Users? What other users?

If you are writing software that solves a problem for you, something that you will find valuable, then you are probably fixing a problem for someone else too.

Bundle that ToolForThoughts

2022-12-27T13:51:29-XXXX Tue HackerNewsComments  Great article and highlights the cyclical hype of PKMS. I use FountainPens and Paper. RandyPausch was/is a TimeManagement guru and inspires. https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~pausch/ KeepItSimple.  PaidFor SubscribedTo literally every MajorPkms DigitalGarden Wiki MindMap GewGaw aka ToolsForThought out there. But thoughts are cheap along with storage (SdCard) and backup (RsyncBackupScript) There is simply no reason not to enjoy ExternalizeThinking with DigitalTools (and have it centralized) Now for the last 9 years feel like I am making my own language and talking to itself.

Most forgettable vim lesson of 2022

Most forgettable vim lesson of 2022

running aliases are efficient as in 

alias zk='cd ~/zk&&vim -S zk.vim'

BUT

when calling local .exrc as in set exrc in .vimrc

RECREATE the session with 

:mks! zk.vim

EVERY time .exrc is edited else

no new mapping or config works (in the running old session)!!!

Memory aid: programs installed with sudo apt-get and persistent history with logs

What did I install again? 

$ cat /var/log/apt/history.log |grep '^Commandline' | sort -u

Persistent History with Logs 

# running bash history https://spin.atomicobject.com/2016/05/28/log-bash-history/

export PROMPT_COMMAND='if [ "$(id -u)" -ne 0 ]; then echo "$(date "+%Y-%m-%d.%H:%M:%S") $(pwd) $(history 1)" >> ~/.logs/bash-history-$(date "+%Y-%m-%d").log; fi'

# must check ~/.logs for full history of all commands since enabling
