Yeah, I'd never taken it upon myself to figure out the steps for your Chud. But finally...  Thank you, Notepad++!
And thanks for putting it on your board!

Over the course of my life (before I retired) I worked for 5 companies where I was involved in software development. In 4 companies I was the software team - entirely on my own. Most of the work was in plain old C for embedded systems, but there was some C# as well. In the other company I was 50% of the two man software team. So version control was never a big issue and I developed my own VC techniques, with one exception where our two man team used Microsoft version control software (what was it called again?).
Now that I am retired I try to keep an active brain by trying to keep up with developments in the software field. Lately I started to learn Java. Not Javascript (sissy stuff  ). So I am redoing a C# project that took me several years to completely develop, in Java. Then, a week ago Amazon sent me one of their nuisance adds for a book covering Git for Windows. My curiosity got the better of me and I bought the Kindle version for around $3. I worked through the book in a day (only some 160 pages) and found it absolutely all you need to learn Git for Windows if you are a total beginner. The book is "A Practical Guide to Git and GitHub for Windows Users" by Roberto Vormittag.
So I restarted my project, doing Git version control as I went along. Java, Git and I are getting along like a house on fire!
What did I do to deserve all this fun? It makes one feel a little guilty!
Get me coffee and no one gets hurt!

Honestly I started using git before I had the CLI memorized. I just used guis and stuff like the Visual studio plugin. I didn't even get good with the CLI until I was using it a lot from linux, but the web interface *almost* makes it pointless.
That is to say, it gets a huge thumbs up from me for having so many ways to interact with it, many of them great.

There’s an official Git book called Pro Git, and it’s available for free on the Git website.

A book about a mathematician who discovers a theorem...
Birth of a Theorem: A Mathematical Adventure: Villani, Cédric, DeBevoise, Malcolm[^]
Author is winner of coveted and honored Fields Medal in Mathematics.
Finally, Code Reviews seem like huge fun now. I also like to watch ice melt at room temperature or at other times I like watching paint dry, if it's not too fast.
The thing that will draw you in is the regularity for the inhomogeneous Boltzmann. And, I'm not talking about modulo minimal regularity bounds. I'm talking about unconditional and not even in a perturbative framework.

Hey... see the positive side... you won't need to take meds for insomnia problems from now on...

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
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.

Reminds me of a book I used to have about abstract algebras. Every time I was feeling too smart for solving a really difficult problem, I would read a page from it and go: "Nah, still dumb!"

That's hilarious. Really made me laugh out loud, because I have a book like that too and I'm just going through my annual reading of it (I only read about 2 pages of it every year).
It's Donald Knuth's The Art of Computer Programming[^].
I was really motivated to get through a lot of it this year and then I got to the bottom of the 3rd page or so...
Knuth said: Algorithm E may, for example, be formalized in these terms as follows: Let Q be the set of all singletons (n), all ordered pairs (m, n), and all ordered quadruples (m, n, r, 1), (m, n, r, 2), and (m, n, p, 3), where m, n, and p are positive integers and r is a nonnegative integer. Let I be the subset of all pairs (m, n) and let Ω be the subset of all singletons (n). Let f be defined as follows:

See the citizen who lives in the luxury of a late stage capitalist society, where it is so decadent that folks like him can cast off reality itself, and make their bubble one of their own design without any real repercussions, like dying at work because his job is dangerous and he's so detached. He doesn't need to worry about that because people he hates that came before him made sure he wouldn't have to. Alternative facts are fine, they don't get in the way of eating, not anymore.
Our forebearers spoiled us, and this citizen is what that looks like. His bubble is the ultimate luxury item. Completely impractical to the point of hamstringing the wearer, its only purpose is status and vanity. It doesn't even make him happy.
We've given various names to this over the years, idolatry, false consciousness, magical thinking, but it's always dangerous.
