This is what i should be doing :)

I have been justifying it away though cause it's early stages of the project so it's hard to get my bearings. But the dust is starting to settle enough now that I can probably think about committing units of work rather than this daily snapshotting ive been doing

omg these are great commands, thanks for sharing :)

git is definitely a weak spot for me in general, there's a lot of commands and similar commands, so my approach until now has been to forget they exist haha

A more polished wayland with plasma 6 :)

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Been running plasma wayland on my desktop.. and I'm glad to say it's working fine. My GPU is just the intel integrated gpu on my i7 11700. I use two monitors, one is new @165hz, the other is older, prob 60hz. I quite like the mixed refresh rate :) The issues I had before with Wayland aren't relevant to me right now (but still unfixed). I see myself going full Wayland in Plasma 6

No problem haha. I think the Arch Wiki is full of neat little tricks like that, definitely give it a check for other things ^^. In this case I actually learned about it from a high school teacher who ran Arch. I was sarcastically complaining that Arch didn't update fast enough because the update Discord wanted wasn't in the repos. So to both help me and play along, my teacher linked the wiki page and said RTFM ๐Ÿคฃ

Yup lol. Although just now I discovered that the Arch Wiki changed a section on Discord where you can disable the update check (before, it was written on how to spoof your version which I used a couple times)

New emojis don't roll out very frequently, from what I understand there's a whole process it goes through and then it sits in a queue for like 2 years. Sometimes I use the brand new ones, other times it's other people who use them and I want to see the emojis myself. Text ones are still just as valid though o(^-^)o

Desktop: (Arch) about 2-3 times a month, but used to be 1-2 times a week when I wasn't working. I also usually update when Discord stops working. Sometimes asap when there's a security fix. Otherwise i update for cool new stuff or because it's been a while :P

Laptop: (Debian) 50/50 chance when Discover says there's updates available

Phone: (ios) usually when new emojis are available ๐Ÿ’€

I'm excited! Being able to have finer-grained control of what to hibernate is a very cool consequence. If you think of the hibernated app as a file, you could in theory send the app over the network. Very interesting possibilities here :)

Thanks :) I didn't see anyone mention the points made by the svelte guys https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35892250 which is a shame since I thought they made better points than the dramatic "type gymnastics" argument haha (i am biased toward type-safety, as long as there is idiomatic, algebraic data types w/ pattern matching)

Overall it sounds like a major change with a few minor/moderate benefits, but it's their choice and time will tell if it was worth it :P

I'm not really involved in javascript land so im parroting off of what i've heard for "why js over ts?"

  • it reduces file size since you no longer need to ship source maps
  • ctrl+clicking stuff will take you to the definition rather than an unhelpful type declaration
  • if you spot a bug in the library, you can edit the source directly than having to recompile/reimport
  • ts adds some unnecessary type "gymnastics" (can't speak for what this means), when all they really want is intellisense thru jsdoc

So mainly: devs who don't prefer strongly typed languages, and library devs who find typescript to be less transparent and more time consuming for new and old contributors than it's worth

huh, TIL brushing before is apparently better

I go 1, 3, 2 because it was easier for me to form the habit that way. I don't always have time for breakfast in the morning, so I anchor it to 1 instead of 2

Agreed. First LMG needs to clean house to make it a mentally safe work environment so there is never a repeat of Madison's case ... cause wtf. Second, an apology to Billet Labs ... cause wtf. Third, they need to slow down the pace of work so the employees can focus on quality and accuracy.

The rate at which they pump out content is, in my opinion, unsustainable for the employees and unsustainable for the semi-regular viewer as well

I've noticed my recommendations have largely stopped showing me LTT videos over the past several months, probably because youtube recognizes that im not watching a large % of their videos, so why would youtube recommend the next one? i feel like their pace is thinning out their semi-regular viewers and leaving a highly devout community. To me, the semi-regulars are what add balance to the community rather than it becoming an echo chamber.

I think by slowing down, LTT will be in a much healthier happier place in the long term, even if the numbers don't obviously show it. That said, idk if I can see their videos in the same light knowing what's happened behind the curtains. I think for rn, that might be it for me.
