Moved from the molasses of VSCode to Rust-based Zed, no comparison. The second is snappy, responsive, uses much less memory (I can have 5 Zed open at the same time, no problems), not looking back.

Dropped Alexa years ago. They sure can do the same thing, and listen into every house "to find a missing child". Or some other BS. Or let all Alexas say "This is a national emergency. Do not leave the house. This is ..."

East Germany spent millions to spy on people.

Now people spend millions so the state can spy on them.

Madness.


Perfectly happy with Go, my "Go should do X" / "Go should have Y" days are over.

But if I could have a little wish, "cargo check" would be it.


Enums is mine.

Going on year 4 working at $DAY_JOB and just last week we had a case where enums and also union types would have made things simpler.


Where do you see the problems? Because of memory that was not cleaned up and leaks secrets?

There the new runtime/secret could help.


Switched from Intellij (various) to Cursor because of AI integration, only using Claude Code CLI, switched to VS because Cursor became so annoying every release, pushing their agents down my throat, activating what I did deactivate every release, recently thought "Why do I even use that slow bloated thing of VS?" and switched to Zed. Very happy camper. So much faster. So much snappier. Would love Claude Code CLI integration but can live without it. Would pay for Zed as I did pay ~25y for Intellij.

Are you familiar with ACP[0]? Through that protocol you can run claude code within zed[1]. Or perhaps I'm not understanding what you mean by using CC integration.

ACP is so much worse than Claude Code CLI - the quality is not there. Everyone assumes the JSON-CLI-API is the same as the CLI but it is not. Tool usage is different, and I assume agent system prompts are different and agents are different.

Integration like in Cursors, I use the CLI and Claude Code knows what files are open, uses Cursor for diffs etc.


Yep. Zed is the best. It’s in an optimum spot for me. It’s super snappy and has good implementation of vim keybindings for manual coding, and it has appropriate AI integration that does all the AI stuff I want without being in my face about how AI it all is.

Same, except for me Zed is one of the only editors that has emacs keybindings!

Yeah, I find Zed to be strictly the best experience for "I actually want a pleasant editor" experience. Using it reminds me of when I finally switched from nano to sublime as a freshman.

"You will only have to vote once more. Then we'll fix it"

Cool, at 7? I started at 9 and I'm 53 now. And Claude does all the things. Need to get adjusted to that though. Still not there.

Last year I found out that I always was a creator, not a coder.


We didn't know anything.

"Noam’s email to Epstein, in which Epstein sought advice about the press, should be read in context. Epstein had claimed to Noam that he [Epstein] was being unfairly persecuted".

and

"2019 did we learn the full extent"

Full extent? So what did you know before? All of this does not make any sense.


This is your third top-level comment on this thread, when you're still in the edit window for the first. These are also pretty poor comments.

Did you have some prior beef with Chomsky?


You're always hit hardest when it's your idols. Also: Nothing better to do.

<< You're always hit hardest when it's your idols

Honestly, the reactions I am seeing suggest exactly this issue. I personally like the guy and have some level of respect of the work he has done over the course of the years, but I see no need to automatically defend him from scrutiny.

This is the part that annoys the crap out of me in today's environment -- and if more people had more sense, it would annoy them too. Sufficiently radioactive accusation is enough to make person not available for public consumption. Like.. if he he guilty ( there is a good evidence suggesting that ), charge him and see where it lands.

Prevalence of a court of public opinion indicates a real problem with real courts.


Yes, first heard of Chomsky in computer science classes at university, then was totally amazed by reading a decade later Manufacturing Consent - the same guy! I thought. So, it's very sad for me to read all of this - fighting for East Timor while at the same time hanging out with the Elite and taking their money - preaching water and drinking wine and all of that - exactly the people written about in many of his texts.

The question never is: Did you know? But: Should you have known? Willfully ignoring things is not a defense.

I don't have enough information to answer that or the time to research it, and indeed, this is part of my point.

And thus why I'm writing the whole lot of them off it looks like they had real interaction with Epstein.


What has that to do with the EU?
