As mentioned before, manual edits can be made at that point. However I'll add that for this use case, a tool integrated in your editor will often be more adapted to manual staging. I have Tim Pope's vim-fugitive plugin in mind whi

If I understand the article, it's the slow waves that have the strong correlation, and those are described as being around one per second. Fifty milliseconds is then around a tenth of the half period, so that does implies a rather impo

My first mobile data plan had 200MB of data + unlimited Facebook usage. This was in France around 2011. It now seems weird with all the net neutrality talks (and vastly improved mobile data plans thanks to the push from Free), but it seemed

This is just a specific model of how people act you just conjured up in your head. People in many situations try heroin all the time, whether or not it seems coherent.

Sorry, "this comment" referred to itself, I did not post the parent comment. The conversation should not be hidden, just this barely useful meta comment.

Please do ! I'll gladly remove this comment if you give an outline to your argument.

If the idea behind these techniques is to combat the natural response of hiding the problems and actively reckoning them, your argument doesn't seem to offer a rebuttal of that counter-intuitive proposal, you're just saying it&#x2

Well I'm not an expert in the domain but I'd wager there's models for what happiness is, from which you can determine how to measure that. For example if you thinks it's a variable composed of self-appreciation and appre

And that is proof of what ? That some forms of mindfulness can overcome some physical or mental stimuli ? I think this can cause an increase in self-destructive behaviour as much as affirmative ones (as your example shows). Why would that b

by jgtrosh 9y ago
That seems to me like little more than an appeal to tradition. I suppose the argument goes “if Buddhists didn't benefit from their mindfulness, Buddhism wouldn't have lasted so long” ? That hardly seems falsifiable because it reli

For old-school clients that perform very well in most regards, have you tried Claws Mail or Mutt ?

How about TUI clients like mutt which are made in curses ?

All I can think of is adding text into whitespace preceding alignment; but that's not such a common operation (at least not in my daily usage).

Actually, A: is not valid with the default compose bindings (it is however valid with vim digraphs). In general umlauts or trémas are inserted with the double quote (A").

Have you tried swiping keyboards ? I don't think it's for everyone, there's only a few that do it well, and afaik none open-source which does it all (though I believe the functionality is in development for ASK); however I fi

Haven't used it in a while, but I think this public should also take a look at TeXmacs. I've long stopped caring about anything WYSIWYG but that software seemed to me to strike a very well designed balance between WYSIWYG/fas

I think this is remnants of the Windows/MacOS holy wars that keep people focused on the wrong things, while making the interesting approaches seem scary. Talking about the differences between “traditional” desktop environments seems mi

Hello, you mention it as a serious problem. I agree and I think it's good to be aware of it. I don't believe it should be up to the browser to deal with tabs. I don't actually believe tabs are a particularly good representa
