The main reason is that Vim is better, right?

This is so cool. Seeing the word splitbrain definitely gave me a moment of dreaded recollection though, not gonna lie. Not a fun place to be when you're dealing with databases and clusters.

Perhaps this says more about you than the author. At the very least not imaginative enough to picture someone being genuine. Or perhaps this just isn’t the right sort of thing to discuss on hn?

I’ve seen this happen when the people move in and aren’t technically in the city they thought they were. They were right on the border IIRC. Ride-share apps and Google had no clue until I entered the city adjacent to the one they thought they lived in. They somehow still got packages. I guess the zip, street and number combo were enough.

That or right click.

I mean you don't need to use the convenience aliases, or use even use it exactly that way. Here's it without any aliases:

Get-ChildItem -Recurse | ForEach-Object { $PSItem.Name.ToLower() }

This might be a better mix of both worlds:

gci -r | foreach { $PSItem.Name.ToLower() }

PowerShell seems to work fine calling a nix executable, unless I'm missing something:

> ls -t *.js | head -n 10 | foreach { echo $_ ; Get-ChildItem $_ | fl Name, Length } product_original.js

Name : product_original.js Length : 3353

gulpfile.js

Name : gulpfile.js Length : 382

Would you be able to provide an example? I'm not doubting your experience, just incredibly curious since I had the opposite experience.

I had a coworker insist on using ddg for privacy reasons and he was a bit smug about it even though meetings where he was presenting while searching the web always started with a ddg search and ended with him sighing and giving up by using !g to switch to google. I think, even in it's less than ideal state, people still underestimate how much time google's tailored search can save you when you train it to figure out you want to see development/technical documentation.

I may be recalling incorrectly but I seem to remember it having some storage deduplication benefits on the backend.

OIDC is way easier in my experience.

Seems like Figma and Miro are converging a bit but from different directions

I don't know anything about your experiences so don't take this as an attempt to defend them but I've been told that the mental health field has a substantial amount of people who suffered or suffer from mental health issues and to some degree their pursuit of the career is an attempt to understand themselves better.
