I think you're on to something here. For a multi-product dev company, they could (if domain still available) brand as 'without.ai' or 'no.ai' or 'sans.ai' and do 'taxware.sans.ai',…

Well for git stuff or any CLI stuff, I just key-chord into the integrated terminal (or alt-tab into my terminal emulator, depending on task) and do the git commands, having the who…

Aficionados of modal editing often insinuate that one would require mouse use in non-modal editing. Yet I have always fully keyboard-operated my non-modal editors, whether VSCode i…

> VS Code with the Vim extension is largely mouseless It's also easily mouseless without any Vim or like extension. I never mouse in it, having given intuitive-to-me keychords to a…

> Using electron or GTK or whatever You say that like they're in the same category, but one is an embedded Chromium and the other a native windowing toolkit.

> as practically all so called c++ libs also export a c header as they know how important it is In the gamedev space, I'd say too few of them do.

> 90s/early 2000s breakbeat songs Can recommend such a mix, too. Gather select works of The Chemical Brothers, The Dust Brothers, Bassbin Twins, Crystal Method, DJ Krush, Dub Pisto…

AngelScript. Matured & maintained since 2003, is fully typed and with C syntax. https://www.angelcode.com/angelscript/

Since I found with searchable app menus / start menus that I don't ever navigate through menus but just start typing, I ditched the menu entirely and have KRunner bound to the Win …

Gives "Non-Image content-type returned", I guess GH doesn't like hot-linking its hosted user assets. Might want to link the `.md` that embeds it instead, if any

> transparent switching between skins (about as easy as changing the tab sizes) One of my pet "not today but some day" project ideas. In my case, I wanted to give Python/Gdscript s…

Goood stuff! One of my long-standing "would make if I had the time and perseverance" themes has been a terminal text editor that's hugely VSCode-like + compatible, so always glad t…

For flow-compatible electronica, let me add specifically: https://netlabels.org/electronic-music/ https://files.scene.org/browse/music/ https://netlabelarchive.org/ https://freemus…

Also very neat is DearImgui via either https://github.com/AllenDang/giu (Go-convenient wrapper) or https://github.com/AllenDang/cimgui-go/ (raw bindings)

That is both .NET stuff, Wails is one of various Go options.

"Locally-runnable, CPU-not-just-GPU-permitting LLMs for chatbot dev" probably means Llama, right? Or are there other contenders on par and worth (co)considering? I'm late to the ga…

Yeah that seems like an area for improvement in Godot's GUI system indeed. For my stuff, I never had a need for theming, but good to keep in mind if one ever wanted to do an app sh…

Release build of such a Godot-built tool is between 60-70 MB. Other than that, it seems fast enough & RAM-friendly enough for the usual simple use-cases. Game engines tend toward s…

Godot is neat for personal tool-making where I just need a small gui with basic controls and can express the whole proggie in just GdScript (API has sufficient OS interactions for …

Well, lobste.rs has tags and then you can block whatever tags you choose to block, and for HN you'd need a reader that classifies / auto-tags posts and allows blocking out tags, wh…
