That's not the whole story though. Often, what is more important is how stable the oil is below the smoke point. There's a pretty decent video on this by Adam Ragusea: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l_aFHrzSBrM
Ah, fair enough! On my team we use pre-commit[0] a lot. I guess I would define the history to be something like "has this commit ever been run through our pre-commit hooks?". If you rewrite history, you'll (usually)…

It's not actually clear whether you're using Wayland and complaining about X11, or the other way around... (or on a different OS altogether...)
That is a fair point!
Your first suggestion is basically momentum investing [1]. But as the wikipedia article alludes to, there are some issues with this, such as a potentially high risk, that one would need to carefully consider. I think…

hehe yes I can relate to that! I'm not sure if you had this in mind when you said "non-binary", but I also think along the same lines you just noted, that there is a difference between "not binary", and "non-binary".…
In this case, it seems a perfectly valid choice of words. "irreconcilable" basically implies that there is a binary choice -- either use a TUI or aim for accessibility, but you can't have both. The responder was saying…
Do you mean for simple command line output, or also for actual TUIs, like htop and vim? If the latter, how does that even work? Presumably you'd have to configure it on a per-TUI basis, which is exactly the point of the…

I am perfectly aware what that word means, and it is exactly the word I wanted to use. Instead of being a condescending asshole, perhaps you can explain what you disagree with.
Arguably, the terminal is more general. Pretty much every developer will at some point have significant interactions with a terminal. The same cannot be said for emacs. On top of that, the terminal is a more…

Using the bindings is only possible if the library itself is already installed (since the bindings directly make use of the library, under the hood).
