Fright of my life: ran "git commit -a -m ..." and got a ream of bizarrely-detailed C-level memory-debugging diagnostics for unexpectedly-copious "add" and "del" operations; panicked for a moment until I realized I'd #typo'd "git" as "dig".
!TIL what dig's "-m" option of does ☺ -

#TIL The famous author H.G. Wells (War of the words, The Timemashine) published a book called 'Little Wars' in 1913.
This was the first printed ruleset for a tabletop wargame with miniatures ever and makes Wells the grandfather of games like Warhammer and BattleTech.At the internet archive they have a nice scan of 'Little Wars':

!TIL: „Kurzfristige Beschäftigung“ ist für Arbeitgeber gar nicht so kompliziert, wie ich das erst verstanden habe. Person finden, bei der Minijob-Zentrale anmelden, die kümmern sich quasi um den restlichen Papierkram. -

@musicman #TIL. Those are the kinds of files that one usually creates by accident, then one must figure out how to invoke `rm` in a way that removes (only) that file. -

There’s a movie coming out about the largest hostage crisis that ever happened on US soil. It happened 28 years ago, 1991-04-04, in an unincorporated #Sac community. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1991_Sacramento_hostage_crisis
Weirdly, I don’t remember anything about this, but it would likely have been all over the news. I’m marking it. #TIL for that reason. -

#TIL (3) In the scenario where you have deleted an obsolete gpg key from your keyring, checking to see it it has gone with gpg --list-keys <dead_key_id> might be unwise because you'll get a trustdb rebuild which might be very slow.

#TIL (2) If you use gpg and someone on your keyring with two keys has merged them, you might need to delete the old key with gpg --delete-keys <key_id>
If you don't Enigmail might keep using the old 'dead' key to encrypt mail to them when you don't want it to. -

#TIL (1) If you use gpg and you've been to a key signing event at some point and have a lot of keys on your keyring, running gpg --refresh-keys can take a very very long time. Also, if you haven't been managing your (bloated?) keyring regularly there'll be even more work to do.
