   Oh wow. There's another person who uses TextMate! Hi. I'm not alone ;-) I've been in TextMate about as long. And I love the product to death. I just want it to stop eating itself. And I really, really wish Allan would tr

   Noted. And you are right about not giving examples. That was a mistake and bear in mind I wrote a rant which I didn't expect to get exposure. A buddy thought it was good enough to submit and that's how I'm here. No is mor

   Interesting. That actually doesn't surprise me. I'm pretty new to the ecosystem and still at the fanboy stage. Learning anything new is hard. Learning something new that is KNOWN TO BE HARD is likely going to be harder. And s

   I'd love to think that I'm smart enough to get something onto Hacker News deliberately -- I'm not. I've gotten one other article I wrote hear in the past decade plus I've been a daily reader. I'm just someone

   Hi. The author is viewing the comment (finally). What I can tell you is just what I have observed -- compiled artifacts written in Rust, at least initially, seem to be higher quality than things written in C. Rust is a pretty high bar to

    All - Thank you for your feedback; I'm still digesting. I just got access to the Zed editor and it looks awesome. Here are just the comparison tables: https://gist.github.com/fuzzygroup/8a5ad188e368df0796180d150.

    For what its worth, I saw this comment and bought Moca hardware (ScreenBeam Bonded). Ten minutes of setup later after an Amazon delivery and I'm happier with Netflix / Prime / Hulu / etc. There is literally no comparis

    The last job search I went thru really, really sucked. The main way I made it through was side projects. One of those side projects ended up being https://jobhound.io/ which is a CMS for your job applications so you know

    You aren't wrong at all. Stores regularly re-organize and what it says to customers is "your knowledge is worth nothing". The disregard of customer knowledge is an absolute anti pattern.

    https://fuzzyblog.io/blog/ I don't know if it matters to recruiters but it matters a ton to me . I find that a personal web site gives a place for me to document what I know and that improves my work.

    I'd love to know how you find these great deals on Newegg. I've heard of them in the past and their search engine seems to make hiding them a thing. Thoughts and thanks in advance.

    There is not nearly enough information in the question to get any kind of valid answer. I'd suggest adding: * How long have you been at this? * What have you got invested personally? * Any third party investment? * Are you learning
