Sure, but why does that matter? A lot of good software got developed by itch-scratching.

These are usually discouraged. If there's small upper bound on the size you'll need, type array[MAX_SIZE] is more efficient and harder to mess up [0]. If there isn't, you should use the heap. [0] For more details, see e.g.

I think that the most comfortable way to use it is with an undo tree visualizer plugin. But if you want to only use the defaults, you have g- and g+ to traverse the undo history in chronological rather than logical order, :earlier and

I have mixed feelings about this. It's an interesting experiment and I'm curious to see how it'll pan out, but most of the justification boils down to "C++ is established and boring, Rust is trendy". To me, this wou

Thanks for sharing where you're coming from. My opinion comes from maintaining shell scripts either alone or in small teams of people who learn quickly. Perhaps the optimal solution is different when the team is large. I still think th
