Rob Pike's "Concurrency is not parallelism"[1] slides enlightened me to the distinction being made here. I think it's valuable and over-due for the industry[2] to define the boundaries of these concepts (which are often

I wonder where that rumor started, but I responded to a similar assertion on reddit[1]. To summarize: * Uncrustify was literally one of the first things that was done before Neovim was even announced. It's only listed in the "prog

Well-written. The first (only) comment is even more interesting. My main question with Vagrant is where to get a trustworthy VM image. The list of random links to community submitted VMs did not instill confidence.

Lua plays a key role in the architecture of neovim[1] - all unit tests going forward are written in lua/moonscript[2] - Lua will be embedded in neovim, and vimscript plugins will be compiled on-the-fly to Lua. Yes, this is really happe
