  • We’re not facing a problem, we’re in a predicament.

    We always have, we always will

    That’s a statement of religious faith. We have barely ever even existed so it’s plainly nonsense, and there is no rule of the universe that we must continue to exist or that we cannot unfixably destroy our planet’s ability to support us. You’re just baselessly asserting “they’ll think of something”.







  • I don’t even now how anyone keeps track of them and finds the ones they want. And how can you possibly do that quicker than just going to the page afresh.

    Part of working on a project for me is assembling links to important pages. It may be days, weeks or months later that I want to come back and there are the links. And of course, anything generically or regularly useful is just a bookmark as you say.

    It really seems like people keep tabs open just to keep a list of useful pages. There are much easier and more effective ways to do that.

    it always entertains me when a vim aficionado regurgitates the “just missing a good editor” joke, given that one of the editors Emacs offers is a pretty comprehensive clone of vim.

    (personally, I never had any problem with the default editor when I migrated to it from vi, though I was using a keyboard that already had ctrl next to a.)
