  • I think you’re misunderstanding/I’m not explaining well.

    Accessing emotions is hard for a lot of us because we’ve been trained to clam up. But without that external factor, it wouldn’t be.

    But when we do actually do it, it now takes effort and strength when it probably shouldn’t.

    But the physical loss of control when, for example, crying, makes us physically vulnerable as well as emotionally.

    I can see why times in history, having v people be scared and breaking down would jeopardize themselves or others. But we’ve magnified that, or lost the nuance.

    Crying or raging or withdrawing in camp is safe, on a hunt or while driving a truck is the exception not the rule.

    I wonder if this is a modern human problem or just a human problem


  • Maybe I’m off but… they do make you weak, right?

    And we don’t just let emotions happen sometimes, we should acknowledge they are always there to one degree or another. There may be times when having a brave face is what is needed, but for most people most of the time, it isn’t

    So, the real takeaway should be “you don’t need to be strong all the time, in fact, you can’t”




  • It’s well worth learning, you can use vim motions In lots of apps (or they have vim plugins) and even some websites will let you navigate with hjkl and search with / etc

    There used to be a web based vim game to help you learn, vim tutor maybe?

    Any time I’m forced to select text with a mouse it feels like a massive ball ache.

    Don’t get me started on editing text on an iPad, they have gone out of their way to make selection and editing, like changing a URL, a total nightmare.
