hectorperez / copy word under cursor in Vim.txt
Created August 7, 2014 13:37
copy word under cursor in Vim
copy/delete word under cursor in Vim
yw / byw
Assuming that the cursor is at the first character of the word simply do this in command mode:
yw
y is for yank and w is for word.
Other ways of doing the same thing which are not as efficient:
vey
the v starts visual select mode. e tells vim to move to end of word. y yanks or copies the word. to delete replace y with x.

Big list of http static server one-liners

Each of these commands will run an ad hoc http static server in your current (or specified) directory, available at http://localhost:8000. Use this power wisely.

Latency numbers every programmer should know

Latency numbers every programmer should know

L1 cache reference ......................... 0.5 ns
Branch mispredict ............................ 5 ns
L2 cache reference ........................... 7 ns
Mutex lock/unlock ........................... 25 ns
Main memory reference ...................... 100 ns             
Compress 1K bytes with Zippy ............. 3,000 ns  =   3 ยตs
Send 2K bytes over 1 Gbps network ....... 20,000 ns  =  20 ยตs
SSD random read ........................ 150,000 ns  = 150 ยตs

Read 1 MB sequentially from memory ..... 250,000 ns = 250 ยตs
