IDEs With VIM Text Editing Capability? 193

Posted by timothy on Wednesday December 30, 2009 @03:30PM from the one-keybinding-to-rule-them-all dept.

An anonymous reader writes "I am currently looking to move from text editing with vim to a full fledged IDE with gdb integration, integrated command line, etc. Extending VIM with these capabilities is a mortal sin, so I am looking for a linux based GUI IDE. I do not want to give up the efficient text editing capabilities of VIM though. How do I have my cake and eat it too?"

Posted by samzenpus on Monday August 31, 2009 @12:49PM from the don't-type-angry dept.

tomachi writes "An accountant in NZ has been awarded $17,000 NZD for unfair dismissal after her boss fired her without warning for using uppercase letters in a single email to co-workers. The email, which advises her team how to fill out staff claim forms, specifies a time and date highlighted in bold red, and a sentence written in capitals and highlighted in bold blue. It reads: 'To ensure your staff claim is processed and paid, please do follow the below checklist.' Her boss deemed the capital letters too confrontational for her co-workers to read after they woke up from naptime."

IRS Doesn't Check Cyberaudit Logs 78

Posted by samzenpus on Thursday December 18, 2008 @08:57AM from the check-your-work-twice dept.

An anonymous reader writes "The US Internal Revenue Service's IT staff hasn't routinely checked its cybersecurity audit logs, according to a report released this week by the agency's inspector general's office. The report is not exactly flattering for the IRS. The report, with large chunks redacted, recommends the IRS allow independent review of audit logs and establish procedures to save audit logs. It also recommended that the IRS regularly test its Internet gateways for compliance with standard security configurations."

Also, it is also a quite interesting to note that the countries making most of the shouting and burning embassies (where the mob is strangely organised by man with radios and the signs all have the same handwritting and such) are Syria, which is being accused by everyone of assasination of a Libanise politician, Iran, which ust restarted its nuclear program despite
strong objections from all over the world and EU as well, Saudi Arabia, where loads ofpeople died recently visiting Mecca and Egypt, where the goverment needs to appear more religious than the islamist party in case it loses more power.

As it was mentioned before the cartoons were published long ago but noweveryone takes offence after 6 months.

In britain people were demonstrating holding signs that said "fuck freedom" and the like.
When the police indicated that there might be arrests the same people sighted "freedom of expression" immidiately.

Religious fanatism is the worst stupidity in the world wherever it comes from.
