It's powerful, lightweight, and ubiquitous. If you do sysadmin work, remote into a random machine, and need to update a config file, it probably has vi installed already. It's also extensible enough to use as a full IDE.

Personally, I like it because of how fast it feels and because I can do everything while keeping my hands on the home row of the keyboard.

I'm about at that point. I had to set up a Windows VM last year to do some testing. It was more of a struggle to install than I expected.

If you look at the mechanisms of poisons, they all mess up some process in the animal or plant.

For example, Glyphosate is a very effective herbicide. It prevents plants from producing some amino aids. It "starves" the plant.

I'm not surprised. I have no idea what their specific situation was, but I've known a couple people going through the green card process. And each was its own brand of long, painful, and expensive.
