Having used evil-mode as my main driver for years, I can confirm that it truly works as expected. Requires some setup though. I used https://github.com/doomemacs/doomemacs to do the heavy lifting though.

Same I love my ligatures to death. And there are some interesting goodies. I find the author take on `tmux` being unecessary interesting, albeit it's a quite divisive opinion. Nevertheless, it's refreshing to see the status quo be

The delay in between typing and seeing it rendered, drawing large portions of text (which matters if you spend a lot of time in term based editors) etc ... It's very subjective: some folks (me included) will notice the difference and f

Disclaimer, I love handwriting. TL;DR handwriting = write only + self-expression I think that handwriting and its constraints, lead to a different mindset from when you're typing on a keyboard: - It's write Only; You can't er

While I'm not sure I see as much games being review bombed for political reasons in my sources for video game reviews, I strongly agree with you that it's really hard nowadays to find high quality reviews. It's always been ba

I'm wondering if that has to do with the time spent writing Clojure code? I have only wrote LISP code during uni and on pet projects and I always feel like the parentheses are making things easier to visually process. The AST is explic

That's an ambitious goal, I'm not sure to see how that would be maintainable on the long run. On a much smaller scale, if anyone is interested, I maintain a black list focused on those code snippet content farms that gets in the w

To shed some lights on why power sliding is so unreliable, doing so requires to be familiar the surface on which you’re attempting it. Being familiar with it means that you basically failed to and fell down multiples times before getting it

Regarding the weight, it’s a different position when you’re holding it at arms length while playing. You don’t hold your iPad in the air while reading, you put it against your knees or something else!

If anyone wants to give a try, it's worth noting a few things if you come from vim: - if you are on osx, you'll may find the gui rendering quite laggy if you are using a Retina display. Using the terminal will make it snappy again

I would say that what areally changes the game is to use evil (vi style bindings, 95% stays the same) with Emacs so you keep the muscle memory and you can keep making use of the common ex commands. I have gone back and forth between vim and

May I advise to give a try to Doom instead? It has less ambitious objectives [1] and feels much snappier while providing a similar experience (vim-like, out of the box) Also, if you enjoy the experience provided by emacs + evil, giving a tr

"near-0 resistance" nails it. As a Vim user, I consider the whole productivity thing about it quite over-rated. Yes it's efficient, yes it's faster, but in the end, anyone with a decent editor is going to go faster after a while. The point

Well parsing the vimrc might be too much as it would require a full compatibility layer and I highly doubt it'll ever happen. Using vanilla lighttable config wouldn't bother me, even if I have to rewrite most of it. It's a different editor

They do make money out of it, not that much but they do. Most of the time, it's so small that we don't have a clue on why they do it. For sure there must be some sort of gold diggers trail spawning vocations, but they wouldn't do it if it w

A such mode had been advertised. You can read on http://www.chris-granger.com/2012/04/15/light-tables-numbers... that Chris is a vim user and they'll use CodeMirror to provides such keybindings. My main concern is that being vim'ish isn't

This reminds me Cython who provides optional types to speed up the critical path. The speed gains are pretty impressive. Having a such tool in Ruby would be wonderful !
