That was a slimy downsizing measure. IBM doesn't have to pay severance if their remote workers quit on their own rather than come in 9 to 5.


On OSX, in Sublime Text:

- CMD with arrow keys moves to line ends

- Alt with arrow keys moves between words

- Ctrl, under some circumstances, lets you operate on parts of a camelCased or snake_cased word (with backspace and with shift + arrow keys, but not with arrow keys all by themselves)

It's the best setup for moving around code that I've encountered.


I like vims better to be honest. More granularity, and I can stay on home row instead of moving my hand to and from the arrow keys.
