Right, input latency is what matters for me. I'm not seeing whether they've measured that in the docs/on Github.

To be honest I've never had issues like you're describing and I've been using Linux nearly exclusively as a desktop OS since the 2010s. The main deficiency is that it doesn't have eg a good Photoshop alternative, but wha

Yes I'm waiting for a nixos package. I have used it a bit through the Docker image and it's super cool. I can see it succeeding emacs. Seems like it's even more hackable than the latter, since it's all written in Common

Yeah, that was mostly my thinking. I like lisp!

I mentioned speed because they're writing their own instead of using Chez or Gambit or something (which have taken a while to get into 'performant' territory). Writing and maintaining a fast(!) Scheme is hard. Having spent ti

I wouldn't really count that as editor config. Every editor with treesitter support will have configs for treesitter, for instance: https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter/blob/mast...

I think a big missing piece with writing what you want in Rust and recompiling the editor to activate your changes is that you're not able to work with it _live_. That is, I can use the vim (or nvim or emacs) GUI/text processing&#

Yeah, I was on the nightly release (via nix) for a while. Rock solid.

Echoing the other replies here that idk what breakages this refers to. I switched since I liked lua better than vimscript (after writing a ton of vimscript). I don't use many plugins; the few I use haven't broken. Only encountered

Agreed. I've been using (n)vim for roughly 8 years now and only touch my config to put in bits of Lua I've hacked together to make my life slightly easier (~10 minutes every few months? I just do it as-needed). I use 5-6 plugins t

And, oddly, they chose to do their own Scheme implementation for it. Not that I'm against Scheme in particular, but a lot of other people justifiably seem to be. It doesn't have the speed or learn-it-in-10-minutes of Lua (nvim) or

I think you only miss (or at least I noticed this happened to me) a plugin system when you've engaged with the programmable side of your editor and then have to use one that isn't. I dont use/try to stay away from using (neo)

This does not seem like a standard way to conduct business to me by any stretch of the imagination, though I don't work in cybersecurity. Perhaps that community just has lower standards to which people and organizations are held. Would

I don't know, but it's been more reliable for me than /bin/bash. I think env is part of POSIX.

by _7tgr 2y ago
#!/bin/bash won't work on, say, nixos, and as you noted, many non-linux platforms. It's a few more characters to do something (more) portable! You're right that docker (or something like nix flakes, which are lighte

by _7tgr 2y ago
Prefer `#!/usr/bin/env bash` instead, since /bin/bash isn't a standardized location for bash (even across Linux distros). The former causes $PATH to be searched for bash.

This intuition denies the inherent human power: that we are not merely individuals, and can work together to accomplish greater things than any individual could. Software engineering has certainly _not_ stopped doing cool things-- exactly t

A couple thoughts to add to the conversation: I think I prefer visual mode when I'm doing a _really_ complicated edit and need to rely on visual feedback. I think having visual feedback as the default, though, (1) causes too much visua

According to this, if you search twice across Brave Search and a different search engine, Brave (the browser) will scrape the first page of results for the second query, and send it to Brave, in addition to which links you click on, on that

Blocking Chromium altogether isn't as big of a deal as it seems, either (unless you're a truly huge website). It's so easy to switch to Firefox these days. Probably takes a few minutes. For technical blogs with useful content

Google appears to be significantly more useful than GPT-4 here. [1] is the third result for me for the query "credit card jvm". [2] is the second result and gives a direct (and more importantly, actually correct) answer. That post

Probably because it's pretty easy to just use an older package from a different version of Nixpkgs (just use an override that defines the attribute for a package in your current Nixpkgs as the same package in an older Nixpkgs). It&#x27

Yeah, I agree-- I just happens that I personally resonate with most of these complaints (having tried both Kakoune and Helix a bit).

You can use marks in (n)vim for this! m<key> creates a mark. If <key> is a capital letter, you can jump to it across files. '<key> jumps to the line of the mark. `<key> jumps to the line + column of the mark. Al
