Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

And kinda does a good job with the Dog...

Unfortunately, my cat Pink never returned and attempts to catch her resulted in nothing.
I have no idea where she is now 
So, it was time to get a new cat!
Got him from the shelter yesterday and his name is Goblin (yes, the small monster from fantasy stories)
He's a lot more social than Pink, I can pet him and everything!
Yesterday he sat on the chair and on the couch, but he's currently hiding under the couch, Pink's favorite spot...
No doubt he'll get around and he'll be right at home here

Hiya Goblin!
Welcome to your new home. Please don't demolish the Star Destroyer, that took a while to make ...
Have you signed up for a CP account yet?
How old is he? He doesn't look like a kitten, so why was he in a shelter?

He's estimated to be six years old.
Nothing is known about his past.
Although further investigation learns us that (in a previous life?) he might have been a coder in China

She lives the happy life of a truly free cat - frightening bears in the woods 
And all that was for the good reason to make space for Goblin... He looks pretty... I always had soft spot for ginger cats...

What bears, what woods?
She's probably hunting birds and mice in the "polder"

Cute
I have new neighbours that have 2 cats who like spending time in my garden.
|
|
|
|

I had those until I got Nika who made short work of any invading cats
Now that she's dead the neighbor cats returned to my garden.
I'm not sure what Goblin is going to do about it yet.

good luck and best wishes for you and your new cat.

Thanks

The name gave me a chuckle when I read it, but I like it. He looks similar to my cat. Many well-wishes to you and your new companion.

His original name was Monster, but they didn't like that at the shelter so they googled for monsters and goblin was the first name that came up

my sister has one roughly the same colour - it's named 'Ziggy' on account of only having 3 legs

They say that orange cats are really quite social. Certainly mine is.

Do let us know when he starts laying on the keyboard and learning how to code!

The question is, would you notice a difference?

Kitten on the keys[^] - although a different kind of keys.
(There are recordings with a lot better sound quality, but this one is with the composer playing.)

Awesome! And great to hear the composer playing - very cool.

I just can't get myself to agree with seemingly accepted mantra that very change / ticket implementation should go through a pull request...
Please, discuss!
Would be happy to know other people's opinion!
As a side note, there are many things that I have no clue when reviewing a pull request (like the business process behind) but there is also the fact that we have a developer here who is the best at writing horrible code, and just cant seem to understand the difference between a dictionary and a list.... I mean I just give up with that guy.
I cant complain too much though, he might be the reason why I got a juicy contracting job here, I sometimes think!

The only reason we do everything via pull-request is that this enables us to keep the master from direct changes (in case that the change breaks everything apart)...
So you can not commit directly to the master, only via pull-request, however you can approve yourself... (and the pull-request automatically triggers a build, as a condition to the merge)

It's just another tool that can either be used to great effect or as unnecessary clutter. Depends on how the source control is managed.
I worked on a project where pull requests were used for a couple purposes:
1) to ensure merges into critical branches like main-development, production, and releases are explicitly done (not accidental),
2) as a form of code review where a pull request had to be accepted by at least one peer (you couldn't ok your own PR) after filling out a basic checklist (new tests pass, target branch tests still pass, merge is a fast-forward, and a couple others),
and 3) guarantee that git best practices are followed to avoid elephanting the history of the important stuff like ensuring you've merged main-dev into your branch and confirmed nothing broke before fast-forward merging back into main-dev. Fixing a merge problem on an important, shared branch, especially if it isn't caught until a couple merges later, is a nightmare.
It also serves as a discussion/checklist history so if anything does go catastrophically wrong, you not only know who requested the PR but who approved it and can educate them on what went wrong so it doesn't happen again.
You don't really get any of that with plain merges and I'd rather deal with PRs than paperwork. That's my 2 cents. Also I agree with everything Kornfeld said
