Just curious: you mentioned SSH. What is currently the optimal way to setup vim/neovim over SSH and carry all your configuration over with you to different servers?

It's also so much easier to write plugins in Lua than the insanity that is Vimscript. It's why I'm slowly moving into Lua-ifying my configuration away from old standbys like NERDTree to things like nvim-tree.lua.

Count me as another long-time HN user who refuses on principle to play the My Pronouns game. Burn me at the proverbial stake if you will, or bring out the HR version of the portable guillotine—but I will never, ever knuckle under to the her

Apple calls the green button “zoom” in their documentation, but its default function is fullscreen, not zoom. I've always found that a bit disorienting. I guess Apple just decided that "zoom" is better as a name because it&

As a user of neovim, tmux, and vim-plug, I'm interested in this. I have quite a few plugins but my neovim setup is still so much faster than things like VS Code.

I get that this is under development, but at this point is this really more effective or smoother in terms of workflow than just using standalone neovim and tmux?

Definitely true here in SE Asia and other parts of the developing world. In the Philippines for instance, you go to a supermarket and there are rows and rows of formula boxes and all you need to do is look at the packaging and advertising t

Can you explain how Blind referrals work? I think I know, but I'm not entirely clear on the details since they're nothing on the landing page of the site about it (at least if you don't have an account yet).

In retrospect, I probably shouldn't have used a slogan that is usually associated with Apple to ThinkPads running Linux. FWIW, I was a huge fan of the IBM ThinkPads when they still had the great keyboards. So what happened to me is tha

What's wild to me is that he had to ask his wife for permission to get more personal time in exchange for getting a much higher paying job. I've been married over 10 years and have two kids, and I don't need permission from

Yep, and thing is, if you run RHEL or Fedora or really anything from Red Hat, they have a close collaboration with Lenovo and upstream, so everything Just Works™ out of the box.

It was cool to see you mention Floorball. Growing up in the USA, I always wished it was more popular here but apparently it was never going to beat street hockey. I wonder if any of the FAANG companies with some northern European employees

It's a little easier if you install the vim plugin on VS Code. However, I really wish VS Code had a more comprehensive set of vim keybindings.

You guys should try Brave Search (I'm not affiliated, just a user). If you like the speed of Chromium and the Blink engine, but you're dissatisfied with the Firefox/DDG combination, it's particularly good.

My son is eleven years old, a huge Minecraft fan, and is exactly like that. Now, he does know that MSFT makes Windows, but that's not an existential threat to him like ruining Minecraft is.

I know somebody with really impressive engineering skills who works for Rolls-Royce and graduated from Rose Hulman. Anecdotal but if he is anything like their typical students, that school has a good engineering department.

Don't you mean "a company can deliberately make itself anti-racist and anti-sexist"? Otherwise that second sentence doesn't make sense in the context of your entire comment.
