Why wouldn't I rewrite the script to avoid the cd instead? The point of `set -e` isn't to insert all those pointless guards, it's to point out "hey this might fail, so think of a way to do this that doesn't rely on

I lived there 2014-2017 in the Inner Richmond + Outer Sunset. Rent was ~$1.5k/room, getting to Financial District took about 40 minutes on express bus (2BX) or Muni metro (L). A lot of internal US migrants find SF really eye-opening: t

You should configure it to wait a second or two, instead of instantly disappearing. It happened whenever I moved the scrollwheel as far as I could, and then moved my finger to the other side of the wheel to continue scrolling. Note that scr
