In all honesty, I'd mostly prefer a paper OS map to all alternatives all other things being equal(weather/space/etc). My comment was largely from a place of love, it is the only reason I've used enough to be annoyed abo

Rose-tinted nostalgia surely? OS map styling is beautiful, but folding maps is the work of devils. You must remember trying to pin sections down so you could see across the paper splits caused by the pure evilness that is folding. It is

Anecdote time: I attended a Haskell event at MSR some fifteen years ago, and one of my overwhelming memories is how approachable and friendly SPJ is. I had some pretty stupid questions around the topic he was presenting(STM), and he answer

From the manual(:h tab-page-intro): "Tabs are also a nice way to edit a buffer temporarily without changing the current window layout. Open a new tab page, do whatever you want to do and close the tab page." Therefore a built-in

One of the HN threads I'm assuming they're referring to is the recent discussion of strict tables¹, which reads like the other side of this document. It may be interesting to read the comments on the other side directly. Although

Ick, my bad. My toplevel comment could - and should - have been far more constructive. The updated tagline in the repo is a big improvement, good work!

Frankly, if you're happy with Google Calendar just use that. They really are very different, I'd compare remind more to working with the Google Calendar API. You get to control remind with other tools if that suits you, but you a

A little warning in the README that it is going to send your file to GitHub might be prudent. I'm sure I'm not the only one who would be expecting it to be rendering the markdown locally.

I'm a huge fan of remind, and have a `rem -q` display in every new terminal window I open. remind can appear incredibly daunting given how long the documentation is, but it can slowly grow with you. If you're new to it I'd r

A bunch of the better defaults mentioned are already handled by vim since v8(:h defaults.vim), but beyond that using Tim Pope's vim-sensible¹ feels like it may be a better starting point. The repo's issues also contain some real

I suspect if I had to answer as many questions/rants about type strictness as the authors do I'd probably choose much stronger language. It definitely wasn't intended, but I guess my earlier comment could be read as the ten-

One way which isn't great, but an option nonetheless… The zsh parser is happy with that form: $ zsh -c '< <(echo hi) while read a; do echo "got $a"; done' got hi My position isn't that it is

If you're a zsh user it offers a version of something like xargs in zargs¹. As the documentation shows it can be really quite powerful in part because of zsh's excellent globbing facilities, and I think without that support it wo

I wouldn't go as far as to say I'm aghast at the lax typing¹, but I look forward to this change hitting a release. Adding some sugary support for a strict DATETIME type in a future release would tick every box I want from sqlite.
