I use the UHK keyboard which has butter smooth home row keys mouse movement so I never need a mouse anyway. https://ultimatehackingkeyboard.com/

This is like saying tractors won't steal agricultural hand-ploughing jobs, the people building the tractors will. Technically true. But... stupid.

To make this event type completely reproducible and measurable to the millisecond there could be a new cube product which uses LEDs to show the colors of a randomly scrambled cube and start the clock at the same moment too, while the solver is holding it. Clock stops the moment the cube is solved.

Do you really think that the couple hours it saves by having these maps to hand instead of a terrorist going to the station and making their own map of the public space is going to mean the difference between an attack and no attack? Get real. Let’s just get rid of all maps then hmm? Security risk.

When I was a kid my parents had a big physical encyclopaedia set. I used to lose myself in those things just as much as I scroll through stuff now. Just because in both instances, it’s “interesting”.

But my brain doesn’t necessarily discern between “good” interesting and “bad” interesting without me trying to work it out and guiding it.

Which I normally fail at.

Of course there's a lot of HN bitterness here. But I like Fig. I've been running my own heavily customised .zshrc for about a decade with loads of bells and whistles in terms of autocomplete and customised prompts and what not and it has been great and I've kept it current with cool new toys.

But I've dumped most of it in the last month for Fig. I like seeing command specific options, relevant to the current context, and in a long list which I can scan and scroll quickly.

I go to documentation MUCH less now and I'm faster with it. And that's most of what I care about.

Commence retaliations...
