   LET ME JUST SAY, a pox on these things that depend on VSCode. I don't use VSCode, I never have, and I don't anticipate doing so any time soon for coding, much less taking notes. EDIT: I did not say a pox on such applications; on t

   The right to say what you will is absolute, and protected from the federal government by the first amendment. However, nothing protects you from the consequences of harmful speech, and those consequences do not approximate a violation of

    Malpractice insurance and touchy premiums, fuck up, and you can't afford to be a cop and a dept can't afford to hire you.

    Don't underestimate the usefulness of basic instrumentation with print statements; it's just a simple (simplest?) form of logging.

    I'd love to use pycharm, but my current project involves about 85% work on a raspi 4 and while it is quite impressive in many respects, it's just a little less than what pycharm requires in terms of resources.

    This extension (Memex) flies wide of the mark. I won't elaborate beyond saying that as a tool it suffers technically from the constraints imposed by the operational context of browser extensions and as a business enterprise it's f

    There used to be java applet embedded in altavista.com's website that could be run against search results. It would do semantic processing on the results and present a list of generated terms, each with a checkbox. Checking a box would
