One of the beautiful things about vim is that they have multiple ways to skin the cat and, as such, you develop your own mode of using it. For example to navigate within a single line you can: - f[character] (jump to character) - w/e (

I am likewise surprised by how hard this hits. I shouted out loud when I read the headline! Quite a reaction to somebody who I only ever saw one photo of and read the occasional release notes etc. Yet as a vim user, he has been part my dail

I’ve come to the same conclusion. I began to build a very simple app about a month ago and as a Web Dev figured React Native would be the best tool. Having completed about 60% of the app, I’m going to trash the whole thing and restart wit

Yes! I vividly recall the moment when I realized that the emergence of life of earth wasn’t just the lucky occurrence of a cell coming into being, but a cell that could also replicate itself in a non-destructive, information-passing manner.

One of the things I appreciated about this article was the subcurrent of lack-of-knowledge. Ok, there was the pandemic, manufacturing problems, supply chain issues, etc. However it sounds like there was a chronic lack of people who had done

Ha! I feel like I’m in the crazy house as you’re the only other person who has asked that…all these well thought out responses that seem completely oblivious to the doozy of an introduction. “So I once played poker with a gorilla and [inser

I was speaking with the owner of an auto shop a few months back and he made an interesting point I hadn’t heard re Ford: whereas Tesla is eating new customers, Ford and other legacy automakers are having to eat their own customers…which can

A phenomenal artist. Thank you Cormac for bringing honest beauty to my life. Some of my past HN comments re McCarthy: - When I read both Melville and McCarthy, I'll often find myself mid-run-on-sentence and think to myself, "welp,

Of course, that's part of the joke. If we can't laugh, we can only cry. (Note: I have suffered several terrible tragedies in my life...perhaps a reason why I feel free to speak flippantly about what should not be flippant)

Excuse the extremely dark humor...it's what honestly came to mind when they were showing a guy sitting alone in an eerily empty room looking at photos and videos of his loved ones as if they were still here.

While I can see this as useful for work, every other application does honestly frighten me. We're human. We're embodied. Digital things can be fun, but we're meant to be in the real world.

Outside of the themes, words, and presentation talents of Steve, these recent Apple events are making me realize I miss his wardrobe. I knew what he wore. I knew he really wanted to show me something, not just himself. Having every person i

Wow! That's amazing my brain has completely ignored it or, at the least, passed it off as nothing. My brain must be interpreting assuming or expecting AI in the presentation and making things stand out accordingly.

Not only that, but one thing that bothers me about Apple's demos is how unusual all the models are. Why can't they just look like normal people? I did see an old person who they referred to as "your neighbor" and I felt

> "With iPhone in your hand" The lack of an article was a bit startling here, i.e. "iPhone" not "an iPhone". Is this something they have been doing for awhile? Sure we've heard "Siri" and &quo

Indeed. When I lived in CA, I probably checked the weather twice a year. Now that I live in TX, I check the weather daily and often multiple times a day! It was a surprising, but obvious, change after living most of my life without seasons

I love your last observation. Reminds me of: > It is plain, then, that phrenologically the head of this Leviathan, in the creature's living intact state, is an entire delusion. (Moby Dick) Melville's meditations on the anatomy

For anybody curious about the Catholic and monastic spirituality of silence, I would recommend a profound book: The Power of Silence by Cardinal Robert Sarah It’s final chapter is in fact a discussion with the Carthusian Master Dom Dysmus

This sounds like a ripe short story or short film (perhaps by the Coen brothers) on modern man.

I really appreciate your comment. I think I’ll remember the phrase “Buddhism on easy mode” for the rest of my life! Your observation about preparation, behavior, state of life etc is also very poignant. I am Catholic and something that I’ve

Had anybody else noticed that for many Stoicism has replaced Buddhism as the “cool” and “intellectual” spirituality amongst those in the liberal tech world?

Multi-tenancy is indeed the use case. Our current solution involves keeping each customer's data in a separate index. I'll review the link. Thanks!

Congrats! Question for the team as I see a possible discrepancy on the website. The "Comparisons" page says there is no limit for number of indices ( https://docs.meilisearch.com/learn/what_is_meilisearch/

This is a point I don't often see discussed. I have friends and family in CA whose primary asset is their home, with little to nothing invested elsewhere (perhaps because of the high cost of living)...resulting in a mortgage they have
