@tastapod
You can remove DRM from Kindle books. I've done it myself for over a hundred books, which I was then able to port into #ReadEra an #epub reader.
There are lots of websites that will tell you how to do it. This is an example. Good luckhttps://auresnotes.com/how-to-remove-amazon-kindles-drm-latest-update/

@tastapod No. Nonononono.
What I am trying (and obviously failing) to say is that the team has already chosen not to change the name, even though some members seemed to think it was a good idea, because over 3 years ago they thought "The more time that passes with the Jujutsu name, the more likely it is that we'll keep it", because "there is plenty of third-party writing about it. It would be a shame to lose that connection while the underlying model is the same." - i.e. #SunkCostFallacy
I made no judgement on their choice of candidate for the name change, merely pointed out that the conversation and decision about renaming had already happened. -
@tastapod Believe me, I understand.. I am a former Jujutsuka (Hontai-Yoshin Ryu under Mike McClure at the Budokwai in London), and continuing Aikidoka (under Mike Hurley of the CAA).
The project's team have already decided to go with "sunk cost fallacy" for $10, as can be seen here https://github.com/jj-vcs/jj/discussions/2520
All I'm asking is for you to be part of the solution, not the problem, and use the #jj_vcs hashtag, which is the name of the GitHub repo itself.
Or any other qualified hashtag, #jujutsu_version_control, whatever you like. -

@thirstybear to answer your first question, depends on the language.
#Kotlin allows you to have plain text in the test name using `backticks for the string's delimiters` <-- that is a valid test name!
For other languages, I introduced the describe/it pair into rspec long ago (when I wrote rbehave which begat the rspec story runner which begat Cucumber, the last of its name, which begat SpecFlow, which begat Reqnroll, etc.).
describe(YourThing) {
it("does something useful") {

Moving my ongoing Claude vibe-a-thon from my Mac to a headless Fedora mini-PC is having the unintended consequence of teaching me just how amazing #tmux is once you get past the basics.
My new setup is Claude in tmux with a separate terminal pane, and a couple of other windows for chores and admin.
Ditto how lovely #jujutsu is for Doing Stuff that used to be much harder in git.
I recommend reading https://zerowidth.com/2025/jj-tips-and-tricks/ once you are up and running (and the previous post to get that far!).

I feel it is time that people start buying execs copious copies of 'The Mythical Agent-Month'
It's only been half a century.

New old sayings:
Opus here for thinking
Down Sonnet for dancing -
Public Service Announcement: Inserting a pointless voice or chatbot between me and the human I want to talk to—who still works there but now only ever picks up the phone to frustrated and angry folks fed up with repeating themselves—is not an 'AI strategy'.
