jacobrussell commented on Git cheat sheet [pdf] wizardzines.com/git-cheat... · Posted by u/tambourine_man
I always find it interesting how knowledge makes it hard to comprehend the difficulties other people have. I used to barely understand git, but after a couple of years working at a company that relies on a rebase workflow, I'd like to think I largely understand how it works. Its nice to recognise pretty much every operation on this cheatsheet.
Is it common that developers still have issues with git after using it professionally for a couple of years? Admittedly, I still have trouble remembering the commands to do what I want (hello, rebase --onto A B C), though :P.
I can do git pull, branch, add, commit, push, merge, diff, status, stash pretty much without thinking but much beyond that I have to look it up.

I thought the same thing! Very interesting. I wonder if this is happening on other sites like X/Reddit.
jacobrussell commented on Insomnia REST client now requires an account github.com/Kong/insomnia/... · Posted by u/mmillin
Can someone please explain what the core issue is here? The Github issue says "needing an account" but the Kong CEO says below that
"2) Insomnia still has a local-only mode (Scratch Pad) that doesn't require any account, that anybody can use. A collection can be imported into Scratch Pad for API debugging purposes."
So, if I don't need or want any sharing and keep my collections in the file system, can I still use it without ever creating an account or not?
You can use scratch pad without creating an account, but any workspaces or collections you had saved in Insomnia can't be accessed without an account.
