Prepended this with a more informative title. This is an aggregate newsletter which I think is helpful if you're in the property management / real estate business. Hopefully this new title is a bit more informative, apologies for any misleading
I agree, This was a fun read. I also think this is a really excellent way to gain some experience, do something fun, and potentially hit on a big idea.
I can definitely see the excitement of creating something small but semi-viral on the internet
Right, The point was about configuration. I had a configuration that worked for a couple years, then I start a new job and the config breaks on the first 50+ line TSX file. Now I have to go and find the culprit, find a replacement plugin (in this case, yajs JS parser was slowing things down). and before I knew it, I was re-configuring everything again. I was more criticizing the ecosystem of plugins and how brittle some may be.
Yes, I was specifically talking about copying things to and from vim, with/without tmux. Maybe its not a huge issue to all, but I always forget when I set things up on a linux machine vs. Mac OSX
I have an interesting side project where I scrape websites / APIs on a weekly basis. I then take this scraped information and form an aggregate-style newsletter about a subject I really enjoy (Real Estate and Property Management). Thought HN might find this interesting, thanks!
