Best explanation I've seen is he cut his ear on a secret service guy's button. Zoomed in pic showed blood on it.

Outside of making a search engine or trying to make a new browser or at least a plugin, I don't see how this would be useful. Getting anything fixed on the web is a heruclean task unless there is money not being made. Getting a government site fixed is harder than getting good legislation passed.

If it was a project that tried to route around things and auto sent emails with an overview might work, but I expect they would be thwarted by stupid network policies.

I'm just a hair too young to have dealt with gopher in any meaningful way, I went from bbs days to the web. The changes happened while I was in the military and I heard people talk about the web. Thought it was just bbs with some new terms. Played with gopher and Archie, Jughead, and Veronica after I got far enough in to understand the net just to see what else existed. Really cool to get some historical context on this stuff.

Async, so a few things don't block. If you have a plugging manager that updates, you can work while it does its thing. Clipboard is set up by default. The big thing was the code itself was refractored so more than just Bram can work on it.

Stack overflow has people ask how do I X with vim, and pretty consistently you'll discover some new way to do things.

Basically, if you find yourself doing something often, expect that someone else did in the post and made a better way in vim.

Here is a good one to start with. https://medium.com/usevim/vim-101-virtual-editing-661c99c05847
