+1 for zsh-autosuggestions. It is the most important plugin I use because all I have to do is remember the first 2 characters of a command to get the suggestion and autofill it on the command line. It saves so much time and frees up space in my head for more important things to remember.


As a Rustacean currently learning Elixir, I found myself wanting this exact functionality. Kudos for making this, I'll definitely use it!


See my reply elsewhere; you might be better off with using `with` in conjunction with the `{:ok, value}` or `{:error, "message"}` convention. That's more or less what this package does.

Welcome to Elixir! My company uses Elixir extensively, but I'm trying to get us to use some Rust for some NIFs and some other projects that would benefit from some performance. Both languages are really great and I derive great joy from using them. :)


Thanks :)

I was copy/pasting bits of this code in multiple projects, this quickly became annoying.


Immersion. The fastest way to get through the "practice hump" is to accept the dip in productivity and keep learning. No turning back to your old method. The same applied when I learned the Dvorak keyboard layout, and I presume the same applies for language learning among other examples.

For vim specifically, I think mode changes are the most important to learn first. Past that, it's building muscle memory for all the keybinds (and actually discovering the keybinds).


Nice job! From the video it looks like many of the pages share the same buttons. I'm curious how you detect which page is open to operate the corresponding circuit?

I'm most interested in security and embedded systems. I love learning and am happy to do so on the job.


I'm happy to hear this statistic, but American cities need to change so much to make it happen - mainly removing cars as other commenters pointed out. A good start would be making public transportation more available through buses and trains, followed by limiting cars in already more walkable areas of the city.

Not Just Bikes is a great YouTube channel that explores city planning and often compares American cities to cities in the Netherlands. He has a video on Strong Towns as well.

Looking for part time remote work, preferably in systems / backend / CLI environment. I very much enjoy working on open source projects, security, hardware, and tooling. I'm adaptible, learn pretty quickly, and I am easy going.


Does anyone have a good resource on writing compiled languages? I'd like to join this Jam but I don't know where to start.


Thanks for the suggestion! Through that search I found this HN post comparing most of the popular animation libraries.

I agree. The process of programming involves a lot of "head hitting the wall." Having a goal helps you stay motivated when running into such tedious issues.
