  • Running To The Sea - Röyksopp + Susanne Sundfør

    And the river flows beneath your skin Like savage horses kept within And all is wasted in the sand Like breaking diamonds with your hand

    And the river grows inside of me And the river grows inside of me And the river grows inside of me And the river grows inside of me

  • I just learned that in Terminal on the Mac, if you Option click anywhere in the current line that you’re typing, your cursor jumps there. You don’t have to hold down the arrow key until you get where you want to go. You can just jump there. Mind blown.

  • Know those movie fight scenes when one person is choking out someone else until they die or at least go unconscious?

    I’ve always thought that the person being choked should fake their body going limp and then get the jump on the person choking them. Why does no one ever do that?

    But tonight I got a better idea. What if the person getting choked taps out by slapping the ground, wrestling style?

    The choker lets go of them reflexively, because that’s just what you do when someone taps out.

    And then the person getting choked turns the tables on them. That would be hilarious.

  • It would be great if browsers detected tab opening velocity. The way I see it working:

    I open 20 tabs in a furious burst, trying to get answers to some horribly documented bit of Rails functionality

    After 30 mins or so, it’ll show me all of those tabs I opened and ask me to review them or close them all.
