What your talking about is called a clipboard manager, and there are tons of them out there. All with varying features.

MIT gives YOU more freedom

After years of debate about licenses for my own software (that only I use…), my philosophy has been boiled down to this: MIT for libraries. GPL for programs.

This way, other developers can freely use your library, and your program remains free.

I’m sure there’s some obscure key bind to go directly there

It’s just Cmd+Shift+H (for Home). The shortcuts for many of the most common locations are extremely intuitive.

• Cmd+Shift+A (Applications)
• Cmd+Shift+D (Desktop)
• Cmd+Shift+L (~/Library)
• Cmd+Shift+C (Computer)

Same with Python. I use a combination of the platformdirs and xdg libraries.

XDG gang, rise up!

Also, I know that this community and dot-files in general are Unix based, but this holds true for Windows development as well. You should be putting app files in the users’ %APPDATA% directory, not their user folder. It’s probably even more important since Windows doesn’t autohide dot files.

The links from that post and top comment point out that that initiative was dropped. It got mired down in bikeshedding from hundreds of opinions and SO eventually just said, “Fuck it.”

The MIT announcement thread was edited with the cancellation announcment:

Update: January 15, 2016

Thank you for your patience and feedback. The changes proposed here have been delayed indefinitely - we’ll be back later to open some more discussions.

The top comment from your link points out the current license:

TL;DR: Source code on SO is still licensed under CC-BY-SA.

And CC BY-SA is the only license listed on the official help page.

• Content contributed before 2011-04-08 (UTC) is distributed under the terms of CC BY-SA 2.5.
• Content contributed from 2011-04-08 up to but not including 2018-05-02 (UTC) is distributed under the terms of CC BY-SA 3.0.
• Content contributed on or after 2018-05-02 (UTC) is distributed under the terms of CC BY-SA 4.0.

You’re supposed to do that anyway. Code on SO is licensed as CC BY-SA, which requires attribution.

Communism =/= leftism. It’s an extreme form of socialism.

My biggest problem isn’t even the communist ideals. Have your ideas, that’s fine. I don’t care.

My problem is the amount of people coming into post comments attacking American Imperialism® on posts that aren’t even related to communist ideals or, sometimes, that don’t even mention America. It gets tiring reading how much America sucks when that’s not even the point of the post.

“What did that code look like two minutes ago?”

• Cmd+A
• Cmd+C
• Cmd+ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

“Oh, ok.”

• Cmd+Shift+ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

I agree with Proxmox. I know it’s 10 years old, but it seems a waste to use a 10 core, 64GB machine as a firewall.

Actually…put Proxmox on it and put the firewall in a LXC container.
