I don't think slippery-slope is an appropriate argument to make here, or really anywhere. To answer the UI elements on the bottom, I'm not sure I actually press the Send button at all, instead opting for a keystroke depending on the client.

Whatever you do when you build your client, do me one UI favor: Reverse the fields when composing. Body, then subject, then addressees, then the Send button. Think of all the headaches due to accidentally-sent mails the world over.

I'm finding more and more often that the best way to teach someone about a feature of their own favorite text editor is to threaten to walk them through doing it in vim. Magically, they've found the plugin or option before I can make it bac

The accomplishment is training myself to run as close to default as possible. I've gotten very accustomed to using NERDTree, for example, but that's because I never really took the time to learn to use netrw correctly. I seek to correct tha

More and more I feel like I should wean myself off NERDTree and back onto netrw like a grown-up. It would reduce the number of plugins I use to zero, and that would be an accomplishment.

I use shiftit because I miss awesomewm since my work machine is a Mac now. Shiftit is fantastic.

19 is too many. I use one: NERDTree, and I bind Leader-n to NERTTreeToggle. It's invaluable to me.

Nice. I've got a minor obsession with alternative ways of displaying the time of day. I've made a canvas clock or two of my own, and I used http://www.let.rug.nl/kleiweg/abclock/ glued to my root window for the longest time. I like that y

Reminds me of this: http://www.cs.utexas.edu/~pstone/Papers/bib2html/b2hd-trr11.... Looks like he's redesigned his homepage since I got my degree, so I can't immediately find the animations he used to have to illustrate the method.

I already said the profession wasn't part of the consideration. Asking the child if what the teacher said is true is seen as an affront on the author's character as a person, not as a teacher, so it's reasonable for them to take offense at

They're not speaking as a teacher, but as a person with integrity, someone who endeavors to tell only the truth, especially in a situation as grave as the discipline of a child under their watch.

I wonder what this would look like in a two-column view, with one column for discussion, and a smaller margin to the side for metadiscussion. Maybe some kind of mechanism to boot a single comment to one side or the other, and an option as a

Yeah, I've found that over the years my .vimrc gets shorter and shorter because I rewrite it from scratch with each new environment, taking with me only what I remember through everyday use. I'm down to 30 lines now, counting whitespace.

You might try using sessions instead. In my vimrc, I have this line: nnoremap <Leader>q :mks!<CR>:qall!<CR> And in my .bashrc I have this line: alias vv=vim -S Once you have all the files you want o

I was expecting some kind of geek-oriented MREs. Of course, if you ask the right lab rats, MREs are already geek-oriented.

But cobblestone, wood, and even charcoal and water are infinite resources in the game. The problem isn't the supply of resources, it's the short-sightedness of the players in the game that figure it's easier for them to mine cobblestone fro

I wonder if a project like Andi-Land, or another similar game or even a Zorklike, built around natural language parsing would be the right way to teach a language like Lojban. edit: Oh, someone's already done Colossal Cave.

I think a lot of the inertia is due to the fear that deleting an account could invalidate your purchases with that account. I've bought a few games and DLC packs myself--there's a lot of content I own* that I'd suddenly lose out on. It may
