Today I faced an unexpected challenge in a high-pressure environment. I experienced a rapid loss of structural support (my trousers), which led to a complete pivot in my physical trajectory. I didn't just fall; I deep-dived into a new ecosystem (the toilet).

This experience taught me three things about resilience: 1. Always ensure your foundations are secure. 2. When you hit rock bottom, make sure it's a splash. 3. Failure is just an opportunity to wash off and start fresh.

Grateful for the growth. #Resilience #GrowthMindset #Agility #LessonsLearned

There are a few things I take away from this post:

1. If you care about the physical manifestation of a product, maybe Amazon.com is not the place to be shopping for it.

2. If the product as it arrives is substantially different from that ordered, it seems dishonest of the seller.

3. While the physical book is a source of joy for me as well, I feel lucky to live in a time where I can own a copy of a book that only a handful of people value, for a reasonable price.

From the article, verbatim:

Post title is misleading.

The question that comes to mind for me after reading your comment is how can a question about a game require that much context?

Path of exile is complex, just check the skill tree , skills and gems:)

It could almost be used as a benchmark good models are in math, memory, updated information etc

I laughed out loud when the author wrote 'it replaced nano'.

So you are claiming to have tried dozens of editors, discarded them, only to land on nano as your daily driver?

If that's true, this person must be a character.

He implied replacing nano was the first step, before using it for more complex (software development) tasks. First use it just for quick one-off edits of /etc/blah.conf then graduate to using it for longer editing sessions.

No, nano is not my daily driver. It's what I use when I want to quickly edit a file with root access because, funnily enough, I'm not in the habit of running my primary editor with superuser permissions :) Nano is a low-hanging fruit that was the first of many tools I gradually massaged the editor into replacing.

No, the author used Howl for their normal work and Nano occasionally. I would guess when working in the terminal

I know discussing HN behavior is off topic, but parent's comment is a perfect example of something unpopular that adds to conversation.

We shouldn't use votes to squelch opinions we don't hold. We should use them to improve the discourse.

It's funny. When I have a topic I am interested and passionate about, and want to find an improvement or solution, I welcome the chance to have my ideas questioned. To explain them, to in turn question the alternatives others put forward.

In their frothing haste to put down my heresy here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47307056, not one single commenter took just a second to understand what I actually wrote. Most of the responses aren't even coherent on their own, much less address my questions. I did not advocate for the status quo, I did not even assert OP was wrong. I invited them to provide some reasoning for their proposal. Quite troubling, even cultish behavior.

I try not to assume malice (i.e. Hanlon's Razor) when it happens to me. Unfortunately the mob rule seen on other user-curated sites seems to be infectious.

I try to gently call it out here when I see it, though, because HN is the one user-curated site where I still feel that people come to get to 'truths' versus 'agendas'. I want it to stay that way!

Yeah, macros are definitely helpful at times, but not as much as one might think.

I think the same goes for multi-cursor, though.

Exactly the same for me. So far, there have been many challengers but the same champion (subjective, I know).

I came to read an article, and all I got was a crummy advertisement.

> free software fanatics have bullied and eager programmers

We must travel in different circles. I've been around a while, and I've never seen _any individual_ bullied for keeping their code closed source.

That said, I have an extreme bias toward only using open source code, for practical reasons, and I'm open about that.

If you have eyes closed how would you notice?
