I regularly VPN into work from my home and experience 200ms+ delays quite frequently. In my experience, that delay in updating the screen to reflect my typing is not particularly problematic.

Had the same issue with C-x C-c; I remapped mine to C-x C-c C-t because it worked for me as a mnemonic (assuming a "soft c"): "ex-s-t" => "eckst" => "exit"). Major productivity boost!

I rather interpret it as "If you do a good job with simple tools you'll be given opportunities." (I'm interpreting the parent post to be implying that the simpler, solid hire is the one who is no longer there because the

Today I learned why the bottoms of the staircases in the building where I work look like they've been sprayed with porridge. Thank you!!! (I had assumed it was insulation of some kind but could not figure out why they'd put it

Yes, I am OK. In the micro, immediate term I'm a little burned out: The summer was fantastic, but draining; I have 4 weeks of PTO and I used most of it within a two-month period on 4 different trips with my family. It was tough to ma

I'm a little confused about their apparent implication that they have to single step all the way to the point that they want to inspect. Maybe older debuggers made you do this? But today, breakpoints are useful and seem to be widely

Tried again just now to use Remote File access from my Windows desktop to my Linux (Ubuntu) cloud VM. I'm using Helm, and if I do C-x C-f (helm-find-file) and then type /ssh:me@remote: it opens a new buffer called "C:/s

Because I can. I've tried TRAMP a few different times in the past and, for whatever reason, I bounced off of it pretty hard every time. They were long enough ago that I can't remember what went wrong, but I have a pretty deep an

TIL! Thanks for pointing this out; it makes me feel much better than my previous assumption that all these people running around proclaiming the greatness of CL were just _okay_ with the allcaps!

I believe there is another case, very similar (also involving a closed loop): If you pass a (properly oriented) magnet through or even across the opening of such a loop, an electrical current will flow around the loop (while the rest of the

Pedant that I am, I would like to point out that 120 is not a "normal" IQ. The test is scored such that 100 represents the median IQ, with 85-115 being within one standard deviation of that median. This means that less than abou

+1 for Alex French Guy Cooking (mentioned in sibling comment). I like his method of chopping onions; most of the onions I chop don't need to look particularly pretty, so it's great. Also, You Suck At Cooking https://ww

I'd like to put in a plug for Finex cast iron. They're milled smooth on the bottom which I prefer to the finish on the Lodge pan that I have. Regardless, +1 for cast iron!

The ability to use Emacs with a decent degree of proficiency. I find its text navigation abilities beyond compare. This is huge for me since I write software and and the creation of software generally involves a lot of text manipulation.

I think it's more that I totally misinterpreted the data. For some reason I assumed it was the number of students from each group that scored above some threshold, rather than the average score of that group. My calculations are compl
