Last night Spotify decided to dredge up “November Rain” by GnR and I realized that I still have neurons devoted to a perfect memory of the lead flute part of a rock power ballad that I listen to once every 5 years. I don’t even play the flute.
And that flute part is the reason I’ve never quite gotten the hang of buffers in Vim.
Just throw out your name. You never call yourself by it, and they have these nifty little cards they give you to remind you of who you are and what you look like!
I feel like it’s more of a muscle memory rather than remembering each keybindings.
Just like my old phone’s pattern lock. I forgot what the hell I drew there, but when I picked it up, my thumb just put that in.
What a waste of muscle memory space
J/k but not really
Emacs for life, baby
Hope your pinkies are ok
Huh. That’s neat. Can’t say whether it works, as I Ctrl with my thumb using a thumb cluster on my Dactyl Manuform
It takes a bit of practice, but then it’s great.
C-x C-Y/Z
For me with this position even C-D/E would be uncomfortable. So how to go about that?
Use the opposite hand to press C?
Oh yeah. I literally have never pressend this button before and therefore forgot about it. blushes
pinkies? well everyone has to press enter
but Caps-Lock is rare occasion key
I use capslock for ctrl
Once you do this there’s no coming back.
Sorry, but why?
I’m used to Ctrl+Shift as palm combination, so I can’t figure why skip Ctrl
My enter key is on my dactyl manuforms thumb cluster
Evil mode for the win
The only thing better than vim keybindings for programming is vim keybindings for org mode (I know neovim has some org mode stuff but it isn’t the same as full blown org mode in emacs).
Yeah, evil mode worked pretty well when I tried it. But then I kept hitting things that just made me want to go back to neovim.
I used to be like Jarvis here, but I’m a convert. I actually was tired of using my mouse all the time, so one day while writing up some docs, I decided to give Vim a try.
Honestly, I hate to say it but, I can’t go back. It’s so nice to be able to do so much from the keyboard alone.
Neuralink? I use VIM
Can someone suggest a good way to lean VIM motions? I’ve been trying to use it as a VS Code extension but I don’t feel like I’m making any progress.
I want to move away from VSCode but I’m not comfortable doing that until I have a better understanding. :/
Try
vimtutoron the commandline.Interactive tutorial that takes place in vim itself :)
Thanks! I’ll do that! I guess I’m missing out since I was using a Vim extension rather than Vim itself.
I bet he doesn’t even use SOAP after going to the toilet.
I typically hope to get rid of SOAP by going to the toilet.
Literally me but Blender keybindings. I can only learn so many shortcuts, imma stick to Nano.
