TIL git worktrees are a thing.

Whenever you're tempted to clone the same repository multiple times to work on different branches simultaneously, use a worktree instead.

This is a 10 year old git feature that I wish I'd known about 10 years ago.

Thanks @webology for the tip.

For years now, I've been using https://www.giuspen.net/cherrytree/ (in Fedora, I install it from Ben's Copr repository: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/bcotton/cherrytree/) which I store at my Nextcloud instance. I don't want to worry about any half-baked literary attempts leaked online ;)

I wanted to reorganize my notes for a long time, but procrastination always won. Fortunately, with the approaching #europython2025 a better task to procrastinate over appeared, so I read an insightful note from @hamatti: https://hamatti.org/posts/how-i-take-work-notes-as-a-developer/ and bit the bullet. Now I have a tweaked variation of something less chaotic than before.

How I take work notes as a developer

I’m kind of a notes geek and wanted to share what kind of notes I keep and why when I work in software development.

numpy uncovering issue in slicing in CPython: https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/126298
With the fix the test in Python was added.

anyio tests uncovering an issue in asyncio:
https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/130221

In downstream rebuild of libraries for a Linux distribution, we sometimes encounter issues during the build of packages, before even the test suite is run, but I understand that's out of scope of the request?

Also, adding @hroncok to the party, he may have more stories to tell :)

@Irisfreundin I thought it's the opposite, that the jungle of my garden invites them to come in great numbers. It's everything but tidy 😀 I don't mind planting some sacrifice plants to distract them from the rest, or as you suggest, give them the dying leaves. That's a neat idea! I have no problem with sharing with the rest of the animals, the issue is in them eating absolutely everything.

@fritzoids The plants were already quite big when planted, maybe that's why they survived. Everything else is gone: cucumbers, pumpkins, zucchini, watermelons, peppers, wild tomatoes...
I don't live close to the garden, so I'm thinking of applying a combination of mechanical stoppers: collars around plants, "fences" around the beds, coffee or sawdust around...

Not much left after the slug-o-calipse, but hey, who said that half a year of work must inevitably pay off? Fun is in the process. Now researching what can be planted in June, and how to humanely repel those slimy creatures. What works for you? (even partially, please no killing advice)

@honzajavorek Jen dva?! Kann nicht sein! Používám Signal více než 5 let a postupně jsem si nabalila snad všechny, se kterými pravidelně komunikuju. Ono to má docela dobrou růstovou tendenci, mi přijde.
