GitHub finally copied one the best little features from Bitbucket (which I added in 20% time/innovation week 😛), showing a link for creating a pull request when you push:

@bentlegen Nice! Only thing I’m missing now is seeing the commit metadata (message, etc) when looking at a commit, e.g. using git show.

[Robin Stocker @niborst]

@headius @detoklastah Also, you can’t return an existing object instead, e.g. a static “empty” one.

@suburban_melb Nice read! +1 for PIDs, in Switzerland even buses show next stops and connections.

Also, fact check: Zurich has double decker suburban trains: https://t.co/1qm8vrjBQF

@jwrowls @SydneyMetro Haha. At Central the platform screens were just empty. The one at Martin Place was like this for a bit.

TIL about text fragments, to link directly to some text on a website (without there needing to be an ID):

My Java library for Markdown (commonmark-java)

… is now used by Java itself (OpenJDK)!

And here's the pull request that added it: https://t.co/lGBmyoTUc5

@boyter +1. I like to have explicit JSON property name annotations, even if they could be automatically inferred from the code (e.g. foo_bar from fooBar).

[Robin Stocker @niborst]

Interesting. I used to be team “*” because it’s closer to a bullet but now I’m team “-“ because it’s easier to type and looks nicer in the source.

[Robin Stocker @niborst]

In Markdown or WYSIWYG editors, when you want to start a bullet list, what do you type?

[Robin Stocker @niborst]

@lukaseder It’s like programmers with “iff”.

[Robin Stocker @niborst]

Just used `git restack` for the first time after doing a `git commit --amend`, and it just worked :chefkiss:

When you can finally use List.of instead of Arrays.asList/Collections.singletonList because your Java library no longer has to support Java 8.
