Sounds like GPT 3.5 to me, version 4 is much better at code. Also, as a general rule you shouldn't trust its code output, but it's a good way to brainstorm or get started on coding something. It can give useful tips or replace sta

My approach to coding is to tackle these types of problems once they occur, instead of thinking "What about...", "What if...". I don't have these problems you're describing, so the script works great.

What do you think is the risk here? I don’t see a code path to remove my home dir in the script EDIT: Unless I have a dir called "*" in my dotfiles, but at that point I deserve to have my home dir removed :P ZSH also asks for conf

Although GNU stow is very interesting, I like this simple script because it has no external dependencies. Stow is not available on macos by default, for example.

You can set the source and target directories to whatever you'd like, this is just what I need for my own use. The automatic deletion is for directories, to prevent recursive symlinks. Of course, you can program your own however you wi

All you need is a symlink script that symlinks files in ~ to ~/path/to/your/dotfiles https://github.com/pprotas/dotfiles/blob/main/symlink.sh That's it.

Why are emulators illegal? I understand that they are associated with piracy because people play pirates games on them. But it’s like banning BitTorrent because it allows you to pirate, or Windows because you can play pirates games on it as

Just want to mention that you're not downvoted for liking Musk or providing an opinion that you consider contrary. You are being downvoted because your comment does not contribute to the conversation in a constructive manner.

Amazing, we have invented nominal typing in a structural typing system. Sometimes I wonder what kind of programs are written using all these complicated TS types. Anecdotally, we use very simple, basic types in our codebase. The need for tr

My advice 4 years into my engineering career is to work out, sleep a lot, eat good good, see your favorite musicians at festivals, read the Dune book in the sun at the beach and enjoy your free time with friends and family.

Chrome automatically opens up a tab with an ad for their new features after every automatic update. Isn’t that kind of the same thing?

If we take into account that the average person types less than 80 WPM (and that’s being generous) using a pecking technique and by looking at the keyboard, I can definitely understand how the average person would prefer writing over typing

No need to rely on your terminal to provide performance. LunarVim is very slow even though I use Alacritty, it was the main reason I stopped using it and switched to LazyVim.

While I love p10k and use it myself, note that p10k is just a theme, while ohmyzsh is a theme manager (that comes with default themes) + plugin manager + a collection of aliases + other QoL stuff.

Do yourself a favor and try to configure your shell without ohmyzsh first. You’d be surprised at how few plugins actually require it, and you save yourself from horrible performance.

Don't fall for the trap of note taking tools. At the end of the day, if you can write down your thoughts then it does the job. Spend less time on thinking about tools and more time on writing notes. At the same time, in my opinion you
