We revisit the G1GC recommendation every once it a while. In fact, I am doing benchmarks and testing for G1GC versus CMS with Elasticsearch 6.0.0 right now, so that we have a better idea of where we stand.

Disclaimer: I'm an Elasticsearch dev employed by Elastic.

> You may need to use a trigram index, which you cannot do with ElasticSearch and Lucene

You definitely can create an analyzer to generate trigrams in Elasticsearch. Unless you mean something different with "trigram index" than indexing trigrams?

While this is an awesome extension, it is annoying living in the EU to continually see "This site uses cookies, click 'accept' to acknowledge and continue to the site" every time I visit a site that has had its cookies cleared, since the acknowledgement is stored in a cookie that is subsequently cleared when the tab is closed.

I don't see any kind of privacy policy link on the site, could one be added spelling out how the email address will be used?

Software "Artificer"?

Artifice: "Clever or cunning devices or expedients, esp. as used to trick or deceive others: 'artifice and outright fakery'."

Not necessarily the greatest way to describe yourself...

Project-specific configs can be committed to a repo to override the default configuration.

A server is spun up and credentials given to all the invited users. Once a user logs in they can connect to a common tmux server and share a text-editor/cli/etc.

Why not use Eclim[1] instead, since it allows you to embed an actual vim editor into Eclipse if desired and get all of Vim's features?

[1]: http://eclim.org

Here's the short list:

* NERD_tree - Nice tree list of files for project browsing

* NERD_commenter - Mapped to ,c<Spc> to toggle between commenting and uncommenting

* SimpleFold - Folding that doesn't suck courtesy of the eigenclass blog

* a.vim - quickly alternate between a .c and .h file

* ack - way better searching than vimgrep or regular grep

* vimclojure - A must-have for Clojure dev in Vim <3

* ctk - auto-compilation and syntax check for languages. I use it to check ruby files on save

* easytags - automatically generate the tags file for your buffers

* eclim - I develop enterprise Java, eclim keeps me sane by giving my almost all of Eclipse's useful features in Vim

* fuzzyfinder - great file-finding tool similar to Emacs' C-x C-f

* gist - automatically post your buffer to a gist, download gists etc, super handy

* localvimrc - allows me to have project-specific vimrcs

* matchit - for beter % matching

* narrow - Emacs'-style narrowing and widening

* netrw - edit files remotely over ftp/ssh/etc

* paredit - the paredit.vim file from the slimv plugin, doesn't work as well as Emacs' paredit, but it's semi-useful

* pastie - post your buffer to pastie

* rails - various helpers from the vim-ruby project for rails

* repeat - allows repeating things that aren't normally repeatable with '.'

* securemodelines - don't let people do mean things in modelines

* showmarks - I'm on the fence with this one, great if you use a lot of marks and want to show them

* slime - pipe text from a vim buffer to a screen session

* snipmate - Textmate-like snippets for various languages

* supertab - tab-completion that works pretty well, this + eclim is great for java dev

* surround - tools for messing with surroundings of files

* taglist - use ctags to display a tag list in a pane

* twitvim - seriously, why use a twitter client when you can use vim

* vimball - used to install a lot of vim plugins

* vimwiki - I store all of my tech-related text here

* visualstar - this lets you use '' to search for more than just a single word

yankring - a ring of yanks when doing copy/paste

If I had to pick just one for a favorite, it'd be a tie between fuzzyfinder and NERD_tree, way better than manually trying to find the file to edit.

In addition there are quite a few filetype plugins for better syntax highlighting for the variety of languages I work with.

From the FAQ:

Q: Why is it written in Mono/C#? A: Because I hate freedom.

:)

I tried Conque and didn't care for it, refreshing was slow and I favored the detached approach.

I do, however, encourage everyone to try out the different options to find what works for them, what works for me doesn't work for everyone. Conque is a really neat plugin, it's definitely worth a shot for people shopping around.
