I thought hackernews sounded like an akward poll platform, so (just for fun) anyone who would like to vote can contribute here: https://www.rkursem.com/poll/view.php?id=e954c5a89f228a3e1

Reminds me of Tagsistant's FUSE-based tagged-filesystem API, which touts full compatibility with graphical file -managers and -sharing protocols as a major advantage.

I get that, I've practiced with my ergo board for like a year and still don't use it exclusively bc of one-handing stuff (though learning a new layout at the same time cert. didn't help). There's a layout based on multi-

This is awsome bc Github Gist links aren't Cool URL's and break on name changes even though repo's don't and Gist's have those hash ID's. I don't know that the Styles need be quite so on-the-nose, though

I built my own NAS (six drives in a Mini-ATX case) about three years ago. Creating a custom init system and immutable distro on it has been my primary hobby since, and I expect to be finished within another ~two years, by which point the dr

I found it hard to parse whether you were describing JBC tips specifically, so as an FYI for readers, this is (AFAIK) how both JBC and Pinecil tips work (while still at very different price points)

I get some of this (have an unused Pinephone), but I'm still thankful they tried (built up a stir) and, FWIW, the PineTime is OK and the Pinecil is the best soldering iron I've seen anyone use

Both points resonate with me, but I'd push back againt the idea that colored syntax highlighting is neccessary for either. I'm thinking of the Pygments 'bw' theme[1], which denotes strings in italics, and nano-emacs[2]

I concur that the style doesn't appeal to me, but I figure it's ne of those marketing things like over-the-top thumbnails that no one likes but statistically works. FWIW, the XFCE desktop lets you zoom in on your cursor with integ

One of the top comments in Zed's post claim this performs really nicely, but I imagine it doesn't run on GNU/Linux on it's own either; it'll probably come before Zed itself, and hopfully makes a splash so I can chec
