I have switched between left and right mouse every few years when I was younger, just to see what works best for me. I could adapt to both, even though I can only write and draw with my left hand. I have settled with…
Same, I always misread the title like this when it comes up and it amuses me for a while, since it sounds like it could be a book written by Franz Kafka.
Years ago, someone demonstrated an improved mobile text editing system called "Eloquent" [1] and I wish this would be the default today. However, my biggest issue with mobile text selection is accidental scrolling or…
Don’t know if it was added after your comment, but there actually is one separate page for each character, just click the arrow in the top-right corner of each box. For more "giant" character previews I can recommend…
Maybe the structure and operation in LLMs is a somewhat accurate model of the structure and operation of our brains and maybe the actual representation of “thought” is different between the human brain and LLMs. Then it…
In the past few years I have seen some serious efforts from the Clojure community to make Clojure more attractive for data science. Check out the Scicloj[1] group and their data science stack/toolkit Noj[2] (still in…
You might have forgotten the language but I bet it must have had some influence on how you think or write programs today. I don’t think the value of learning Prolog is necessarily that you can then write programs in…
It is unfortunate, but I can absolutely understand it. Keeping up such open-ended, time-consuming projects year after year while the person doing it changes inevitably – their personal life, habits, job, interests, etc.…
As an autodidact who never learned this stuff at school/uni, his lectures are what made linear algebra really click for me. I can only recommend them to anyone who wants to get a visual intuition on the fundamentals of…
Years ago when I was reading this (just a couple of chapters, not all of it), it opened my eyes to the power of diagrammatic representation in formal reasoning unlike anything before. I never did anything useful with…
Okay, I can see the issue now, maybe I haven’t really used dired intensely enough for it to bother me. I just tried your snippet and having the cursor remain on the dired buffer for a quick preview is a feature I didn’t…
I guess you already know the command `dired-find-file-other-window` (bound to `o` by default), which reuses the right split window, if already there and opens a new window if there is none. Horizontal splits do not seem…
I am not sure if this is what you mean, but the original UCBLogo (which I think is used in the Turtle Geometry book) is still alive and maintained[1] (not by the original authors, but Brian Harvey seems to chime in…
My Emacs wouldn’t be the same without Prots modus themes[1], which I found to be a great foundation to build my own theme on top of. I am grateful for all the work he did for the Emacs community. I also enjoy watching…
I like using LLMs more as coding assistents than have them write the actual code. When I am thinking through problems of code organization, API design, naming things, performance optimization, etc., I found that Claude…
I’ve been considering Parinfer, but my issue was that it is a bit unpredictable where parens end up and I have to be careful to not mess up my code structure. Maybe I should give it another try for a longer time period.…
Apparently, it is set to false by default in Zen Browser. In my Firefox it was still true.
I believe convenience and actually wanting to give something back to the creators would have many people pay for pro features, since it’s actually “Pay once, use for life”, which is a rare and welcome sight in this…
It seems like they borrowed heavily from Notion, Obsidian and RemNote, as far as I can tell (wouldn’t call it a knock-off though, since there are sooo many apps in this space that you don’t really know who came up with…
Good idea to update the radio targets along with the wrapping. Also, I didn’t know `insert-pair` exists, could have saved me some typing. :)
To quickly link to bullet points, just use [[*My bullet point]] (if you omit the *, it may still work but Org also finds non-heading elements like table names with the same text). Personally, I like to create custom ids…
I couldn’t find the command you mentioned “org-insert-radio-target-brackets” in my Emacs and it doesn’t appear to be in the manual[1] either. But of course it is very trivial to write, in case anyone else needs this:…
Clojure developers also often make use of single-letter variable names, following conventions in `clojure.core`: https://guide.clojure.style/#idiomatic-names My rule of thumb is to only use short names in the local…
In case anyone finds this who is also interested: I just stumbled upon an implementation of shadcn/ui components with css modules that looks pretty solid: https://github.com/qwalker8408/shadcn-css/tree/main Hopefully…
I love the approach of shadcn and the fact that they use Radix primitives, which have a focus on accessibility. But I wish they would have a pure CSS option without tailwind style classes. It took me some time to…
