They pair really nicely with a column-oriented WM like Niri or PaperWM!

I really appreciate this project. Who knows if it will become a viable standard, but I like that there's at least an effort to work on something open and interoperable with a bit m…

I don't use Blender, so my admiration is from a distance but: Wow - what an impressive project. At least if I understand it correctly, this is a real pro-level piece of free and op…

What Apple laptop has “jet-engine fan noise”?

Is it really? A 9B model is equivalent? Honest question, as I haven't spent that much time with the 9B variant or Flash 2.5. But that seems like a pretty bold claim for such a smal…

Same, but the front is important for airflow in the Framework Desktop, so I don't think covering it with an e-ink screen would work. But maybe with some space between the screen an…

Every time I see the word “admits” in a headline, I skip the article.

If this appeals to you, also check out the Plotter Art subreddit https://www.reddit.com/r/PlotterArt/

In my opinion - not yet. The local models are getting better all the time, but still aren't quite reliable enough. Also, hardware prices are absurd right now. Once the hardware mar…

I was disappointed when this was not the command line prompt library

If you use Omarchy, the 3.8 update includes dynamic theming for Zed. It's very cool: https://github.com/APS6/omazed

Are you using that cmarker commonmark Typst package? Is it good? https://typst.app/universe/package/cmarker/

I would think you could use this model inside of Presidio, right?

No, they don't, but I'd still take OmniWM over not having it.

If that’s all it took to deter you that thoroughly, I think you can confidently say that you are outside of the target market. Which is 100% OK!

If you are on a Mac, check out OmniWM, which has a Niri layout, in addition to one that's more like Hyprland. It has made my work on MacOS much more pleasant. https://github.com/Ba…

Are they zom-bees?

Having been ruined by Linux options like Hyperland and Niri, I’m digging my early foray into OmniWM - https://github.com/BarutSRB/OmniWM

I am disappointed at the amount of negativity here. HN generally loves an experimental domain-specific language, no matter how janky. To be clear, I don't know if this is janky, bu…

RIP Popular Mechanics

I'm not a coder, I'm a medical doctor. I see some interesting parallels in how medical students sort themselves into specialties by cognitive style to this new rift in programming …

I tried it out a bit. Like SQLite, it can be used as an embedded db in a flat file. It will be interesting to see what Apple does with it. Their blog had some great examples using …

Compared to what?

Most of this hype appears to be coming from grifters who aren't actually connected to the project. So, it's there, but not the fault of the people doing the work. This has come up …

Gas Town has a very clear "mad scientist/performance art" sort of thing going on, and I love that. It's taking a premise way past its logical conclusion, and I think that's fun to …
