I'm also a vimwiki fan. Used to use emacs just for org mode but didn't find the extra effort worthwhile for the returns. I haven't used calendar.vim ... I will tomorrow, thanks!

I have a MBP Mid 2014; it has always had a freeze problem. During 2016 probably twice a week. Drove me nuts. I forget the 2015 rate. The second half of this year, approx, has been really good to the point that I'd forgotten about freezes until a recent "your computer restarted 'cos it had a problem".

Well, I'm honoured to be in the presence of "a true, educated critic". Late twenties, so I can see how you consider yourself to be an expert on wisdom too. Alas, being considerably older I only see old hat (as suggested in the comment, but you didn't seem to manage to pick up on, despite your quintessential hallmarks). Damned eyes. I see that "K.Dot" is not much older than you (I assume "K.Dot" is the intellectual's name for Kendrick Lamar). Anyway, I'll let you get back to your yourself.

I don't know; I'm afraid it bored me and I didn't finish. I did read the lyrics of a few of the tracks recommended in other comments, but didn't see anything special. Maybe because I grew up in South Africa, the theme of "How much does a dollar cost" (but remove the grammar), although you might then suggest I might then be able to relate - that doesn't make it special. Maybe because rap does nothing for me. I usually can't stand it. The vocabulary alone is dire - "fuck, shit, nigga" all over the place. Each to their own I guess.

Conservator.

Well... if you read up to that point you would also have read "is the key to the future for both children and adults alike" - and you've only addressed the kids bit. I think the silly craze has died down a bit in the UK, but a few years ago we were subjected to such excitement as the news highlighting activities like c level execs doing coding classes in their lunchbreaks - 10 o'clock news?! This may have been about the same time as the BBC microbit was produced - I've heard nothing of that recently either. Easiest way to confirm it was a silly craze is to watch peak daft hysteria disappear into the distance.

Italy is also pushing forward with a 6% revenue tax on Amazon and similar.

On the contrary, the opportunity to access the UK market has much enthusiasm.

It was the lack of basic keybindings that resulted in me never getting going with it. Everytime I wanted to do "trivial thing" I was expected to write a script. Too much yak shaving.

Meteorites.

There are 20k different sorts of genitals. More seriously, it would be chromosomal differences I guess.

"Should we condemn them" - manipulatively dramatic language imho. Sometimes we have to step up and take on a burden we might prefer not to - it's done to improve a situation. You want the country's strong to abandon the country and its weak? Or do you want the whole population of every poor country to migrate, should they want?

Western countries talking about the benefits of immigration and multiculturalism - but when those immigrants are educated or skilled the west is robbing the poor countries of their only hope. This is why visas are better than residency/citizenship - the poor country person spends a few years in the advanced country then returns to the poor country with improved skills and knowledge.

My company isn't contemplating it in the slightest.

While that's very kind of you, I don't know how you've come to think that life is devoid of the unfortunate - some people are simply stupid.
