Needed to remove and re-install my mambaforge distribution, which I think is the cause of several million files being in my trash. (We passed 2,500,000 over the course of writing these two sentences.)

Two of my peers/mentors in grad school (hey Christoph, hey Tim) sat me down within my first week in the lab and said "learn this," something I am forever grateful for
In memory of Bram Moolenaar: how did you get into Vim? For me it started gradually via gvim. I used it casually until I copied the .vimrc from @amix3k. That “madman” remapped the arrow keys which for the first time made me realize people actually use ghjk. I became a convert.

I aim to keep this tag regularly updated, highlighting some of the things I'm a little confused on but I'm sure somebody out there is familiar with, but also relatively low in number in order to be more accessible.

"high-energy breakfast concoction" is a great rebrand of the monstrous peanut butter nutella waffles I had in college
Since it's Oppenheimer's birthday, let's celebrate it by eating "black and tan", a high-energy breakfast concoction whipped up by him when he was a student at Harvard that would keep him going all day long. Toast thick layer of peanut butter thick layer chocolate sauce.

someone defended firing 88% of the staff in a message that said "it's just DevOps." Oh, you sweet summer child.
