If the find dialog is open and you click on "find in folder" the dialog will go away.  I would expect it to stay open and update the "in location" field with the folder that I have selected.

Ctrl+D Ctrl+K doesn't work as expected when it wraps around the file

Istvan Kispal 12 years ago 0

When the next match found by Ctrl+D is above the starting point (search wraps around to the beginning of the file). Ctrl+D Ctrl+K will toggle the selection of the match with the highest line number instead of the last match, which actually has the lowest line number.

lazy tasks

Klaus Hougesen 11 years ago 0

Create a way for both plugin developers and users to run "lazy task" at various points. for instance: register lazy task in a queue and execute on startup once, every 10 minutes, every day etc.After typing and nothing happens for 10 minutes etc.


Example: 

Package Manager could use this to register an "update repository as stream when nothing is happening" and stop as soon as something is happening (it would be up to the author to continue from last load index or begin again).


User build lets say just compiling some .less to .css or linting to a log, could be registered as a lazy task . run when available, run once anytime after startup 


etc.

Keep files open at all time.

Thorsten Ott 11 years ago 0

I'm using a 3 pane layout with one main editor group on the left and 2 horizontally split groups on the right. In the bottom right I have my notes and would like to preserve these open files at all time.


Is there any way to do this? Can I tell Sublime to open certain files in a certain group by default?

When dragging on the minimap, the page jitters as if there were some kind of rounding error. Dragging the scrollbar is completely smooth.

The problem only appears when the minimap extends beyond the viewport.

The Great American Wind Power Fraud

aerten ava 11 years ago 0

In July theHeartland Institute’s Environmental & Climate Newsreported on the announcement by Nordex USA, a manufacturer of wind turbines that had accepted millions of dollars in subsidies while promising to create 750 jobs that it had shut down its Jonesboro facility. In 2008, Gov. Mike Beebe (D) had given Nordex $8 million from the Governor’s Quick-Action Closing Fund and the Arkansas DevelopmentFinance Authority had given Nordex another $11 million. The decision, said the company, was its uncertainty about receiving federal subsidies. At the time, only fifty people were employed there.

In early October, the House Oversight and Government Reform Subcommittee on Energy Policy, Healthcare, and Entitlements held a hearing on the Wind Production Tax Credit (PTC). The American Wind Energy Association (AWEA) was there to argue for an extension of the subsidy. According to lobbying disclosures, in 2012 the AWEA had spent more than $2.4 million to protect the subsidy which was set to expire, but which received a one-year extension as part of the deal struck to avoid the “fiscal cliff.”

Arguing that wind energy is an important element of the mix of energy provided by coal, natural gas, nuclear and hydroelectric facilities, the facts are that in 2012 coal accounted for 37 percent of total generation, natural gas represented 30 percent, and nuclear contributed 19 percent. Wind power accounted for just 1.4 percent of U.S. energy consumption in 2012 and only 3.5 percent of the nation’s electricity generation.

Since the PTC was first enacted two decades ago, it has cost taxpayers $20 billion dollars.

One of the primary arguments for wind energy is that it is “renewable” and does not contribute to the so-called “greenhouse gas emissions” that are the cause of a “global warming.” However, the latest warming cycle ended some fifteen years ago. Not one student in our nation’s schools has ever experienced “global warming.”

Wind energy is “green” say its supporters, but it is hardly “green” to kill an estimated 573,000 birds every year, including 83,000 birds of prey according to a study published in the March edition of the Wildlife Society Bulletin. It also kills countless bats, a species that reduces the vast number of insect pests that prey on crops and transmit diseases.

A permit is being sought by the Shiloh IV Wind Project in Solano County, California, that would grant it the right to kill up to five golden eagles over a five-year period despite their protected status under the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act.

So wind energy is justified as reducing greenhouse gases that are not causing global warming which does not exist, is receiving millions in subsidies, and wants to kill protected species, an environmental objective. This is hypocrisy on a galactic scale.

Testifying before the congressional committee, Dr. Robert Michaels, a senior fellow of the Institute for Energy Research, noted that the subsidy which was supposed to end by now has been renewed five times. The wind industry is essentially non-competitive when it comes to energy generation from traditional sources and has also been around long enough to amply demonstrate that. In a market economy, such industries are allowed to fail.

The wind industry, however, doesn’t even need to be competitive because utilities in some thirty states are required by law to include it in their “renewable portfolio standards” that set quotes for its use. This mandate is expected to see the installation of more than 100,000 renewable megawatts over the next twenty years and wind, said Dr. Michaels, and “seems certain to get the lion’s share.”

Adding to the idiocy of wind energy is the need for such production facilities to have a back-up from traditional coal, natural gas, and nuclear facilities because wind is not available with any predictability. The consumer not only pays for the electricity these facilities provide to ensure that they will always have electricity, but pays in the form of the subsidies the wind industry continues to receive.

There is no need for renewable energy mandates. Both wind and solar are unreliable sources of energy and produce so little as to lack any justification for their existence.

The wind industry exists because it spends millions annually to convince legislators that it should not only be subsidized and because many states require its use. Take away the interference of government entities and the industry would have no real basis to exist. It is a fraud.

Make the quick open pre-load feature run asynchrsonously

Scott Bowers 14 years ago updated by Jon Skinner 14 years ago 0
When you're typing text into the quick-open box, sublime will pre-load the currently selected item. This causes latency when typing in the interface when the pre-load feature is loading a file over a network.

The pre-load of the currently selected file should run asynchronously to the interface, so the user can continue typing or navigating with speed.

File loading itself has always been async, but there was still some IO done in the main thread. Build 2032 resolves this.

{ "command": "move", "args": {"by": "words_ends", "forward": false} } doesn't do anything

Jocelyn Turcotte 13 years ago 0
Same for { "command": "move", "args": {"by": "word", "forward": true} }. Semantically it would do exactly what I want, but the keys aren't doing anything if I try to configure it.

This is not the standard way I know, but I like to configure it that way (stops before words) for ctrl+right and keep the normal way (stops after words) for ctrl+shift+right.

So if I want to go around and select text from the beginning of a word to the end of another word it just snaps right where I expect it to.

This is the last missing piece that annoys me, if you fix it I'll buy you a license :)

Haskell "module" keyword versus identifier with same prefix

Tony Morris 12 years ago 0

 The word "module" is a Haskell keyword, however, creating an identifier with a prefix of "module" is also valid. e.g.


modulez = "hi" -- valid Haskell


Unfortunately, this causes the editor to think I have used the module keyword, which screws up highlighting.

The great environment scam

Christoffmieger 11 years ago 0

http://www.thehindubusinessline.com/opinion/the-great-environment-scam/article5075991.ece


The exploitation of natural resources to benefit select industrial houses under the pretext of catering to the socio-economic requirements of the people has become a matter of serious concern. Of course, for the economy to grow we cannot avoid utilising natural resources. The question is: How should we make use of them?

  The answer to this simple question is not simple because the issue of utilisation of natural resources is a sensitive matter. Of late, the wrongful allocation of scarce resources such as oil, gas, iron ore and coal by unscrupulous elements has brought the issue into focus. 


Examples of how public money has been virtually looted include the 2G spectrum scam, the coal gate scam, irregularities in the exploitation of natural gas in the KG basin, and allocation of iron ore mines in Karnataka.   What is alarming is that while states lose huge chunks of revenue due to dubious methods of allocation of natural resources, corporate exploitation of resources to bolster financial prospects ignoresthe consequent ecological imbalance which affectsthe habitat of the regions concerned. But amid all this noise, there is a more fundamental question that has not been asked — what is it really that we are losing? 

  

The loss to national exchequer is the manifestation of only one world view. It is a computation of the loss in rupees incurred by the national treasury because a whole set of people ducked the system. But in fact, the country is losing much more than revenue.According to a Greenpeace India report over 1.1 million hectares of forest are at risk from coal mining in 13 coalfields in central India that the report analysed; 40 others still remain to be evaluated. The estimated loss of Rs1.86 lakh crore is only the notional value of a single resource; it does not include the value of anything. The land is scarred, without concern for economic losses nor legalities.

Investigative Training at Koyal Group: Labour calls for new cyber-crime powers

danielschweize 11 years ago 0
Eandt.Theiet.org
Labour wants new powers that allow security services to crack down on cyber-crimes, but only with extra checks on how sensitive data is used.

A 30 per cent hike in recorded online fraud is just the "tip of the iceberg", shadow home secretary Yvette Cooper will warn, but fears about abuse of information by British intelligence agency GCHQ in the wake of leaks by ex-US security contractor Edward Snowden means new safeguards are needed to protect privacy.

Last year controversial plans by Home Secretary Theresa May to enable the police and security services to track emails and other online communications under what was labelled a "snooper's charter" were blocked by the Liberal Democrats.

Cooper will warn the government it must not "bury its head in the sand" as she calls for reforms to keep up with the ever-changing cyber world, saying much stricter controls over access to private data must be introduced to give the public confidence amid fears about the way information can currently be accessed and used.

Today, in a speech in central London to the Demos think tank, Cooper will call for a new national strategy for tackling online fraud, tougher action to tackle online child pornography and an overhaul of parliament's Intelligence and Security Committee, which keeps a check on the work of the intelligence agencies.

She is expected to say: "In the face of growing online crime and abuse, and the use of online communications by criminals and extremists, the police, intelligence and security agencies need to be able to operate more effectively in this digital world. But for them to do so, we also need stronger safeguards and limits to protect our privacy and sustain confidence in their vital work.

"The oversight and legal frameworks are now out of date. That means we need major reforms to oversight and a thorough review of the legal framework to keep up with changing technology. And there are difficult wider challenges about privacy, data and the private sector, and how we protect British citizens' interests in a global Internet where everyone follows different rules.

"Above all we need the government to engage in a serious public debate about these new challenges and the reforms that are needed. Online communication and technology is forcing us to think again about our traditional frameworks for balancing privacy and safety, liberty and security.

“The government can't keep burying its head in the sand and hoping these issues will go away – they are too important for that, for our liberty, our security, the growth of our economy and the health of our democracy."

Cooper will highlight the growth in online child abuse as one of the most disturbing developments. Last year the Child Exploitation and Online Protection Agency received 18,887 reports of child abuse – an increase of 14 per cent on the year.

But according to Christian Berg, CEO of NetClean, a company that works with police, Internet service providers and private companies to prevent the exchange of child sexual abuse material, tough words are not enough to tackle the problem.

“Today’s cyber criminals are becoming more sophisticated and their crimes are more complex to investigate,” he said. “The widespread use of smartphones and digital cameras means that police must process a mass of visual evidence as well as written or numerical data. Existing forensic tools aren’t designed to deal with this.

"Police and intelligence services can’t act tougher without the right tools to help them do so. Cyber crime investigations today require police to process terabytes of data comprising millions of individual files. They can't do this effectively with manpower alone.

“It’s definitely possible to take a tougher approach without infringing on privacy. Illegal content can be identified without either a human or a computer having to ‘look’ at it.

“Every image or video leaves a digital fingerprint behind, and by tracking those that are known to be illegal police can spot new occurrences without searching through other content. We’ve got to be smart to tackle cyber crime – talking tough won’t cut it."
