Is that really an issue? When you rebase, git automatically figures out that you've cherry-picked something and will skip it. I will occasionally chery-pick something from master, do my work etc. Before making my PR, I'll rebase a

Yes, the first, and sure! So the reason tabs are great in vim (and emacs, and you can kinda do the same with kakoune) is because they are collections of windows (which are views of buffers). Splits are the main thing. Imagine we have 3 file

So you will find nothing intuitive in vim until you grok vim[0]. If you want to learn vim, you should accept that as soon as possible. Things are the way they are because they've been that way forever. Once you learn the keys for certa

I wish I could delete my comment to hide my stupidity. For some reason I was thinking about springs despite reading and typing solenoid. You are of course 100% correct and unfortunately it's too late for me to hide my shame.

I'm now staying in a condo in Bangkok that is like that. Even if I wanted to cook, it would be extremely inconvenient. There's just enough tabletop area for one of the following: coffee machine, rice cooker, portable stove, dish r

I'm guessing it would be easier (assuming you trained it on that keyboard), because each solenoid would be fairly unique due to manufacturing tolerances. Just my gut feeling, I have no data to back it up.

You are not meant to bottom out on mechanical switches, you press them until the switch actuates and then stop pressing. The advantage is that if you keep pressing a little bit after it actuates, you don't hit a hard wall. The travel d

I guess the biggest problem/downside/flaw with this is that you wait for a response from the backend to update the UI. Which is mostly fine, but I've come to expect either a round trip to the server, or instantaneous updates.
