    I’m doing the same - and also for the fact that I can finally turn off the lock screen’s swipe for camera that I seem to activate too often when my phone’s in my pocket

    Caps Lock as Esc (tap) and also Ctrl (hold) is the true way

    Many congrats on the release! I’m looking forward to simplifying my config and perhaps even dropping a plugin or two with 0.11.

    Sad to see them using Go and not Anders’s own language (Turbo Pascal 7) for this

    I wouldn’t call F# a systems programming language, but it’s definitely on my list of things to properly try out at some point

    I’m currently 1 behind and the upgrade nagging is ramping up

    My current plan is to basically never move on from macOS 14 and perhaps move away from macOS entirely when the time arrives that I’d be forced to upgrade (new hardware needed, etc)…

    The main reason to I switched from macOS Terminal is it lacks true colour support (Ghostty far from the only alternative that offers this, but it's quite similar to Terminal.app in…

    Yeah you can really do a lot with them if you get creative. I'm primarily using Neovim for most of my editing but am keeping a close eye on Helix as there's a lot to love about it.…

    Not so much 'Clarify meaning of "superset of Python"' as 'Remove references to "superset of Python"'

    I guess if folks write JS with the idea that optimisations are needed in mind, then the chances of premature optimisations may go up along with those of the required ones

    It’s a nice idea; although it should be noted that Helix currently has no folding support so sadly it perhaps doesn’t belong in the list.

    Yeah, I assumed it couldn’t be that, but it did read like that. “Copilots” is not the right term. It doesn’t match the title of the article I’m seeing.

    Most things are automated; right now one of my main recurring tasks is to check in on the upstream repositories of my forks that add some minor customisations to Neovim plugins whe…

    Not seeing it in Safari on iOS at least (although I may have missed it amongst the thousands upon thousands of adverts… I really should look into alternatives again)

    I'd say selection of tools should be considered an important facet of programming. But I agree that it needs to be done with a plan in mind and it's not the kind of thing you want …
