Regularly disappointed there isn't a better solution on Windows (other than Launchy).

Mind you, regularly disappointed I have to actually use Windows on a daily basis so.

gaving··on He got 1%, we can't hire him

    - people that put their percentage symbols in the wrong place

I love vim, but:-

Can't help but think the Vesper guys wished they had waited until next year.
gaving··on Relative Line Numbers in Vim
Step 1: Install https://github.com/tpope/vim-unimpaired

Step 2: Use the convenient 'cor' mapping for toggling 'relativenumber'

gaving··on Plans for Vim 7.4
"Besides that, if you are maintaining runtime files, please send me any pending updates."

Sure feels like 2013.

gaving··on Why time is not running out
That "list of things I’d want to do by the time I turn 30" list is so utterly cringe-worthy.

Go to the moon? Reduce India’s poverty by at least 10%? Really?

gaving··on Linus Torvalds: Is Engadget really that stupid? Just corrupt? Trolling us all?
oh look another Linus Torvalds Google Plus link
gaving··on LinkedIn sitemap.xml
I agree, it just beach-balled Safari here.
gaving··on Why it is Awesome to be a Girl in Tech

    When I started as a developer in the UK I earned a bit less than £30k a year
    and wondered: How can whole families live of this? How can anyone save money
    for a mortgage? 

    [...]

    It might sound arrogant but since I am an IT contractor I don’t have to think
    twice about that Halston Heritage dress I fell in love with the other day, I
    just buy it.
Yeah, you're right, that does sound arrogant.

+1 for ultisnips, definitely the superior option when it comes to templating.
gaving··on App.net funded with $500,000.
The former, just hell of a bland way to build things these days (even though it is great). Even if it was skinned or something it would go a long way of making it stick out a bit.
gaving··on App.net funded with $500,000.
...bootstrap? :/
gaving··on Man Tries to Live an Open Source Life for a Year
Yeah, your EFI won't be open source.

More like "I used linux for a year"

gaving··on Google search's new basic calculator
builtin zcalc's good if you're a zsh user:-

    seth:~% which calc
    calc: aliased to noglob zcalc
    seth:~% calc ((8*8)/8)*8
    64
gaving··on Google search's new basic calculator
Interesting, works for:-

http://www.google.com/search?q=9/10

But not:-

http://www.google.com/search?q=9/11

Also seems like it could be much smaller, since it's following this increasing trend to devote less and less screen real-estate to search results.

gaving··on Step by step from jQuery to Backbone
Really nice way of explaining things.
gaving··on Sparrow acquired by Google
How incredibly awful.
gaving··on The future is here, goodbye Rails
