One thing I like about vim - which I use literally daily - is that if you time-traveled like 30 years into the past, it would still have the same bindings.
That is actually relevant today b/c when you ssh into a cluster computing / linux farm environment, there is no "mouse", no "clicking", no "selecting", etc., there is only what you can accomplish with your keyboard. Nano, pico etc. do exist - except of WHEN THEY DO NOT!!:-P - but vim is just EVERYWHERE. Regardless of how often I actually make use of that fact, I enjoy the confidence that it gives me that it is there for me when I need it:-).
Similarly for Unix shell scripting, and perl, vs. a language like Python where you never quite know what you are going to get irt to different versions on some other machine that you do not control. I mean, it's great when it actually works but...
Then again, to each their own, and I begrudge nobody their preferences, especially if it suits what they are doing in the moment:-).
Hehehe, Oh Canada... :-) Don't you know that you are using the ~~correct~~ "wrong" temperature system - the only sensible one is based on how many pinkies were on the toe of the king's son's aunt's cousin's horse 200 years ago. I am sure you will agree with me that nothing else makes close to that degree of common sense - on THAT much at least we are SURE to agree! 🙃
Cowboy hat? :-P
But I am open to suggestions if you have any...
Indeed I wear a beanie the whole winter, whenever I can get away with it.:-D But in 100 degree weather, it wouldn't work quite as well...:-P.
I wear a Fedora sometimes - AC can get cold and my hair isn't as thick as it used to be... it just seems easier than converting to Judaism to be able to wear a Yamaka:-P.
That's... a LOT of frog hands you have there...
100% this is it.
Just a quick note that in the USA, unless there is a sports logo on it, cap = MAGA hat, sorry, dems the rules.
But Breaking Bad hat, now that is a damn fine argument that you made there!? :-P
