Emacs and vim are entirely different things. I wouldn’t want to use vim for some of the things you can do in emacs(although technically possible). Vim is a better text editor, but fortunately you are able to use vim inside emacs.

I have recently been wondering if, instead of a company having a privacy policy, they could instead use a privacy license. This way you could easily discern their stance on privacy from the name of the license. Not sure if anything like thi

The previous poster is correct, I think you are mistaken. It should read like this: "if you are an engineer at Microsoft working on a small azure component, say datacenter automatic failover component" At least this is how I read

Unfortunately it's not so much me, but my friends in this case. If I want to stay in touch with a large group of past co-workers who are all in the same slack, it isn't feasible to convince them all to switch to a self hosted serv

Thoughts after around 5 minutes. It's fast, really fast. Cmd + P Fuzzy Find for switching chats between Discord/Slack and person/channel is amazing. Will continue to use as it doesn't appear to be near as buggy as Volt.

I wouldn't say it never goes as smoothly as they describe, at least in my experience. My experience with the iphone xs + airpods is about: 50% as they describe 49% have to go through bluetooth menu for instant pair 1% they

For me it is only slow if I go outside the default scaled resolution. On my 2015 13" mbp I use the default scaled resolution to get around the performance issues. Another work around if you want to use a non-default scaled resolution w
