Silksong is easily the best game I’ve played in the last few years. If you haven’t played it, I’d highly recommend. It’ll be worth every penny.

Never used Apple Photos so not sure about the migration. But I can confirm that live photos work just fine.

As far as I understand, it doesn’t keep copies of the different edits. The original file is saved, and the edits are serialized and stored in some form. Only one more copy is generated for the final version for preview and such. When editing again, you can add to or subtract from previous edits, and again a maximum of two files will be present. (But there would be no thumbnail, preview etc. for the original. So it isn’t exactly double the storage usage.)

This is my vague recollection from what I’ve read in the discussions, so take it with a grain of salt. But this is close to what’s happening when you’re editing.

It just feels right. It took me some time to get used to the vim motions. But man, does it make moving around any project so fast and natural. I went in for the customizability. And that’s obviously there. But the sheer speed it gives me is uncanny. My past self with VS Code could never.

I’d also suggest taking some time to write your own config from scratch once you get the hang of it; it’ll be worth it.

I’ve been using a Huion tablet for a long time. While it works, it’d be great to have some first party support. It’s a shame that it doesn’t seem like it’ll happen anytime soon.

Great app. I’d also drop a link to this project I found which acts as a drop-in replacement for gpodder. It’s selfhosted, and works perfectly for syncing progress from AntennaPod.

Idk, I feel like it’s blown out of proportions a bit. It’s always supposed to be unsupported, and users are supposed to look at the PKGBUILD files. I know most people don’t, but I don’t think that’s AUR’s fault.

I love the rolling release model, and the AUR. (I even maintain some packages on AUR.) I have installed and used pure Arch in the past, if only for the rite of passage.

But nowadays I mostly use EndeavourOS. It’s basically Arch once it’s installed, but has a nice and fast installer, with great defaults. Also, the community is awesome. I rarely need any help anymore, but I still like hanging out in their forums helping others, and generally chatting about non-Linux stuff.

Fair enough. I’m not a professional programmer, so I guess I won’t understand your frustration with long term maintenance of Go code. I do agree that it can be unnecessarily verbose. Writing something as simple as an http server takes a long time. Also, the dependency management sucks. It can’t seem to decide if it wants to be declarative or not.

I do like that it’s dead simple though, and that the standard library has most of the basic stuff. I’ve mostly replaced the need for Python with Go, for small CLI apps. Nowadays, I only use Python when I have to use some specific library, mostly for mathematical computing.

Yes. IIRC, the flavor that I used was MSWLogo.

I don’t think there’s an std-way of doing it, but the Rust ecosystem has this thing where people usually settle around one library. In this case, it is tokio. Afaik, most async stuff is done using tokio. What little async I’ve used, it’s been using tokio or some library like actix-web that uses tokio under the hood.

Also, side note, I never understood the idea of why golang is ugly. I think it’s fine, except for maybe the repeated if err != nil guards. Those are ugly. I wish it used additive types for error handling.

Relevant.

I’ve always preferred the functional approach to programming, so OOP never really intrigued me. That’s one of the reasons why I never liked C++ or Java, but instantly fell in love with Rust. It lets me do a lot of functional style programming, while still being somewhat practical. (I’m looking at you, Haskell.)

My first ever big boy language was C++ (after Basic, and Logo, does anyone remember that lol). I was in middle school, tried to self-learn from learncpp.com, only to realize that I had mostly learned C, with cin-cout instead of printf-scanf. So I just decided to migrate to C. Nowadays, I mostly code in Rust, Go, and Python. But my experience with C has been extremely helpful. Can’t say the same about C++ though.

Thanks. Hope you like it.

Thanks. Just a small correction. The API isn’t really REST, it’s REST-ish but probably closer to JSON-RPC.

Hope you like it.

That could be, but I don’t think that it should be relied upon. The shortener itself can execute malicious code, so that kind of security is, in my opinion, essentially theatre. I’d just say that don’t click on links that you don’t trust.

This project is for own use/use with friends/family/internally in an org etc., where trust isn’t an issue. Of course, I cannot stop anyone from using it in any other way that they see fit. It can help shorten annoying long links for ease of sharing, but that’s it.

Wayback machine seems to be unable to save this.

Here’s a screenshot.
