Engineer working on Amp here. I'm very surprised that it took them this long to crack down on it. It's been against the terms of service from the start. When I asked them back in M…

Hey! Thorsten Ball here. Thanks for the shout-out. I was quite confused when someone sent me this article: same "Emperor has no clothes", same "it's only x hundred lines", implemen…

Thank you! There's a long way to go still, but it makes me happy to hear when what we think about this, well, new way to program seems to resonate with others.

Working on it!

That is about the idea of rewriting existing tooling in Rust to get rid of node_modules folders, not about prompting users whether to download a language server or not.

One mini-feature I really like: authors highlighting their own favorite or popular articles. I think I saw it first on Julia Evans' blog ( https://jvns.ca/categories/favorite/ ). I…

That's right, someone linked me to this article: https://www.macobserver.com/analysis/apple-dry-run-apfs-prio... Pretty impressive.

> I'm shocked by how many developers check in code that passes the tests but they have not actually tested to make sure it works. That's actually one of the other topics I wanted t…

Hey, author here. Yeah, I worked at Sourcegraph and I do think we built some high-quality stuff and we did write tests. I also think a lot of them were necessary. But, like I wrote…

Rust's debug-print {:?} quotes the path here.

Hey! I'm the mentioned Thorsten. Linux is actively being developed. Here's a PR from 2 days ago that shows file-opening in Linux starting to work: https://github.com/zed-industries…

I think that is on the roadmap too, but possibly further down.

I only joined Zed, the company, a week ago, so take this with a grain of salt, but: I've never really used real-time sharing (tried VS Code's Live mode and other apps) for longer t…

Hey! Engineer at Zed here. Linux port is on our roadmap. Hopefully we'll get it done this year!

You know what, you're right. And it's actually something that's been bugging me for a while, I just never got around to fixing it. I'm going to update my config now. Thanks! (Autho…

> I've seen a lot of programmers fall into what I'd call the bureaucracy trap. Bureaucracy is often very attractive to a certain type of engineering because it's essentially progra…

Author here. Yeah, that’s fair, it is over-generalizing (and I even admit to that in the post). I do think there might be some value (insight?) into trying to generalise things som…
