    Command + P worked for me in Firefox, but Command + Shift + P did not. Further, because I don't type in QWERTY, I noticed that _some_ shortcuts seem correctly mapped in my layout, …

    > My biggest complaint is that asterisks map to and underscores map to (in HTML terms). This is not backwards-compatible with Markdown where (asterisk)foo(asterisk) gets you foo , …

    You've made the thing in my brain I've wanted to build for a while but which felt too hard. And you've made it self-hostable! You legend... thank you!

    I wish Mozilla had been able to keep pushing harder with their servo project. IIRC, one of the earliest upsides I remember hearing about to justify creating Rust (in order to build…

    Yeah I use them too. I keep meaning to set up Firefly III to try it but Pocketsmith _has_ been really good. For a period of time I had accounts in a couple of countries and it was …

    As an early adopter of actions I remember that it was wildly different in its first version (beta perhaps?) than it is today. I have no source to back this up because it was too lo…

    Agree 100%. Also, thanks for hiring me into Heroku at the time, even if it's behind both of us now <3

    That scene gave me chills while watching it, and chills just now while re-watching it. So good.

    Yeah. And when you might actually _need_ to change, it could be while doing a 3-point turn in the middle of a busyish street. You really don't want to be lingering in the middle of…

    I worked with her (I was on the team she was initially hired onto at Heroku) and she is one of the best hires we ever made, hands down.

    Agreed. It can be a bit noisier at first but once you learn to read it, I find it makes resolving conflicts so much easier. For those of you who haven't used it, try switching it o…
