It's broked. The party in power rarely see it as broked. Ergo, no proportional representation.

Yup. Came to post a link to Wikipedia[x]. Only Clegg (now former Liberal Democrat coalition partners) stood in the way of this before. Now Theresa May can get to work implementing this lovely piece of legislation. Maybe they'll even ma

True enough. The session restore still stands. I know tmuxinator exists, but as a personal preference I'd prefer it in-built/native. Also to save state, which I'd expect is asking too much.

Anyone else slightly disappointed that connecting to a tmux session with mosh breaks mouse-mode? That fixed, plus session restore, would be the dream.

Not to undermine the point, because I do agree, but 'select - right click - go to address' is marginally quicker, unless you're keyboard shortcutting with 'ctrl-c, ctrl-l, ctrl-v'...

I've dived at the Blue Hole mentioned, in Dahab. Scuba, but was out with freedivers too. Also Swedes. It's a beautiful yet chilling place, with gravestones lining the surrounding rock walls. Divers who didn't come back. Macho

Agreed with your point. Don't understand the downvotes either, but I think the general consensus at HN is to not complain about downvotes. Might be wrong, but it won't help your case if so. Still, your point stands.

Nice perspective. Won't summarise here, it'll be better for people to read/skim themselves (30 seconds), but in general the concept holds true. Does this mean we could save years of tougher work by doing things manually? Is n

Note to those setting up new XMPP accounts: DuckDuckGo has a solid XMPP server[7] available for public use. They do their damnedest to protect privacy also, from what I understand. That'll be all. -- [7] https://duck.co&#x2F

If that wasn't completely tongue-in-cheek, check out Lars Monsen[0] on NRK.no if possible from your country. He's the real deal. Now to look up Survivorman... -- [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lars_Monsen

Aware this is far from 'news' but I watched it today for the first time and had to say/do something. A real film for our time. A truly tragic story but also incredibly inspiring.

Elixir is new to me. The Raspberry Pi 2 less so - and I'm so impressed with it. Everything I used to get frustrated about with the Pi 1 has gone. It's very satisfying to run such a solid system so cheaply. I haven't even over

MemoQ, for the most part! It's .Net software so it should run in theory under Linux. Certainly under a VM, potentially with Mono. I haven't tried either.

Thanks for the encouragement. Did you do something similar yourself? I'll give it a bash, I think, based on your words. Just think of the influence that comment might have had on his future life if it does pay off. Thanks again! Edit:
