Ref. to "I didn't even consider that Codidact allows case-sensitive tags until very recently." - If you write an existing tag using a different case, Codidact will not create a new tag, but use the existing one (i.e. case insensitive search and match).

A: Tag creation/deletion criteria for Software Development? Yes, but with some notes I think this a good idea, but we will need to provide more details and agree on some details. > 1. A tag must be named appropriately, considering Tag naming guidelines. I have mixed feelings about using uppercase in the tag names. I am inclined to switch to using th... (more) |

Ref. to "package managers install files in system locations" - this is not clear if this is supposed to be a feature of package managers in general or the Python ones.

A: Why is git merge from rather than to? Another reason could be to allow to perform the merge without auto commit and no fast-forward: ```bash git merge thebranch --no-commit --no-ff ``` This allows reviewing the merged changes before they are committed. (more) |

A: On self-answered questions, is it inappropriate to mark my own answer "Works for me" immediately? I don't think it is inappropriate for someone to mark their own answer "Works for me" on self-answered questions, but it feels a little bit redundant since the answer is expected to work for the poster.

The only answer provided to the referenced SO question suggests that disabling the element that currently has the focus is most likely undefined and various user agents might treat it differently.

| Question | — |
Should we disallow ChatGPT-User crawler (and others) from scraping Software Codidact? Stack Overflow has recently announced OverflowAI and I think this video summarises pretty well this. The main drawback is that the users are less incentivized to put effort into answering questions and have this effort being fed into SO's LLM. I am wondering if it makes sense to start blocking kno... (more) |

Ref. to " I don't like to type a long URL software.codidact.com every time to view the front page." - this should not be an issue with modern browsers which (by default) store the URL history and use it to provide URL autocompletion. (more) |

Is `value = "["SCD"]["CL0"]"` valid syntax in Python? It looks like those double quotes are not escaped.

localStorage is typically handled similarly to other "side effects" (e.g. HTTP calls) and the operations related to it are handled outside of the reducer functions (e.g. middlwares). [createListenerMiddleware](https://redux-toolkit.js.org/api/createListenerMiddleware) seems up to do this. (more) |

I have experience working with ngrx (an Angular similar approach) and I have noticed that your reducer functions mutate de state. AFAIK, the reducer functions should be pure and one typically returns the new state (clone initial state + make changes + return).
For example `

Transferring such content is a great idea. I am wondering if it makes sense to split in Q&As for each specific error/case.
Pros:
- an answer is more to the point and does not mix somewhat unrelated errors/issues
- easier to link to the answer in case of duplicate questions
Cons:
- requires... (more) |

Under normal circumstances, simply defining a branch would do the job (I am using a different branch anyway).
It is the actual switch time between the branches that's killing me. Switching from the upgrade branch to the "business as usual" branch means running `npm install` and `npm start` which ... (more) |

A: Self answered questions about an unclear quickstart Yes Quick starting with an API is definitely ontopic and especially helpful for newbies who struggle to understand the "spirit" of that API.
