Fascinating video and indeed pretty straightforward. However, the bank robber analogy starting at 26mins https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DC8tO16xdrY&t=1601s does not sit quite right. You can't just stick with one

As others have rightly noted AHK is amazing for what it lets you do on Windows. I've easily saved/earned over 100k USD from AHK. However, the AHK language is not the most pleasant to use. That leads to question why isn't ther

Agreed that is completely reasonable. One stream is sufficient. Unfortunately per EDIT4, it looks like it is not possible to leave this service running on reMarkable2 until the next time. Any way to reset without going into SSH again? EDIT:

Coming from subversion it seemed silly that staging and committing is separated in git. Why not have a command to combine the both? Most git clients handle this automatically since for most "normal" flows there is no need to separ

Fantastic amount of information in a single page. . However there are two things I do not like: 1. Use of <identifier> notation for almost everything. It might be technically sound, but it brings to mind reading Backus-Naur form specs
