    One super-useful key combo which is often overlooked is C-x-e, which edits the current command in $EDITOR. Very useful when dealing with history and long commands that need paramet…

    PlantUML does sequence diagrams very nicely, using a pretty simple markup language. It becomes very easy to draw up sequence diagrams quite quickly after using it for a short perio…

    I am the same, but I'm not very good about telling people I would consider it if given a PR. Maybe I should publish something like you've said here as an upfront policy.

    There's a lot of misunderstanding of the word karma. This "I still regret/think about" you are referring to is actually one of the true natures of karma. Your actions have an affec…

    Ask HN: How do you archive old/abandoned code changes?

    I find myself wanting to keep bits of changes around, that I may in fact never want. But some have useful bits of logic in them, or snippets that I may need in the future, or may w…

    I just switched from TST to sidebery. I would have preferred to stay with TST, but the ability to switch between different trees is a killer feature.

    I think you're ignoring the entertainment value of hitters getting more hits. In general, more balls in play means more exciting scenarios. Baseball, a beautiful game, has an innat…

    I absolutely hated Gerrit when I was first introduced to it. And I absolutely agree with what you've said.

    Holy crap, I just realized this is why I've pasted the text instead of URL all these years!

    Funny, I started my obsession about two months ago. I've basically always had Sunday at the Village Vanguard somewhere in my rotation for the last 10 years, but I've only started b…

    This is very insightful. Like, I've been on the other side of this (hoping this experienced new hire will fix up some of the mess I don't have time to do), and have probably never …

    We're seeing a lot of articles starting to praise the use of psychedelics. This seems a bit dangerous - these are serious drugs that can potentially mess you up - I'm not saying th…

    If you like this stuff, I recommend checking out the UK show 'Time Team'. Each episode they do an archaeological dig spanning three days, to see if they can piece together what was…

    Yeah, I assumed that a quality burr grinder is more important for fine grinds than coarse; I guess that's probably not true. I'll give it a shot, thanks. I've only been using the f…

    I have an AeroPress, a french press, and a Clever Dripper. While I like the AeroPress, I don't find it makes enough coffee in one go. The Clever Dripper is basically a french press…

    Curious: I have an Encore and I still get a bit of fine sludge. I'm grinding on about 21. What setting are you using?

    Yes, vim has a multiple cursor plugin that is useful for things like this: https://github.com/terryma/vim-multiple-cursors . It's not as good as sublime in my experience, and I hav…

    I'm just leaving this on in the background on the home theater PC, and switching back to it from the Roku to check in on things. Truly amazing.
