I don't see anyone mentioning Betterbird here. I use that instead of Thunderbird. But it really baffles me that even in Betterbird, the ability to star an email exist but not a way to show all the starred emails.
Crazy to read about the Solana AI agent transferring $450K to some random person on Twitter. What was even more shocking was the nonchalant tone in which all of this was detailed in the post.
I've been to the Ancient Bristlecone Pine forest in Inyo County, CA where the Methuselah tree lives. Though I didn't get to see that specific tree because the sun was fast setting and I wasn't prepared to hike around in darkness, I had a pretty amazing experience being the presence of 4000- and 5000-year old trees.
I wasn't referring to knowledge of the Paninian sutras or pratyayas, to be clear, when I said "the basics".
For this story, you don't need to know the pratyayas but you do need to know the tenses, the ktva-lyap forms, etc to fully understand what is going on. With only an incomplete knowledge of those aspects, one can sort of intuit the overall meaning but eventually would find that they had the wrong idea altogether when reading the corresponding translation in a language they know.
In my experience of having learnt Sanskrit via what I now realize is the comprehensive input method (thank you for introducing that term to me via your comments on this thread), I absolutely think that the "basics" - enough to recognize the seven (eight if you count the sambodhana) vibhaktis (declensions) and the simple past, present, future and the subjunctive tenses - are required in order to get past the huge roadblock of parsing a word.
Once parsed, I can look up the meaning of the word on ashtadhyayi.com or elsewhere, but not before.
The Valmiki Ramayanam is a much more accessible document than the Gita to learn Sanskrit from as an advanced learner after completing the basics. There's the aspect of a story that unfolds progressively which is nice and engaging, as opposed to the deep metaphysical stuff in the Gita.
The first section of the Ramayanam is the Sankshepa Ramayanam, or, the Ramayanam in summary. This gives the outline of the whole story which then is expounded in detail in the subsequent sections.
After getting frustrated by the game not accepting my responses to the obvious clues repeatedly I resorted to clicking on each person and selecting both Innocent and Criminal.
- "My only innocent neighbor is to the left of Harold"
- "Barb and I have one innocent neighbor in common"
I have a childhood friend that I went to school with for all of my school days. Ever since school days, we find the same obscure things funny and always end up in splits whenever we talk. To this day, I don't have this with any other friend.
We had a few years' gap of not really being in touch during undergrad but that changed as we had a few months' overlap at post-grad university. It was easier to meet after that and we did keep in touch, but I felt that he was holding back somewhat and not really being free with his thoughts, letting the conversation flag at times.
So at a friend's wedding a couple of years ago, I opened up to him and plainly told him that it's a shame we don't talk as we used to as we both are clearly on the same wavelength when it comes to shared interests and sense of humour. And this worked - our degree of friendship has increased an order of magnitude since before that time. I would have lost a great friend to the vagaries of life had I not taken that step to become vulnerable for an instant then.
You are not alone. Coming from Gerrit myself, I hate that GitHub does not allow for commenting on the commit message itself. Neither does Gitlab.
Also, in a PR, I find that people just switch to Files Changed, disregarding the sequence of the commits involved.
This intentional de-emphasis of the importance of commit messages and the individual commits leads to lower quality of the git history of the codebase.
