> on a read-many format like pdf zstd’s decompression speed is a much better fit.

brotli decompression is already plenty fast. For PDFs, zstd’s advantage in decompression speed is academic.


Pronounced like French « j’excelle » (I excel).

(Kidding.)


Kidding? But I actually kinda like it!

Incidentally, JPEG Vista would be thematically appropriate.

> I think everything about the 10.7 Lion GUI looks better than the 10.6 Snow Leopard GUI — except for the omission of the resize affordance in the corner.

I think 10.6 looked way better. fite me


A part of me still thinks the peak was somewhere around System 7.



Thanks, I know about this and other workarounds. My point is, if it was truly universal you should not need anything! I bet most regular users will never even know this exists.


I never knew about this either and it's been very frustrating as I've been converting my Manga library over to webp (savings are insane) and doing any spot checking opens Edge.

Edit: After reading the comments, this doesn't seem to open in Photos App.


It’s largely the same people.


The point made by the parent seems to be pretty much the opposite of that. They conceded more tooling but questioned the improvements “at the foundational model level”.


> I don't know if I've ever committed a file unintentionally since adopting it.

I’ve had the opposite problem: forgetting to add new files.

> I like it especially in concert with git commit --amend, which lets me tack my newest changes onto the previous commit. (Though an interactive rebase with fixup is even better)

No need for the rebase to be interactive:

    $ git commit --fixup=<commit>
    $ git rebase --autosquash <base>


> I’ve had the opposite problem: forgetting to add new files.

Any good solutions for this around?

For now I've adopted running `git status` after `git add -p` to make sure there's no untracked files, but it feels a bit clunky


I occasionally forget to add a new file but don't mind it much. I consider it a significantly smaller problem than committing a file that shouldn't be. CI is gonna run and my tests are surely gonna fail if I didn't commit some file. So I'll see that and commit --amend or fixup to add the new file.

unless the file I forgot to commit is the tests, which hopefully I'll catch by the time of the PR


You can run the tests on the actual produced commit, if you missed some files there would be a compilation error.

“de facto” please.


Even better is "" since it's not really adding anything


Coffee is my de facto morning beverage.
