Personally, I’d love this system (I immediately thought of some code snippets I’d bring!), but I’m curious how you’d handle candidates without any open source projects or contributions who still have a substantial employment history but are unable to show any code from that because it’s all proprietary.

I’m a Vim user to my core, but I still use org-mode with this plugin (and Orgzly on Android) because of how useful it is.

My biggest (mostly) irrational internet pet peeve is the proliferation of people suggesting “:wq” when “:x” is strictly better.

• I really, really dislike having two MNF games at the same time. The entire point of primetime games is that everyone can watch and talk about the same game.
• Although both games were decided in the final two minutes, overall, these two games were amazingly bad (in the sense of quality of play, not entertainment value).
• It's always great to see Deshaun Watson lose. I pirated this game even though I have the necessary subscriptions to watch legally along with a TV antenna because I refuse to give an official view to any game the Browns are playing in.

McLaughlin with his debut touchdown! Good to see a faster pace from the Broncos this week.

That is sexy. My only problem is that I tend to run my Git operations in a pretty small tmux pane on the side of my editing pane, so that layout ends up being too wide to fit well. I’ll definitely keep that alias around for when I have a full screen though!

That’s why git log --oneline exists ;)

My commits tend to be pretty verbose. Here’s an example log from one of my projects.

I follow the standard imperative style for the commit title, and then I use the body to summarize any important internal changes, reflect on the overall project status (for example, what milestones this commit crosses or what other work it might enable or require), and state what I’m going to work on next. I’m sure some people find it too wordy, but I like having the commit history show lots of details about the overall status.

Edit: I always have a descriptive summary, i.e., never one word commits or similar.

Nim is one of my favorite languages, and has been one of my primary languages in rotation for projects for the last five or so years. I’ve written servers (and web frontends, CLI tools, quick scripts, etc.) with it and am very happy with the results.

It’s hard for me to put into words why I like it so much, but I think it might actually be because it’s such a mishmash of paradigms. If I’m in a functional mood, I can use lots of ideas from functional programming. If I feel like using OOP everywhere, I can do that too. And if I want to mix both together, it’s no problem! Nim kind of feels like the Wild West, and while that’s something I’d dislike in most languages, for whatever reason it works when writing in Nim.
