Interesting! Do you have a page which compares globstar against other similar tools, like Semgrep, ast-grep, Comby, etc?

For instance, something like https://ast-grep.github.io/advanced/tool-comparison.html#com....

I wonder if we'll ever get /usr/bin/python back. Or is it going to be like browser user-agent strings where we call it "python3" forever and forget why we can't just call it python?

You can install the [python-is-python3][0] package on 20.04, which symlinks /usr/bin/python to python3.

One built-in feature (not enabled by default) that I absolutely love is persistent undo. Love it.

Basically, undo trees can be persisted across vim sessions. Have a read via ":help undo-persistence".

Very cool. Do you know if you can "mark" spaces in time to jump back to like you can spatially in vim? Sometimes I change a bunch of random stuff at once to try and get something to work, and perhaps this use case would be better suited to an actual git commit but I feel like a mark in time might be a good inbetween measure.

The closest thing I'm aware of is ":earlier {N}f", which "[Goes] to older text state {N} file writes before.".

So once you're somewhat happy with what you've got, write the file, and then continue editing, repeat, and you can revert back to any previous saved file state.

Indeed it is: http://isup.me/stackoverflow.com

It's surprising how much this hurts my productivity. And as great as archive.org is, it's not a very good substitute in this case[0], as most questions aren't archived.
