It is quite interesting how a utility's mistake costed Kees.
Linus's ATD is quite strong, he could easily spot and later he also
highlights the number of commits that were changed.
The entire discussion is quite insightful!
Yes, indeed.
Unlike WimpyDOS garbage, UNIX based tools provide amazing flexibility and
productivity because they treat the user as an adult!
Mistakes happen and it's important that everyone learns so that we improve in
our craft.
All the theory of click-click guard-rails and kid-gloves is like the
side-wheels on the kids bicycle. It makes the bean-counters happy but it gets
in the way of learning. Thankfully, we have GenAI which will wipe out this
click-click garbage tools and fake programmers.
I'm so happy that we use GNU, GNU/Linux, Git and C++ in our community projects.
