Smart Caps Lock: Remap to Control AND Escape (Linux, Mac, Windows)

把 Caps Lock 變成智慧的 Control 以及 Escape ：

• 單獨輕按一下就是 Escape 。
• 若按下時同時按著其他鍵，就會是 Control 。

這應該是 Vim 和 Emacs 的最佳解了！(Emacs? Bash 的快捷鍵就是 Emacs 系列的)

• Send Escape if you tap Caps Lock alone.

An opinionated list of excellent Clojure learning materials

These resources (articles, books, and videos) are useful when you're starting to learn the language, or when you're learning a specific part of the language. This an opinionated list, no doubt. I've compiled this list from writing and teaching Clojure over the last 10 years.

I'm a fan of Logitech mouses, but when when connecting via Bluetooth on Mac OS, they are laggy & sluggish. Today I come across this post on Reddit, which shows the solution for this annoying issue.

In terminal run this command:

sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.airport.bt.plist bluetoothCoexMgmt Hybrid

How to Convert iBook EPUBs to standard EPUBs

iBooks EPUBs actually show up on macOS as folders. If you need the actual file you can use the above script to convert your iBook directory of files to a destination directory.

The path of iBook files as of macOS 10.15.7 is: /Users/${USER}/Library/Mobile Documents/iCloud~com~apple~iBooks/Documents

I used to map Caps Lock to Escape just because I never use Caps Lock at all. Recently I was interested in hhkb layout, with the CTRL key at the position of Caps Lock. And then I found this repo:

https://github.com/rvaiya/keyd

Basically, it allows mapping Caps Lock to CTRL/Escape at the same time. When hitting CAPS, it becomes ESC but when using CAPS in conjuction with other keys (like when we use CTRL-C, CTRL-V) then CAPS become CTRL.

Absolutely fantastic tool.
