I have been using straight for a while now and I think it is great! The ability to lazy load everything by default does a lot to make Emacs snappier (or at the very least, faster to boot). Being able to pull packages directly from git (be i

Full page screenshots are actually supported by FF, Chrome and Safari (even on mobile). For some reason, the feature is always hidden in some absurd place https://www.idownloadblog.com/2021/04/08/capture-full-

You can get autocomplete for Java methods in Cider (Emacs) and probably Cursive (Intellij) afaik. Type checking in intro code can be a bit difficult, but REPL/live development really helps. You are going to catch mismatched type at fir

As much as I admire Processing for making it easy to draw pixels on the screen, something that seems to get more difficult every year, I do find it very difficult to use as a teaching tool. Going from Hello World to something more intricate

preview.app has been around since NextSTEP, which used display postscript for its windowing engine. Having a first-class pdf reader falls out pretty naturally.

I cannot say enough good things about chwm (or yabai[0], as he now calls it), by far the best window management tool I've used on macOS. Unlike most other tools, it is instantaneous and requires no mental effort. In conjunction with sk

I think Reason 2 really hits the nail on the head. Very few multiplayer get away with properly rewarding player skill. The new Quake seems to have the same problem. Most of the population consists of veterans, which makes it so that new pla

One of the things that make magic so great is precisely that one does not have to remember all the shortcuts. The author has written and released his own tool for popups and tooltips[0]. The keys are also among the more sane binds you find
