Cringe. The copy and paste buffer is inspired by vi btw. Do you have a problem with vi in addition to tmux?
That is to say, it's dead simple once it's explained to you. The issue is with documentation, not the keyboard shortcuts themselves.
Sublime Text and Jetbrains are also vi-inspired. For where Jetbrains doesn't go far enough there is a vim mode plugin. I would say these are strong indicators of vi's dominance among keyboard shortcut layouts.
The test script didn't share the load across processors so the author is rerunning the tests. It seems the graphs therefore are misleading (for now).
Nevertheless this is not as interesting as testing the M1 chip on the latest MacBook offering. I feel a bit misled but perhaps it was just my fondness for the M1 causing this bias.
> people insecure enough to join an IQ-restricted club
I don't understand this sentiment. There are race/ethnicity-restricted clubs, men-only clubs, athletic clubs, equestrian clubs, farmers clubs, car ownership clubs. However, when it's about IQ (something which you say you hold in disdain), suddenly out come the insults. Insecure nerds, right? They only have their insignificant test scores, they must be a despicable lot!
Did you ever stop to consider that people might be seeking something different, that this is their attempt at finding other people with similar interests? There is nothing wrong with one valuing their own high IQ test score.
Disclaimer: I have never taken an IQ test, but if I did I probably wouldn't get into Mensa, extrapolating from previous test scores and grades.
