Where is the "I did that" sticker with trump pointing at this article.

:(


Established in 2009. Who started as president that year?


established and operating since 2009- "Why did Trump do this?"


Remember when Net Nuetrality was the priority of hackernews and slashdot and basically all people in tech. Now it's a "leftist policy". We live in crazy times.

Overton window has definitely shifted to the right. Beign a normal person who values science is now considered "leftist". Its nuts.


There's also a bloc that's been working to try to retroactively redefine what "Net Neutrality" means.

Instead of the usual stuff like "consumers have rights" or "ISP monopolies are bad" or "utilities should just provide the product and not spy and manipulate", they want it to mean something closer to "no online community can moderate itself."

And that's the charitable version. The worse version involves rank hypocrisy and selective enforcement, where large social "networks" must be "neutral" to literal nazis, while somehow it's also OK to permaban for insulting Dear Leader.


The set of people who are "basically all people in tech" has changed a lot since then for a variety of reasons; it's not surprising that any given political issue from a decade ago might not have the same resonance today.


After 10 years I still have no shortcut key to "duplicate line up" which was an eclipse feature that I loved.

So I also hate jetbrains, give me my shortcut get guys!!


Cmd+d on MacOS duplicates the current line. Is that what you want?


That is "duplicate line down" -- I want "duplicate line up" which copies the current line to the line above the cursor. My open request been sitting in jetbrains "ignore it" for many many years.


I don’t really get the difference but why don’t you use macros for that?

You can achieve anything with macros and you can give shortcuts to a named macros.

Macros are in the Edit > Macros menu. Add a shortcut to a macro in Settings , Keymap > search Macros, right click on Play Saved Macro and Add Keyboard Shortcut.


Install ideavim and press “yyp” :-)


Its "yyP" :-)


I switched to Protonmail a month ago. It is patently inferior to gmail. Every day I get annoyed by some weakness in the UI that google had apparently just always solved without me ever having to think about it. For example, reading long email chains in the proton UI is horrific. I don't know what google did that made it natural to read and proton does so badly, but it is painful to read these long chains of emails. Another example is log emails from my servers are getting grouped together by Proton. Gmail had sepearated the logs into separate emails in a very natural way. These small annoyances add up and I'm not having a fun time right now with proton.


This is actually a pretty interesting observation as GMail, when it first came out, was just as clunky as all the other webmail clients. At the time, everyone was used to Yahoo!, MSN, etc. and Google was the odd one out with their webmail client.

This changed when they were the first folks out there to get a dynamic interface in the browser (some of you may fondly or not so fondly remember the days of DHTML, XMLHTTPRequest, and the like). Fast forward 10 or 15 years and now GMail is the standard by which everything else is measured.

I'm sure there are some things that are objectively better, but a surprising amount of preference comes from familiarity.


I'll never understand why people insist on using web based email.

Just install your favorite desktop + mobile mail apps and you're fine.

If that can't be done with Protonmail, and you want to move your email out of the US, suggest FastMail, based in Australia.


Searching email in local mailbox is a constant problem for me.

Nothing really support IMAP search.

Every mua sucks at large mbox file.

-- Edit: I am a happy fastmail user


FWIW I use Apple's default Mail apps w/ FastMail IMAP and don't have issues with search.

But I guess you mean search w/o local caching


Thunderbird's search works just fine for me with tens of thousands of mails.


It can be done with proton, or at least it used to be possible (Not sure, didn't check in a while) thanks to their bridge. A small local software you'd run that decrypt everything and provides a local imap server with the decrypted content


I use proton, but it is not better than gmail. The user interface is explicitly inferior, and that is the main thing I care about.


I would totally use it if they didn't charge for IMAP.


This will be the ONLY social media my kids are allowed to use.


you mean: invented


Yeah Claude Haiku (don't remember the version) did it first, they claimed it was because "it's smarter now" (it's still dumb). Then OpenAI did it with GPT-5 and Google did the same with Gemini Flash and now every new model version is at least twice as expensive than the one before that.


what is iddqd?


god mode code from Doom


Yeah I had thought this was what they were building when I first heard they had an email project. I guess not.


I feel like facebook is the worst culprit with this
