Rejecting it is easy, it's the time spent replying politely that adds up. I've started asking "which case did you see fail?". It mostly ends the conversation.

Worth adding that .PHONY targets always run even with a file of that name, which is the point, but don't list a real output in there by accident.

Recursive make hides this a lot of the time and then fails for you on the CI machine with more cores. Glad you found it.

I said nothing.

-n first. Always. With --delete, every time.

shellcheck catches the local one, SC2155. Not the first one, nothing can.

Of course.

docker system prune -a removes all images not used by a running container. Leave out --volumes unless you've read what that does. People have lost databases.

For grades, that's fine. If it's money, don't use floats at all. Keep integer cents or use decimal.Decimal, and construct it from strings: Decimal("0.1"). Decimal(0.1) has the float's error in it alre…

^[^@\s]+@[^@\s]+$ and move on. Every stricter one I've seen in production rejects somebody's real address, usually with a plus sign or a newer TLD in it.

Same in every language with IEEE floats and a comparison sort. JS is worse because sort() defaults to comparing strings.

reflog is for commits, for anyone reading this later. It doesn't help here because nothing was committed. Which is why you commit often and squash later.

Run it with -print before -delete the first time. -delete does what it says and there's no bin.

And keep newline="" on that open() call if you're using the csv module.
