IANAD I am not a developer.

I got into vim because it made total sense to me as a way to transfer thoughts to words, I loved it , I lived it and I love it and live it. Then I heard about emacs org-mode – after trying for ages to find the "software to organise my life" (pick your poison).

I found it to be totally workable, initially, via doom-emacs.

Then they said "You won't believe Magit".

I didn't leave my wife, instead I invited everyone into my world.

True, I had been fooling around looking for a wife. I hit on vim. She was perfect. In her world there were people who knew all about perfection – no surprise – until I met her beautiful sister. I fell in love with her. Then I met a relation of hers (her name was Magic, also beautiful) and I invited them all back to what became their place where I am now welcome too.


May I interject with my pathetic attempt at a Classification of Intelligences ala Linnaeus

Pre-AI :: Examples :: Timeline

---------------------------------------------------------------------

NHI Non-human Intelligence :: e.g. dolphins, apes, crows etc. :: millions of years

HI Human Intelligence :: e.g. Einstein, Trump, Confuscius, Homer :: thousands of years

Post-AI

---------------------------------------------------------------------

AI Artificial Intelligence :: ChatGTP, Gemini, many others :: countable months

AGI :: Artificial General Intelligence ; not there yet; :: zero

AIApHI AI Assisted/Approved/Audited Human Intelligence :: See AI :: countable months

HIApAI Human Intelligence Assisted/Approved/Audited AI :: The Future? :: zero

I have mentioned no individuals here to avoid legal action. My point on AI is ... wait and see. Chill.


Here's an idea that might work for you. Rename ~/src/linux_/ or something like that.


I'd say that gephyrophobia is a legitimate one. I mean, I for one would be terrified to have to cross it.


pure.md proves that it is possible maybe even straightforward by prefixing a URL with pure.md/. No affiliation whatsoever and IANAJSD.


What a good article.

This is not my area of expertise but I think Klass makes some very interesting points that affect all of us eventually. He calls out the BS in his field and is even prepared for the backlash. How is progress supposed to happen if sincerely held opinions have to be defended that way? One very minor criticism I have of the article is that when he says "Don’t get me wrong: there’s a lot of astonishingly good social science research" he doesn't provide any examples. I would have liked if he'd had.


Interesting the link was dead when I tried it. Then when I googled "You'll never think again" all I got was "You'll never walk alone". I thought: "I'll never search again".


This means something to me that one dev recognizes another and gives them kudos. I applaud this positive behaviour. You'd never get that from the AI monsters. But of course, now you probably will. Sorry, everyone.


I wish you well. And I clicked you a star on github. Keep up the good work.


My goto is https://libraries.io/pypi/beautify-http-server; upload files and everything. I have it running on my Raspberry Pi.


What is libraries.io? Why not link to the official pypi page?

https://pypi.org/project/beautify-http-server/


Sorry I rushed the URL. I was focused on presenting the name of the package. I have no idea what libraries.io is.


You might want to remove the semi-colon


Too late to edit. Here's a better clickable: https://pypi.org/project/beautify-http-server/
