I use it because it's installed by default on Linux desktops. That's not important to me now—I'm currently using Neovim compiled from source—but it was important when I was first learning to code.

I could probably switch to Emacs using Evil, but I don't see a compelling reason to.

I know this is a crazy idea, but maybe we should stop buying locked-down IOT devices?

Solving a Recaptcha doesn't require a Google account.

I checked the website, a Lenovo and two Samsungs are listed as supported and not discontinued.

I don't see the problem here. The regex itself is exactly the same, it's just that different languages have different string literal syntaxes (and some have dedicated regex syntax, thus solving the problem of double-escaping).

The only regex engine where this is a problem is Vim's, because there are characters that a special unless escaped, and characters that are normal but become special when escaped. And as if that wasn't enough, there are config options to determine which characters those are. My usual practice is to prefix all Vim regexes with \v so that all the special characters are at least consistent.

It sounds to me like the Linux macbook drivers are worse than the drivers for other hardware. Which is a problem, but on the other hand I don't see a reason anyone would buy Apple's overpriced hardware and put up with glued-in batteries, soldered on SSDs, display cables that disconnect if you open the screen too much, crappy keyboards, thermal throttling, etc., if they weren't married to Mac OS.

Plus, with how the T2 chip is going you might not even be able to boot Linux on a Macbook in a few years.

>Doesn't working at a FAANG company imply that you are better than average, considering the status of these companies, their rigorous interview processes, and so on?

No.

Even if the mask is 10% effective that's still better than nothing.

I've been using Linux for years and have encountered this problem exactly zero times.

There's an addon called Enigmail that does exactly this.

If they don't consent they can just block Google with their robots.txt.

That's not actually how it works. What happens when you subscribe to notifications is that your browser gives the website instructions for it to send notifications to the browser vendor's notification service. Your browser only polls Mozilla's servers or Google's servers or Apple's servers and all notifications are relayed through that.

Right now the defaults are unencrypted DNS handled by ISPs which in the US have explicit legal permission to sell your data.

It really isn't a Perl 5/Perl 6 thing. Neovim is a fork of Vim, they are 99.99% compatible.

You're overcomplicating the problem.

    void accept_string(const char *a, size_t a_length);

is good enough. It has the additional advantage that you can give it a substring out of a larger string without copying it.

The "cost of the toilets" here refers to the operating cost, not the fixed costs.

The difference is that if a web store accepts crypo they don't need to worry about the payment processor oligopoly cancelling them.

It's useful for resizing splits and scrolling.

Firefox also has profiles. (about:profiles)
