You might have misunderstood what I meant by "clean up before the PR." None of the temp commits should end up in the main branch, where people would be bisecting.

Line the other commenter said, there's nothing wrong with committing temp/untested code to a feature branch as long as you clean it up before the PR.
OP: asks for advice about IRC
just_another_person: only stupid and lazy people use IRC
...
just_another_person: why doesn't anyone appreciate how helpful I am?
Quoting my previous comment:
Why move an entire community to matrix if IRC works fine?
In other words, why "fix" it (and risk fragmenting the community) if it ain't broke?
If you still don't understand why people use IRC then we clearly didn't make the same point, and you misunderstood mine.
People still use it for the same reason we use email... Why move an entire community to matrix if IRC works fine? Anyone who wants to use matrix can set up a bridge, anyway. And I wouldn't consider discord a good alternative.
Can't recommend this enough. I found a lightly used steelcase leap v1 on Craigslist for $120 (one owner). It was the same price as what I paid for a new EZBoy office chair from Costco, but the EZBoy started falling apart after less than a year. This Steelcase is over 15 years old and it looks and feels better than the other chair did when it was new. My back pain also went away when I got it, but I got a new mattress around the same time so it was probably a combination of the two... I do sit at my desk for 10+ hours a day, though.
There are other similar chairs (eg. Herman Miller Aeron), and while I hate to recommend reddit, I haven't found a better source for info on second hand high-end office chairs. If you're considering a new office chair and suffer from back pain (sorry OP, I know you aren't looking for a new chair), consider a higher-end used chair.
Yeah, hard to tell without the /s unfortunately.
I write C++ professionally. Saying it's a skill issue doesn't solve the problem. If a dev with 15+ years of experience still isn't writing memory-safe C++ (ie. some of the people I work with), they're not going to learn now.
And if you're a project manager and you choose to use C++ because your team says they like the challenge then you should be fired.
Of course none of this applies to hobby projects...
I mean, that's just my interpretation. I don't think it's a stretch though, switching to memory safe languages like rust has been pretty big recently.
How did you interpret the comic?
The unicyclist on the left is saying the bicyclist is only riding a bike because they don't have enough skill for a unicycle. The unicyclist on the right is saying they can't learn to ride a bike because they've spent too much of their life riding a unicycle. It's a dig at people who don't want to switch to memory-safe languages like rust.

It's short for "expatriate." I'm not saying it isn't used in the way you described, but that's not the original meaning.
