You are right, I don't have any baseline. I just try it and see if it works. One good thing about the software field is that I can compile and run the code for verification. It may not be optimal, but at least it's testable.

Me too. I’ve been playing with various coding agents such as Cursor, Claude Code, and GitHub Copilot for some time, and I would say that their most useful feature is educating me. For example, they can teach me a library I haven’t used befo

Yes, I agree with you. But unfortunately working is the best cooperation pattern we've found so far, the society keeps running smoothly if everyone is working. Maybe AI will change it, maybe not, let's wait and see.

I think the biggest advantage of Org Mode over Markdown is that Org Mode can attach properties to headers. This seems trivial, but it's not. Because of that, you can: 1. Give a header an id and jump to it from anywhere. 2. Attach sched

Thanks. Actually I've tried both the built-in pixel-scroll-mode and good-scroll. None of them gives me the experience of a modern text-editor (e.g. VSCode).

My experience with Emacs is bittersweet. On the one hand, org-mode in Emacs is extremely powerful. I use it to schedule TODO items, organize my thoughts, write notes, publish websites, and lots of other things. On the other hand, Emacs driv

I feel the same. VSCode is better than Emacs in lots of aspects, but I cannot leave Emacs for now because Org Mode in Emacs is just too powerful. Although VSCode also has an Org Mode addon, it only has some basic functionalities and hasn&#x

I’m not a native English speaker, either. The biggest challenge for me is to write English sentences without grammatical errors. To do that, you need feedbacks that tell you whether your sentences are correct, that’s especially hard when yo

Me too, algorithms are extremely hard for me at first. It took me a really long time to solve easy problems, and I could only solve 1~2 middle-level problems in one day. But finally, I managed to handle them by getting to know some effectiv

I tried Pomodoro before, it did boost my productivity during the work time. But the problem is, I started to hate my work more and more because I knew that I had to be totally focused around 20 minutes or more on my work during that time, a

For me, the most satisfying markdown editor is Typora( https://typora.io/ ), which doesn't need a separate preview pane to show the rendered contents. But I haven't tried the Math support of it yet. After using Typo
