I love a good "Do this, not that" post. And this is a good one:

Do `git reset --keep`, not `git reset --hard`

Git: avoid reset --hard, use reset --keep instead - Adam Johnson

When I started learning Git, I found many references covering two ways to undo commits with git reset:

There is zero value in the existence of an entirely AI generated video social network. Literally only bad things will come of this.

The next version of Storybook will only have one significant breaking change:

Storybook 10 is ESM-only.

A yellow 8 with a large and complex dependency graph underneath, a right arrow extending from that labeled 50% lighter pointing to a pink 9 with a much smaller and simpler graph underneath, another right arrow extending from that labeled 15% lighter pointing to a blue 10 with a simpler dependency graph labeled ESM and a graph with a red line through it labeled No CJS

« Wokisme » dit Le Figaro pour évoquer la purge de Trump dans les musées...

Et quand on lit l'article, est visé tout ce qui parle :
- D'esclavage
- De minorités raciales, sexuelles & culturelles.

Le wokisme, c'est donc tout ce qui n'est pas masculin, blanc, hétérosexuel & esclavagiste.

CQFD.

🤔 Curious to see how such a tool will evolve
👍 For now I guess it’s a good thing for transparency
😳 but I wonder how people will manage to bypass it and how it will be use against creators
