My personal take: I like using the keyboard. Lazygit works very smoothly with the keyboard, of course. I tried the git thing that’s part of vscode and it really wants me to click. It is theoretically possible to get by without, but it’s cum

I use it to have hybrid modifier and regular keys: if I hold down caps lock like a modifier key and strike another key then it behaves like control. If I tap caps lock like I would a letter key then it behaves like escape. Return is another

They don’t say whether the author knew the grades when selecting the images. They also don’t say whether the jurors knew the grades. As long as they didn’t know I doubt that it had an impact on the study. You could skew the results if you k

One idea: Maybe your shell functions do not all need to be shell functions, maybe they can be shell scripts instead. Put them in ~/bin, then you can use them regardless of the shell you're using. Of course, if the shell function o
