    One of the oddities of the comments Claude makes is that they are very referential to the current session, or reference now dead/removed code... Which I consider useless. Things li…

    I've gotta disagree with you here - it's not uncommon for me to be diving into a library I'm using at work, find a small issue or something that could be improved (measurably, not …

    Random, but on line 266 map `P` to `false` not `nil` and it won't show up.

    First, install doom emacs. Second, create a shell alias for "magit" that is bound to "emacs -nw -f magit". Then just run magit like any other TUI app - the fact that it's in emacs …

    I've always just used `:e ` - never saw the appeal of oil.nvim for that use case. But for other kinds of modifications it's nifty.

    I used Yabai for years until I found aerospace, and switched over instantly. Would highly recommend anyone to try it :)

    Huge fan of shelly. I wrote a little sinatra web-server that can just show the current state, and toggle the state, of a bunch of lights around my yard. I really appreciate that al…

    Missed it so much in vim I started maintaining the neovim clone.

    Its just a Scheme dialect. A bit odd, but not crazy.

    Oh, that meme is old, sorry to say. Here's a nice blog post about ruby outperforming C with the new JIT compiler. Fun times :) https://railsatscale.com/2023-08-29-ruby-outperforms-…

    I've been using flowX for many years, first on android and now on ios. I've found it to be incredibly customisable, and particularly good at visualising incoming weather. Gladly pa…

    I'm a huge fan of https://www.shelly.com/ - they have a built in webserver and can be controlled via POST requests. No cloud needed.

    One thing to check out: ruby-lsp gets around this by using a custom gemfile, which enhances the project with the lsp's dependencies. That means you can use the gem, with bundler, w…

    After watching your (very enjoyable) talk in the other thread, schacon, one thing struck me - there _is_ a way to work on multiple branches at the same time: worktrees. What's the …

    I'm right there with you - my yet-unrealized dream is sublime's front-end with neovim powering it.

    I used to do professional rigging - if there's a human on the equipment, we'd commonly use a safety factor of 8 when choosing ropes/span sets. So... 800% more than calculated value…
