Well, if you already know vim keystrokes, just use Spacemacs. The big win is easy discoverability: using the space bar as a menu-starter, and when you find the command you want, it tells you what key stroke you could have used instead.

Isn't digging easier than dealing with the ocean?

Over a decade ago, I read there was research on slippery foams that could be sprayed on a crowd or individual. There could still be injuries from falling, etc. But the sprayed would then find it difficult to hold anything or get back up.

Not saying this is the way to go, just wanted to point out an interesting tidbit.

I found this with a web search just now: https://www.military.com/defensetech/2003/04/15/slippery-sol...

The U.S. FCC's fairness doctrine "required licensed radio and television broadcasters to present fair and balanced coverage of controversial issues of interest to their communities, including by devoting equal airtime to opposing points of view." It was mostly repealed in 1987 under Reagan. A few provisions lasted a little longer.

I think some radio shows etc have greater ability to be polarizing with this out of the way, and our respective bubbles freer from outside disturbance.

Seriously please do try Spacemacs -- setup is basically just a git clone, then start emacs, then (if desired) toggle stuff on/off in the .spacemacs file

Why is that what you were thinking of? I know a guy who put on his socks and shoes to get to piano practice, wondering why his mom and sister were laughing during the whole car ride...

Have people vote once by ranking candidates. Then the computer can do the rounds.

Is there a connection between their opinion and how they came to be high-ranking?

Is it Java Shop Politics[0] at play?

I find their opinion frustrating.

This also deters the user from speeding between two lanes of traffic that has stopped ... a deed that carries with it some risk and that probably irks some drivers.

Highly recommend Tolstoy's Death of Ivan Ilyich. One alternative sequence is you can start at part II, read to the end, then read part I. Edit: My guess is part I is there to show the reader what his/her own reaction to death is, before he begins his lesson. http://www.lonestar.edu/departments/english/Tolstoy_Ivan.pdf

Haven't heard anything? You should be getting regular pings as they make sure they can reach you annually or more frequently.

Surely you use soap in a few key spots, right?

What was their payoff for pulling this trick?

Disagree, see my reply to your parent.

> You don't need to move your head at all to see a car...

But what I'm saying is the article's suggestion doesn't allow me to see something smaller like a motorcycle with the mirrors, and either I'd have to turn my head even further to see it with the mirrors in suggested position to check that area or -- worse yet -- I can't physically see that spot without the aid of a mirror.

This, and the other comments that say turning your head is still necessary.

I tried what the link suggests and had many instances where a motorcycle zipped by close to my car -- I didn't notice them until [what would have been] too late because I couldn't see the area next to my car easily that way. Now I have my mirrors adjusted so I can see motorcycles better, and I turn my head to check the remainder.

All humans are legally blind in their peripheral vision just a few degrees off-axis, so I make sure to focus where I claim to be checking.

I was in a start-up once where the results were deliberately slowed down to make a point that some unique business process was taking place.

The start-up failed for many reasons and this was one.

So store the excess with a gravity train and sell it back later. https://www.aresnorthamerica.com/

Maybe that's a solved problem so that was outside the scope/focus? https://isocpp.org/wiki/faq/compiler-dependencies#convert-to...

how does he pay the bills? and how about health insurance?

How have those projects been duds?

Do you resent being coerced into paying taxes to support the fire fighters and police and the infrastructure, etc that others believe should be in place?

Where do you draw the line between what we can all agree on and where you start to feel coerced into supporting what you call others' personal view of something?

How is that level of freedom different from anarchy?

Certain constraints on freedom can actually lead to greater freedoms. As someone mentioned above, there's greater freedom in taking a long break from work or in doing a career change in Norway than there is in the United States.

The surgeon chose to become a surgeon.

Are there places where enough people make the moral choice to support as high a standard of living as Norway?

Edit: I mean, it seems you're saying that there are enough good humans to support a nice enough society that we should all have that much free will. But is that what we find in real life?

Do libertarians think it's wrong for the federal government to require hospitals provide emergency care regardless of the patient's ability to pay? Surgeons are forced to operate, which violates their personal freedom?

Might those tugs affect its learning?

I don't think you addressed "how would a potential employer view that?"

You sound vindictive. I'd pass. The team doesn't need the drama, and the team can compete.
