Do we actually need text editing support all conceivable edge cases? I guess I don't care how the cursor behaves as long as it's mostly predictable and consistent. Users would adapt, I must not use or care about skinned emojis muc

The Long Road to War, a recent documentary about ww1 opened my eyes regarding geopolitics. The gist is that conflict was bound to happen, the spark that started was just the first domino to fall to set everything in motion. The way the lea

I hate python's syntax, it might be less cluttered but it's a pain to refactor or play around, because a lot of times you have to re-indent everything before it will work again. And then I also tend to find it harder to find the e
