    I use that syntax during work and still needed a hint to mentally parse the comment this way

      well, especially since se also works as a domain, so I originally was expecting, to use related syntax for fun se|li (or plain old se/li) and had to go back and reread. At first read it as se/org/li as in, “se OR org OR li” work and I thought, “no, they just said org doesn’t work.” Then I reread and recognized the sed pattern.

      Yeah, press x to doubt

      I used these expressions too and when you see them, you know what it is

        I’m just having problems switching contexts.

        When I’m working on some code or whatever this Syntax comes naturally in vim, but I was thinking in non-sw-dev context and thought those are a list of substitutes and got majorly confused until I saw the next comments

        Sometimes the mind is just in another place

        Not sure what’s so hard to believe about that
