I hate Node and NPM so much that I have a physical reaction to just seeing the words now.
I already disliked Node & NPM quite a bit, but the hatred and disgust got to the point it is now after having to write a CI/CD pipeline in Groovy/Jenkins for a Node site that that our devs were building. I had to automate the build/deployment of Satan's favorite framework in Satan's favorite language. I came pretty close to quitting.
It's out the door now, but I'm in the middle of reimplementing the pipeline in Github Actions so I don't drink myself to death when they come knocking to do it again.
I've been using Linux professionally for a couple of decades and using it altogether since like 1996. I never knew about the timeout
command. I'm gonna have some fun with that.
I wonder if I can set someone's shell to it...
VSCode is what made me finally switch away from vim for anything but minor edits. It's just too good.
I did set up vim keybindings in it, though.
I first settled on vim as a teenager because I was a fan of... performing surprise penetration tests.
It defaults to opening files read-only, so you don't have to worry about the access/modified time on the file changing if you open one for... science reasons.
Man, this comment made me feel a little embarrassed at myself. I saw the shortcuts and thought about how I have a tradition of going to the top of the file when I'm done editing and about to save/quit. I always hit the shortcut for it and think "gg boys! Good game" and then quit out of vim.
Stop judging me.
You should settle on Liftoff because some of my code is running in it!
Or not. But it'd be pretty cool if you did.
Not sure what version you're on, but the "compact" view in Liftoff now (I'm on version 0.10.9) is actually compact:
It's true, at least for me. I can actually control the focus now instead of digging down a rabbithole of <random topic here> for 6 hours at 3am.
If I'm going down that rabbithole now, it's because I want to.
Quick editing for me is in vim. Anything else is in Visual Studio Code. Which I have set up with vim keybindings.
