    This is quite a personal thing... I'm terrible at note taking and I've tried a few methods. I find organising this kind of "data" very difficult and I also find habit forming aroun…

    Hey, thanks for this. I'm a long-time Vim user, but I've never gotten around to adding in some slick IDE-like featuers (I've made half an attempt to get code completions working, b…

    I'm a C# dev and I totally agree with this. I've done a limited amount of C++ many many years ago before I even knew what garbage collection was and I keep thinking of revisiting i…

    I know there's a lot of this kind of advise out there and I find most of it works fairly well. I think that for people who have a problem getting things done, the main issue is jus…

    Kudos to you! I can see that this is really really simple stuff (single page client side only), but it's genuinely executed very well in terms of appearance, usability and function…
