@smurthys what makes you thing c++ wasn’t organically grown? Clearly there is a lot of shit in there!

@kkolakowski curious how the release and debug rust builds take essentially the same time. This doesn’t seem typical.

@ringtailringo @dekkzz76@emacs.ch fair points. I guess I enjoy the configuration because I like programming and the process of incrementally improving my work flow. I found vim was hard to improve beyond a certain point when I switched almost a decade ago. Speed isn’t the best (esp on windows which I unfortunately need to use) but not a problem and more than adequate on fast hardware and Linux.

@dekkzz76@emacs.ch @ringtailringo I actually mainly just edit code with emacs. I guess I’m weird.

I'm now convinced that the root of the OpenAI fiasco is that they successfully invent Skynet in the future but failed to program it to love humanity.

So one of the board members is a time traveler sent back by the resistance to prevent the creation of Skynet. But since they're a pacifist instead of using guns, they're using boardroom shenanigans. 😆

@wirthy@emacs.ch wow still not fixed! I posted the original issue. It’s a simple fix I’d have thought it would be a no brainer.

My #emacs find of the day is that imenu works well in most magit buffers.

eg. select a commit, M-x imenu, rejoice

@peterdrake Glad you asked. The safest method is to avoid touching the ground near a downed powerline. HTH.

@propagandalf haha I battled typst-ts-mode package last night and lost. I need to understand treesitter a bit better it appears, or maybe the package is the issue, not sure.

I feel like every person born before 1980 has a baby photo of them being bathed in a kitchen sink and I have a theory that most of it stopped when people got dishwashers and realized it was a much more convenient way to clean their children.

Playing around with it's like a dream come true so far. I edit in , changes show up in the generated pdf very quickly with the command line tool in watch mode. No fussing around with ponderous toolchains. Next up converting a medium size doc with a lot of equations from .

@__h2__ depends a lot on your editor and configuration. Mine (emacs with eglot) has a code actions command where that shows up.

@mo8it Are you using it for anything serious, or just noodling around with it? This is the first I've heard of this tool, but it sounds amazing tbh, I wonder what the pain points are.

@LouisIngenthron Did that back in the day. Do not want to go back to it.

@LouisIngenthron I agree with everything but local/remote branches. I need local branches for experiments that no one else needs to see, I don't think local should be the default though.

The sad thing is the git internals have a pretty good design, but the commands are a mess.

@LouisIngenthron Yeah UX is poor for sure. Even so, once I integrated the peculiarities and made them habit, it works pretty well in practice and I kind of like it. Stockholm syndrome maybe.

@AmenZwa Damn I should have saved the old man yells at cloud meme for this one, lol. I remember those days, making code portable between all the Unixes was not easy. Today, if only Wndows would disappear, the world would bea better place.
