Depends one the cost and environmental impact. I don't know anything about the compounds they used and anyway they're still experimental and could be replaced by others. But in stationary settings where size isn't an issue they can lose substantial capacity upfront and still be viable if they can be cheaply produced and don't involve complicated steps like in lithium mining for example.
My feeling is that neovim per se, as a piece of software, is fine, but that it belongs to one of those developer communities that prizes freedom and infinite configurability over the day-to-day practicality of getting things done. So something like LSP integration has too many ways to do it across too many plugins.

If you are deeply involved in the community and are willing to put in the time, sure, you could probably build something superior to vscode. But the time invested to get there might not be worth the marginal productivity gains.
This is why I switched to Helix. The configuration is practically non-existent, and it has default configs for all the language servers I could ever want to interact with. I just put the language server binary in my path and I'm ready to go with autocomplete and all the other features.

Och c'mon. Agriculture even from 200 years ago can feed much more than 2/3x people than directly working with it. There always will be place for people tinkering and trying new things and or trying to bring old things to life. Computers do have legit use cases like communication, access to knowledge etc... There will be place for comp geeks in post apo world, but certainly not for many. They will have to prove themselves useful though.
If you want IDE like features, then of course an IDE is a better choice. I've never understood why people and to extend vim to try to make it half of an IDE.
JetBrains have excellent offerings for both JavaScript and Python, in my opinion. I happen to like Neovim and I don't use the languages you have issues with the Neovim side of, but if I were to use an alternative it would definitely be JetBrains IDEs.
As the Levine article explained, and as has been reiterated several times in this comment thread:

J&J is not "freed from the shackles of any liability", because it is still liable to its own subsidiary for the talc lawsuit claims, up to the full value of J&J itself (the parent company).
In your heart of hearts, do you really believe that J&J wants to make things right and pay these claimants what they’re owed, or do you think J&J is trying to minimize what they pay out by any means necessary? Note that J&J shareholders likely interpret the latter as their fiduciary duty.
Emacs more likely since the bug is 23 yrs old and the gatekeeping

But yeah I agree with the sentiment of parent OP
>I'm not convinced you read the doc you cited.

I guess I should point out these kind of insults are against the site guidelines.

>In it, it clearly states that the levelized cost of energy for solar PV rooftop residential ranges from $115/MWH while gas peaking is $114/MWH and nuclear is $141.

You are quoting the lowest value in each range, you need to consider the entire range:

$117 to $282 Rooftop residential
$115 to $221 Gas Peaking
$141 to $221 Nuclear

If you take the average from the range, the most expensive is rooftop solar. As the Statista web site states:

>Rooftop solar photovoltaic installations on residential buildings have the highest unsubsidized levelized costs of energy generation in the United States.

The LCOE of course also undercounts some of the costs associated with consumer rooftop solar. There is real value in having an energy source that isn’t so intermittent. With a low capacity factor, you need to spend money to deal with that. This might be through adding new power lines to bring in power from somewhere else, over building, adding gas peakers, adding energy storage etc. Obviously none of this is free and none of these extra costs are included as part of the LCOE of solar. You can see some estimates of this on page 11 of the report.

>Your source also states quite clearly that these costs depend on the circumstances (i.e., each case is a case)

Yes that is why there is a range. But if your point is that sometimes rooftop solar won’t be the most expensive form of power, that seems like moving the goal posts from your original response:

>>Care to show the basis of your personal assertion? It's an extraordinary and unbelievable claim.

>...and it points to unsubsidized costs.

Yes, that was actually my point. The real question is why is consumer rooftop solar so heavily subsidized? It really is sort of a reverse Robinhood scenario where less well off consumers subsidize their wealthier neighbors. The money available for energy subsidies is not unlimited and this money is fungible. A dollar going to subsidize an extremely expensive rooftop solar installation could have gone much, much farther if it had gone to support a utility grade solar installation.

>If I get a quote from a rooftop vendor that sells gold plated PV panels to install in a cave, that does not mean that residential PV panels have an expensive energy cost.

That isn’t the right way to look at LCOE. Here is some background info:

I'm not so sure about something unusual becoming an empty fad. Medieval fairs are enclaves of the different, and yet you don't see every event turning into a medieval fair to dilute the idea.

A designated place matters for the experience: you can expect that the door frames and ceilings will be adjusted to accommodate your hats (i.e. no one will require a phone from you to do basic things).

You may also expect other people to already be in the same mental space as you, or learning to see the world from a new perspective at the same time as you are.
If I understand your statement correctly, the idea posited is that a company which has had a large ruling against it should be able to avoid paying out the total amount assessed against it because someone might also have been harmed that could theoretically bring suit?

I don’t really think that some hypothetical future lawsuit is a valid basis to avoid the consequences arrived at for the current one. If one can simply make a virtual entity that holds all of your liabilities and then set it on fire to avoid paying them, isn’t that just a modern play on the ancient tradition of the scapegoat?

Putting all your sins on someone or something else didn’t absolve you then and it should not be a legal way to get out of paying for your mistakes now.

Am I the only one using vanilla vim with a minimal configuration file (<50 lines)? I set tabs to 4 spaces, put syntax highlighting on, set background to dark, add fuzzy finding, and configure netrw (default file browsing).

Very easy to setup. Moreover, when I'm on a different computer and open (vanilla) vim without any configurations. I know that everything is more or less the same as my default vim environment. I think it's not that hard to learn developing in the default vim environment, with some minor tweaks.

Thank you for bringing up LMQL. We have active branches with regex, parsers and types (structured and other types) which will also soon be upstreamed, improving typed LLM use beyond the current template-based approach we support.
Please read the Matt Levine article that was linked a couple of comments upthread.

You (and many other commenters) seem to be under the impression that the bankruptcy procedure was done for the purpose of "avoiding paying out the total amount assessed against it", when that was not at all the case.
My attention span for text editor configuration decreased drastically after I finished school. For better or worse, being a professional means making the correct trade off when time, money, and productivity are at stake.

In the modern era, there are sufficiently many practical editors and IDE's with major economic investment behind making them highly functional out of the box. I simply cannot justify spending copious amounts of time configuring a text editor when there's sufficiently good and productive options out there.

Looks like the last edit I published to my Vim config was 5 years ago https://github.com/fvgs/.vim

But hey, maybe I'll find some "lazy" time to give LazyVim a go and give VSCode a break.
Really? Didn't you recognize the word "Asia"? Didn't you recognize the Malaysian peninsulae, almost the only recognizable part of the "Asia" map? And just to its east, exactly like the sea in question, the dashed line. It's clear in the screenshot, and the frame shows that the part they want you to see isn't America, Europe or Africa: it's "World Map", "Asia" and dashed line.

Even if you hosnestly didn't recognize it, this isn't here for you. This is here for the people who knows. I recall menctioning "1488" in a conversation, and there were more people that didn't have a clue than they do. But if you include a VW Beetle in a movie, with the plates "1488-HH"... that's no mistake, even if only 10% of the viewers get it. That will end with someone fired, and nobody could claim they did it unknowingly. Maybe they though it was a clever joke or an easter egg, but it's not possible by chance.
I agree but if you want to see even higher doses of racism just change India with China and there will be a lot more here. unfortunately the media created extremely hostile environment toward non white countries that are slowly catching up and surpassing western technology

You can still type check those, and have a fast compiler, and not rely on a restricted set of hardcoded non-extendable types.
Sometimes it is too many choices. Each of them have its own glitch and dependency. Finding out which one I like most is time consuming.
By now we've been doing

for (int i=0; i<13; i++) {
whatever(array[i]);
}

and

def printHello():
print("hello world"[0:5])

for decades. No point vastly messing up consistency for minimal gain. BTW notice how in both cases we count to n elements despite using 0..n-1 indexing. You don't, in fact - need to put 12 anywhere if you mean 13 elements.

> Because I assure you, without cats, or something to replace them that does what cats do, you and I will starve to death.

You could have made the same argument about DDT. You have to acknowledge the problem before you can find a different solution.

With enough determination it’s quite feasible. You know as a Canadian that Alberta is the only place in the Americas without rats. They have a very successful management program. [1]

Cats are an invasive species, so are rats. Alternatives exist, please stop being so defensive. Given this topical counterexample it hardly seems like a case of “cats vs food and hentavirus” since Alberta has no rats, plenty of food and no hentavirus without relying on cats.

> There's no way they're the problem, as a result of this, when we're talking about 1/3 of the birds.

… they kill 10% of birds per year. Times 3 years is just about 1/3. Given it occurred over 50 years I’d say we’ve got us a good candidate. Especially since there is documented evidence of them leading to the extinction of entire species. You can see how the math here is within the ballpark yeah?

GLSDBs are nice but cost ~$50k a pop.

Turns out a plastic airframe with a chainsaw motor, RPG warhead and some mostly COTS electronics can inflict similar damage for a small fraction of that.

These are more directly comparable to Israel's Harpy/Harop, still costing fortunes are they com from the 80s and carry all of proper military development the red tape.

Helix is cool, but it doesn't have Vim keybinds, which is unfortunate. I find its own system to be a little worse than Vim's (see my other comment about it in this thread).
Completely agree

(As much as I'm team *Vim) Vimscript is a mess. Oh, so you mean 'noremap' means remap this? No way! /s

The story about plugins is so true, regardless of the above. People will want you to install a plugin with 5 stars that will not play nice with anything else to do something basic like pre-save processing. Or one of the 'everything but the kitchen sink' plugins that has an end goal of giving you a Borgified Vim

And in the end I sincerely don't care, I could use the time I'm playing with this to install VSCode, or something else and have something more complete OotB

Sure, it's one hour if you did that already 20 times and you know the ecosystem.

An hour is barely enough to go through the vimtutor which itself is pretty basic (aka you won't get far with it, so you need to keep learning and practicing).

If you are a vim newbie, it takes a lot of time to figure out you need plugins, then figure out how to install plugins, then what's the difference between plugin installers, finding the needed plugins for your languages, getting familiar with each plugins commands, resolve any conflicts between them, then you need file pickers, debuggers, task launchers, snippets, split screens, multi tabs, etc... Even then, you only made things work once... Good luck figuring that out in one hour...

Then you'll need to keep the config working, practice and memorize the commands, movements, and maybe customize your workflow.

Configuring vim to replace your IDE may be worth it, but "set it up in one hour" is, in my experience, extremely unrealistic.
I'd recommend trying a neovim distro like lunarvim out. It has black and all other typical ide features configured out of the box and doesn't mess with your normal neovim config.
> A bit off-topic, but I wonder how much Copilot/GPT cuts into the market share of editors like vim and emacs.

So you think that the two editors that have been around for nearly 100 years combined and are extremely customizable and have survived every coding fad, language and technology trend, is in danger from AI features?

Short answer: no.

Both Emacs and Neovim has first class support/implementations of Co-Pilot and GPT plugins.

For example ChatGPT.nvim [1].

How would you know who is qualified for what?
They're getting downvoted for lots of good reasons and linking to the production of a relatively unsophisticated and disposable loitering munition and then talking about air-warfare does not help.

To name a few:

1) Drones do not have the superhuman capabilities that people who know nothing about aircraft design seem to think they have. Removing the pilot does not let you pull more Gs because almost all aircraft are structurally limited. If you try to pull 30Gs in a fighter sized aircraft the wings will fall off. If you make a limited AI which can do specific tasks better than a human then you just stick it in a fighter which ALSO has a human in it to cover the other parts which the AI sucks at.

2) Drones with the same capabilities as manned aircraft are not actually cheaper than manned aircraft. They have all the same expensive parts and they're the same size.

3) Until human-level AI becomes available drones are strongly limited by communications meaning that a drone fighter is about the same cost, but less capable.

4) You cannot just replace expensive systems with swarms of cheap systems. Smaller aircraft with fewer of the expensive systems are fundamentally lacking capabilities meaning that for many tasks they cannot do the job, full stop. A lancet is not 1/10000 as good as a B-2 at attacking a target 2000 miles away because it does not have the range to get there. If you put a cheap numerous system up against an expensive system which the cheap system has literally zero capacity to engage, it doesn't matter how many of the cheap system you throw at the fight, they won't win. This is why expensive systems which can operate with complete superiority tend to end up being more economical overall in warfare. As the saying goes, there's nothing more expensive than having the world's second best air-force. Not having your aircraft blown up is typically preferable, even if they were cheap.

Cheap drones have their place but they do not replace existing high-end systems.

> The amount of work needed to get a basic IDE up and running for your languages of choice,

I don't think vim is meant to be an IDE. If you want an IDE, go get an IDE. If you want a text editor, vim works well. But vscode is unwieldy as a text editor, and vim is painful to contort into an IDE.
I would like to learn about the background of the project developers. Not their names and where they are from, but how they got the knowledge to realize projects like this. Are they hobbyists who work in unrelated fields and just learned this from books and videos? Do they have degrees in electronics and do work like this in their jobs?

Stuff like this looks almost superhuman to me and I would like to know how one can get the abilities to pull this off.
I can see both points of view.

I’ve definitely been down the Vim config rabbit hole and struggled to find the right balance between “cool” (actively developed with newer features) vs. “best practice” (more mature and stable). My current approach is to search Hacker News comments for “vim plugin-feature-I-want” and the most popular comments usually point me in the right direction.

For what it’s worth, I use Neovim with ALE at the moment and it works just fine.

Professor Schumacher theorized that humans are evolved to enter such a trance state in order to regularly suppress their fear of death..

But they very rarely ban a channel from posting.
