don't mean to nitpick but textmate bundle support doesn't an emacs make. redcars extensibility and openness make it more like emacs.
There's the decent end of lygon where you can get great italian for cheap prices like tiamo. then there's the gauntlet of death down the other end. we generally walk the back streets to avoid the spruikers
In wealthier societies, people don't need others as much to get by. They tend to view others first as competition, and then freeloaders, trying to steal their hard earned dollar. In places where there is less material…
you mean 192.168.X.X?? 192.0.X.X is a public ip address range
I guess it boils down to what you prefer using. Emacs is my shell, filebrowser, ftp client etc. Having a standard UI for all your text editing is pretty amazing. After all, everything inside a CLI is just text. I run up…
yeah, I think a lot of the frustration with the emacs editing experience comes down to its standard keybindings. While on a level they do make sense, there's far too much cruft and history in them. Having to type…
I switched from VIM to emacs. While a lot of the nice things in emacs can eventually be backported into vim, I think the extensibility and apples all/most of the way down approach of emacs is superior. Even after using…
the main reason I don't use js2-mode is that it breaks mumamo mode which I use in nxhtml. That said, it is a pretty amazing mode. I should look into js2-mode for js files and maybe espresso for nxhtml
until java has a var keyword and closures, there is no way you can claim that it's less verbose than languages like ruby or python. I can't count the amount of time I wasted typing things like LongVariableName…
For me, the main unpleasantness of reddit lies in the amount of pun threads that show up in the comments on any story. It may have been funny at first, but it just makes it harder and harder to find the actual…
No I think it's a problem when women aren't allowed to do anything else.
not a whine, just an observation.
On a level, referring to the role of a mother as a "sex object, baby producer, domestic slave" is pretty flawed where along the way did we lose respect for women who stay at home to raise a family?? also using hollywood…
not at all. and I'm a heterosexual male. I think we spend too much time demonizing basic human sexuality, and not enough time accepting and understanding it. removing all semi naked pictures off magazine covers will not…
and yet so few women respect geeks...
people got used to texting on a number pad because there weren't any real alternatives. the problem 8ten is facing that there are a number of alternatives that require smaller mental leaps to use effectively. people…
out of curiosity, how do you count 80-100 hours a week? Do you keep timesheets? 100 hours is 14 hours a day, every day.
taking too much on due to technology allowing us to do more, getting stressed with it, not being able to stick to time management system.
I think the author is right about us taking too much on. It seems in this day and age, any extra time that comes from an increase in productivity is immediately filled with another task, which brings with it an increase…
+1 this. I've switched from magit to egg and couldn't be happier. Makes working with git a breeze
I'm doing some Blackberry dev at the moment for an internal app, not a pleasant experience. Have a read of http://versatilemonkey.com/story.html for a really good in depth look at what it was like developing for BB and…
I'd think it also has to do with battery life. Especially with long running apps.
Thinking in terms of "add feature X" is not breaking it down enough. No feature is an atomic piece of code...if it was, "add feature X" would be enough to implement it and you would be done. The trick is to keep…
What is causing your feeling of wasted potential? Why do you feel your potential needs to be fulfilled anymore than anyone else's? Why make yourself so unhappy because you haven't achieved greatness? One of the crazy…
Ya I think it's a bit of the dunning-kruger effect at work. He's been using the editor for 2 weeks and can see what it needs more than people who have been using it for years.
