Not judging if this is a good or bad thing but in general it's annoying to be dependent on a single company. While git is decentralized, github's social platform features are centralized and lock users to github. I would love to see more solutions that allows users to migrate freely between platforms without losing their social contacts. See https://fejoa.org for more information.

Another problem is that you should not use an authentication password to protect your wallet. See https://fejoa.org/fejoapage/2018/05/17/DeveloperRelease.html for more info.

Once you mastered the Kinesis Advantage you don't want to go back. Your hands move way less on the Kinesis than on a normal keyboard. Maybe this is also the reason why I always found the use of ESC in vim an odd choice, i.e. you have to move your hand to reach the ESC key. Moreover, the Kinesis has the arrow keys below the "c" "v" "m" "," keys so you can navigate without moving your hands, this is similar to vim but without the annoying mode switches.

Would it be possible to slow down segfault notifications to mitigate the attack? For example, if the segfault was not on kernel space, halt the application for the time offset of a kernel read. In this way all segfaults would be reported at more or less the same time and the attack could be avoided.

Are there any sane apps that depends on timely segfault handling and thus might be affected by such a workaround?

Nope, you have no clue :) thats what a trackpad is good for. The trackpad is easily reachable with your thumb without leaving your fingers too much from the keyboard (most linux distros have the right of the trackpad configured as scroll area). So no annoying multi finger scrolling needed.

Furthermore, middle mouse button + trackpoint scrolls as well, so scrolling really isn't an issue.

You have to learn to use it as you had to learn to use an ordinary mouse or trackpad. Once you are comfortable with it a trackpoint is 10 times better than using a trackpad (probably even more ;) ). For example, you don't have to leave your hand(s) from the keyboard or awkwardly balancing the labtop on your knees when moving the cursor.

Looks awesome, is there any first person 3D point and click adventure? I only know the very old Normality but otherwise I'm not aware of any game that follows the "classic" adventure approach... Firewatch is cool but there are not many real puzzles.

Also see Kotlin's concurrency

Sound like Genode: http://genode.org/documentation/general-overview/index

Its more flexible and customizable, e.g. works with RxJava, CompletableFuture, JavaFX, Android... Moreover, you have more control where a coroutine is executed. https://kotlinlang.org/docs/reference/coroutines.html

Kotlin 1.1 supports coroutines what IHMO makes concurrency in a GUI much nicer. For example, it has C# like async/await methods; but more flexible...

Have a look at http://genode.org/

The Fejoa project (https://fejoa.org) actually targets this problem. It aims to make it possible for users to change their hosting server without losing their contacts.
