I really like the idea, but the data quality for my city (Trondheim, Norway) was unfortunately too off for me to use.

The national forecast service (yr.no) is saying it will be sunny and very hot all through the weekend, while wttr reports it will be 16-19 degrees Celcius and rain on saturday.

The iOS standard keyboard does not support swiping if your language is Norwegian.

SCons is a build system for C and C++ (and some other languages) that is configured in Python. I haven't tried it much though.
Note that they only compared their solution with Eigen’s tensor transposition functionality. HPTT is not a drop-in replacement.
Faster tensor transposition, which can speed up applications that do manipulation and calculation with tensors. Tensors are typically seen in physics.

Another nice tool is likwid. It lets you select a performance counter group (e.g. L3 CACHE) to monitor while running a program. It also provides derived metrics.

I am also a vim user, but agree that in some cases it can be faster to select text with the cursor. However, you lose some time moving your hand between the keyboard and mouse, so I usually don't do it.

However, you can have both. Neovim is a drop-in replacement for vim that lets you use the mouse to select text, scroll, change windows or panes, resize splits and so on. Resizing splits is one of those things that I prefer to do with a cursor.

I think vim can do some of the same things (all?), but it requires some configuration.

It looks OK, but it is easy to see that it is not native: http://i1-win.softpedia-static.com/screenshots/Deluge_1.png
