Unfortunate name furthers the SQLite is "lite" association i.e. underpowered or incapable somehow.

IIRC it is intended to be read as SQL-ite, as having some relationship to SQL.

PG Lite probably makes sense here though, and PGite is not appealing

I've always thought "lite" or light to mean non resource intensive to run, not necessarily less feature-rich.

> I wrote SQLite, and I think it should be pronounced "S-Q-L-ite". Like a mineral. But I'm cool with y'all pronouncing it any way you want. :-)

So it’s actually not -lite but -ite. =)

Fun. Not sure if this applies on desktop, but on mobile the quick/fast/blazing/skip text often blocks vision of the ball making it harder than it should be to make combos

Very much applies on desktop. The restart button is also strange on desktop, it plays animations instead of restarting. I recommend pressing pause and restarting from the pause menu, which is instant.

This precisely.

Suboptimal - likely. There is some utility: a green letter is more useful than a yellow. Checking for a in two locations when a is a very commonly used letter is __useful__. Still likely much more useful to check for the presence of a fifth letter than a chance at knowing more precisely the location of an a.

Pay someone to sharpen them for petes sake. I can't fathom why you would suggest that seemingly off hand, secondary to throwing away and buying new knives.

Because people refuse to sharpen their knifes, no matter what you do. So it's better for them to throw away old blunt knifes and buy new ones. That they will do. And buy a real cutting board at the same time.

Active bookshelf speakers with HDMI Arc input are getting more common. Kanto Ren, Kef LSX II, Klipsch The Fives, Elac Debut ConneX

There's also the compact, simple alternatives to bulky receivers that are becoming available: Wiim amp, Sonos amp, Eversolo play, and the cheaper chinese makers like SMSL and Fosi. Each of those brands has a small device the size of an apple tv that will take an HDMI Arc input, and output an amplified signal to power some passive bookshelf speakers.

Are you looking for solutions within git or jj?

In my experience with jj when resolving a conflict, as long as I do it in the earliest change, I will only have to do it once.

Git has the rerere setting [0] which reduces the need to resolve the same conflict over and over

Yes, you should definitely unnest functions and exit early. But the null-coalesced version is shorter still.

Require the intent to include ticket holder names/id and check it on entry to the venue, multiple intents for the same group can be deduplicated

The article addresses that:

Knots and construction with poles and rope lashing was always my favourite part of scouts. The sketches of the knot looks cool on the surface but don't tell me much about how they are tied or what other lashings they are similar to. Not much detail and the second image has three running ends?
