I lay in bed wondering when the sun would come up, then it dawned on me …
A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, navigate a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly.

Also,
He must be feeling lazy today. He also copy/pasted it from the source. Don't bother asking how I know this but that's the first time he has ever put a space before an ellipsis on anything he's posted on this website.

That's ... pretty observant of you to notice that I always use a space before an ellipsis.
And that it's a "genuine" ellipsis character rather than my usual three dots (I store future TotDs in a Word document and it auto converts quotes, double quotes, and ellipses which is a PITA most of the time ...

It's nothing nefarious. Don't worry, if anyone ever attempts to impersonate you maybe I will (stochastically) be the first to know.

So why don't you turn off those replacements you don't like? File | Options | Proofing | AutoCorrect Options ...

What do you guys use for your git extension(s) in VSCode. There's a veritable crap-load to pic from, and I'd like to avoid installing crap extensions.

The native integration is enough for basic Git related tasks, but when you involve teams and more advanced use cases for the Git (branch-history, file-history, reviews) I think it is not clean enough.
I have been using GitLens extension, and it has worked perfectly for me. It provides in-file support for version overview; Git blame stuff.

I have a git extension in VS which helps me really at conflicts by giving one click solutions in various file formats.
Press F1 for help or google it.

Hi all,
Thinking on updating my programming laptop.
NOT REALLY NEEDED TO ANSWER THE QUESTION, just a little perspective:
I'm in doubt with:
A) Thinkpad X1 Extreme.
B) Thinkpad P1.
C) Thinkpad T14s.
A and B are quite similar (they are focused to different kind of markets - gamers/video editing / 3D designers).
C is the natural replacement for my current laptop (Thinkpad T460s).
A & B have a nice GPU, P1 would help better when playing with 3D models (not very usual for me), and X1 maybe for video editing (also not very usual in my case).
Anyway the processor in A & B seems much more powerful than the one in T14s:
PROCESSOR COMPARISON and the question itself
Intel website comparison: A & B [i7-10850H] vs C [i7-10610U][^]
As far as I can understand, i7-10850H: has a much better base speed, more cache, more cores and more threads so it should be much more faster than the i7-10610U. But it needs more power to work (battery will last shorter).
I am surprised the price of both processors is similar... in fact the i7-10610U is more expensive...
Am I missing something here? Why is that "lower end" processor more expensive?
Thank you all...

Don't forget the rootkit's that will come with that Thinkpad. Over the last five years Lenovo has been caught twice installing backdoors (one as a rootkit and one as a Man-in-the-Middle certificate attack).

Yes, the superfish thing...
It seems the Thinkpad brand was not affected by that, "only" the more consumer side Lenovo computers...
