It's really useful for those who have challenges typing (arthritis, disabilities etc..), perhaps not best for general audience as typing with auto complete is faster.

This seems like a too smart for your own good situation.

Just because you can write a programming / scripting language doesn't mean you should.

There are tons being developed already, why not just adopt one of those.

I support NeoVims decision of going the lua route.

My company in South East Asia has been doing this for years now, we are in ride hailing and food delivery business among others.

Why is it important?

It drives empathy. Testing in non-production environment can tell that the feature is working as expected but it can't tell what the delivery person goes through or what the customer experience is like.

Our policy is not one trip but one day of doing this.

Overall it drivers a deeper appreciation towards deliver agents.

if you don't analyse something over 10 years, you don't know its effect over 10 years

Yes, that is why long term studies are done. Vaccine as a methodology has been proven effective. Many diseases are non-existent now thanks to it.

My knowledge is limited with respect to COVID vaccines but if they are any thing like the vaccines developed for flu strains then they will not have any adverse impact.

By using a variety of different vaccines all over the world the expression of humanity is that we are spreading the risk among various vaccine types or contracting COVID itself.

"spreading the risk among various vaccine types" could you elaborate on this?

What worked for me is to break a hard problem into smaller chunks that can be done in a day. That way at the end of the day I'm satisfied that the goal is met. Brain gets into a habit of not getting anxious about the whole thing.
