So does this mean that the “Second Breakfast” contingent of the Fellowship can be stored in one Hobnibble? Seems apt.

Okay, say you’ve got four inner loops (a crime on its own, I know), do you use i, j, k, l or i, j, k, ii?

You could just call this “Programmer programming” and save some screen real estate.

Something something DRY practices

Yeah, there’s probably some way to fix it if you have the motivation to dig into it. But it’s also not just a matter of reach, it seems the key combination doesn’t get interpreted the way I expect it to, probably because it’s using the Fn key.

But if I really need arrow keys, it only takes about thirty seconds to plug in a new board, so it works for me for now.

I was team numpad all the way, but then I received a 60% as a gift and I have to say, I’m quite impressed with it.

It’s pretty decent for gaming, you get more desktop real-estate for your mouse which is a huge plus. I’d also hazard a guess and say that the smaller size is more attractive for the average computer user.

Now that everything seems to take USB-C it’s really easy to swap out your board for something more suitable for your task. So if you really need a numpad, you can just swap your full size board back in.

Depending on your use case, you might be surprised how far you can get with a 60%. I thought the lack of arrow keys and F1-12 was really going to bite me, but I can use them easily enough for most cases - but not always. For instance, I wish I could still select text with Ctrl + Shift + arrow/home/end, but that’s out of reach now. But for 99% of my usage, it gets the job done.

The other comments explains it in pretty good detail, but when I was learning my teacher explained it sort of like a mnemonic.

1 + 1 = 2 is read “one plus one equals two”

1 + 1 == 2 is read “one plus one is equal to two”

1 + 1 === 2 is read “one plus one is really equal to two”

And you hit the nail on the head, is that === is type explicit while == is implicit.

I discovered comic mono a couple months ago and I’ve never looked back. It’s the perfect font

%.2f will format your number rounded to two decimal places. So if you had 1 / 3 it would come out as 0.33 instead of 0.333333

% is the placeholder for the value

.2 tells it ‘two spaces after the decimal’

f tells it that the placeholder is a float

Well hang on, with all the furries that use and contribute to Arch I’m not sure it would pass certification as not using animal byproducts
