Same here. I've been using Lenovo/ThinkPads for the last 12 years mainly because of the pointer. It's perfect for programming. I'm more productive and focused when I keep my hands …

Haha, no. I'm waiting desperately for one that ships with a pointer. Seems like I'm stuck with Lenovo/ThinkPad forever...

I configure bindings through Zigbee2MQTT. You can view the bindings in the switch configuration, where you can also update or remove them. I use Zigbee2MQTT to handle low-level Zig…

I think it's called 'direct binding.' All of my lights are directly bound to my switches, so they work even without the server or Zigbee coordinator running. With some switches, yo…

Same. I was using intellij, then vscode the ten years before I switched to doom. I tried a lot of other editors and IDEs, but emacs was the only one with good vim integration. From…

This is awesome, thanks for sharing! I think this should be added to the PyO3 examples list :) https://github.com/PyO3/pyo3#examples

Python supports type annotations and static typing via mypy and co. I find statically typed Python is absolutely comparable to other statically typed languages. At least I don't fe…

You can compile your Python code using Nuitka, the resulting binary has much better startup time. I do this for a couple of command line tools.

This looks interesting! I think the approach where a typed subset of Python is used to compile a fast extension module is the way forward for Python. This would leave us with a slo…

Nuitka is great! I use it to compile some of the command line tools which I have written. Command lines tools compiled with Nuitka have a much better startup time. Nuitka also has …

Same here. I don't understand why AsciiDoc doesn't get more attention.

> What is it about writing views the React way that appeals to you more? JSX is JS thus it's powerful. I prefer to use JS to "sprinkel the magic", rather than using yet another (aw…

I wish there was a union operator for typing as well to replace `Union[str, int]` with just `[str|int]`.

AFAIK, Julia has a garbage collector. I envision the thing more like a rust split into two variants. One with GC and mandatory typing, one without.

I hope the next big programming language will be one that is split into two language-variants: the "low-level-variant" and the "high-level-variant". The high-level-variant is a dyn…

> The 2/3 mess (yes it is still a thing) It's still a thing for the (loud) few who couldn't manage to move to 3 after 10 years. The rest just went on. The ecosystem is on 3 [0] and…

That's why I went with git-subrepo [0] over submodules. [0]: https://github.com/ingydotnet/git-subrepo

If I would have to port a code base from 2 to 3 today, I think the first thing I would do is add type annotations to to the code base via typing/mypy and go from there. A fully typ…

Same here. I love to keep my hands on the home row. Nothing can beat a pointer with a concave cap! I check the system76 laptops every once in a while only to see if they added a po…
