Oh yeah for sure. Not going to adopt new architecture yet. It’s a little rough of a transition but once we get through I do believe it will be a game changer for react native. Until reanimated v4 is dialed in I’m staying away. Have you trie

Could you share which issues you had with the upgrade to 53? I just recently migrated my employer’s app to sdk 52. We are still on legacy arch for now. I’d love to know more about what I’m in for when it comes to upgrading to 53.

Then why do they often produce garbage for me and get stuck in a state where it either “fixes” type errors by casting to any or just straight up getting stuck? They suck at react-native man god damn.

What tech stack are you using? It matters a lot what tech you are using when it comes to how effective the LLMs are.

I’ve tried using agents. LLMs just can’t reliably accomplish the tasks that I have to do. They just get shit wrong and hallucinate a ton. If I don’t break the task down into tiny chunks then they go off the rails.

If you get a 30x gain then you're a 0.05x developer. a 50x gain would literally mean you could get a year's worth of work done in a week. Preposterous.

30x productivity gain? gtfo of here. Most things I try to use it for, it has so many problems with its output that at most I get a 50% productivity gain after fixing everything. I'm already super efficient at editing text with neovim s

I love Neogit. I recently started using Jujutsu to interact with git repos instead of using git though, and wow it is so much better than git that I’ll put up with not having fancy tooling.

Can you copy a line and paste it in a different directory to copy a file? Oil.nvim provides an incredible experience for managing files. It'll even use the LSP to fix imports if you move files from place to place.

The file watch mode is great. Also nvim-aider is a great plugin which makes it really easy to manage context from within nvim and add diagnostics to chat

I think that using something like Claude on Amazon Bedrock makes more sense than directly using Anthropic. Maybe I'm naive but I trust AWS more than Anthropic, OpenAI, or Google to not misuse data.

Yes Emacs is still a better platform for building applications on for sure. Emacs lisp is a better language than Lua although harder to learn. I used Emacs with evil mode for years until switching to neovim last year. It was really great.

Now with neovim I feel like the plugin ecosystem is catching up to Emacs. Lua has unlocked the potential. Typescript dev ex in neovim is light years ahead of what I achieved in Emacs. Neovim’s lsp integration is better than Emacs imo. Blink

The thing is though that it takes 1 person a few weeks and then could save many more people time. Also if you are already familiar with Android this app should take hours not weeks.

Best solution for sleep I think is a combination of earplugs and Shokz openrun bone conduction headphones. Bone conduction headphones work better when you have earplugs in than they do without them so it works amazing. My favorite earplugs

No, zero based indexing just is based on how arrays actually work. It has nothing to do with resources being scarce. You have an address for the beginning of the array and an offset. The first element has no offset so you use zero. Therefor
