  • Yup, just get the hell off Reddit. And Twitter. Both of those cess pools.

    I deleted my Reddit account of, was it 11 years? More? Anyway, sometimes I miss being able to comment there whenever I come across someone kind, or some idiot. But then I think, boy, morally, I feel better not partaking. Lemmy is the future for now. I’ll abstain from the cancer.



  • Also the object-verb and selection-verb paradigm just makes so much more sense compared to vim’s verb-object/-motion paradigm. Especially with the ability to have multiple cursors and selections. It’s so powerful.

    I started with Emacs for about a year or two, then vim for about 10+ years, then neovim, then VS Code with vim bindings for a few years, then Kakoune, which was very interesting, then VS Code with Kakoune bindings, then the switch to Helix was very natural. Never looked back after about 2 years with Helix.

    It’s basically everything I loved from VS Code but in the terminal. And all the keyboard goodness from vim and Kakoune, combined. It’s great.









  • Those parents seem pretty rotten. Either dodge this bullet and tell her it’s a bad fit, or, if you care about her, let her know that you don’t appreciate her parents talking to or about you in that way.

    Her response to either one should be important to observe. She might reveal that she agrees with them, or that she thinks her parents are dumb for saying those things.

    It’s ultimately up to you. But know this: you are way more successful than I was at your age. Nice job! 👏💪🫸🫷





  • I don’t think I’d be able to have a full meal for breakfast. Some people just can’t bring themselves to eat a lot in the morning. I know people with diabetes who force-feed themselves in the morning for their life/doctor’s orders.

    But yeah, I don’t like cereal since a couple decades, really. That’s breakfast for kids.
