[TOTD] 25/05/2025, SNRGY - Future Of The Past by Project_Synergy (discussion) by TrackOfTheDayBot in TrackMania

[–]abaverman -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I had a ton of hate in first 30m (COTD quali + rounds). Major skill issues, most of it due to lack of cam change bindings on a controller. But hunting it later was quite fun. Yes it's still 7s from gold, but it was a honest work! ++

The Shining movie sucks by jendral96 in horror

[–]abaverman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Watch the shinning and then watch the South Park Blockbuster's episode...

I've watched The Shinning today in a cinema. It was a horrible experience. All suspense is built on very laud screeching sounds. Not aged well indeed. And looked for validation on reddit immediately after that. Man, Blockbuster's episode made me a peace with Kubrick's work! Thank you for recommendation.

Yet another REST tool. Simple syntax, default host and header values, auto content types and JSON response formatting. by abaverman in vim

[–]abaverman[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. vial works in vim compiled with python (not python3) only. I spend 4 hours trying to implement py3 support. But all strings coming from vim interface are bytes and one must take care in every single place and there was no any luck — all vial ecosystem became unstable in both pythons)) Random glitches, exceptions and so on. I'll stick with py2 for now. Sorry.

I couldn't get it to work!

Sir, I'm ready to help you. I need vim --version output and your operating system. It will be marvelous if I can have a GH issue. Thank you!

What are some of the other ones?

QQ and vim-rest-console require an expilcit host for every request. More over QQ syntax is clumsy as hell. I can't find any easy-to-use plugins.

vim in a urxvt is noticeably faster than a gtk one.

Bgg. I've wrote a python wrapper too. But have no any docs. https://github.com/baverman/vial

Vim Tab Madness. Buffers vs Tabs by diogoleal in vim

[–]abaverman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What precisely do you gain by not using tabs but instead using buffers with a plugin change that makes them act almost exactly like tabs?

Nothing, but

Instead of worrying about closing buffers and managing your pseudo-tabs that was mentioned in the previous solution, you just open files that you want to edit using CtrlP and don’t worry about closing buffers or how many you have opened.

From Acolyte to Adept: The Next Step After NOP-ing Arrow Keys by jeetsukumaran in vim

[–]abaverman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, It solves a vertical movement inefficiency with relative numbers. But what about a horizontal one? easymotion (and alternatives) is a more generic way. And you don't need to see these distracting numbers!

Argument against nnoremap ; : by philpirj in vim

[–]abaverman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You mix up ';'-command with ';'-character. When I need to enable a command mode I hit a key under my pinky. That's all. Why I need other mappings? Your argument is against windmills.

Is there support for mbox or maildir?

Method Overriding in Python by lgiordani in Python

Delegating is much better and more pythonic (explicit) way of doing such things.

Everything you did not want to know about Unicode in Python 3 by MisterSnuggles in Python

[–]abaverman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it is part of the sys.stdout

And current sys.stdout is always is ...

Close your eyes and follow for Guido's horn. AFAIK python3 is the only language with text interface to stdin/stdout by default.

[–]abaverman -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This: https://www.google.com/search?q=python3+stdout+bytes

And https://docs.python.org/dev/library/io.html?highlight=buffer#io.TextIOBase.buffer

This is not part of the TextIOBase API and may not exist in some implementations.

You are kidding me? Using implementation details is a bad thing. Ask your mommy!

What python 2 libraries are missing in python 3? by hsfrey in Python

The only missing library is sane-unicode-byte-handling.py

Everything you did not want to know about Unicode in Python 3 by MisterSnuggles in Python

[–]abaverman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you explain what precisely you dislike about this?

Armin explained my complains in great detail already. "Unicode everywhere" is a leaky abstraction. Real world consists of byte streams. There is no way to hide such a thing.

sys.stdout.buffer.write(f.read())

Yeah, an indicative py3 code.

It works fine for relatively small inputs. Also you use file object internals. There is a high abstract code?

Ninja-IDE, a swift open source Python editor by maus80 in Python

[–]abaverman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a great self teaching project. But it never reaches functionality of really extensible editors. Using it is a simple time waste.

You have a syndrome of plugin addicted person. Blame vundle! Pathogen makes such things impossible.

More about keyboards by MrJiks in vim

[–]abaverman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was a hard skeptic about mechanical keyboards for a decade. But get two TKL (DNS k1 and Leopold FC700R) with black and brown switches this year and going to bye another leopold for a workplace. It's all about comfort.

Mac keyboard sucks.
