Lifesaver! Without this, error handling in bash functions is a gigantic, unintuitive pain. Thank you for bringing this to my attention.

I don't "enforce" this but I do aim for it, and yes, I do partial squashing throughout my workday. As I work on a feature branch, I'll check in WIP commits as checkpoints, especially at EOD. I don't expect these to

Yeah code folding works for the visual scrub, but it's the "search within" feature that's missing. An example of my common use case is digging through a Bosh manifest file for a resource with a particular name, then find

I'm working with a 12k-line YML file with lots of sub-trees right now, and let me tell you, it's a gigantic pain in the butt. If it were JSON, I could navigate within a subtree by selecting & searching the text between the `{}

Agree. Dashes alone are worth the price of a MacBook Pro: <minus> for a hyphen, <option-minus> for an en-dash, <shift-option-minus> for an em-dash. Trivial to remember. Just as good is the way Apple handles diacritics. You

Are these screen recordings with narration or video recordings from a webcam? Personal preference of course, but I'd be less able to express myself in a video recording than in an audio recording or written document, out of pure self-c

I think the odd violent thought is to some extent normal. They certainly occur to me (tho I make no broader claim to my normalcy). Of course, if they're causing you anxiety, you find them intrusive, or you fear acting on them, you shou
