I noticed that too. A truly clever hack. (I mean hack in a good way.)


You are right. I did not mean to suggest that electrical engineering is easy -- clearly, I know nothing about it -- but only that electrical engineering benefits from abstractions too.


Not using Maxwell's equations is surely not one of them :)


99% of the programmers I know are awesome; I was just wrote too aggressively to make a point. I'm sorry if I sounded arrogant -- that was not at all my intention.

I'm going to write up another version of this with a simpler message -- be grateful. I promise I'll chill out :)

Thanks for the comments!

Vim. It is challenging at first, but learning it will make you a better programmer.

Now that 7.3 comes standard on Lion, what are the advantages of using MacVim over the cli vim that is already installed?


Moreso just a personal preference. I migrated to Mac from a PC so I was so accustomed to gVim that MacVim was an easier transition for me.
