But in that case, the percentage of lesser adds would be highly unreliable.

What is the eligibility criteria anyways?

I have often wondered - why can't there be a subscription model where Google says: Pay us $5 a month and you will not be 'tracked'. If all I want is to not see ads, why will I not just use an ad blocker?

yeah same, came across it sometime earlier this year I think - quite useful.

Love the fact that it is written in Clojure

Similar to the quick text feature when not taking a phone call, this could come in handy - especially on phones.

But does that mean I'll have to re-enable Inbox to try it. Duh :(

Huge milestone! Congrats.

And in case you're wondering about the video, well, its this 50 year old documentary "The Home Of The Future: Year 1999 A.D.": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0RRxqg4G-G4

That's exactly what I thought when I read the title

At first I thought its just another vim emulation extensions/plugins that don't really work and are almost useless because you're so used to your customizations.

But then I noticed it mentioning that it can use my vimrc!

Wow! Now you have my attention!

Pretty awesome! My default browser is Chrome and I have Vimium installed - and its a really good to be able to press 'O' on a HN link and continue on Chrome with the same navigation (j, k, ..)

Based on the way I read HN, some customization that I would definitely want to do are:

1. Headline navigation (mapped to 'j') - move cursor to the next headline instead of the next line

2. <Enter> / O opens the link in browser instead of the HN thread

3. Opened links get blurred

4. Quick page reload mapping and Auto reload

But this is purely based on my style of reading HN.

Yep, exactly my thoughts. With Siri and Google voice, why do I need to buy another piece of hardware. Amazon could have integrated all of this in kindle or amazon phone if they really wanted to.

Why would the social networks ever do that for you? That's the data they crave for.
