For a much better treatment of the same general idea, read "Peak: Secrets from the New Science of Expertise" by K. Anders Ericsson.

You modulate your rate of acceleration with your right foot. If you want a car that accelerates from 25-55 over 4 seconds, drive that way...
For younger readers, or those who prefer a lighter reader, Dawkins "The Greatest Show On Earth" covers similar material in a more accessible (if less rigorous) manner. I forgot to mention it in my own recommendations,…
* Peak: Secrets from the New Science of Expertise by K. Anders Ericsson Much of our upbringing and education is underpinned by the assumption that "talent" is a real thing. Peak dismantles that assumption pretty…
I like Listary - I haven't used Everything to compare, but I'm aware that they're similar. For text file contents I'm a huge advocate for ripgrep , and for metadata...to be honest I don't have a great solution, so I'll…
School libraries working to support an established curriculum? This was totally normal in my high school - the texts that would be studied by a particular grade were stable for several years at a time, so they would…
The first computer I used had Windows 3.1, so I'm not sure if I "grew up with" XP.... but no, it looks super dated to me. The icons are OK, the rest of Luna is fairly ugly. There might be something to your theory,…
Unfortunately, I work on a million-line codebase. Grep might be fine 99% of the time, but there's no reason to not drop a ripgrep binary on every machine I use regularly. Ripgrep is faster across the board and has…
It's been mentioned previous, but you should check out ripgrep - it's even faster than Silver Searcher a lot of the time https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep
And to round out the set, xsv (https://github.com/BurntSushi/xsv/) is a powerful toolkit for CSV.
There's no consensus, but this provides a reasonable argument for "not really": https://startingstrength.com/article/heavy-lifting-and-heart... (both authors are lifters, one is an MD. Take that as you will)
The VB6 IDE is distressingly easy to get running on modern versions of Windows - this is fortunate, since we still need to support it, but upsetting, since it diminishes the incentive for killing it off.
Cost is still a big factor - you need fairly decent hardware (minimum GTX 970 / RX 480) for an acceptable experience on Vive/Rift, and we're still a generation away from that performance hitting mainstream price points…
