Wozniak: I didn't reduce chip count for manufacturing. I wanted to prove I was clever8 days agoI’m not sure I’d consider it messed up at all. Knowing WOZ he’s just MITM serving a prank website that also tells users to not connect to random WiFi like this. You kinda get what you deserve if you connect to unprotected WiFi that you don’t own/setup yourself.

Has Github/Microsoft rolled back the master to main switch?1 Feb 2025, 20:56While it may be true that the master branch is more akin to a master record, not everyone knows the nuance and quite frankly it doesn’t matter, if it makes people uncomfortable then it shouldn’t be a problem to accommodate a simple change, most of the tech world has already done so. Computers used to have a literal slave/master relationship with hardware components and control systems and we moved past that just fine despite still having controllers and actors everywhere.

Has Github/Microsoft rolled back the master to main switch?31 Jan 2025, 15:23Again, you’re conflating your own stubbornness with correctness and that just ain’t how it goes. Branch names are frivolous. So much so that changing the strategy or retargeting a branch one time shouldn’t be such a nightmare for your pipelines that you have to pretend like you’re the big dick on campus spouting accomplishments when someone mildly suggests there’s a mistake in your thinking. Look inward if you’re so upset by this that you have to make up irrelevant insults in a vague attempt to protect your own ego, then go fix your pipelines to make it easier to do for the next person after you’re gone.

Has Github/Microsoft rolled back the master to main switch?31 Jan 2025, 05:15lmao nothing you've said has anything to do with "Main is more concise and less problematic". Just because you created more work for yourself by having 70+ pipelines that need to be rewritten for a branch name change doesn't mean it's less concise or more problematic. It means you messed up by not having a pipeline capable of such a basic feature -- generalized targets with a separation of concerns. Standards change, requirements change, so do build pipelines. Being stubborn is not a reason against changing colloquial terms out of respect and growth in understanding.

Has Github/Microsoft rolled back the master to main switch?31 Jan 2025, 02:32The only statement in your ridiculous rant that has any validity is that of your legacy pipeline configurations. But pipelines need to be updated and validated semi-regularly and should be generalized to begin with, so it’s not really any good point that your legacy pipelines cannot handle a default branch name change like modern pipelines should.
Swap main and master in your comment and it reads the exact same with all the same shallow justifications.
