enabling vim keybindings in sublime text 2
  • Preferences -> Settings - User (Cmd-, in osx)
  • add "ignored_packages": [] (don't forget the commas at the end of lines)
  • save
  • now you see INSERT MODE in the lower left corner
  • hit ESC to get to COMMAND MODE. You can use vim commands like :w for save, and navigation keys like j,k,h,l
  • now hit i to get back to INSERT MODE, and use your favorite emacs key bindings, like C-a and C-e

programming pretty good practices

Programming Pretty Good Practices

  • Write code that works, most of the time at least.
  • Keep documentation up-to-date unless no one's going to read it anyway.
  • Use TDD, but don't both to hook up CI.
  • Hire a ScrumMaster (certified of course), and then tell him/her what to do on the team, based on your (uncertified) ideas of scrums from all those rugby games you watched last year.
  • Test files should exist to give the appearance of caring and design.
  • Popular libraries should be included to give the appearance of being cutting-edge.
  • Always use the words agile, rock start, and ninja in your job ads whether they apply to your existing team or not

alumni feedback to uva bov
as submitted via http://alumni.virginia.edu/contact/alumni-feedback/
I personally find the way that Sullivan left UVa to be consistent with the way I left,
through a non-transparent, closed-door decision that demonstrates neither scientific inquiry
nor academic rigor. It's great to see that the president is held to the same standards as students.
Speaking of standards, I believe that getting asked to leave the university demonstrates
that Sullivan was an upstanding person, who never lied, cheated or stole,
since I also know first hand that people don't get kicked out for those reasons.
