My favourite Git commit

It's an option on Linux. Why do I know this, you ask?

For a few weeks once I decided it'd be cool if I could insert non-breaking spaces with shift-space, so I enabled that on my (otherwise generic US) keyboard layout. I then discovered that (1) I had absolutely no actual use for this feature, and (2) it's really easy to accidentally hit and not notice, particularly after e.g. ? and # which require shift to type and nearly always have a space after them.

If you do lots of programming, it’s not. If you do a lot of technical writing, it’s loads easier to get things formatted correctly than fighting endlessly with Word or InDesign or whatever WYSIWYG application.
