I think fasd ( https://github.com/clvv/fasd ) is pretty much a superset of both fzf and z, but I haven't actually used fzf before

I'm not quite sure what you mean because I've not used the default Firefox skin for a long time. You can change almost every aspect of the Firefox UI by editing your userChrome.css file, for which there are tutorials online. If yo

Not helped by the nonsensical UX. Why would a user expect changing a selection in a dropdown to start playing sound? I know UX isn't the name of the game here, but I think that's the part that made me shit myself

Here's a tangentially related def con about the strange economics of that whole scam. Basically, everyone in the chain apart from the cardholder benefits. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2IT2oAzTcvU

I don't think this is a fair conclusion at all. Dolphin behaviour has been well studied and it's clear that they seek out mental stimulation for its own sake.

Python is a language that seems to make a lot of sense at first but gets a bit weird when you dig into things. The + operator particularly is a bit funny; I recently came across a case where x+=y was not equivalent to x=x+y... Though I can&

Lawyers exist to get paid. We all know, for instance, that copyright notices in source code are pointless (and I mean like an extensive message in every single file) but it's more important for a lawyer to cover their ass from any poss

I believe the dalai lama has decreed that prayers on a spinning hard disk platter do count... So you could get a much more efficient prayer wheel for pretty cheap by spinning 8TB of prayers at 7200rpm ;) I don't remember exactly where

I thought github had hooks for this kind of thing now? I remember it caught a private key I tried to push to a similar django repo (not for a prod site or anything), and that was about 2 years ago

I think it strongly evokes a line on a paper form, which indicates a place where the user must fill out a field (and fits with the recurring paper metaphor). If I'd never used a computer before, I think I would figure this out based on

Other great tools in the python terminal sphere are colorama, blessings and urwid. Colorama is just for cross platform colouring, blessings is a very elegant wrapper over curses which is still useful for not-fullscreen things, and urwid is

Exactly. Check out the dismal success rate of the Luna programme[0]. It would have been a lot harder if they couldn't accept such a level of risk. SpaceX's cheap rockets have this same advantage. [0]: https://en.wikiped

On the contrary, I'd say the ESC key is even more important to normal consumers than programmers compared to, say, the backtick key. I mostly use it for coming out of fullscreen for youtube, netflix etc and I'm sure most consumers

I don't know about this, I've heard that limiting is often intentionally inconsistent because this makes people less likely to visit. I think Harlow did some similar stuff with his monkeys.
