Git? Snow? (geek, weather, covid-19)

Jan 21, 2022 06:36

We are currently at the point where if the forecast is inches of snow, we think "maybe we will see a flake or two." As i headed to bed last night, there were fat flakes falling occasionally. I think if a cluster of snow crystals found each other to fall together, they could stay cold enough to hit the ground as snow.

Tonight's prediction is 2" of snow. Yeah, right.

So are the grocery shortages supply chain or snow panic, i wonder.

I read the announcement of a late February pub crawl in my town with a sense of wonder. The Omicron case rates shot up so fast: could they come down fast enough in the next four weeks for a pub crawl to seem not insane?

In other wonders, i wonder if the tech folks among us have a guide to using git they like. I am really fuzzy on the different ways my colleagues use it, and i am wondering if i should be using it in my personal data repository more cleverly. I use Visual Studio as my editor these days (since the mac changed permissioning, and i would have to recompile emacs to run it). Is it easy to bob back and forth between branches? Right now i use it like i used code repositories in the 90s. At least my coding is slightly more sophisticated than my Fortran coding was, but not by much.

(Feeling like a brontosaurus.)
