The JJ VCS workshop: A zero-to-hero speedrun

Become a Jujutsu Master in 1 hour Perhaps you've heard of the JJ VCS, a new VCS replacing git that makes commit discipline and dealing with stacked PRs a breeze. Perhaps you've read the same blog posts I have, about how great jj is and how easy it is to get started. But it wasn't enough for me, and it might not be enough for you. I felt my productivity grind to a halt as I struggled with things that had become second nature after 15 years of using git. Even though I was told it would be easy,

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-12-29 04:00:51

For decades we’ve been trying to make the robots smarter and more physically capable by mimicking biological intelligence and movement. “But in doing so, we’ve been just replicating the results of biological evolution—I say we need to replicate its methods,” argues Philippe Wyder, a developmental robotics researcher at Columbia University. Wyder led a team that demonstrated a machine with a rudimentary form of what they’re calling a metabolism. He and his colleagues built a robot that could con

One of the best, most everlasting parts of that first season of Peacemaker was its opening credits as the antihero and friends (and his dad) danced to “Do You Wanna Taste It?” by Wig Wam. With season two less than a month out, everyone’s been wondering what its song would be, and the answer is…”Oh Lord” by Foxy Shazam.

Perhaps we’ve been thinking the same thing, you and I. That there won’t be a long-standing drought of Nintendo Switch 2 availability after all. The console has been easy to buy online from several retailers this week, including Best Buy, Target, and Walmart. Amazon, which didn’t sell the Switch 2 at launch, is currently selling it by invitation only.
