I truly regret to inform you that around these heah parts the street dogs (maa soi) are the most pathetic collection of walking-hobbling-limping wounded canines one would hope never to see. An outcome of the world's most dangerous traffic.
Many are abandoned, some dumped at the local Wat (Buddhist temple).
«... thank the gods that they have made you superior to those events which they have not placed within your own control, rendered you accountable for that only which is within you own control For what, then, have they made you responsible? For that which is alone in your own power—a right use of things as they appear.» Discourses of Epictetus Book I:12

VIM Clutch by Aleksandr Levchu[^]
People actually use Insert mode??? Or am I missing something? (Yes, ok, haha - apart from that.)
[edit] - ok, maybe what I'm missing (this Monday morning) is a sense of humour... I hope! Is the whole thing just a joke?!

People pay $20+ to use VIM?

I enjoyed it when developing algorithms because it has nothing on screen, it helps my concentration. There's only me and the algorithm and there can only be one survivor, no witnesses.
For anything more complex than a medium sized C or assembler file it becomes less comfortable, and it has nothing that Notepad++ doesn't have on Windows.

For some reason, this clue brings me great joy. I would almost be ecstatic with this clue.

Why would he take off an 'E' in order to add it right back on again?

I suspect that he was just feeling capricious.

I am genuinely saddened at the passing of Sir Ken Dodd, a legend of the British comedy circuit. I saw his show many times and, it's no exaggeration, they really did run to 5 hours. That a man in his 80s and 90s could run that length of material with no signs of fatigue was a testament to how talented he really was.

Just bought a bluetooth keyboard for my Fire TV Stick, because it`s a pain searching with the standard remote (and it has no voice, thankfully)
And it works on the WookieTab as well, which means I don`t have to use the current stupid version of the onscreen KB! Yay!
It`s pretty small, and doesn`t have a single quote, oddly but ... SHIFT STAYS DOWN WHILE I HOLD IT! 
And if you can thumb type texts, it's fine.

I've had a couple of BT keyboards. The first one was the same size as my 8" tablet (which is 1 mm wider than an iPad mini, so none of the aftermarket cases quite fit, but that's another story.  ) It had an odd selection of keys. No arrows for a start, which was quite a PITA. It didn't survive a visit from the granddaughters a couple of years ago.
The one I have now is somewhat bigger (285 x 122 mm) but it's full size (19mm key spacing) and has a Windows layout. Not too different from many laptop keyboards, except it's missing Ins/Home/End/PgUp/PgDn. (I suspect there may be Fn- equivalents, but I haven't found them.) They were also available with Apple and Android layouts. I forget the details, but at least one of those was missing Esc, and there was some messup with Del/Backspace.
Cheers,
Peter

This one is really tiny - 16cm x 4.5cm and has ESC and arrows, but no TAB.

not even one quote? How about daily thoughts?

I just use the app on my phone for that. My wife would smack me for adding yet another TV-operating remote to the collection.
If you think 'goto' is evil, try writing an Assembly program without JMP.
