There's a HN clone that ranks stories higher if they have less comments. More comments can just mean more controversial.

FZF with `:Buffers` gives you a fuzzy search on your buffers. Plus there's unimpaired which gives `[b` and `]b`. I did try to get tabbing through buffers working and yours looks like a good solution, but I find my buffers are rarely ne

I agree that you can't just use all the old keys otherwise you'll never learn. But what I am looking for is kind of a translation guide from ST to Vim. For Vim learners I really think that GVim is a great tool because eg it doesn&

So they still do indie bundles, they still do pay what you want pricing, they still do DRM free, they still have support for charities. But on top of that they've added a lot of sales that breaks any of those principles. I think they d

I could only see a therapist in the UK because my job's private medical insurance gave me £1500/year to spend. Those I knew who tried to get help on the NHS were just prescribed drugs by their doctor without being referred to a ps

I don't see as the US as being monsters, just that it seems very very important to you. I spent a couple of years in the air cadets (youth version of the air force) and I fired rifles there. I can see reasons for it in the military. Yo

Bare in mind what the post talks about that for some people, telling them to go running just makes them feel worse because they can't even get up the energy to get off the sofa. I think it depends on how deep down the hole you are, plu

This is the same Zac Holman who was fired from GitHub [0] when he was having tough times. It's great how open he is about it. I'm waiting until we see going to the doctor to talk about pain in your brain the same as going to talk

As a Brit, I can't explain quite how foreign this logic is. It just blows my mind that people can think like this. Most American logic and way of life is remarkably similar. I feel like I understand the American way of life more than s

This is the same reason why bees create a hexagonal honeycomb and also I think the reasoning for the structure in a fly's eye.

All of Tim Pope's plugins are brilliant. One that saved me a ton of pain was his Obsession plugin which stores sessions that don't conflict as much with other plugins.

I kind of felt the same way about Vim. I was very happy with Sublime. I still am and most of what I've done with Vim is replicate the functionality from ST. If you're not curious enough to dive in full time then stay with ST. I ha

GVim has the shortcuts next to each of the menu items. GVim is the most newbie friendly environment which you can wean yourself off of once you're comfortable using Vim's commands.

It is super hard because everything you're used to from your regular editor or browser commands don't apply. So all your muscle memory is useless. That might sound like it's easy to overcome but it's not and it's su

Yeah definitely, I regarded it as a failure to fall back to GVim. But my sanity and productivity was at stake. I did spend a lot of time in Vim in DOS and loved the fact that it was even possible to do something productive there. But I just

As far as I know, the Ubuntu shell still uses the console. There is indeed highlighting but basically only 8 colours that are dubiously split to make 16. A recent Windows update was supposed to give 256 colours but I tried and couldn't

Both powershell and the dos prompt still go through the console. It's quite amazing to have Vim running in a native Windows prompt but when you use it full time the little things start to get to you.

All these tutorials are like taking beginner French. If you want to learn French live in France. If you want to learn Vim you have to live in it. Use it for your development full time. Then over time you start to see it's power. For me
