Sometimes I feel like I'm single-handedly holding up the USB extension cable industry. I seem to keep having new reasons to buy more of them.
@chris__martin I like indentation-only formatters, basically like the auto-indentation that lispers have used forever. It has less style standardization, but indentation is typically 99% of what I care about in formatting, and it makes for less churn. Of course, maybe it's just because I love lisp and have become used to the culture.
Inverse Random Test Auditing
I've developed a new random software testing technique that I believe will become a staple of my software testing going forward. It is both helpful for agentic AI (LLM) software development, where robust software verification is more important than ever, ...
Ooo, what if instead of interrupting the hold music to say "your call is very important", write a hold music song with lyrics about how the call is very important!
Good job, Slack, for having the preferences button hidden in what is consistently the 3rd or 4th dropdown that I check to find them.
I finally hacked on my treesitter integration for my composiphrase
#emacs package a bit more last night. It's still not great, and I have a lot of plans for it that I may or may not actually get to. But it's reached a threshold where the treesitter motions and selections are now actually useful.
@mcc Try the `xev` command, it opens a window and any input events directed to the window are printed to stdout. It's very useful. It is for X11 but works in Wayland via Xwayland.
Luke was born at about the same time the Galactic Empire was founded by Emperor Palpatine, according to the prequels, which seems very consistent with the vague hints of timeline from the original trilogy. Luke was maybe 20 in A New Hope. Yet in Andor a character played by a 40+ year-old, and even if the character is supposed to be younger must be at least 30, says that she was raised in an imperial kinder block. That timeline can't work. Get your facts straight, Disney.
@chris__martin oh, interesting. I guess I care less about having temporary local branches. Or maybe I should switch which commands I'm using to have fewer of them. I find it interesting that people tend to use very different git command workflows from each other, since there are so many ways to achieve the same thing. But after learning one way, people tend to stick with it.
@chris__martin Do you mean the main repo you are working on is in detached head state, or something auxiliary like submodules or other kinds of dependency repos? If your main repo, then I'm curious what workflow keeps you detached most of the time.
