The Nix Language, while goofy at times, is built for config-as-code and is hiding a decent little functional language in what looks like just attribute assignments. Likewise, CUE L…

A couple of months ago I switched from Neovim with a carefully crafted config file to Helix with zero config. I haven't looked back. As far a performance, well, Helix + Alacritty i…

This gives me hope. I've been thinking lately that one of the ways that we get through this intense disequilibrium is through a youth counterculture that treats social media as som…

I'm also used to functional programming. The only thing I can not stand about Dart is that types are coupled to classes. If you want to use stateless functions and typed data shape…

My compromise has been to use [flutter-rs]( https://github.com/flutter-rs/flutter-rs ). Flutter is a powerful and performant GUI/Drawing framework, even if you need to hold your no…

ITT: everyone pretending they've never burned hours troubleshooting only to find a stupid `=` instead of a `==`.

The Joe Rogan episodes with Bari Weiss (the author of this piece) have some of the worst like to disliked ratio in the catalog. She is no friend of the podcast.
