portability - vim works everywhere and my config is just a `git pull` away. VS code doesn't let you sync configs unless you sign in with github/microsoft account. Wack! flexibility - vim integrates very nicely with my terminal-hea

MacOS appears to make this intentionally difficult. I've tried with stuff like xQuartz but its finicky and Apple is extremely hostile to non-apple interoperability.

Is there a way to do your testing without a gui? I have no idea what your testing setup requires, but is there some technical reason why tests are not done automatically in your ci/cd pipeline? If it must be done manually, can you just

Kitty is awesome I’ve been using it lately myself. I can’t get myself fully off tmux into the native kitty panes because tmux is dank for multiplexed remote sessions and actually works everywhere. I still use kitty windows or just detach fr

I’ll have to check out some of those tools! Never heard of nebula or lunarvim. I just have nvim and some minimal plugins and vanilla tmux. I find that lots of plugin functionality can be done with config changes.

Hell yeah! I wish more folks would appreciate how flexible and feature rich the old school cli tools can be. What’s your VMM setup? I just edit right on the remote machine. Lately I’ve been playing around with lxd/lxc for persistent co

I don’t work in windows but fwiw my clipboard and config files work flawlessly in mac and Linux. Last time I used WSL everything was working fine but it’s been a few years.

Idk man it’s all preference. I’m way more comfortable in the terminal than in a gui editor. The flexibility I get from my shell, nvim and tmux is unmatched by any gui solution I’ve tried. If you don’t like the terminal that’s fine you can a

Don’t overthink it! Keep it traditional baby all you need is vim and tmux. The initial learning curve for these sorts of cli apps is a bit steep, but it’s a lifelong skill and easily learnable for any competent developer. Writing code is 10

Prop 13 is intended to protect homeowners from being gentrified out of their residence. Even if I think it's backfired, I understand the motivation. I would be livid if I was a lifelong CA resident and suddenly could no longer afford m

If most voters are homeowners then what exactly do we expect? Of course they're going to push for lower property taxes...maybe homeowners feel that their money already gets taxed 5+ times before they can spend it on their literal shelt

Speculation isn’t great, but let’s not pretend this is some elaborate scheme orchestrated by all the homeowners. If it’s feasible and profitable to build new homes, then developers will do so. Everyone loves the simple solution of “build mo

“Printing money” is an easy way to describe the result of the federal reserve purchasing debt. When QE occurs, the fed buys bonds and MBS. They credit the seller’s account, and the securities get added to the Feds balance sheet. They don’t

Thanks for the response! I gotta disagree with you though on cost. You can get a beefy refurbished dual Xeon blade for a couple hundred bucks. Rack space where I live is like $50/month for 1U and gets much cheaper/machine as you s

I feel you. It’s horrible if you’ve grown up somewhere and suddenly can’t afford a home in the same spot. But life’s unfair. Houses get sold to the highest bidder. This is what happens when everyone wants to live in the same areas. I’m not
