This is really a great creation, please allow people to submit (and vote) plugins, count my vim-seek in as soon as that is possible! I also second the parent's suggestions, making it a social experience would be amazing and a real boon to v

Thanks Github, it's great to have your weight behind making tech more friendly to women, and spotlighting female role models so that more of the young might pursue a career in the field.

This is a great answer to all this "open up the papers" movement, and going forward a much better solution than those apps that cropped up for asking for a given research paper. If things remain open, that is. A github for papers sounds gre

I went and joined. It said it could get my pic from Facebook. Great. Then it went on to request a bunch of other stuff (including posting) all of which I denied. Fine. I come back to see my "moments" in Path pre-filled and littered with my

I was really interested in what a Mind-Book would be, and how one would go about about reviewing one such book. I was disappointed.

Relatedly, noble cause with your IDE project, here's hoping you run into wonderful things (alas, I can't code C++ and VimL serves me fine for my current extension needs)

I'd love vi keybindings to navigate the console and web inspector.

You seem to miss the point that many of those sites wouldn't have been launched in the first place if a way to make it look half-decent, fast, wasn't widely available. Making a website, especially a web app, takes some breaking inertia, if

Supposedly you can persist it with HTML5 on localStorage or the indexed browser DB.

I can't help but feel all these websites miss out on what makes Hacker News great: density of information leading to a quick scan of the zeitgeist. I just feel constrained looking at this website's frontpage.

This is sound advice, pardon the pun. Still I wonder if I should ramp up the TiVoish recorder to about an hour or so, because often these are so spontaneous in fact, almost subconsciously uttered, that it might take me more than 10 seconds

What I really could use today, is software at my computer that records my whole workday in front of it, and allows me to go just to the points where I was making sound later on, and easily extract worthy material. I explan: I often spontane

That was funny seeing this here, for a minute I thought someone had posted the now.sh from my dotfiles. But I think it's no longer there. In any case mine wasn't as thoughtful, it was just a shell script to pretty print the current time, so

You don't have to work from home, depending on where you live you can find coworking spaces from where you can telecommute instead. Maybe the company can even help with the coworking space costs, if you make it clear that it's a much better

Yeah, I think it's not only about self-deprecating humor, but as a broader approach to life, about not taking yourself seriously, ever. Those two are probably the greatest things a human being can have, and I always look for them in peers a

Perhaps it's more of an issue of simple market dynamics of demand and availability than you care to paint it? Every other kid wants to do a liberal arts major, but how many want to do math? How many americans, in fact, because most I see ar

Yes that's on the pipeline, doesn't work yet. I agree it would come in really handy on the few occasions we seek for a more common letter combination.

Well you've come off as quite the extremist shouting to the rooftops that people shouldn't try to be super efficient with vim. People who might not go out on a limb to say everyone should do it too. As for your comment on tabs and trees, so

I'm now considering extending the seek idea to moving to close-by lines, through mappings that would work like EasyMotion's w, b, e and ge but excluding the current line and working on lines above (b and ge) and below (w and e), by typing t

A lot of people who don't understand what vim is before criticizing it seem to miss the point that vim doesn't make you faster at writing code. Insert mode is a dumb text entry mode like any other, and Visual Studio and Textmate in fact hav

I have in my vimrc something I'm calling restrain.vim. In effect it allows me to rebind a double press such as jj, kk, hh and ll to do something else. That means I can only press any of these keys once, if I press a second time it does a di

I thought the `do loadManifesto' syntax was discouraged in favor of 'loadManifesto()'? I've read jashkenas say he wished that hadn't been introduced in the first place, and now I see it in his code.

the key here is Meteor; sure you can go with Jekyll and a bunch others for Rails and Node, for instance, but there is no blogging platform with momentum for folks who want to customize using their Meteor expertise. Granted it's still a youn

And while I read that I was thinking that I'd be happiest about my computer use if that kind of use accounted for all but 1% of the time. As in coding and building and writing in general--creating stuff.

The only examples readily available in the linked page are with onSomeEvent, which may have been of a special function accepting type, so that you could do what you did above was not immediately clear. "Delegates" and "C#" also strike the w

Why the hell force me into LoomScript when Lua would have given a readily available source of learned game developers? Delegates, are you kidding me? I refuse to program in a language that doesn't treat functions as first class citizens.

I don't think it's so bad as long as it's doing some ajax refresh, fetching more content. Doing a full page refresh because I accidentally scrolled over the top is, well, a bit over the top.

Can you not do most context sensitive stuff by running regexes on current and neighboring lines? That all sounds terrific, and if you get to implement these ideas on top of web technologies (or anywhere else would still be half as good) I'd

I kinda think that if you can't come up with at least one side project easily, then maybe you shouldn't really have side projects. They should be something that inspires you, so I don't really understand people who pick side projects based
