Yeah, it's a fair point. Per the zig writeup, the plan / hope for this use case is an editor command that will quickly add in all the "_ = unused" statements, which should take it down to very-small annoyance. (From my u

Yep, defnly matches my experience as a dirt-poor high-school dropout. SAT saved me. It's very sad to me to see these developments.

I like it, both on computer and phone. It makes the device feel more organic. Also, on the computer, I enjoy having somewhere I can hide the mouse pointer, if I don't want to see it.

Along those lines, how about something like the NFL, which asks you risk serious injury for entertainment. A coal miner. A race car driver. And in fact, a porn star, who IS required to do sex acts as part of the job. I think to me what the

Sure, but we still put limits on what a company can require. They can't say, hey, you have to give your boss a handjob every Wednesday, don't like it, go work somewhere else! We don't think of that as kosher. If you , person

Very interesting, thanks! Tangential, but I definitely disagree w/ the blog post about the value of multiple cursors vs just macros and rectangle edits, tho. Multiple cursors are just so much easier to work with and get right. You'

Yes, exactly. You should be able to show your own input immediately. For others input, you can't tell the difference between human lag and network lag, provided the network lag is reasonably low (which it will be unless you have a very

As looooong time user(/addict) of emacs, probably my two biggest complaints are slowness and bugginess. So I find an absolute focus on speed to be quite appealing. I 100% agree with their philosophical positions: An editor should alway

I don't know, when they were on Intel they went out of their way to support dual-booting with Windows. Maybe if 20XX really does become year the "year of desktop on linux" they'll start to get worried? But for now it see

I was wondering that too. I think ideally you would have a 1-1 video chat with someone. But at such a big, 900 employee, layoff, maybe that wasn't easy to do. I think the CEOs affect on the call made it worse. It was very strange to he

Thanks for the response! I was more just curious about future possibilities vs immediate practicle use. git-lfs just offloads the storage of the large binaries to a remote site, and then downloads on demand. If you have a lot of binary asse
