A Lovely 10Centuries Blog

@b123400 I'm trying to change only the author email for the first commit of like twelve. Other than that I want to leave history alone.

If I didn't want to save history, then nuke and pave would work. If I'd known Git Lab would be touchy about the email format, I woulda just fixed it back then, but I thought it was cute - and telling of the UI issues in the stash git script.

Oof. Goofed up email on first commit using Pythonista git. Now can't push to Git Lab due to it rejecting the bogus email. (Has extra angle brackets.)

Fixing up the first commit is fun - needs --root flag that's new to me - but then also trying to preserve the commit time. Oy.

@matigo Bah, mine was an ugly and undiscoverable band-aid. I'm all for this change. :)

@10centuries Yay, my web app is obsolete! :)

@phoneboy Rename Standard Time to Daylight Spending Time so we can complete the confusion. "We have always been in DST."

Also fun: the British royal family kept their own half-hour offset timezone for a good while for funsies.

@thedan84 The scheme tells your browser what port to assume and what protocol to use to talk to a host found by looking up the name (A record query for IPv4, AAAA for IPv6) via a name server. So the https version says "assume port 443 if not told otherwise, establish a TLS connection, then talk HTTP over it".

@thedan84 Because it resolves name, not scheme+name, I would expect.

@thedan84 Should be able to see via dig? http://serverfault.com/questions/179630/how-can-i-see-time-to-live-ttl-for-a-dns-record

(FWIW I use Hurricane Electric for DNS for my domain. I have hosting, registrar, and DNS split out across different providers.)

@tomas This inspired "10C: The You're Gonna Need a Jacket Network" ;)

@bazbt3 The timezone db has some standard cities for each timezone, like America/New_York.
