Coming at this from an accessibility… is there any reason the tab, arrow, scape, escape and enter keys would not suffice?

Is it about efficiency? Are Linux GUI apps not expected to be keyboard-only accessible by default?

Sounds like you may be interested in a certain manifesto.

Don’t mind me, I’m just picking the very best grains of sand to make my own silicon, like a real programmer (xkcd).

An open source-ish corporate product is valuable in so much as it’s a vehicle for a paid service, right?

Interestingly enough, you also have amazon.co.uk, which combines the nature (commercial) and location served (UK), but in the opposite order.

But it could limit the usage of its TLD.

There’s a lot to talk about from this point alone, but I’ll be brief: having gone through university courses on processor design and cutting my teeth on fighting people for a single bit in memory, I’m probably a lot more comfortable with that minutia than most; having written my first few lines of C in 10 years to demo a basic memory safety bug just an hour ago, you’re way way ahead of me.

There are different ways to learn and gain experience and each path will train us in different skills. Then we build teams around that diversity.

There’s nothing like having your network go poof and knowing with 100% certainty that it’s your fault and you’re the only one who can fix it.

I threw together a quick image to ASCII conversion project to actually use a couple of concepts.

Sometime this week I’d like to make it not panic over every little thing. I feel like I should be shifting error handling left, but it’s not very natural for me, just yet.

I will say, the ergonomics for testing with cargo are excellent.

I said it’ll reduce friction, you said it might be easier. Looks like we’re in complete agreement, right?

This is super interesting. I’ll admit I wasn’t even aware of this effort. Even real-time usage of Windows relies on a parallel kernel.

This sounds like it’ll create a lot of cool opportunities and reduce friction.

We’ve all read this post multiple times. Isn’t it just the “young people are lazy” that’s been going around for thousands of years?

At most it’s a tangent on it…
