I'd argue if you don't have the work the time would be better spent getting the best client than saving three dollars.

Spacex and Tesla come to mind.

Is there a list anywhere of procedures you can undergo that are worth asking for? Beyond the standard blood pressure, temperature and listening to your heart which feel very comprehensive.

I really feel like I'm due an MOT on my body.

I read it as returning to that feeling of normality. I won't think it'll go back to as it was before but when we as a society have high confidence in generally what we expect the near/medium term future to look likw, then it's a the new normal.
Re:Fortunately, I don't squash my commits on Monday October 05, 2020 @10:54AM (#24688281)
I'm the same as OP. I commit constantly when hitting a natural stop point or when taking a break and push up to my branch/pr. I hate having code locally that hasn't been pushed to the origin.

But doing this means I have many commits that don't mean anything or are unfinished and in an uncompilable state.

So I git rebase and massage the history to make more sense.

I concur, at most state and data should be related is by viewing incoming data as your initial state.

Data is immutable.
