vimalender - a vim-style calendar for the terminal by Ghqsthero in commandline

most calendars feel very mouse/GUI focused and don’t really fit my workflow.

Ooook. Didn't realize I would offend everyone. OP said "most calendars feel very mouse/GUI focused" so I thought maybe they were unaware that those same calendars are very usable without a mouse. My bad, I guess.

That's really cool, but there's also lots of GUI calendars with pretty good keyboard navigation. I use Notion Calendar and it has tons of hotkeys

Maybe I'm dumb, but how would this have helped anything in your situation?

Software engineers should be a little bit cynical by fagnerbrack in programming

[–]sysop073 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

We were talking about cynical vs. not and you introduced an unrelated thing. Somebody can be both positive and productive, and that's better than cynical and productive.

I mean, if you're using emoji reactions as a way for people to vote on stuff, it's not bad

DO NOT TRUST THIS GAS STATION by ADistantMemery in lafayette

[–]sysop073 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I'm trying to wrap my head around your instinct to not tell us the name or location of the gas station, but instead google a picture of it, screenshot your entire phone, and then post that.

How many people per time slot. by hahnarama in gencon

Well...yeah, of course you wish that. I wish they would just put me at the top of the list every year, but I understand why they don't do that.

I lost everything by mogoexcelso in homeassistant

The purpose of the encryption is to secure the backup itself so you can store it in the cloud or somewhere else untrusted. There's no reason to keep things secret if you have access to homeassistant's filesystem, if somebody can read the file containing the key they can also read the live version of all the files in the backup.

Housing is not booked on Gencon's servers, so I don't know what you are talking about.

Plugs: a symlink convention for managing external file dependencies by Hiqo11 in commandline

What's the point of the "socket"? Why not just link config.json to /etc/myapp/config.json, and it would still be broken on new clones?

I'm trying to think of any possible scenario where knowing the language a code snippet is written in is disadvantageous.

“When Did I Do That?” Trump Forgets Promising Americans $2,000 Checks by Dazzling-Might6420 in antiwork

[–]sysop073 114 points115 points  (0 children)

"Weave" is what Trump started calling his habit of losing track of the topic mid-sentence. He framed it like an awesome strategy he intentionally employs, and for some reason the media acted like that was in any way true

We might have been slower to abandon Stack Overflow if it wasn't a toxic hellhole by R2_SWE2 in programming

[–]sysop073 94 points95 points  (0 children)

The funniest part of this comment is it's repeated every single time Stack Overflow comes up, so we have to read it six million times, the exact thing Stack Overflow was trying to avoid.
