   Thanks a lot. Shells have so many features it's easy to miss one.

   I seriously considered using eshell (I love Lisp and Emacs dired-mode), but ended up continuing with Fish. Since I use the non-graphical Emacs (emacs-nox), I can easily start dired-mode in terminal by writing: emacs .

   # First Topic The idea would be to be able to write something like this: function yt --pure youtube-dl $argv end The parser should stop interpreting arguments after the yt function call and pass the args as strings to t

   Thanks for the awesome fish shell – my beloved default. For improvements here are two things I wish where possible in fish: * The ability via a flag to say that a fish-function should not interpret passed function-arguments. This would enab

   Emacs has already some kind of buttons and search fields, check out M-x "customize" to see some of them.

   Did a small test by searching for "fish shell for loop" * qwant.com did not return useful results at the top * google.com did okay, but answer was behind the first link * duckduckgo.com displayed the answer at the top of the page

   Write down ideas... I'm very skeptical that this would work, because I have ideas about all kinds of topics all the time. My list would be so crowded and mixed that it would be hard to prioritize anything. At the end I would see on pap

    Does the appearance of quantum computers mean that the effectiveness of programming languages becomes secondary and that ease-of-use/expressiveness will be the most valued trait?

    Its 2017 and I wait for my computer. I wait on Linux, I wait on Windows. This sucks hard. It is still complicated to search for stuff or to morph data from one representation into another. The web is even worse. And lets not talk about shar

    Publishing software – especially close source software – for Linux has always been, and still is, a huge pain. Beside all the nightmarish things you have to do to package something. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5PmHRSeA2c

    There is a third option nobody seems to talk about `git merge --squash` (a squashed commit bundles commits into one commit). Which produces like `rebase` a linear commit history, but preserves the single commits.

    Interesting to read someone else ideas about that topic, which I though myself quite a lot about. The basic building block of a better desktop OS is IMHO – and as the OP wrote – a communication contract between capabilities and the glue (a.

    Code examples are missing on the linked page. Having a website about a new car without any pictures would be strange, same applies to less known programming languages.

    For me it is always difficult to see the groups in the permission groups, I would prefer the user part would have one color, the group part another... identifying if there is a r or w is not the problem. There should maybe be also between t

    Hi lukasb, my last Android dev job was two years ago, I try my best to give you some feedback. Lets start with expectations. I expect that tasks performed by the majority of Android developers are actively supported by Google and are as eas

    Google should do this for regular Android APIs. The frequency you have to look up special-android-things is stunning –> disrupts your flow = very bad There are way too many things you have to keep in your head on Android to get things ri

    The default "simple" console text editor "nano" should be replaced by the much more intuitive editor called "ne" (a less known gem).
