Rolling release distros are based on the assumption that it's more important to get bug fixes out fast than wait to see if a new version introduces new bugs. As long as you update your Arch install as frequently as possible AND iron o

Your association isn't really accurate. 1Password's storage model is basically the same as KeePass, your passwords are stored in encrypted blobs that are not decryptable without your master password, which is never sent over the

It's very nice, particularly if you live in the Apple ecosystem where KeePass clients are complete crap. I avoid the 1Password.com cloud hosting stuff because it slightly expands the threat model in exchange for web access to my passwo

This was true for a while, but vim 8 (and some of the last patches of vim 7) added async tasks, channels and built-in JSON encoding/decoding. It's a hassle to have to support two different interfaces, but I suspect most plugin au

It was possible a long time ago (pre-VS 2003) to embed a real copy of gvim as an OLE widget inside Visual Studio. I'm looking forward to being able to do that in a less hacky way via neovim.

I use/have used neovim-dot-app, it's pretty nice. It's not quite as polished as MacVim, mostly little things like not having dock menu entries for creating/switching windows. I had to compile from HEAD fairly regularly

Thierry Coquand is the creator of CoC and co-creator of Coq, so they're definitely related. :)

Strongly endorsing the "make the pain go away" path to learning, but I'd also like to mention a secret weapon for really nailing down the more powerful movement and editing commands in vim: macros. Macros are immensely useful

If you want to board a train, you don't try to jump in through an open window while it's moving at full speed. Emacs and vim are very fast trains with very slow acceleration. You're going to spend days, possibly weeks, stru

You might find vim-sneak useful: https://github.com/justinmk/vim-sneak . https://github.com/easymotion/vim-easymotion is another plugin that does something slightly different, but also useful.

It's easy to verify that they received TARP money and donated to Democratic PACs because both of those things are public information and completely legal to do. What Guccifer 2.0 claims goes far beyond that - that there's an expl

That's a fundamental problem with leaks like this, particularly from brazenly partisan sources. There's no realistic way to verify that the hacker did not fabricate documents to insert before they released the "leak".

In order to use erl/erlc from the command line, would I have to launch an "Erlang Terminal" from the menu bar or is there a convenient way to get the current default Erlang's bin folder on my path? Edit: I mostly work wi

AirDrop doesn't require you to be on the same wifi network, or even for the devices to have internet access. I use it to toss files from my Macbook to my (completely offline) iPad regularly.

So I switched from Python to Elixir for web backend stuff, but I also have experience with other functional languages like Scala, Clojure, Haskell. I've recently been learning Swift. I really like Elixir overall, these are the parts

I would encourage you to leave your comfort zone and actually explore what's out there in terms of type systems. There are type systems that are MUCH more powerful and useful than C, C++ or Java. If you like C++ and Java, I would sug
