I'm a Linux guy who doesn't really like Macs but has intermittently been required to use them. On the whole I have a grudging respect for Apple (their hardware is peerless), but seeing one screen turn to "brushed steel" when the app on the other was put into full screen mode kind of blew my mind because "UI is worse than Windows" was not, at the time, a failure mode I believed the company was capable of.

I like opera and classical music generally. Musicals too, although only ones written up to about 1950. I was unreasonably embarrassed about this as a kid because it wasn't "cool".

The author says:

> I’d recommend you go to the show if you haven’t already, but that’s not really the point of this post.

So while I agree that it is good to contemplate why you like things, that wasn't the topic of the post at all.

The author quite explicitly say so.

Yes. You should try liking things too instead of being dismissive of those who do. Kind of the author's point.

Obviously I’m saying that the article’s content is trivial considering the word count. You know this.

But by criticizing the article I have proved it correct. Which tells us a lot about society.

My terminal (terminator) does (2) and the "easy" scrollback on tmux messes up the ability to scroll with the mouse, at least with default settings. I just tried it in zellij and that doesn't. Since I'm only using a multiplexor for (3) and zellij does that too, I'm already inclined to switch.

I know I'd get used to them, but the key combos used by tmux seem very odd choices, even to someone who used to code on a real glass tty!

Maybe? This seems to be more aimed at procrastination. Making map or a tool is still doing a thing, just not the thing.

I think you're not appreciating how big space is. They're not going to be near any star for thousands of years - and near here is still very distant. If we're still around then, we'll probably be able to look after ourselves.

My wife, being a genius, has a decoy keyboard. Pretty effective, it usually has a cat sitting on it.

I tried this for my toddler but unfortunately it fooled me more often than it fooled him.

Even if promotional (which I doubt even if other posts are), this ticks the 'is interesting and not shallow' box for me.
