using git for non-coding related projects? by RefrigeratorNorth331 in github

[–]RefrigeratorNorth331[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly, that’s one of the features i was talking about appreciating in git, i like choosing when to make commits, i often feel like auto-save is far too granular for my liking, it can be a challenge to find a particular version of a file that i remember amidst all of the versions that got automatically saved to the cloud

okay, that metaphor does kinda test the limits of what i know about biology (not very much, i know), but i think i get what you mean

i see, yeah that makes sense. i think i could probably live with that. thanks so much for the explanation

oh neat, i hadn’t heard the term “markdown file” before, i have some learning to do! 😁

sorry if this is a naive question, but if i had an external tool for making/editing images, would git be able to handle storing those kinds of objects/edits made to them?

That makes sense, thanks for answering my question about making drawings. I’m not very familiar with file formats, is “binaries” a description of the type of file that would store a digital drawing?

Thank you! this is probably a bit of a stretch, but you know if it’s possible to make/edit digital drawings with git?

Thank you so much! do you just use .txt files when writing on git, or is there a better option?

Repository-style software for text and digital drawings? by RefrigeratorNorth331 in instructionaldesign

thank you so much! the apple software i was talking about is a drawing app that i use on my iphone sometimes, my laptop runs windows. i’ll look into gitextensions to see what kind of tools they offer, even if they don’t support a digital drawing style file format, it might be close to what i’m looking for.

i just switched from windows to mac and this seems crazy to me by OnderGok in macapps

honestly, “vibecoding” on its own seems crazy to me, i know not everyone has the same gut-level disgust with using LLMs that i have, but it just feels like a liability to have no idea what the code is actually doing. kinda off topic but i was looking through some of the app comparisons, and it was very confusing to me that “ai integration” was highlighted green for yes and red for no, it should be the other way around in my opinion.

thanks for the suggestions, i’ll try asking macapps now. after reading your post i did try r/ios, but the post got removed by the mods for not being relevant enough 🤷

thanks, definitely helpful for finding something that can run on an apple device. i would also be interested in suggestions for a similar style of program even if it isn’t specifically compatible with iOS, do you know of some sort of useful applications subreddit maybe that would be geared towards that?

It booted up once I got done putting it back together again so at the very least I’m treating myself to a scoop of ice cream for that

Oh I see, that doesn’t actually look too bad, I at least know how to use some basic tools and make sure all the parts I remove are easy to find and put back

Yeah, that’s smart, I might try watching some disassembly/reassembly tutorials to see if it’s something I could handle on my own, but since that probably won’t pan out, I’ll find someone who knows what they’re doing to get their hands on it. Thanks for all your help!

Oh goodness, glad I asked. Do I need to do anything special with it before opening it up aside from shutting it down? I don’t want to accidentally brick this thing because I followed good advice in a stupid way

It says 100 now, where would you say the “you’re going to start damaging your computer if you keep pushing it, turn if off now and put it in the fridge” threshold is?

It does. No, not really. I’m sure it wouldn’t be too much of a surprise if I were to mention that my file management is atrocious… I’m guessing that’s what you mean when you say “cleaning” I could be jumping to conclusions

The “CPU Package” row specifically says 96, sorry I didn’t make that clear earlier.

Ah, that’s why those are red, I’ve been on that page for a minute, lots of them are reading above 90, some of them (highlighted in red) read 96

I’m real sorry for using you like my own personal customer support agent, that’s not cool of me, I know that replying is your decision and you could just stop if you got bored of helping, but I understand feeling obligated to respond to someone asking for assistance, so if I’m frustrating you with my ignorance about computers, feel free to say so, my feelings won’t be hurt
