I am not sure if JS has something similar, but this often helps by a lot

It does, the some/every array methods would achieve the same results. I use them quite often myself!

Lol my workplace ships Angular in debug mode. Don’t worry though, the whole page kills itself if a dubious third-party library detects the console is open. Very secure and not brittle at all! Please send help

Yup, I first heard of it in neovim but the way helix integrates it as a first class citizen is so damn cool

My best guess is it’s a play at the usual “all you do in python is import libraries without knowing how they work lololol” dig but yeah, I don’t find it particularly funny either

It doesn’t, you can install it on mostly any Linux distro

Or better yet, an option to point it to my own self-hosted OpenAI API compatible endpoint on top of one to disable it entirely.

Edit: On second thought, the copilot integration probably goes deeper than that but still

I’m assuming that’s why they added “relatively”

Ah, interesting! I’d have guessed about a dozen annoyances before that one even came to mind haha. Hope you have a good time around these parts at any rate :)

Also, I’d never taken a serious look at the German layout but going by the truly wild differences there you may as well stick with what you have IMO, I think it’s what I’d do at least.

A lot of us don’t live in the US to begin with, so I assume a significant portion of us just use whatever the local standard is. That’s where I’ve been at so far, the Brazilian layout is a QWERTY variant so not that different. It does make some things more awkward, but you get used to what you have to work with.

Brackets and curly braces are less convenient off the top of my head, backticks too. Vim is a tad less ergonomic without some extra fiddling, for instance. In fact, I’ve been considering getting a US keyboard for coding to make that kinda thing less of an issue, US international makes accents and whatnot accessible enough that I think I could make it work.

I’ll second Rust, it’s so fresh and versatile! You can go from super low level stuff all the way to things like web frameworks with WebAssembly and whatnot.

The memory model is definitely a unique beast but I’ve found it gave me some insight on how it all actually works behind the scenes and I appreciate the strictly enforced correctness too.

I can only hope so

Is using something like typst to generate your exams an option? There’d be a learning curve but it’s full of utilities to format and arrange content and whatnot so it feels like it could be a cleaner way of achieving what you want. Plus, it’d make iterating easier and give you more consistency over time going forward

I’ve always struggled with actually retaining knowledge on how to use the myriad tools you’d usually need to extract/parse data (awk, sed and friends) and this was a game changer. I don’t quite daily drive it just yet but when I do need it, it’s vastly more ergonomic.

I don’t have much experience with similar tools but that looks quite interesting, thanks for sharing!

As someone who clicked partly to check if it was Rust-based, I think that’s a 100% fair call-out lol

Well, here’s hoping you land on your feet!

Ah, can’t say I expected to come across the person behind komorebi today! Really appreciate your work, such a cool project you wouldn’t expect on Windows of all places.

Anyway, sounds like an interesting watch, thanks for sharing!

Pomni is from The Amazing Digital Circus, a recently released animated pilot where human characters are endlessly tortured by an AI entity in a zany VR world. My best guess is it’s correlating said eternal suffering with using Java/Maven or writing tests? Not sure lol

Fascinating idea, that was an interesting read! Don’t think I’d ever seen something like that done before.

Yup, I work as a typescript + PHP developer right now for reasons beyond my control so I’m painfully familiar with that kind of error 😅
