Thanks for explaining the context. It makes sense in your case where using mouse is a hard constraint. My reaction is more towards people who optimise for productivity.

Keybooard and Mouse. Everytime. I have the same question. How much do you type in a day that moving the hand to the mouse is a productivity loss? I spend a lot of time staring (thinking, planning) than typing. So, moving my hand to the mous

By making “upstreaming” the core of OS contribution, we have also failed to build tooling around downstream synchronisation. There are dedicated browser forks (a very highly complex software) that are maintained by a few volunteers. So main

Man, these are the kinds of things that I am so happy to read. People who think and care deeply about what they do, take pragmatic decisions that appears right to them and explain why they do things the way they do. Very motivating. Literal

Wow. With all the beach, pier and flyby shots, as a non-American, I really thought it was all shot in Santa Barbara. Man. What editing can do.

Tried it. Works as advertised :) Amazing. I am on Doom Emacs, the keyboard shortcuts don't seem to work. Clicking works. I suspect Whichkey (Space) and Evil mode (n/p..etc.,) to be the culprits. I should probably assign some sort

Second this. Just add Starship.rs for prompt and offload tool chain version handling to mise. That covers about 100% of my needs. If your org doesn’t use mise, just add mise.toml to your global gitignore. Mise tries to be a single tool cove

In case of China, the extend to which the central government can set laws and policies far exceeds what’s possible in India. India’s powers are split into Federal, State and “Concurrent” lists. Health and education for example is a state an

If the author is reading - China is a single party nation state, India is a union of states. Dive into the metrics of states, you will find everything from Sub-sharan Africa levels of HDI to the ones that compete with European countries.

Thank you. This is a great tip.

Ha! That’s a valid point. My trackpad is crap on Linux.

I have used an IdeaPad S540 for about 5-6 years. Upgrading RAM, WiFi modules along the way. Was bummed when Apple’s Mac Pro died on me 11months with no warning. And went back to IdeaPad again (this is where I gave up on Thinkpad). So I woul

I would have bought one if they weren’t so pricey for the spec they ship. Similar specs on a IdeaPad goes I think something like 40% cheaper or more. I understand people loving heavy duty ones. But the ones I have run into in the past had p

How much does a SOUL.md cost?

by tecoholic 5mo ago
Yes. Just this fact is going to make a lot of people try it out.

Very cool idea. I had something vaguely similar in my mind. It's nice one see go ahead and implement it. All the Claude code animations and not knowing what's happening, how long it will take and what will come out is really frust

I agree. The sentiment applies to most analytics. People who setup analytics are not the same as end users.

I was looking into this just yesterday. So the Loki + … comparison is a bit off in the Open Source space. The main ones are Signoz and ClickStack in this space. Both using ClickHouse as the database. Heavy compared to something like Loki, b

I have written zero skills, so not sure how normal it is. I counted the words in couple of them and they seem to be around 2k range. So 5 skills would be around 10K. Even at a small LLM context of 128k, that's still around 10%. And for

Seriously though, why is it a model "card", safety "card"? I had to lookup to learn that it comes from HuggingFace's vague definition of "README" in the model's repo. This is such a specific thing tha

Kudos. I set on this exact journey a couple of days back and Pi is what I started reading for inspiration as well. I really can't stand the text boxes and the animations of the mainstream harnesses.

One of those articles that has an interesting anecdote but written with a mundane lulz mentality. If it’s for teenagers, by teenagers. All is well.

If you have never used an LSP and don’t need it, you can just turn the LSP off. I do it from the UI (thunderbolt icon on bottom bar I think) for some projects which don’t have LSP typing support. There should also be a setting to turn off p

This is one of those articles that I read and realise how different people and process are. I fully agree with this method. In fact, my surprise mostly stems from the necessity to write this article. So there are places where comments on PR

Check the lsp servers that run when you are editing TS file. I noticed something like 5-6 when editing a TSX file. There was even tailwind thrown in for a good measure (the project has no tailwind). All that buttery smooth 120fps wasted on
