I’m so cooked I genuinely thought that’s what it was at first, until I noticed all the words were slang/recent colloquialisms

Elaborate on some examples of the YIMBYs?

Thanks for the detailed explanation, makes a lot of sense! I guess what I did was set up a UEFI entry that specifies the location of the Linux kernel without any intermediate bootloader. Pretty sure I didn’t set the fallback, so I’m guessing that’s still owned by windows.

What is that latter fallback called? I set up my boot manually using an EFI stub last time I installed arch but wasn’t aware of any fallback bootloader

I don’t think there’s any consistent association between side of the road and side of the escalator. E.g. within Japan, I think either Kansai or maybe Osaka specifically does it opposite to most of the rest of the country.

I went to a trivia night at a local bar with a guy from high school and his family. We were in contention for the top. The whole night I was useless, since most of the questions were about European sports legends or actors or singers from the 20th century. The guy starts feeling up the last question:

“This is a tricky one and one of my favorites. Going to the realm of technology… What is the name for a unit of measurement, named after a Disney character, which is related to how far your mouse moves?”

The whole family looks at me, cause I’m known to be a tech guy.

Complete blank. Flustered. Uhhh uhmmm it’s called DPI? Pointer speed?? Is there a Disney character called Peter Pointer?..

We lost. They were disappointed, but not as disappointed as I was in myself.

Went up to the trivia guy at the end to ask him to show his sources. He pulled up a legit looking wikipedia article so I accepted my defeat.

I think neovim with kickstart has out-of-the-box support for go, or if not, should be configurable with two added lines (add the treesitter parser and LSP). Unlike nvchad and lunarvim and stuff, this is not a “distribution” of neovim but a good starting point for a config that makes it easy to slowly learn how to add stuff and change stuff as you see fit.

At the beginning, you can add languages that you need support for pretty easily by adding to a list of LSPs and Treesitter parsers that should be installed; later on you can start adding and configuring plugins as you wish.

I’d say it sets you up about the same level as Helix or a little less than VSCode.

Sequel to cocaine bear looking good

Why? The quotes will be consumed by the shell when you execute the command, unless you do like "'{}'"

My solution for this has been on my Linux machine, using keyd, to swap alt and super, and map super+c, super+v to copy and paste. (I also map super+L, super+R, super+T and super+W in Firefox to the control- equivalents using keyd’s per-application bindings functionality)

Switching it at the terminal emulator level should work fine for every CLI/TUI though, right? Just have your terminal send 0x03 when you press C-S-c and copy selected text on C-c. I haven’t tested it but I’m sure that alacritty, wezterm, windows terminal and probably tmux can do this.

you can make it sort the first k elements and it will still be O(1). Set k high enough and it might even be useful

You don’t need the and right? Can’t it just be return a or b

This doesn’t work if a is falsy non-null actually

I used boba u4 silents on my custom keyboard. Absolutely love them. Wish they made a consumer-grade keyboard with them (or maybe they already do?) But I’ve been working on a MacBook recently and tbh the keyboard there is pretty good now. So next step for me is to build a low profile keyboard

On my colemak keyboard I put arrow keys on another layer under where hjkl are on qwerty. Beyond that, most of the keys are remembered by mnemonic rather than position imo

If this is about line endings, surely a simple shell or python script could correct them?

Aren’t pants a sphere with two holes? (A double torus?)

Edit: a 3d pair of pants is a double torus, a 2d one is a sphere with three holes

I’ve been using Sidebery with some userchrome to hide the top tabs, and it’s a workable solution, but far from ideal.

I also wish keybindings were configurable. For example, with the “/” search, ctrl-g/G to go to next/prev match is really weird

For the last point, even worse on Mac
