You can also use the ":terminal" command (":te" for short) in Neovim.

The previous discussion[1] made a good case for Lua. Shipping Lua as a first-class alternative to VimL also happens to be the primary goal for Neovim in 2017. [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=895350

David Hume arrived at a reasonably rigorous framework (Principle of Nature's Uniformity) that allows your conclusion, in my opinion. He's worth reading, if only to find enough closure to move on from philosophy.

The `:CheckHealth` command added in Neovim 0.1.5 should help with python/ruby/general sanity checks. It has more improvements in 0.1.6 which will be released soon.

That's why Neovim carefully implemented[1] most of the defaults (and a few others) from sensible.vim. [1] https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/2676

Neovim will support PUC Lua 5.1 for both user scripts as well as internal lua logic. The external lua-client[1] supports luajit and PUC lua and the CI[2] runs PUC lua on every PR and commit. The Neovim patch[3] to add built-in lua scripting

Ok. But if for some bizarre reason lacking a Nobel prize, people multiply non-linearly, then BI will not be sustainable, correct? And that constraint defies the definition of post-scarcity.

Trust me, you don't want EF--no matter how many times they say "vNext is gonna be great!!1 for real this time." Consider a micro-ORM like dapper[1]. [1] https://github.com/StackExchange/dapper-dot-net

It's not really a matter of saving time, but eliminating friction (context-switches). Editing is a chore, and fiddling with text while taking notes, or debugging, or thinking about a problem, has a cost. It's also quite alarming t

Yep, and all of them have "blind spots" or lack attention to subtle details, because the authors didn't use Vim for very long, if at all.
