    What issues did you have with GDscript's signals? I've been using Godot for > 2 years and had no issues with them.

    I can't speak to the strengths of the VScode plugin, but if it's anything like the emacs gdscript plugin (which I use with Spacemacs + vi keybindings), then the integration is very…

    The limitations of Godot's in-engine text editor can be compensated by a more powerful external editor: VScode, emacs, vim, etc. An example would be the lack of remappable keybindi…

    I've heard good things about Hetzner. How do they compare to Linode?

    Logging to console, to build a mental model of the codepaths data and events take. Git grep (or ripgrep) to find usage - useful when refactoring and to see how data is used/accesse…

    Not so much crunch, but I do stress over leaving WIP in a clean state that colleagues can pick up while I'm gone. That's a useful insight - thanks.

    Oh, interesting. Thank you! It's odd to see something I experience, put into words by others.

    Ask HN: Does anyone else get sick when their vacation starts?

    For at least the past 7 years, without fail, as soon as I start my vacation (whether it's staying at home, or going abroad) I get sick. Cold/flu-like symptoms. Time of year makes n…

    I suffer with chronic sleep issues. This is yet another reason to blanket block all medium articles.

    It looks interesting, but I wouldn't even download or use it for free, knowing I have to send out an email just to find out what the pricing tiers are (even for an individual user)…

    I hope so. I have a part 3 and 4 written locally: I just need to find time to edit them.

    Cool! I went over something similar in an old blog post ( https://joellord.dev/blog/posts/Build-a-Text-Editor-in-Lisp-... ) only I did the C portion in Common Lisp too, using CFFI …

    I was excited to read about this. An upgraded C would be nice. Unfortunately, after the homepage, this seems disastrously opposed to anything resembling a "better" C. The features …

    I would appreciate if you could share that Youtube download script.
