (well, it could have been worse: I typed rsync -a --remove-source-files ~). This might be useful in constrained environments e.g. in a container context which has rsync but not many other tools.
A couple of days ago I picked up a neovim/lua project I had started about a year ago, that I felt determined to finally finish. I can’t say I am enjoying the experience.
@fraggle I love that part of Italy. My honeymoon was in Sorrento and I’ve previously visited priano, positano etc along the amalfi coast. Fond of pompeii and Herculaneum too
@david_chisnall @bexelbie @neil I’ve witnessed that pattern in modern iOS games aimed at kids. The ads are also often *playable*. One of my kids played a particular game solely to access the playable ad for a game she preferred (but we hadn’t installed). These almost always have dark patterns to encourage you to start shady subscriptions

@zhenech or when my 8-character homepage uri in my email sig becomes >8 *lines* of base64-style vomit
@zhenech laugh out loud funny when the result doesn’t work for some reason (1 time every 10?)
This talk on user interface design by Scott Jensen is excellent. https://youtu.be/1fZTOjd_bOQ?si=GPyZlEwHlpPCj1Rj
I’ve never paid attention to Ubuntu summit before. Perhaps I should!

@liw the triple-b releases broke my brain so much I often wonder if the release team had intended them to. At the very least I’d like Debian to move to leading with the version as you illustrate, in all official docs and communications.
@neal @andrew_shadura Thanks for expanding. We agree that it's important to clearly distinguish between upstream and the distro changes; and that carrying too many changes at the distro level has serious drawbacks. Where we differ seems to be whether Dgit will make those matters worse or not. Frankly I don't know, but it's a concern worth taking seriously.
