I have a branch that says it's up to date with the upstream (fork of a repo). I'm trying to contribute a patch, but my commit history in the PR has 26 commits from things that have already been merged rather than my changes from the current head.
Is there an acceptable way to clean up that history so my PR is clean?
Another apparatus question: anyone know what this is?
Two glass bulbs connected by a glass tube. Watery orange liquid inside.
**Edit: It's called a "pulse glass" or "Franklin's palm glass."
A liquid with a very low boiling point is sealed. Holding one bulb will boil the liquid and it will flow to the opposite side. Used to show vapor pressure, IMFs, etc. Very cool piece of old equipment.
Does anyone have a brand (or type) of decaffeinated coffee they would like to share? My wife and I like bold roasts and we're trying to cut down on our caffeine intake. We'd like to still drink a lot of coffee, but not feel jittery.
@joel From an "old(er) person", this is 100% normal.
This is your first career job, and it's a very different dynamic from working a part time or seasonal job. You're still learning the culture and the people who make up that culture.
I started in a new school last August and I felt the same things - not really sure how to connect with people or start to share a little about myself without feeling pushy. I've found they're just as interested in getting to know me as I am to know them.
Does anyone teach a new media studies class that goes through the entire discography and music video library of Rage Against the Machine as a curriculum?
People who make their own bread or soup: is it possible to do this without using a lot of salt but still have an acceptable taste? I really like both bread and soup but anything pre-made has huge amounts of salt in (2g for a tin of soup, 0.5-0.8g for every couple of slices of bread or a roll, so a serving of soup + bread is often >50% of the RDA for salt).
My oldest wanted to stop in the new local bookstore yesterday. I happened to find a copy of Nadia Eghbal's "The Making and Maintenance of Open Source Software" after unsuccessfully getting my library to purchase it.
I'm excited to read this and hoping I can use it in the webdev class I'm teaching next year.
Overhearing some guys speaking #Korean at this coffee shop.
Every time I hear the language, I like the cadence and tone of it, I recall that it has a writing system that's designed to be very easy to learn, and think to myself, "Could it be that hard to learn?" ;)
I like Japanese, too, and while hiragana/katakana are easy to learn, Kanji scares the pants offa me. XD
@projektionsyta@RL_Dane when we lived in Korea, the written language was very easy to learn to read and sound out. Very systematic and structured set of rules.
The language, though, was difficult. The action and noun were swapped which my English brain had a hard time grasping.
Advance team has secured the perimeter, and guards are posted. I expect a swarm of bees will arrive tomorrow when the sun is at its peak, around noon. #beekeeping
@ai6yr is this early for your location? We were super warm two weeks ago and one hive looked ready to ditch. But no drones or even swarm cells. It's now snowing again.
The bees are finding a lot of pollen today, or something pollen like. Only thing with pollen on the property today is some violets and I think that's the orange pollen I see a few bees with.
@ai6yr@firephoto mine are loaded with pollen, too, but I'm not sure from what. Willow still hasn't really come out yet (still early up here).
I started spring syrup yesterday - hives felt a little light and still some cold weather in the forecast. I'm hoping they move some into the hive on these warm days.
I think, I need a way to automate the download process for htmx.js in my projects. I get a bit sick of manually updating it everywhere by hand. And I follow @adamchainz to include it in my projects and not use a CDN. May be I need to write a neat management command for it or some kind of "smart template tag“. Have to think about it.
@ehmatthes No, not yet. I'm new to the building this year, so trying to absorb culture and be a good team fit more than anything right now. We've got a spreadsheet person in the math dept, and she's aware, but she hasn't prompted me to do anything yet.
Today was fun - students wanted to know how stuff was calculated, so I got to do a little mini-lesson with them on data structures.
Meh, moldy frames in a beehive. I guess the online sources say it's no problem and the bees will clean it out, but I think we'll just compost these. #beekeeping
@ai6yr mine are a little moldy as well. Always a tough call on what they can clean without slowing them down in the spring vs what should just be scraped.
