This looks very interesting! I hope that maybe this project can include a “refactoring parser”, that is, for each token in the parse tree, store where in the source code file that token originated from. Also, white space and comments have w

How is this supposed to work? How would they charge people driving into certain parts of the city? Something like EZ-Pass at every traffic light?

JetBrains IDEs are very good indeed, and if they (or VSCode) work for you, you should use them. There's some features in these IDEs that are better than what's available with vim/tmux, and the other way around. In either case

Vim startup should be nearly instantaneous (<<1sec). If it’s not, something is broken. You can do `vim --startuptime profile.log` to find out what’s going wrong.

IDE’s don’t run in terminals, and the main benefits of terminals are consistency, power, and speed. Plus, at least in scientific computing, you generally have to develop and deploy code on remote workstations or HPC clusters, so an SSH-base

There's the nbval plugin for pytest. https://nbval.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ I've used that in one of my packages ( https://github.com/qucontrol/krotov ) to verify example notebooks o

It's important to realize that lab notebooks (in professonal academic research labs) are quasi-legal documents with specific requirements, in that they must document every modification made to an experimental setup, and every measureme

True! That's why there's enterprise certificates to make the process easier. Facebook just shouldn't have abused theirs for nefarious purposes!

It's not the only way to run internal apps: They can also install them through XCode. Also, the revokation was in no way arbitrary, but due to a grave violation of the terms under which the certificate was obtained.

> Up to a few years ago, I found often myself in discussions with colleagues on the benefits of Fortran vs. less horrible languages such as C. In the context of numerics, C is in no way a "less horrible language" than Fortran.

It's the only sensible choice for a numerical programming language

Are the "PRO" badges that have been showing up on Github profiles today in any way related to this?

As a theoretical physicist, the iPad can handle work-related tasks that the MacBook cannot (and vice versa). The unique iPad features mostly center around the Pencil: annotating papers, and doing "pen-and-paper" math, except that

It implements an incremental reading system (which is built in to SM, but not Anki), including the ability to generate Anki flash cards.

I absolutely prefer to have a larger external screen, too. But if I'm traveling, and the choice is between my 13 inch Macbook Pro, or the 12.9 inch iPad Pro, I usually choose the iPad. With Blink in full screen, it's basically the

That's (almost) the same screen size as the 12.9 inch iPad Pro, no?

In particular with Blink, the app will actually recognize the monitor as a second screen, and use it at full resolution (as opposed to mirroring the normal iPad screen). With tmux, this means you can arrange as many horizontal and vertical

I think the connection is already there! You can access iSH files in the Files app and move them freely to and from iCloud.

This is so, so close to allow me to run a full local vim (with the necessary external tools, like python and git). The only thing I found that was a dealbreaker was the lack of unicode support ( https://github.com/tbodt/

Are you aware of Blink's option to map caps-lock to escape?

The last one in that thread is 11 minutes. And, I just did `time conda create -n test -y anaconda pytest-cov pytest-xdist coverage sphinx_rtd_theme flake8` on my Macbook, and it clocked in at 36 minutes! Probably, this is affected by also h

Yeah, this is becoming a real problem. This didn't use to happen, but now conda is slow to the point of being unusable if you need to create environments a lot (like during testing)

by goerz 8y ago
Although conda is also getting slower and slower, and now routinely spends 5-20 minutes on dependency resolution even for trivial environments.

Would it really be POSIX-incompatible? Does the standard mandate that a filesystem can place no such restriction on top of "filenames are unencoded bytes"? If not, then it's just that tools cannot blindly assume filenames are

Thanks! That’s good to know!
