Sure, but there's no .rb ccTLD, and since 4-, 5-, and 6- letter gTLDs exist, we could certainly have Kickstarter campaigns for .php, .html, .css, .perl, etc. I guess .NET hackers are screwed though.

I agree. Further, regarding this bit from the "Why?" section of the README: > Okay, this is kind of a vanity TLD, but we freaking build the web every day... Shouldn't we have a TLD that JS hackers control? Why are "JS hackers" being ta

I've been using those more and more recently and have noticed a couple interesting things to be aware of. First, Vim interprets a dash character immediately preceding the number as a negative sign. (In playing around a bit I suspect this

The last time I used AIX (I believe it was 5.3), it had old-school vi on it. I would bet this is true of newer revisions of AIX, as well as other commercial UNIX(tm) systems. I would also not be surprised to learn that some/most of the BS

WP has an image of it[1] and states that it is a Potassium Chloride factory at Lop Lake[2]. It's not visible on Bing Maps[3], so perhaps it's relatively new. [1]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Lop_Nur,_Xinjiang,_China.... [2]: http

Marco talked about Android support on his 5by5 podcast "Build and Analyze" sometime over the summer I think. I don't recall if it was the focus of the episode or just a side-topic. I believe at that time he had concluded that it wasn't wo

'find' is an interesting animal: it* really only has a handful of traditional option parameters, and these are of the single-dash-single-letter variety. The single-dash-word parameters are all part of its expression language for selecting

Sure, perhaps 2% of the US as measured by some collection of large, publically facing websites. Now try taking that measurement again within the walls of a set of large corporations. This becomes particularly relevant if you're developing a

Just to throw in another $0.02... I use bufexplorer[1]. There's something about minbufexpl's list that seems unappealing to me when it spans multiple lines. I also have CTRL-j/CTRL-k mapped to :bnext/:bprev. As for closing a buffer, my m
