A friend was reviewing some system misconfigurations on his PC today and piped a file directly into Neovim. The rationale for using a text editor as a terminal pager was to utilise its syntax highlighting and search capabilities.

This is effective for reading short configuration scripts. When handling massive log files, pagers like less or more provide a more efficient mechanism. A standard pager streams the text incrementally for immediate viewing. Neovim attempts to load the entire document into system memory.

15 команд, 1 продукт, 14 проектов в Jira. Что не так?

Пока команда одна — всё логично: бэклог, доска, понятный поток. Но когда команд становится пятнадцать и все работают над одним продуктом — Jira начинает вести себя странно. Product Owner открывает утро с обхода четырёх проектов, задачи дублируются, а зависимости живут в комментариях. Разбираемся, почему это не про «плохую Jira», а про конфликт моделей.

I've tried. batcat as a replacement for cat. It just doesn't work. cat $foo > $bar -- I need to remember to disable colors. I filed a bugreport at Debian for it, because it should detect this (via some shape way or form) and it currently doesn't. It keeps breaking my usage for cat. Perhaps I should alias it to less. But batcat != cat replacement.

A thing I've only just realised about #less: [UPDATE: but fixed in less 610]

When you press '/' to search forward, or '?' to search backward, and enter a regex, two changes of state occur:

1. The regex is remembered, so that 'n' or 'N' will search for the same thing again.
2. The direction is remembered, so that 'n' searches in the same direction again, and 'N' searches in the opposite direction.

I've only just noticed that #2 happens at the instant of pressing / or ?, not at the instant of pressing Return. Because it takes effect even if you change your mind and cancel the attempt to input a new search regex:

• enter "?foo", which searches backward for /foo/
• press 'n', which searches backward for /foo/ again
• press '/', which prompts for a forward-search string
• press Backspace, which cancels that prompt
• now pressing 'n' searches *forward* for /foo/

I think this must be why I sometimes get confused about which direction I'm searching in. But also, wow, it's taken me _decades_ to notice. I think it must be because when I start and then cancel a prompt like that, I don't consciously remember doing it at all – I expected so strongly that it would be a no-op that I forget it immediately!
