Nope. Yelling isn't okay. Parents are human and may do it anyway, but it's always a mistake and should be treated as such (except in the case of danger as mentioned above). It absolutely should be avoided as much as possible. It's an incredibly harmful thing to do (for any relationship, actually).

Yelling is never okay unless there's imminent danger and yelling is needed to prevent it.

I'm a little confused. Are these translations not in source control? Can you not revert the changes since it was introduced?

Sure sounds like an LLM.

It's not exactly like vim, and there are plenty of vim plugins that don't work with it (anything vim8 onward). There has never been a 1-to-1 correspondence, the gulf widens as both develop different features with different philosophies.

The most egregious offense on Neovim's part that I can't get past is the removal of access to the shell in which you run vim (via :!, :w !, etc.). Vim is so much more capable of being closely intertwined with the shell, whereas neovim requires everything to be done through terminal buffers (speaking of which, vim's terminal buffers are a lot better than Neovim's).

Also, Lua is really overrated and worse for vim scripting than vim9script (which is both more native to vim and faster).

Most of vim is not emulated. It's very surface-level and limited. The closest is evil mode for emacs, which is decent, but still lacks a fair bit. The emulators in Intellij and VsCode are paltry in comparison to what vim can do.

She has always been pretty shit. That much is indisputable.

Voting for her was still the correct thing to do (and what I did), because the degree of Trump's fascism and corruption is much greater and more dangerous.

But it's incredibly naive to think this behavior of hers is in any way new. It's exactly who she's always been.

My company did the same, yet they approve of tools that have shown countless security breaches (such as Microsoft Copilot).

It's a complete joke.

The OP is on feddit.uk, so most likely not an American.

The question is also just that, a question. Not an expectation.

That's why vim is so great: it has a ton of power built right into it without customizations, and it's already installed on basically any unix-like system. Unlike, say, vscode, it can do a ton of stuff out of the box without any plugins at all.

It's a tool with a medium-high skill floor and incredibly high skill ceiling. It rewards investment and is something that is able to accommodate one's growth in skills rather than holding them back with limitations like typical editors do. Its built-in scripting is a big part of that and is something that really sets it apart from editors like vscode. And it's much, much faster and lighter weight/less memory-intensive than other editors.

It's not as big of a deal as you might think. You still have a lot of your muscle memory from regular keyboards. It might take a little while to adjust when switching between the two, but it's not that bad.

If you switch between the two enough, you can actually type on both equally well.
