There is also HedgeDoc (https://hedgedoc.org/). I found it useful for (1) collaboration, and (2) being able to write in the Markdown syntax w/ side-by-side rendering. (Discussed here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31645045)

I'd like to have a close look at CloudLinux OS: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36493691

What's the difference between this and AlmaLinux? I was under the impression that CloudLinux had renamed to AlmaLinux and transferred ownership to the nonprofit, but apparently they are separate?

Edit: Reading into it, it seems that CloudLinux is similar to AlmaLinux, but has extra patches targeted towards shared hosting providers to support hosting management panel software. They will soon be releasing a free version that just has basic patching to make sure panel software works, but without the more elaborate proprietary offerings that commercial CloudLinux has.

What if Redhat doesn't commit patches to Centos steam on time, but backports their internal RHEL branches? What if Oracle doesn't backport on time? In that case, Almalinux has to fix their own branch with their patches, thereby diverging from 1 to 1 RHEL. This diverged AlmaLinux is CloudLinux. No more 1:1 binary compatibility with RHEL. So, Cloudlinux leads its own life, with its own patches for any CVEs, etc.

AlmaLinux has not diverged.

It's a new book I'm trying to read for the next week. One sentence from the introduction: "Existing accounts empahsize the role of activists and the process of moral growth so much that the contributions of Corporate America, normalization's most powerful ally, are invisible."

>My default editor is vim and don't have issues with escape

if you are using vim, it is more efficient to use ctrl+[ instead of the escape key. This way your hands are staying where they mostly are.

Or map Esc to `jk`. Gold.

never thought about it! Thanks!

Just don't forget about it if you're writing something about Dijkstra in vim.

Or just map caps lock to escape. Then you replace an almost useless home row key with an extremely useful one.

I'm always amazed by how, after using vi(m) for so many years one can always learn something new. I opened a session and tried it out and then found my hand moving to the escape key automatically...

Ctrl-c does the same and it is easier to press.

it's not 100% equivalent, for example C-v (select visual block), I, ..., C-c will cancel the block prepend action, whereas esc or C-[ will execute it.

Took me a while to realise that when messing around with visual/block.

I still mostly use C-c from muscle memory though, but do occasionally swear at it.

I see this caveat all the time, why don't people just rebind C-c to Esc and be done with it
