If I run e.g. `:var a = 1` from the command line I end up in *E1124: "var" cannot be used in legacy vimscript*. Running on MacVim 9.0.1276. Is it normal behavior?
To use the vim9 script syntax your script must include as the first command `vim9script`. ``` vim9script var a = 1 ``` On the command line to run vim9 script command you have to prefix them with `:vim9` ``` :vim9 g:a = 1 ```

Syntax highlighting does not work when adding code blocks (Like StackOverflow) See [this answer](https://webapps.stackexchange.com/questions/7555/syntaxhighlighter-in-blogger-interpreting-br-literally-despite-html-encoding/7558#7558) for an example. It works here in meta though -@phwd
It is explicitly disabled. It should be disabled on meta as well. We don't feel code highlighting is needed on web apps -- preformatted text is all that is intended, and auto-syntax would be a negative, like so: ``` this is a table item1 item2 ----- ----- 3 a 4 b 5 c ```

There are some options: 1. You might want to make your account protected. If you do this, you can control who gets to follow you and who doesn't. However this also means that none of your tweets will be public, so people will have to follow you first (and you will have to accept them) before they can see your tweets. ...

Though that would be awesome - You cannot share a Smart List. You can share a List, or numerous tasks but not a Smart List. Here is how I would do it. Search for your tag ``` tag:grocery ``` And either select all your task you want to Share and just share that way (I think you already know this way) The other way,...

Use "Network inspector" function of your browser's script debugger and find second request to **timedtext** page after enabling transcribed subtitles then just copy all that request to the addressbar to download them in native YouTube xml format.

Is it possible to create an event that repeats at every 1st, 3rd and 5th Friday in the month in Google calendar?
Although Google Calendar doesn't allow you to create or modify arbitrary recurrence rules, the iCalendar specification which it uses and understands is *quite* robust in this regard. Create an ICS file with a custom recurrence rule (RRULE). For example, for an all-day event on the first, third, and fifth Fridays of ev...

You can use [the `sort()` function](http://code.google.com/googleapps/appsscript/class_range.html#sort) for that, but you have to have your data in one place, and an automatically sorted copy of that data in another place.
