I'm not sure how to respond to that comment, which I find profoundly shocking and depressing. I've read some HN comments before which for some reason suggest a large-scale nuclear "war" wouldn't be so bad, but..this one seems even much worse, for some reason. I don't get it. I don't get how anyone could believe or write that.

Anything I could write seems so obvious. I can't think. I think I need a break from HN for a while. You don't seem to have been downvoted in 5 hours.

Why "still"? hehe I only started fairly recently. Typing * in the Firefox search bar searches bookmarks—what's not to like.

URLs I use frequently I add to my start page.

On mac 12.5 + bash + macports, having trouble getting anything to work, like Ctrl-R, Esc-C etc, **TAB complete, even after trying to follow the suggestions linked here.

The basic problem, however, is that whatever I type into the fuzzy search, it finds many thousands of hits. It seems it's picking up a lot of aliased Downloads folders in ~/Library/Containers. Anyone else have that problem? Not sure how to turn that off.

I just typed "abcdefghijklmno" trying to narrow it down, and still had 10 hits. Typing a further "p" reduced that to 2, but I could see most of those eliminated 8 had a "p" in the filename. Confusing!

edit: I got Ctrl-R, Esc-C and **TAB complete working by adding this to .bash_profile, not .bashrc as it said to when installing:

  source /opt/local/share/fzf/shell/key-bindings.bash
  source /opt/local/share/fzf/shell/completion.bash

But I still have many thousands of options for Esc-C cding, for example, whatever I type—mostly from ~/Library/Containers. I don't remember having that problem when I tried fzf a few years ago, on macos 10.13 I think.

Thank you!! Why on earth isn't that the default. It always seemed weird that with multiple bash windows open, the commands from most of them weren't added to the history.

> You have way too much time on your hands and seem determined to argue nonconstructively. Have a good one.

Please refresh on the HN comment guidelines. And reconsider who has been "constructive" vs "nonconstructive" in this thread.

I thought it was "professional", helpful, and a great comment. I didn't think yours was constructive, just unhelpfully treating a different formatting style as objectively worse, in an unfriendly way. "Be kind"! It was also hard to parse, as the GP pointed out.

edit: You changed your comment after I wrote this. Now it mentions that you flagged the GP. That's ridiculous.

Please refresh on the HN comment guidelines.

Geez, that is just chilling, horrifying.

> How Mr. Assange has become the poster boy of "leakers against the government" with his outrageous egotistical and dickish behavior is beyond me

So, who do you think it should be instead? (genuine question)

> Stupid comment.

Please don't talk anything like this in future on HN, thanks, regardless of what the other person says. You wrote similar things several other times on this page.
