nothing new here.

the OP doesn't even mention anything about taxes, which shifts things even more in favor of index investing.

or just use bookmarks and enjoy the exact same workflow as git.

neocomplete is also my preferred autocomplete plugin. it integrates very well with all of shougo's other plugins, and it works on windows. YCM officially does not support windows and it's not uncommon for it to be broken for a week or two.

hi. is this the same problem that `set ttimeoutlen=10` addresses or something else?

here's a blog post i found that does what you need (http://got-ravings.blogspot.com/2008/10/vim-pr0n-statusline-...)

and then you can replace one of the airline sections with it.

Re:Vim as a Python IDE, or Python IDE as Vim on Saturday June 15, 2013 @08:50AM (#5884890)
i'm a big fan of jetbrains, but this is a poorly written article.

> Here is a poignant example of Vim being overloaded.

i don't see how this is any different from opening every toolbar window in PyCharm and cluttering the interface.

> Nothing can replace Vim, but IdeaVim feels closer than any other editor’s attempts

emacs evil does the best emulation. IdeaVim fails at two of the most important emulation tasks: escape and undo.

i used webstorm for a while to do javascript/html, but once i got proficient with vim it wasn't even close. just like how people are going crazy with livereload and how it makes development awesome, that's how i feel with using vim. it does what i tell it to do NOW, not 3 seconds from now.

in my experience using emacs reaching for the meta key is worse than reaching for the arrow keys. at least with arrow keys you don't need to morph your hand into pretzel.
Re:C++ compiler accepts explicit constructor call on Tuesday April 30, 2013 @08:23AM (#5631687)
seems standard. visual studio releases are years behind each other so they're not going to fix anything that's not critical.
