Usually people say “premature optimization is the root of all evil” to say “small optimizations are not worth it”

No, that’s not what people mean. They mean measure first, then optimize. Small optimizations may or may not be worth it. You don’t know until you measure using real data.

He looks quite concerned.

Looks like you answered your own question. :)

Git is p2p and distributed from day 1. Github is just a convenient website. If Microsoft takes down your repo, just upload to another system. Nothing but convenience will be lost.

And vscode uses them for remote ssh development.

I just use ~/.ssh/config

e.g.

Host website
    Hostname some.hostname.foo
    User bob
    Port 1500

I don’t like how it is looking at me.

Do I need eight arms to use it

Lack of interest. It doesn’t solve any problems that I have.

And that you can sort of fold back the wrong way, just not completely flat.

Even their text is as small as possible. /s

I think this is more about learning how things work then actually saving space.

If there are, they won’t be for very long.

3 wood…

Golf announcers have been calling ‘fairway woods’ ‘fairway metals’ for a while. But since most of them are largely made of carbon fiber these days, even that is misleading.

Isn’t wood a sort of carbon fiber composite? Can we go back to calling them woods again?

Well, it certainly isn’t made of sidewalk.

I disagree that parsing is validating. For example, you could give me a valid ISO date time string, but I want a shipping date and you gave me something in the past. It parses, but is not valid.

I disagree that validating early is bad because some other part of the code might also validate later and possibly do it differently. Yes, that’s bad, but not a reason to not validate early.
