  1. Re:Well now on Google Glass: What's With All the Hate? · · Score: 1

    You're giving people too much credit around perceived privacy issues.

    I'd wager that most of the hate is because (1) you'll draw unwanted attention to yourself by wearing a silly-looking device on your face and (2) because you'll draw unwanted attention to yourself by TALKING TO YOUR GLASSES.

    Until this becomes the norm, and [celebrity of the moment] is wearing them, people won't want to put themselves out there in public like that.

  2. Wrapping Text on (Useful) Stupid Vim Tricks? · · Score: 1

    I've been using vim for years now, and I only discovered this one a couple of months ago.

    If you want to wrap text to a width of 80 characters, select it using visual mode and type: gq

    You can change the width to something other than 80 characters by doing a

    :set textwidth=<whatever>

    It's very useful for long comments, as it manages to keep the leading comment characters, at least when when I'm editing perl. It actually can do more than just simply wrapping text, see 'formatoptions'.

    Oh and split window editing is useful:

    :sp <file> - Open a file in a horizontally split window
    :vs <file> - Open a file in a vertically split window
    CTRL+ww - Switch between windows
    CTRL+qq - Close the current window
