Kakoune has a client/server mode so that the client instances can talk to the same server. This way unsaved changes to a buffer are visible across instances + all the registers etc are shared. Helix doesn't have that functionality

Super cool to see another competitor in this space. There's no support for tabs, I really hope it's coming and they implement them in the same way vim does. So far the buffer/window implementation matches vim (as far as I can

Like the sibling comment, I feel like we are talking about different things. You're talking about right and wrong paths and careers. I'm talking about choices like kids, prioritizing salary over flexibility etc. I am not arguing t

I mean you can say the luck argument about literally everything. It's not a reason to dismiss making choices. Not having kids/pets is a huge choice to make to have flexibility. If you don't have dependents you don't need

Do you have kids or otherwise responsible for anyone? If not, one or two hours of chores per day is insane. Take a step back and examine if the chores you are doing are actually worth doing. Obviously if you have kids or are a carer that pr

I run wireguard on an OVH box that I've had for years as my VPN. I just checked and I still get Google ads. So it's not even automatic on the largest ads network out there. Personally, I'd love it if using a VPN meant that ad

I also dislike that style, I appreciate it looks nicer, but I definitely find it harder to process/read. That example isn't that bad, because all the variable names are pretty close to the same length. But once you start mixing re

Feels like the disruption could be identifying a subset of the 1000s of features used that a cover a large enough part of the market and solely focusing on that. Instead of 1000s of features, have 40 good features. Limits how many customers

Does the steam deck support ray tracing now? It didn't back when it was released (out of the box), and also required messing around with stuff to enable it. If you don't care about ray tracing, Linux gaming on Steam is pretty much

I've been in South Africa for the last month, which has had an energy crisis since around 2007 and somehow they manage to keep mobile networks up during load shedding. There are 2:30 hour (sometimes 4:30 hour) blackouts daily and yet e

My comment isn't a criticism! I was just confused what you were doing, but now I get it. You run webpack for people and then host the bundle for them. If the title was "Webpack as a service", I would've immediately got i

I guess my point that it started out as a "publisher-owned distribution platform for 3 games" that many CS gamers at the time hated. Obviously I can't speak for the entire gaming community, but I remember sitting in some fair

It's interesting how the sentiment towards Steam changed since it's inception. I remember back when we had to use WON to play counter strike, then it got shut down and we had to move to Steam. But steam forced you to upgrade to CS
