It's on the homepage - they aim to support the full VS Code extensions API and that is how they power language features like completion. I've been keeping an eye on onivim for a long time and think it has a lot of potential. Last

That's exactly the problem - they do not tell you why you were terminated.

The Linux Experiment is probably my favourite linux-focussed YouTube channel. Nick has been doing absolutely fantastic work and his channel being permanently deleted would be an absolute travesty and a clear mistake. He is producing high qu

Yup definitely more than just webhooks - I can't perform basic git operations like push.

€38-78k is a high salary in Europe. Net median income in Spain is $27k. Regardless, in the US net median income is $37k. I think maybe you're living in a bubble if you don't understand how people live on that kind of money. Also,

Same, it's pretty great. Unfortunately it's suffering from some bitrot and the internal browser usually works for only about 50% of the articles.

Anecdata: I don't want to tile all my windows, only terminals, so I'm not interested in tiling WM. I also jump between OSs and appreciate being able to have the same terminal multiplexing behaviour on both linux and macOS, without

Schadenfreude seems to be the prevailing take in these kinds of threads, but as a Brit living in Spain I can tell you that the people in the article are not representative of most Brits in Spain. There are plenty of young Brits living in c

I also have some extensions with users in the tens of thousands and can corroborate all of this. Out of curiosity I strung one "buyer" along to see how much they would offer and they quoted $0.20 per user. With the amount of money

Nothing. I own a few extensions with users in the tens of thousands and receive so many emails from people/business trying to buy out the extensions for "monetization". This is a huge issue and Google is doing absolutely noth

I'm not sure what distro or desktop environment you're running, but integer scaling has worked perfectly on gnome, kde and others for years now. So 200% scaling of a 4k resolution should look exactly the same as unscaled 1080p, ju

Wow ok, surprised that they are unmetered! Surely that can't scale? What is an estimate £ cost in electricity for filling an average battery?

How do these public charging stations work in terms of payment? Do you have to activate it using a credit/debit card first and then just leave it plugged in?

I have this exactly same problem - Chromium, Firefox, Electron - and it's apparently an unfixed bug in the nvidia drivers. For me it only started a few months ago. I'm on Ubuntu 20.10 and it's still a problem.

Creator of the extension here. It actually does work on Android, it's just not in the (very short) list of allowed extensions yet. There is a workaround to add custom addons, though: https://github.com/tom-james-watson&

My base model macbook pro from 2014 had 8GB of RAM. So, yeah, they've been selling laptops with the same base amount of RAM for at least 6 or 7 years.

Lower yields = more land use to meet demand = more deforestation and loss of wilderness and biodiversity. Maximising yields is definitely something we want to do if we are interested in saving this planet.

Just to add to this, non-integer (AKA fractional) scaling also works substantially worse on gnome for me than in windows. It even is hidden behind a switch with a warning that it "May increase power usage, lower speed, or reduce displa
