  • I think ignorance (in the non pejorative sense) plays a big part. I can’t really blame my non technical friends for not fully understanding that ditching Facebook for Instagram doesn’t help. Even if they know it’s the same company, it’s still a totally different product, right? There’s also a certain apathy or need to just get something done.

    I’m sure I’ve purchased things at Home Depot that would make a plumber cringe, but I know nothing about that sort of thing and I just need to get my sink working.

    Still, I think those of us who do know should continue to lead by example. My friends know my stance on these things and some of them are coming around.






  • Just a few minor changes to the default layout. I swapped the the up/down arrows on the right half so it matches Vim’s j/k I also put the space bar and backspace on the left thumb cluster. This was mostly for games so I don’t have to remap space. Delete went to the right thumb cluster. The last thing was to put ‘=’ next to 0. My brain just couldn’t handle the default ‘=’ being on the left hand. Instead I put '' on the left hand below F1. I use that key less often so it wasn’t a big deal. In general, I got used to the rest of the default layer pretty quickly, and the deviations aren’t too far from a standard keyboard.
