Weird, you'd think it would be chilling

We do combustion tests. I'm around an awful lot of steel and some electronics (and some magnetic fields occasionally).

Rugged everyday watch (self.watches)
 

I am working on my PhD mainly doing lab work. When I first started, I bought a Tissot LeLocle Powermatic 80, which I absolutely love. However, in the lab, there's a lot of hazards for an automatic and I started taking it out fairly often. Is there an automatic that's not too expensive (ideally under 500 but sub 1000€ at most), somewhat magnetic and shock resistant? Been thinking that I'd like to get a Diver, but not a prerequisite

Thanks for your help, cheers!

Allowing to add functionalities in Rust in c/[email protected]

I think helix has been talking a lot about this issue too. Their solution, as far as I understand it, is to use a LISP language for scripting and extensibility and a wasm plugin system for performance critical plugins. Not sure how far it is into implementation, but something to look out for.

I think he means product managers? The people in charge of design changes and ad placement.

Only thing I'm really hoping they get done ASAP is a plugins system. That'd just make helix into THE editor for me. I want to learn rust anyway, but now I really want to just so I can contribute to the project...

Before switching to helix (to me its more intuitive and I like the design decisions it made), neovide was the only thing holding me into Neovim. Its pretty good, and fast too. Try it!
