   It would be nice if square automatically chose the cheaper option. So I pay per swipe until I reach $275 in fees. After that, it holds steady until I reach the next point.

   I think I saw a documentary on him in school. It was an interesting life: come up with crazy demos, and convince other people to turn them into products.

    He didn't replace it, he made a demo. The original owners then had to implement his design. I've coded up demos as tools for getting my point accross for a particular feature. I don't own or maintain the resulting implementation. It was a p

    "work for you" might not be the right message, as that is what IDEs are known for. I'd say that vim makes you faster. It's like talking with your close friend vs talking with a stranger. You understand each other better and can speak very q

    If you play on a server that you control, it is trivial to 'give' resources to anyone in the game. You type 'give <username> <item_id> <quantity>' and that resource will drop in front of the desired player. I find th

    I chose vim because it was radically different than anything else. All text editors have crazy shortcuts that do magic, but only vim has the ironically named NORMAL mode with its verbs, movements and registers... I treated it like a new gam

    I use it almost exclusively on my 11" air. With limited screen space it is very helpful. And swiping directionally between fullscreen apps is more intuitive than cmd-tab. But it is total garbage on a large screen, so I don't use it when doc
