   For me it's Tree-sitter support. It builds a syntax tree for your files incredibly fast and allows the editor to use it for various things, including much better syntax highlighting. https://tree-sitter.github.io/tree-s

   I have the same setup and TV works well but changing channel takes a few seconds. Not been able to work out why. I have an Nvidia card which is more than capable of transcoding. How long does yours take to switch?

   I learnt to program with Delphi and it still holds a special place in my heart, despite not having used it for more than twenty years.

   Ah,I didn't realise it was cloud based! I appear to be very out of touch.

   Would FileMaker have worked? It sounds like it's a good fit.

   I do, via luasnip. I type some things a lot and it's just second nature for me now. The snippets I use most don't do a lot, but save me from hitting enter and typing 'end', or from closing a HTML tag. I have some configu

   I'd be really surprised if there's much difference at all in speed/responsiveness if you run them without plugins.

    I like CitizenM, the only negative is a lack of kettle in the room.

    I wish supermarkets would put them on the cake aisle instead and keep the biscuit aisle pure.

    Funnily enough I bought a Sub Mini last year and had to borrow an iPad to add it to my system because it failed on Android, even when being walked through the process by someone from Sonos support.

    Fingers crossed we get RSTP support soon. It's only been out 25 years.

    Not really. All the non tech folks I know just the free version of Google office suite for the handful of letters and spreadsheets they create a year.

    Rails gives you the tools to do much of this already. For example, this: html_slice :stuff do h1 'hello world' # @html_slice[:default] << '<h1>hello world</h1>' text # @html_slice

    Really happy to see this, such a mammoth effort by the team and everyone else involved. I switched over from zsh about four years ago and my config went from several hundred lines to a handful with just one plugin (fzf.fish). It just works

    Cursor trail? I've been using Kitty since just about the beginning and didn't know it did that! Edit. Oh I see it's a really recent addition. I'll definitely be taking that for a spin.

    Funnily enough I write most of my view components without a template these days, unless there's a load of markup. I keep meaning to take a look at Phlex.

    The most annoying bit is that it can't toggle the Google 'now' status thing, sometimes it's totally unreadable even with the built in wallpapers.

    No, unfortunately. It was terrible by comparison. There's no wonder GitHub drew people in. It's interface and ease of building a community around a repo made of so much more accessible than anything else around at the time.

    No, I just think every last part of ripgrep has had the shit optimised out of it. Plus it's written in rust and as we know, it's blazingly fast.
