i didn't mean dantes inferno but the operating system named after it :P

some people redo the keybinds completely, i find them rather useable. elisp might be a matter of taste, but certainly better than vimscript. most things can be configured with the built-in customize mode.

what i _really_ was talking about, to come back to inferno-the-os, is that it's a relatively slim, portable execution environment. the abstractions are different, but it's similar in spirit.

Stopping at the bluff by the river. Can't believe I stayed living in a city for so damn long.

First order of business, take care of your own damn parks. Don't complain to the govt, just fix it yourself.

My sister told me that my 15yo niece Indie was embroidering her own sneakers. “Cool,” I said, remembering how I used to doodle on mine. Then they sent me the photos. 🤯 They are STUNNING. Look at that. A TEENAGER DID THAT. 😍🐝🌸 #embroidery #embroidered #converse

If the UK ends up getting regime changed by people posting on Twitter, does that also qualify as Arab Spring ?

we strayed too far from what is just and true

@icedquinn Hamming gave this really interesting lecture on hiring, right? He said that at Bell Labs, the researchers had been in charge of hiring more researchers, but the business guys got ahold of it, and they stopped hiring off-putting people. Hamming went on, especially for research, you want someone that thinks unconventionally and someone with unconventional thoughts about physics often also has unconventional thoughts about appropriate behavior and personal hygiene.

I think, in general, HR does more harm than good in the hiring process.

@mangeurdenuage thanks, i only have grown fava beans so far. maybe I'll try sone of those next year :)
