I like to cum laissez-faire

Modal editing for just raw text input would actually be slower, because you also enter and leave Insert Mode. I find it’s very fast and powerful for navigating around the text, which you probably do a lot more than actually editing it. And when it does come to editing, there are a lot of higher-level tools (at least in Vim) for accomplishing things more quickly, like the ‘s’ command and ‘q’ macros.

I think getting into a mental “flow” state is really valuable, and muscle memory is important for being able to stay there. If your muscle memory is to navigate around using the mouse, that’s great, but Vim feels faster to me.

What if you spiralized a hot dog, made fried mac and cheese balls and put them on top with some cheese sauce, and then eat it like spaghetti and meatballs?

Tangentially related, I remember at one of my jobs being tasked (several years in a row) with updating the copyright year in all our source files’ headers.

Travel by land/sea is WAY more expensive and WAAAAAY more time-consuming than flying. If you can’t deal with a relatively short flight where there’s a chance that a child might make some noise, I’d recommend YOU take the land or sea route. Much more comfortable, please enjoy.

What the hell? You don’t know me or my kids, why are you coming at me about my parenting? You’re talking out of your ass about raising kids. They don’t go straight from babies to adults, there is a lot of in-between, trial-and-error. Sometimes they cry, in public even (gasp), and we handle it. Sometimes they misbehave and we handle it. They’re not going to learn anything by being locked away from society. And if being out in public with other people who might have children with them is so hard for you, maybe you should order in and watch Netflix.

You’re assuming a lot about a person’s situation who would be traveling internationally with a baby. They may not have a choice. In general, babies and their parents have as much right to exist in public as you do. Of course the courteous thing to do when your child is being disruptive is to try and calm them or remove them from the situation, but that’s not always possible. I’ve gone into a restaurant with a very happy baby that only turns sour after the food is ordered. All you can do sometimes is just try to mitigate it until you can get your food in to-go boxes and get out. Also worth noting that the main issue with flying for babies is the pressure change and not being able to deal with it. People will often yawn or chew gum to relieve it, and for babies you can give them a bottle or something chewy (depending on age) and it does the same thing.

“Sorry, it’s a two week voyage. Hope you brought plenty of diapers.”

And lawyers are pretty likely not staff at all.

This is why I use a bidet

Still pronounced “Senner Siddee”. The T is silent, so you can really put it anywhere.

Legumes, actually.

I got super sick from this. It probably didn’t help that I was trying soothe my upset stomach with more peanut butter.

I suspect there are a lot of “Rust devs” that are little more than kool-aid drinkers. Common refrains are that Rust is the fastest language, most type-safe language, and most powerful language. Rust certainly seems to move the state of the art forward in some ways, but you can still write garbage code in it.

I’ve worked with lots of different people in lots of different languages, and I think I’d rather good people in a bad language than the other way around by a mile.

If you squint it kinda looks like somebody doing that.
