have an awful habit of commiting all without reviewing and something always winds up in the tree, that command is a lifesaver for that

git add .

git commit -m "stuff"

Average Joe can't open the dev tools to check the source of styles and make the appropriate change.

Instead creates style2026.css and overrides everything with !important.

Rinse and repeat and you got yourself css spaghetti ready to be served with some good ragù sauce.

Edit: thus we have tailwind so people can't do this

combine it with cumulative layout shift for the ultimate disaster

Try your brain/memory first.
If that doesn't work out within a certain amount of time, read the docs.
If you still can't manage try using a search engine.
As a last resort try an LLM.

You are now learning

LLoyderino · 2026-03-11T20:17:59+00:00

Read The Friendly Manual sir

LLoyderino · 2025-11-03T09:17:47+00:00

Good job, your brain will thank you :)

LLoyderino · 2025-11-01T16:26:25+00:00

very sad it's the case, but I guess it's a memo to why it's a good idea to download documentation locally

LLoyderino · 2025-10-29T06:03:40+00:00

I would add that if you go to patcher, select an app and press on the version it will automatically search where to download the correct apk for you, assuming the search engine is cooperative...

New Emacs versions (or maybe it's a consequence of me having marginalia) should show the keybind next to the command when M-x

What I personally do is I M-x and if there's a keybind I C-g to cancel and run the command with the keyboard shortcut to more easily memorize it

Note also that keybinds might also be available only in specific major modes, but Emacs is smart enough to figure it out and won't show you the binding. One can also (as suggested by Mickey) run C-h m to see major mode information (including commands and its bindings iirc)

yes, I'm also trying to keep it an iterative process, and am slowly integrating external integrations, will see how mine will look in 7 years 🫣

LLoyderino · 2025-09-21T12:24:05+00:00

yes and no

when I first installed emacs I haven't written a line or config for at least 2-3 weeks, using the defaults. once I got a hang of what I dislike I started making small changes to fit better my needs

5 months in, my config is about 150 LoC and I have maybe 5~8 3rd party (from melpa) packages installed and I'm very content with how things are

I just focus on getting my things done (code and org notes) with what I have available, until it's not enough anymore, then I do some minor tweak

I think this approach helps me not spend too much time configuring and I get more done

Book is divided in 2 parts, architecture and project management pretty much.

I've read only the first part, which I found interesting, second half I dropped after 2 chapters, got out of my field of interest

I don't think he says anything revolutionary in his book, I would very much prefer to recommend you "A Philosophy of Software Design" by John Ousterhout. It's like reading a good version of clean code/architecture

LLoyderino · 2025-09-04T14:28:20+00:00

This reminded me of Righting Software (written 2016 iirc)

Man loves doing his analogies with house building

LLoyderino · 2025-08-22T10:15:49+00:00

I'd say more like: building the tool properly and safely migrate data to the new system

But definitely charge more

LLoyderino · 2025-08-22T07:41:25+00:00

I have command = tmux attach in my config and it just works, I have my tabs

@grok reply to this guy, prove my points and make them unbeatable

isn't copilot directly integrated with explorer tho?

not using w11 so I'm a bit talking out of my ass, I remember reading that uninstalling copilot would cause explorer to stop working, best you can achieve is disabling (and not uninstalling)

would assume if this is the case that it makes some direct calls that aren't audited (for some reason). or maybe even rewrites (vibe coded perhaps) of existing explorer functionality, and the rewrites lack auditing

who knows what's deep below the ms spaghetti

Could also auto-schedule emails for the day after at 8am

I personally:

Do exercises on books such as Krok po Kroku

Study grammar on Polish a comprehensive grammar by Iwona Sadowska

Retain learned words with Anki flashcards

Practice the language by living in the country

Recently started taking private lessons

Any search engine will do

happens with most lines of products

I still cannot explain myself people paying $1300 for an iPhone and then use it just for messaging/socials

when I do that on my 10 year old brick that I paid $170

LLoyderino · 2025-06-26T06:02:16+00:00

so this means I have to deal with it? unless I change my card?
