Oooh! I've been waiting for someone to try to replace LaTeX.

I used Zotero all through uni, but I've recently discovered JabRef. Zotero probably has more features and polish, but JabRef has one killer feature: Your plaintext BibLaTeX file is your reference database. So you can version control and collaborate on your reference file with git. No export required.

But how do you authenticate to your secret manager? How do you prevent evil scripts from also doing this?

It's not so much that I believe it 'by default'. Rather, when I've examined the historical case for the resurrection, the arguments that it really happened seem stronger than the arguments that it was a hoax, or a mass hallucination, or that he fainted etc.

You can also type ZZ (uppercase, so hold Shift) to write and quit. But for all of the above you have to be in normal mode, so if it doesn't work, try pressing Esc first.

Reformed Christian. I was raised in a Christian family, and always believed in the basic concepts of God, heaven, hell, etc. But I mistakenly thought Christianity was about trying to be "good enough" for God until my mid teens. Around this time I realised that I couldn't be perfect, which was super distressing for a time. But then I read Ephesians 2:8-9 which says:

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast.

This was a big relief, as it meant that I didn't need to rely on trying to be good enough for God. I just needed to accept God's free gift of salvation. That's the moment I would say I became a Christian.

Since then, I've had times where I've questioned it all, but I always come back to the resurrection of Jesus. I find the non-miraculous explanations of the resurrection account to be so implausible that it makes more sense to accept that it's a historical fact. And if the resurrection's true, then it makes sense to believe the rest of it as well.

Use RSS. Find good independent blogs which meet your standards of good open web content and subscribe to them. Some places to look:

Also, start your own website/blog and link to other websites and blogs.

Depends what you're trying to learn, and how much of a beginner you are. If you want to learn the shell, try the Software Carpentry tutorials:

If you know the basics, you might try honing your skills with CLI Mystery (murder mystery puzzle).

You'll probably want to learn how to use the following:

  • SSH
  • Command-line text editor. Choose one of the following:

The final tip is: It's usually better in the long run to spend 2 hours reading the documentation than 2 minutes searching the web. Reading the documentation helps you to understand the big picture, and gives you a much better foundation. Of course, if you're reading the documentation and don't understand something, searching the web is an OK way to figure it out.
