It doesn't follow instructions, insists on being "conversational" despite being told not to be.

This is true. But at jj ci you're plonked into an editor and can change the description.

jujutsu is a fresh take on git-- you describe the work you're about to do with jj new -m 'message'. Do the work. Anything not previously ignored in .gitignore is ready to commit with jj ci. You don't have to git add anything. No futzing with stashes to switch or refocus work. Need that file back? jj restore FILENAME.

The majority of comedy works because there is truth in it. Sure, Idiocracy is prophetic, or we wouldn't be discussing it today. Nobody discusses South Park's "Bigger Longer Uncut" like Idiocracy because it doesn't really engage this kind of truth.

What I cannot tell is if people have always been this moronic and we're only more aware of it because of ubiquitous cell phone camera technology and the Internet's capability to rapidly distribute awareness of dumbness that would have otherwise stayed regionally isolated.

"Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that."---George Carlin

It's more "tragedy of the commons" eugenics than "evil corporate-governmental-white supremacy" eugenics.

I thought the movie was more nuanced than that---the "smart parents" of Idiocracy did not have smart children---they had zero children. The smart couple in fact were the ones doing "self-eugenics" to their own detriment.

Eugenics or not, evolution favors the population that produces the fittest offspring for the environment--not the smartest.

I know people who actively fight me on ISO 8601. They don't like the way it sorts their files/folders, reliant on whatever behavior the operating system does. Whenever data recovery happens or their files are moved, all the change times are blown out the window and the sorting they expect is blown away.

I'm not yet using a 24-hour clock. But it has me thinking. That's not such a bad transition for 24-hour local time into UTC. Or just using both. At some point the inconvenience of the local will become vestigial and UTC is what remains.

What if the only enabling factor to getting to Kardashev Type I is adoption of UTC for everything?

Yep, we're doomed by the Great Filter.

I keep the keys in the hand that closes the door they lock. No keys, no close.

Add: Get the room as cool as possible. Feet and hands are great radiators.

How about two batteries that can be ejected and swapped without powering off the device? We don't need to wait for super-capacitors today.

iPhones... someday. :)
