Hey everyone, just watching a very interesting history of Terry A Davis (creator of TempleOS) and around the 30 minute mark there is a list of questions Terry asked to God and the answers he believed he received. I took a look online but was unable to find anything. I don't suppose anyone out there has a link? I'd be very interested to read it. Thanks in advance.
EDIT: I'm also interested in any links to the art he created (hymns, visual art etc).

Some of my favorites are:
git add -p *
This will go through your unstaged changes in chunks and allow you to stage each chunk individually in an interactive shell.
git checkout -p *
Similar to the above, this will go through your unstaged changes and allow you to undo each chunk. I almost never use Ctrl+Z anymore and go straight for this. Want to remove all of those print-debugging statements? Use this command to pluck them out one-by-one.
git commit -a --amend --no-edit && git push --force-with-lease
I alias this one to
whoops
in my bash profile. It will add all unstaged changes, add them to your last commit and then (safely) force-push the local branch to the tracked remote branch. This is especially useful when working with CI and you need to make constant configuration changes to get it to work. Yes, you could squash those commits afterwards as an alternative. But this is easier.
git rebase -i HEAD~5
(Change
5
to the number of previous commits you want to see)Interactive rebases are a core part of my git flow when working on feature branches. If a co-worker gives me feedback on a code review that requires a change to a previous commit I'll go back and edit that commit using this command. You can remove individual commits, squash commits, reorder commits, and so much more.

I recently came across an article about setting up automated builds (installation, code quality check, running tests) using Github Actions. I've since found a few more articles excitedly promoting the feature and, from my personal testing, it seems to work quite well.
I was wondering if others had begun using this feature for their own projects, or had tried it and disliked it and used something else. Is there any broader community consensus towards which tasks it's best-suited for and when to use something more robust?

- Aesthetic: It satisfies your sense of beauty: It gives you the same kind of feeling a painting or a poem would.
- Transcendence: It transcends the zeitgeist and is the simplest it can and thus ought to be.
