I described my experience using Claude Code Web to vibe-code a language interpreter here [0], with a link to the closed PRs [1]. As it turns out, you don't really need to "save the state"; with decent-enough code and document

I've also had success with this. One of my hobby horses is a second, independent implementation of the Perchance language for creating random generators [0]. Perchance is genuinely very cool, but it was never designed to be embedded in

What's more likely: every single Rust programmer is wrong, or you're just not seeing the forest for the trees?

This is not really a serious issue for any practicing Rust programmers.

I'm sure we all assumed that they came from the same codebase, but I don't think any of us were expecting the features to be shipped to both platforms and disabled at runtime as required. I expected a common codebase with the iPad

For me, it's always been the lack of a power-user-friendly windowing/workspace scheme. You can approximate a tiling window manager using yabai or similar solutions, but it's just not the same thing. I love using the MacBooks,

Have you tried nushell?

This has an aggressive amount of designed-by-AI. Can you turn it down a bit? It's quite visually distracting right now.

Niri has an overview view to help with this. You can see all of your workspaces and their strips, and move applications from strip to strip.

You can also set window rules in Niri :-)

I'm not a Niri stan by any means - I only switched to it the other week, and was using sway/i3 before then - but I suspect that most alternatives have answers to these, too. > Especially how it handles workspaces on multiple mo

I haven't used it in some years, but I found AwesomeWM to work well for me for the usecase of configurable predefined window layouts. Is there anything in particular about Xmonad that keeps you coming back?

I'm still a Niri newbie, but I'm enjoying the scrolling as a ways to have "subworkspaces": when I'm working on a full-stack project, for example, I can scroll between the backend and the frontend, while arranging my

Configuring your WM in Haskell seems fun, but I suspect "fun" is the primary motivator, not any kind of practical reason. Type-checking keybindings is cute, but you're going to discover that the keybinding doesn't work w

I'd be willing to take the L on the hardware in order to be able to actually run the software I care about. (I own a Vision Pro and barely use it because the pejorative description of "an iPad on your face" is more accurate t

An interesting post about a sympathetic problem, but one that could have benefitted from not being written in LinkedIn house style.

The post is about the conceptual underpinnings of the system, not about the specifics of the code. It would be like judging the Linux kernel by the UI running atop it: it's largely immaterial to the discussion at hand.

The choice of a pure-monolithic kernel is also interesting; I can buy that it's more secure, but having to recompile the kernel every time you change hardware sounds like it would be pretty tedious. Early days, though, so we'll se

That's great, but you should still disclose that you're the one providing the "correct solution."
