That makes sense, and I definitely wasn't trying to denigrate ST. Having not touched Windows since 2003, and having come from the vim world I had to learn a few aspects of Sublime to help my coworkers out, and just like you say, having

In Colorado municipal airports serve more "public good" purposes. One purpose is for less rich (but still pretty rich) people to go skydiving. Another is to stage aircraft for fire fighting in places that are closer to the fires.

This sounds like a refutation, but it's also in the same spirit as the parent. "No need to deal with insane complexities, I'll stick with my simple editor." Whether that's vim or Sublime, that answer works, and that

I feel the same way too, but I have to ask myself, why do I deserve a search engine to automatically index my content and then show it to others without my having to give anything in return? Let's say I actually wrote something of valu

Same. And then when I go to the homes of people I love, and their TVs are blaring commercials in the background of their lives, it's such this weird "I thought I knew you" feeling.

Wait what would a king know about congress? Actually what would a philosopher know about wielding power? Anyway, here's what journalists and think-tanks say about it: https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles&#x2F

This is me. I'm a clutz and I use mason jars in a little cloth sleeve. I drop like 2 a year and I end up with a wet bag of glass. That sucks but I just buy another $2 jar from a thrift store and I'm back in business.

I agree. ChatGPT is like the Windows of LLMs in it's dominance but that still leaves plenty of room for smaller players to make a niche.

Debates can also be structured enough that if the debaters follow the rules it becomes possible to see clear winners, or at least surface important ideas for people to chew on. The James Baldwin / William Buckley debate is a good examp

Yeah, Tanda's own terms of services[1] are more restrictive than DO's. They "restrict or suspend" all services (or else terminate the agreement) if the client is 14 days late. This vs ignoring billing alerts for a month

I second this. There are few reliable[1] online sources for what now passes as social history, and Reddit is one of them. Destroying that history just to hurt a company seems antithetical to what the WWW is. We should be preserving its cont

Maybe the scale is the problem. What if instead you built the infra and then snatched away the users of one of the less popular subreddits, then federated the code? You'd have the same problems as Mastodon and stuff, but that would all
