Thanks, I use a Kinesis Advantage 2 and itโs a big help. Iโve found avoiding holding down keys, with thumbs or otherwise, has been the biggest help.
ouhh bet thats nice. im rocking some 50โฌ aliexpress print/pcb that i put some old switches/caps onto. legitimately impressed, best keyboard i ever used, never going back to traditional kbs.
I forgot that I was at work and did my big sneeze, not the work sneeze. The one where a startled deer looks straight into the camera, which then zooms out to a flock of pigeons taking off, and a crow makes a warning noise.
Someone dropped something in the adjacent lab. I hope it wasn't my fault.
tech influencers on twitter:
god i hate interacting with other people. i love my new bot that does it for me. life is so much better now that im just telling bots what to do and not talking to people. i canโt wait for everyone to be bots!
I empathize, we've had that happen within the last year too, even the same bathroom-over-kitchen floor plan.
And the extra test of patience: the kiddos don't have the skills to properly clean and sanitize that kind of mess.
Might be a good outcome to this. Water remediation folks want to take out 30 sqft of drywall to ensure the space btwn floors is fully dry. But my architect father-in-law thinks this is yagni and we can get away with just using a fan and space heater to let it dry out on its own ๐ค
Thankfully, the zero cost option seems to have worked out. Had fans pointed up at the ceiling for a couple days. Will have to patch up some water-damaged drywall, but think we can avoid opening up the ceiling ๐
Feel like we got lucky in this case. Maybe we'll find out in 10 years that we have wood rot thanks to not shelling out for the professionals ๐คทโโ๏ธ
Aaron Sorkin's The West Wing is among the subtlest of all propagandaโit is propaganda that everyone sincerely wishes could be true, and is dangerous specifically because it is not and cannot be.
The essential work of #programmingnotesfollow is building the theory of the problem + solution. Theory then enables creation of working code. In the end, the code is necessary, but it is not sufficient. Theory is indispensable. (cf. Peter Naur, 1985)

Most of programs use key chords, like Cmd-Shift-G, Ctrl-Alt-N and so on, you need to remember and press awkwardly several keys at once.
#Emacsnotesfollow uses key sequences, C-c then k then p then l.
If I forget after C-c k p then press C-h and help appears.
