Something I did a little while ago was read through most of Busybox vi's source code, and work out my own simple documentation page with most of its options. It doesn't do visual mode but it does still work with registers etc.

CVT != Automatic transmission (which is generally hydraulic)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_transmission#Hydraul...


CVT is not the same as "automatic transmission", but it is a subtype of automatic transmission, i.e. CVT is a kind of automatic transmission, but there are also other kinds of automatic transmissions, which are more frequently used.

"Automatic transmission" just means that you do not change gears manually, which is also true for CVT.


Not sure why you are making this statement.

> "A continuously variable transmission (CVT) is an automatic transmission ..."

The ones at *.ec2.internal generally mean that the git config was never set up ans it defaults to $(id -un)@$(hostname)

Indeed. Extra observant people will notice that the "Ubuntu" username was used only twice though, compared to "root" that was used +3700 times. And observant people who've dealt with infrastructure before, might recognize that username as the default for interactive EC2 instances :)

The video on the dailymail article does add a little bit of context here:

She moved ahead about a metre while people were next to the car before stopping again and then getting removed from the car.


Was this reply meant for this story instead? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46637127

Claude Code couldn't write a commit description since it was broken at that point.


Here in Australia 'gas' as a fuel always means LPG (liquified petroleum gas = propane/butane). And it is getting rarer for cars.

Hence the expression "now you're cooking with gas"

That must confuse the hell out of the yanks


That doesn't appear for me. Win 11 Pro 25H2.


After you typed a Search term, there is no menu button at the right on the same vertical row as the 'All / Apps / Documents' bar?

You can also launch that Settings page by running in powershell:

  Start-Process "ms-settings:cortana-windowssearch"
Or just 'Settings' and in the left navigation 'Privacy & Security' -> 'Search'


It also orrelates with missing the first letter off search terms, such as when you start typing immediately after opening the start menu


I can only reproduce this by hovering the Windows icon with the mouse and having the finger on a character, in order to press it immediately after clicking. In that case most of the time the Start menu does not open at all, and sometimes it opens but does not have the letter.

When I use the Windows key to open the Start menu I cannot reproduce this, as eg. Win + E opens the Explorer instead of the Start menu.

It does not appear on my machine as if this could possibly happen when opening the Start menu during regular use. Can you reproduce this on your machine?


This rarely (but not never) happened on my gaming desktop when I had windows on that. On the other hand, on my surface go, if it only eats the first character, that’s a good showing, so it’s likely device performance specific


  > orrelates with missing the first letter off
Intended?

Still, that shows an issue of using fuzzy search for Bing but not programs. There should be a precedent on local items. A typo is far more likely than a web search, especially when the web search is resulting in the intended application.

Did no one think of that feedback loop? That if the web search is suggesting an installed app that that installed app should be prioritized?


How did you get a wrong Twitter link? And the updated note has two off-by-one errors.
