In the video, he shows the standard coloring for vim. That coloring is indeed flashy and more distracting than no coloring at all. I tried having no syntax highlighting for a few months, and it was usable, but not as good as with syntax hig

Why is Terry Davis' comment [dead]? It's a sad truth, but a truth nonetheless. IQ's heritability is well-known. So is correlation of IQ with income (although it is much weaker) That said, if the word gap was smaller, the poor

I'm not sure how much of it has been proven, but this language helps a lot with correctness in software engineering. The compiler and type system conspire to make the software correct when it compiles more often than not. Maintenance w

Yes, it's this pun. I did not intend it as a pun, but then I read what I'd written and chuckled. I thought I myself would miss it when reading someone else's article (I'd read with less of a critical eye for form), so I

This is mentioned in the article in the problem explanation section, but quickly and just passing by. I'll put it right at the beginning where it belongs. Thanks! I had not understood properly on first read of your comment, but you did

You should correct some typos at the bottom of the page. Pythen, Unser Interface Design, Data Anaylist. Somehow though I doubt the startups founded off of that will be very successful overall. If what I have understood is right, cofounders
