That is my observation. I have Ergodox, Planck and X-Bows, all of them are non-staggered. I noticed that I had an urge to adjust either keyboard or my posture constantly. On the other hand I’m comfortable with a traditional staggered keyboa

It's not about the number of keystrokes, it's about the number of keystrokes pressed simultaneously - this where Vim makes a lot of difference. All that Ctrl-Alt-Shift-X stuff is what really harms hands.

Second, this particular demand of the Russian authorities wasn't obviously unconstitutional, as they referred to a law that restricts campaigning after people start casting their votes. The problem is that according to the recent fed

I think they don’t want to admit such a big security breach publicly. At some extent privacy is their business.

Yes they can do it right now, but that would be illegal and couldn’t be used for any good. Now they make it legal- that’s the difference.

It could have been Go and Java programmer trying to understand it. Or it could have been some clumsy tool written in node which Go programmer finds hard to read and understand. Clojure's main advantage is that you can you can learn it

I ask myself is the type system that great if you need to write times more LOC just for the sake of it? More lines lead to more bugs exponentially. As for the spec - the benefit of it is that you are not forced to add it everywhere. You can

I think Apple software is popular not because it's own value and features, but because: 1. It's free 2. It's preinstalled 3. It's well integrated I don't think I'd use Mail, iMessage, Safari or Preview if it wa

It offers REPL, great hot reloading, a small set of immutable data structures, and a great set of carefully architectured core library functions to work with those data structures. Also because of immutable data structures it has a very cle

I think if you are a lawful citizen, appear with a lawyer and make the case public - you won't worth the effort anyway.

My point was that all law enforcement agents across the world are same at their core. They are very good at putting pressure on people and exercising people's bounds. So, I think, making things public, defending your rights actively an

I agree, the plugin ecosystem is far from VSCode. I usually use Sublime/VSCode as a lightweight editor to learn new languages and technologies and VSCode plugins for Haskell/Clojure/etc are far ahead of Sublime. I don't

I do google "how to delete a line" for every new editor because they are different everywhere and work in different ways. Should I put a cursor at the start of a line to delete it or I can delete from any place? Etc.
