This a session search tool, and I think calling it a memory tool is confusing. > Secrets: The ctx README mentions saving the text as is and warns about the need to review the outpu…

It's not easy, that's why they all suck.

No one mentioned vi, I like neovim just fine, and I'm using pi daily. Nice try though. My only point is that if you want to talk about rewriting everything yourself, NIH, churn, wh…

The new thing where everyone just vibe codes their own versions of everything is not at all like personalizing Emacs. Specifically the idea that people generally just ignore existi…

Terrible analogy. Emacs has always had comparably fewer major options for packages compared to other tools, there is often an obvious option based on your needs, and it has never b…

What's just as crazy is people defending ollama.

You can take modal editing anywhere, but that doesn't mean you should.

There are many better sandboxing options than docker (in terms of security and/or ease of use), and it sounded like you weren't doing sandboxing.

Is this satire? I can never tell anymore.

Functionally you can focus any workspace on any monitor, and ids do not change when doing that. You can set things up both ways, but it's actually easier to just have a key focus w…

Hyprland works with nvidia just fine with minimal coniguration, just as well as any other wayland compositor I've tried, and I have a very old card. Having out of date packages is …

There is also scroll (sway fork) and plugins for hyprland. Scrolling experience was not actually better in niri vs. others in my experience just because it was built around it. I t…

Workspaces are not bound to displays in hyprland. This is one major reason I'm using hyprland over niri, where it's not really possible to work around that issue.

There's also focusworkspaceoncurrentmonitor, and anything more complicated can be scripted trivially to be on one keybind.

I'd be happy if they banned all devices

Keyboard mapping is fine on macOS (though most of those posts seem related to software or functionality I would never use). Keyboard-only experience is a lot more than keyboard map…

> No way, that's an almost non-existing class of apps. Which "keyboard-friendly software" supports the differentiation between tap and hold? Hold delays? Simultaneous keypresses? A…

Kanata supports early tap-hold dispatch based on key overlap, which is all I need. There's an open issue for more advanced conditions: https://github.com/jtroo/kanata/issues/128 Th…

I never looked at karabiner's full functionality, but kanata is the closest thing to a linux version of QMK. It can kind of be used for hotkeys, but that's really not its purpose. …

Delays are a terrible solution. Looking at key overlap percentage, for example, works much better. There are a lot of other ways to make dual-use/tap-hold functionality more reliab…

I've tried about ten billion different tools on linux and can confirm that kanata is better than everything else mentioned in this thread and a lot more. It's not the right tool fo…

I've used both. Mu4e is a lot simpler for email. I plan to eventually switch to Gnus for everything since it handles so much more than just mail (feed reader, hacker news, reddit, …

Emacs is not multithreaded, but it has supported async/cooperative threads for a very long time (at least since before I started using it almost a decade ago). Modern packages are …

> how many actions it takes to achieve something This is not really objective because you also have to take into consideration how intuitive/simple the UX is. Given 100 related act…
