Difftastic 0.71 is out! This is a polish release, still well worth upgrading: * A ton of performance improvements, especially for nasty corner cases. * Improved C++, Dockerfile, Haskell, JavaScript, Makefile, Perl, Ruby, Rust, Scala and TypeScript.

I do occasionally find myself wanting to use the phrase "you're absolutely right", especially in technical discussions. I've started avoiding it though. I worry it'd make me sound like I'm just automating my comments.

Trying to let my 3yo try as many different technology interfaces as possible. Mouse: not too bad, especially after reducing sensitivity. Keyboard: WASD is easy to lose track of in a sea of buttons. Controller: requires both hands together, which is tricky. Arguably the left hand is more important too, hard for a right hander.
