I would say autohotkey is far superior to python on windows. The runtime comes with everything you need, no need to install/manage external dependencies. For example, I copy-pasted a 324 line snippet from the forums ( https:/&#x2F

What cmd-key shortcuts are you thinking of? FWIW every apple filepicker window I come across I can utilise the following shortcuts consistently, which is very nice: Cmd-Shift-A: Open Applications folder Cmd-Shift-H: Open Home folder Cmd-Shi

Yeah homebrew does that remote lookup thing when I try to complete `brew install xx<TAB>`. Because of the delay, it's not a good way to discover packages at all especially if the package name has an unexpected prefix that causes

I don't know if overprovisioning servers to counter traffic spikes is over engineering, the mental model is pretty simple. May not be as cost effective or infinitely scalable, but it's simpler to wrap your head around.

:tabedit % will do that in vim. :tabclose to close the tab when you're done.

I know that at least since El Capitan there was already the 'cut and paste' built in, you just have to Cmd-Opt-V instead of Cmd-V after Cmd-C-ing a file. Slightly different paradigm but essentially the same as Ctrl-X Ctl-V in wind

But we don't know how much of that is due to regular cars usage being much larger in volume compared to electric. Only way we'd know is if electric car usage ramps up to comparative levels, which seems quite far away given the cur

There's no problem with having an older iOS that still runs as fast as the day you bought the phone. Many people I know purposely hold off the upgrades just to retain the same speed, and are satisfied with it

There's no reason why one can't type notes the same way as well, first listening and understanding before distilling that information into a few choice sentences. I find writing better because you can freely draw on your lecture n
