Because they are universally incapable of coming anywhere close to the full power of git.
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had GUI-only people ask me to unfuck their repo (fortunately not at my current job, because everyone uses the CLI and actually knows what they’re doing). It’s an impedance to actually learning the tool.
Ultimately any GUI is a poor, leaky abstraction over git that restricts many of the things you can do for little actual benefit.

Here’s a typical fabric softener at Target. $13 before tax. Still not a lot, but it’s not nearly as cheap as $2.
The point of the joke is not that the Python interpreter will change types mid-program on its own, but that you don’t have any real way of knowing if you’re going to get the type you expect.
Programs are messy and complicated, and data might flow through many different systems before finally being used for output. It can and often does happen that one of those systems does not behave as expected, and you get bugs where one type is expected but another is used in actuality.
Yes, most likely what would happen in Python is a TypeError, not actual output, but it was pretty clearly minor hyperbole for the sake of the joke.
You don’t see how type mismatch errors can happen in a dynamically-typed language? Then why do they happen all the time? Hell, I literally had a Python CLI tool crash with a TypeError last week.
Not true! I installed it and played for 5 minutes once!
I just assumed they were already doing this and have never considered them to be something anyone should ever put in their home.
Kids are just really good at learning quickly. That’s all it is, really. Chess is all about study and learning, so kids are very adept at getting good quickly. Obviously there are some who are prodigies, but that’s pretty exceptionally rare.
Adult learners also can get good quickly, but it requires a lot of meta-cognitive thinking (thinking about how you think, or “learning to learn”), time, and discipline. The guy that runs my local chess club is probably in his 60s, and he told me that he was sitting around ~1100 for a long time until recently he started studying, where he rapidly jumped up to ~1600 after, as he put it, “things clicked”.
It’s never too late to rapidly improve your own abilities, which is what I really love about the game, because I find it teaches you to apply that mindset to all aspects of life.
Just sounds like a win-win. The fascists no longer have their travel cops, and people no longer have to deal with the useless bullshit of the TSA.
You were being a massive dick.
Think about how many columns you can fit!
We have someone at work who uses it and he’s constantly having tooling issues due to compatibility problems, so… yeah.
I’m sure it’s fine for sticking in the shebang and writing your own one-off personal scripts, but I would never actually main it. Too much ecosystem relies on bash/posix stuff.
It used to be much better (like when it first started). Now it’s straight trash and has been for quite some time.
Seems unlikely and frankly doesn’t matter much.
1GB of files is not configuration.
It came out in 2013, so no, not new at all. It was an incredibly popular song, with over a billion listens on Spotify.
home-manager has some workarounds it uses itself to enable many common GUI apps on MacOS.If you want to install packages purely by name, you can use nix-env -i hello or whatever. But it’s pretty janky and not really a recommended way of doing things.
Nix. I use it for everything, including all of my tools I use on my work MacBook.
There are many ways to use nix for this stuff, but personally I use home-manager in a flake-based setup. Versions of tools are all pinned in a lockfile which is committed to source control, so it’s easy to get my config and all my tools on a new machine without any breakage (it does require installing first, though).
It’s a great tool and has largely solved the pain of dealing with having to work on MacOS, for me.
Have you used Jira? It’s a memory guzzler
Kind of, though they honestly just do pretend immutability. Object references are still copied everywhere.
I’m confused. Are you saying all of that is a consequence of not using ORMs? Because if so, that’s absolutely not true. ORMs truly are complete trash.
