I find the use of “she” throughout your site when referring to an automated code process to be fairly strange. I suspect you’re trying to add levity and personality, but it’s an odd thing to assign gender to. Perhaps consider replacing those with “it”?

The author is making a joke about ‘gnu’.

If you give it a try and have any feedback, please do let me know via GitHub.

At the risk of pumping my own project, and recognizing that this is an untested methodology, I've just recently created this project to do exactly that:
https://github.com/senorprogrammer/til
I spend most of my day in the command line, so having a fast, simple way to capture things is the goal.

As a Canadian, no. It is clearly tongue-in-cheek and humorous.

Windows support is being tracked in issue #103 on GitHub. People have had success building from source. Automated Windows builds currently fail for reasons unknown.

I agree. There's an open issue for this in the `wtfdocs` repo. If you have any thoughts on what's causing it, please drop a message in there.

I've deleted the 'max-scale' and 'user-scalable' values from the meta tag. Let me know if that helps at all.

Thanks for this comment. I think you might have just solved issue #33 in the wtfdocs repo.

Feel free to open an issue on it. CalDAV is a great idea.

The underlying libraries WTF is built upon use colour strings to define colours, so WTF does too.
But this is a cool idea. Issue #546 has been opened for this.

It's highly likely this won't work as-is, unfortunately. Docker support is "experimental" at best and a lot more effort needs to be put into the Dockerfile.

If you have thoughts on this, I'd love to hear your use-case. Issue #517 is specifically about this topic.

It was added because I have co-workers in five different timezones and servers that use UTC. It's handy to have that info at a glance.

Part of the site's default template. Bug #47 in the wtfdocs repo has been opened for this.

A long time ago I made a gem that does pretty much this: https://github.com/senorprogrammer/pil
If you want this functionality, I recommend not using it as-is, given the security vuln GitHub is currently reporting. Rather, anyone has my permission to copy the code verbatim into your project. It's a pretty simple gem.

It's common to look back in life and see that what was once a deliberate action was in fact a mistake. Not a mistake in the sense of an accidental occurrence, but in the sense that if one could do it over again, one would do it differently.
That's how the term "mistake" is used in this article.
senorprogrammer | 7 years ago | on: Welding breakthrough could transform manufacturing
No, the terms picosecond and micron are pretty integral to the process. Imagine using a propane torch to heat up the side of a single brick in an apartment building wall for a few seconds. The temperature change in that brick, considerable compared to all the others, will have effectively no impact on the building itself.

You just described nearly everyone I went to university with.

Those then serve as an excellent roadmap for anyone who wants to contribute, but my projects are built for me and I work on the parts I want and need.
I also use GH automation to auto-close issues after a year. If no one cares enough to implement the change in a year, no one cares.
Your project is yours, feel free to ignore everyone else.
I also highly recommend watching this talk by Pieter Hintjens a couple of times. It is brilliant https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=uzxcILudFWM
