Would love to see you add support for Logseq!
Re:A Definitive Guide to Enabling Italics in Vim and Tmux on Monday March 30, 2020 @06:52AM (#22726872)
There is a growing number of monospaced fonts that provide cursive italics for differentiation e.g., Operator Mono, Dank, Victor Mono.

Some people prefer it, some people hate it.

Re:SubEthaEdit 5 is now free and open source on Wednesday November 28, 2018 @09:32AM (#18551701)
Not the answer you're looking for, but have you tried Visual Studio Code with VS Live Share (https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=MS-vsliv...)? It works really well for pair/swarm programming.
Re:Show HN: Smallest Node.js Docker images on Wednesday November 14, 2018 @12:06PM (#18451430)
It's not (only) about the storage space; it's the upload too. That time investment will get paid back over multiple deployments.

That said, now I have "good" broadband, I pay a lot less attention to the image size.

I've turned them all off and nothing has broken so far, but then again I'm a pretty passive user of Facebook.

Anecdotal, but I've worn my LG Urbane every day since I got it last September. Very happy with it.

The article is on heroku.com, so of course it's going to encourage Heroku-centric solutions.
I've never bothered with virtualenvwrapper - I create virtualenvs alongside my projects, and call `$virtualenv/bin/python` or `$virtualenv/bin/pip` etc. directly. Sometimes I activate the virtualenv, sometimes I don't.

There's already many, many ways to do this and it works fine for me on (primarily) web development.

Don't dream it - be it.

You could try using SSH + keys. I only ever use my password for the site itself.
