I almost complained about having non-monospaced fonts as a default on the linked page for 'coding', until I started reading this page where they explain the reasons. Still, mono-spaced is much easier for an IDE to interpret and my brain thinks me like it more.


This looks like it's a plugin to macvim; or at least a fork of it.


John McAfee is crazy and any listening to his rants is a waste of time. I unfortunately read this one thinking it was actually a parody, but since there was no punchline, I realize now I've been suckered into another pointless article. I'm still in disbelief that bragging about a gun is actually coming from a 68 year old man(boy?).

Yeah Me too, guess we were the punchline.


Read between the lines - it's not bragging, it's a pointed threat.


It's trying to be a "pointed threat," but it's really pompous, swaggering machismo, which we might as well call "bragging."

(Assuming it's real, of course. Poe's Law is in effect.)


I can beat it. Give me about 5 minutes and git filter my commits. Not to take away from the "accomplishment" ( achievement? ) of work, but its easy to create and post date commits to beat this "record".


That's not beating him, that's cheating. You can make it look like you have lots of commits but you won't actually be person with the longest streak.


The man has an opinion; but I used to / still eat this stuff up.


I don't usually a comment about the things I know little; however this seems harmless enough.

It's apparent to me there is a back story here and the guided reasons were not to demean women, but that's certainly how I feel after rereading the comment in this commit.

It would be wise to not treat things like this lightly in public forums, no matter what the back story is.


+1 for being a quality software solution.


I actually work on this site; and I use it for all of my stuff. It's daily getting better and we are constantly coming out with new features. I would highly advocate people to at least try it out, and suggest features and issues.
