   In the "average monthly sea ice extent" the y-axis cutoff is at 13, making the loss look much more dramatic than it is. Don't get me wrong: it IS dramatic, but I despise graph trickery to get across a point.

   Would love to see ultra precise and reliable eye tracking that positions the cursor on screen. Left and right clicking could be implemented with hand gestures. This would eliminate the bandwidth and privacy issues a voice UI has while allow

   emacs also has a visual regexp builder mode (M-x re-builder) that shows the 200 first matches in the current buffer to validate that the regular expression does what you want. But AFAIR there are syntax differences between different regexp

   Okay cool, but still it is only run by one single entity. Wouldn't it be nice if everyone in the community could contribute to keep it running?

   Wondering why SciHub is not yet on some sort of IPFS / FreeNet / Tor Storage something. Plain file storage obviously would not be enough, metadata and possibly full text index would have to be stored with each entry. Searchable.

    The spacemacs community on gitter is a helpful crowd. Treating newbies with patience and encouraging asking questions.

    Agreed. You could also strongly filter the input going into the inbox and only manage the critical items like taxes and hard appointments. no low priority or maybe/someday stuff. Best of both worlds.

    Maybe the Spacemacs distribution of emacs is more accessible for emacs beginners. But beware: it is really opinionated.

    In Excel it is both, very accessible and not obvious at the same time. At the top left corner of the sheet, just to the left of the formula bar, there is a textbox that displays the cell Number (eg. A1). Simply click on that and enter a nam

    Four weeks ago my laptop died and my boss said I could order a new one. I was contemplating the Dell XPS 13 and Thinkpad Carbon X1. I chose the latter and so far I am very happy with it. Reading the bad experiences some of you had I am glad

    Indeed, scrambled egg are ready in no time. You can even scramble them in the evening and keep in the fridge until morning. If you have a stove with a timer you can just slosh them in the pan and eat without stirring after a couple of minut

    Two or three scrambled egg with a goid amount of olive oil or coconut oil usually keep me full for longer stretches over the day without cravings.
