No user record in our sample, but piekvorst has activity below (stories or comments). Likely we have partial data — the full bulk-load will fill profiles in.

Doesn’t whole arm movement actually enforces the wrists to be periodically relaxed?
It’s unfortunate that we can’t settle on an icon set for at least a decade. Constantly changing the icons misses the very point of their function: instant recognition. This is partly why I’ve escaped to text-only…
Not just a Futurama reference
English being my language of choice, but not my first language, I got 75/100. Performance breakdown: 18/20, 18/20, 11/20, 18/20, 10/20. (My first language is Russian.)
The bottleneck, in my case, was indeed the poorly designed GUI of JetBrains and VSCode versus CLI. By migrating to CLI, I have abandoned intelligent queries as well. This project seems like a bridge: it preserves CLI,…
The icon is traditionally small indeed, but it shouldn’t be. I use the strings “vol-“ and “vol+” as icons, which makes the whole thing 8 characters long. As a universal law, optimizing the fullscreen experience is a…
Instead of using a single menu bar icon “volume control,” I have transferred the lessons of the keyboard to the GUI and placed two buttons in my menu bar: volume down and volume up. I have been using them all the time…
Thank you for busting the myth of worker self-management.
The social engineering thing runs deep. For example, if you grep for “Key” method, chances are the type/class name would stand on the same line. This is the case in Go and, I think, in many other programming languages…
I have always used traditional grep to search codebases. It serves me better than an IDE when there’re lots of scattered and frequent queries. grep’s design is surprisingly winning, exceeding expectations to this day.
This is an outlier. The Go team and community never endorsed that. In fact, their position has always been the opposite. To give just one example, see [1]. [1]: https://research.swtch.com/dogma
You can’t be omniscient, I think.
“Done properly from the beginning” means explaining why a particular feature is either included or not. In this sense, Go is done properly from the beginning. It would be wrong to add every popular feature uncritically.
What’s the correction? The two claims are not in conflict. Saying “we don’t expect to ever add X” is not equivalent to “we never wanted to add X.” It simply means that they didn’t think it would happen, which can…
It’s accepted.
“Curly braces” reads like “the braces—curly ones.” Pointedly emphatic when you want to stress a particular aspect of a thing, much like “rational animals” instead of “humans.”
Aristotle indeed couldn’t prove it, that is, to derive it as a conclusion step by step from the evidence of the senses. His reasons for this are sound: 1) an attempt to do so has to rely on PNC already, and 2) we can’t…
Logic is identification of that which exists. Thus, a proposition either does correspond to reality or doesn’t at all. There is no partial semi-truths: the moment a concept or proposition ceases to describe reality, it…
I agree that lying should be illegal, but “domination” is vague. One could argue (and I would agree) that there’s nothing wrong with dominance if it comes down to just offering a superior product. And why should the…
I think that it's wrong to assume that vi is the only route to deep muscle memory. Heavy mouse users develop blindingly fast Fitts’ Law targeting. And if you need essential simplicity, they have far fewer commands. Bill…
No Plan 9. Otherwise, resources like this might help studying how the interfaces of the past evolved (at least, on the surface).
I’ve never heard of that feature in Windows! Unfortunately, that means I can’t judge it. But I have used mouse warping in other environments and I’ve never been caused disoriented. It never occurred to me that such a…
> TL;DR don't mess with people's mouse cursors, it's like cutting their limbs off. “Don’t mess” is a very broad range that includes things like removing the mouse cursor at nine PM. Of course, no one should do that. But…
You are arguing for uniformity. It does make a lot of sense: the global UI makes a considerable effort to build a single perfect UI, but that can only work if the apps actually make use of it. But why shouldn’t the…
> often only I know the context of that task This doesn’t account for cases where the system is semi-automatic, such as a tiling window manager (you don’t set all the dimensions manually). If the automatic part is to…
