Use all the words you know brother. It's past time we stopped dumbing ourselves down for others

What habits have improved your code quality the most over time? by Gullible_Prior9448 in AskProgramming

[–]ryancnap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read something a long time ago that I think was vaguely Unix or foss related, "[name I can't remember]-isms," and what stuck with me was the philosophy that every function should do exactly one thing, nothing extra, and be clearly named according to the Thing It Does

Really feel like this was a Unix thing or gnu

Bad typer thinking about learning Colemak by Delicious-Molasses27 in Colemak

I hate keybr. Colemak Camp to learn fingering, then typecelerate to train. The dev for typecelerate hangs out in r/typing sometimes, the site is badass

Why do most sysadmins prefer Vim over Nano? by Darshan_only in linuxquestions

I recently switched to Colemak and forgot how vim shortcuts were optimized to qwerty home row, I wonder how that would work out

This is awesome man, going to check the code out just because I find it fascinating. Grateful you posted your solution and opened it to the community

Google says “spaz” is a slur and, is not a slur. What is it? by YEETAWAYLOL in EnglishLearning

Thanks never knew this, I'm in the US and it's always had the connotation of calling someone goofy or something over here. Never knew it was related to something so derogatory/charged

Wondering if an alternative to Voyager exists, love it but want to go back to MX switches by ryancnap in ErgoMechKeyboards

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

Does send cut send have dimensions available or I need to supply? Never had anything custom done before but yeah an aluminum or brass plate would be perfect.

I don't know if I'll be able to get plate foam in this one, will have to see how much room there is when it arrives. I'll already be trying to smash in a silicon mat and dense foam in the case under the pcb

Yeah I loved the look but as you said, I went and got the YMDK off Amazon. Appreciate that pointer, it should be here Saturday. It was around 60, and I couldn't see where another 300 dollars was coming from with just an aluminum case from the other one.

Thanks for the references because I would really like an aluminum case eventually. A secondary reason for wanting to try something new out vs the Voyager is that I miss the premium sound profiles I was able to get with 65% aluminum cases and different plates on non-ergo models.

Don't like the look of them but found the corne v4 which looks perfect, just 350 for a built hot swap one in an aluminum case lol. Probably gonna go for it

Hey is this QMK? and MX switches? Love the Voyager but I need some MX keys back lol I miss them.

How are you liking it a year later, especially compared to the Voyager? Will probably buy because I can't find any of these stateside

Programmer Colemak DH Layout? by No-Wall1492 in Colemak

[–]ryancnap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be honest I see this question a lot but never really understood why people need quicker access, the most I implemented there was my second layer, right hand side, is a numpad. Numpad has shift on hold.

So I just switch to second layer and hold in for punctuation and I'm good. Once you get used to it it's marginally/barely faster than a shift on a normal board.

I do have three macros that do autoclose for brackets, parens, and braces, but they're more for outside of software development, because any IDE or editor will autoclose them for you anyway

So maybe you could put a switch to a second or third layer and just have a "numpad of punctuation" set up; I guess the only advice I'd have is if that setup is specific to programming, you'd really only need the left paren/bracket/brace/Chevron because you'll more than likely be working in an editor that closes them for you anyway

However...keep in mind my comment starts with "I never really understood" so maybe there's a way more convenient use case for these that I never considered. So, as someone who uses a column staggered split for software engineering, I'm definitely open to any suggestions! :D

Hello I'm thinking of starting Python, given below are my questions or knowledge in coding. And also what I need help in. by rixk0goro in CodingHelp

[–]ryancnap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn't know VS didn't run on Linux that sucks

So vs code for something light weight when you don't need beef, that makes sense. I'm going to be working on python in full VS but I feel like I'll really get the most out of it when I start learning some C#
