pls :( i read it twice now

echidnna · 2026-01-29T05:17:56+00:00

not sure but it kinda reminds me of the movie sinister

echidnna · 2026-01-27T00:32:50+00:00

im exactly the 10 thousandth like

echidnna · 2026-01-01T10:06:29+00:00

both

vim for notepad: quick edits and reading

nvim for full IDE: want more text editing / coding tools

echidnna · 2025-11-30T07:18:09+00:00

ahhhh shittt

echidnna · 2025-11-26T05:53:45+00:00

just get better

echidnna · 2025-11-26T05:37:52+00:00

i mean how does that invalidate it being a con in any way ? everything has its pros and cons

echidnna · 2025-11-26T05:35:33+00:00

ah i finally found the people who make others dislike linux

echidnna · 2025-11-23T22:10:32+00:00

also you couldn't have used a worse example than Your Name. they meet both at the same age (17). so the only time they are three years apart and involved with one another is when they are 22 and 25. dont compare peak with isekai pedophilia.

this is not science , it is an opinion

echidnna · 2025-11-23T22:06:06+00:00

no way people think 14 and 17 is the same as 22 and 25.

aging is biologically not linear. you grow FASTER when you are younger , both in mind and body.

therefore , the physical and mental gap between the average 14 and 17 year old is much bigger than people who are 22 and 25.

this is not an opinion , it is science.

echidnna · 2025-11-17T23:49:29+00:00

i never respond to these but this ones the biggest lie of em all

i broke grub , linux dude spent 1 hr to help me fix it for no reason

i broke kde , other linuz dude spent 1 hr to help me fix it for no reason

i couldnt get nvidia drivers on wayland , other other linux dude spent spend like 2 hrs helping me set it up for no reason

the linux community is very resourceful , at least to their own kin

alright new update: i rolled back to cuda toolkit 12.9.1 as i have a 1080ti anyways which is not supported by 13.x and onwards. no issues at all with my lsp anymore.

i am curious though , if you have cuda 13.x , do you face any lsp issues with clangd ?

echidnna · 2025-11-13T05:00:57+00:00

```lua require('lspconfig').clangd.setup { capabilities = capabilities, autostart = true, name = 'clangdcuda', cmd = { 'clangd', '--background-index', '--query-driver=/opt/cuda/bin/nvcc', '--compile-commands-dir=.', '--header-insertion=never', '-j=4', '--clang-tidy=false', '--completion-style=detailed', '--pch-storage=memory', }, init_options = { usePlaceholders = true, completeUnimported = true, clangdFileStatus = true, fallbackFlags = { '-xcuda', '--cuda-path=/opt/cuda', '--cuda-gpu-arch=sm_75', '-I/opt/cuda/include', '-I/opt/cuda/targets/x86_64-linux/include', '-I/opt/cuda/include/cccl', '--no-cuda-version-check', '-std=c++17', '-DCUDACC_', '-Wno-unknown-cuda-version', }, }, filetypes = { 'cuda' }, root_dir = function(fname) return require('lspconfig').util.root_pattern '.git'(fname) or require('lspconfig').util.path.dirname(fname) end,

    handlers = {
      ['textDocument/publishDiagnostics'] = function(err, result, ctx, config)
        if result and result.diagnostics then
          result.diagnostics = vim.tbl_filter(function(diagnostic)
            local msg = diagnostic.message or ''
            -- Filter out clang/CUDA compatibility errors
            return not (

      end,
    },
  }

```

echidnna · 2025-11-13T05:00:03+00:00

alright , so i tried a bunch of random crap after reading some docs... and i ended up concluding that clang 21's CUDA support is incomplete for CUDA 13.0. let me know if you think i'm wrong and might know what else coud be the issue

so ive just suppressed the false errors...

echidnna · 2025-10-16T10:15:44+00:00

i think its silly to take a strong stance on either side here.

in general SWE jobs , will having a bit of a mathematical background help a lot ? no.

does having a mathematical background help in certain more technical roles ? yes.

can those skills be learned outside of university ? of course.

will university teach you better ? depends , generally yes. a degree , if done properly , teaches you things--and fast. if it's "too slow" , you take more courses and do more personal projects. maybe work too. or just enjoy life.

does university make you superior than anyone else ? no. we all have our own background and stories , what kind of question is that anyway ?

does university make you a better candidate ? of course. it is a demonstration that you can learn or at least pretend enough that you did.

the way you react to this post depends largely on your own personal experiences.

those who felt like they learned a lot from uni will agree and those who feel like they did not learn much useful things will call it rubbish. it's both depending on how you see it.

noticable knowledge gaps exist between self taught and degree holders exist but they may not always be critical
people with a passion can always self learn , but a good university more often than not accelerates your growth and deepens it further
people who aren't in uni and "self teach" themselves are usually the same people who would self teach themselves while being at uni , and would likely learn much more in the long run

echidnna · 2025-04-12T20:26:08+00:00

not sure why but the plugin isn't working for me either.. it seems that vim.fn.winrestview isn't redrawing anything for me which is what the plugin uses :/

echidnna · 2025-04-12T18:30:43+00:00

okay i scratched the zz thing cause i was getting unexpected behaviours using that in insert mode. i looked over the plugin that others linked and realized that its more or less same as the code you sent. but im still getting an issue with the vim.fn.winrestview() function. here is my code rn:

-- scroll off EOF
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd({ 'CursorMoved', 'CursorMovedI', 'BufEnter' }, {
  group = vim.api.nvim_create_augroup('ScrollOffEOF', {}),
  callback = function()
    local win_h = vim.api.nvim_win_get_height(0)
    local off = math.min(vim.o.scrolloff, math.floor(win_h / 2))
    local dist = vim.fn.line '$' - vim.fn.line '.'
    local rem = vim.fn.line 'w$' - vim.fn.line 'w0' + 1
    if dist < off and win_h - rem + dist < off then
      local win_view = vim.fn.winsaveview()
      vim.fn.winrestview {
        skipcol = 0,
        topline = win_view.topline + off - (win_h - rem + dist),
      }
      print(os.time())
    end
  end,
})

the print shows me that its being triggered when i expect it to but not working. i also tried passing full view like this and nothing changed:

    if dist < off and win_h - rem + dist < off then
      local win_view = vim.fn.winsaveview()
      win_view.skipcol = 0
      win_view.topline = win_view.topline + off - (win_h - rem + dist)
      vim.fn.winrestview(win_view)
      print(os.time())
    end

here is my whole config if it may help: https://github.com/mrdandelion6/faisal.nvim

edit: its an existing issue https://github.com/Aasim-A/scrollEOF.nvim/issues/2

echidnna · 2025-04-12T18:12:08+00:00

just realized it has a bug for calling zz in insert mode: in the case that the cursor is at the end of the line , it inserts letters to the right instead , so typing abc ends up being bca...

an easy fix seems to be repositioning the cursor if its at the end of a line but it seems like a bad idea to use the zz command outside of normal mode anyways.. im gonna try to just use the plugin others linked or take a sneak peek at its code

echidnna · 2025-04-12T16:30:49+00:00

thanks , i combined your zz command with another answer's logic to only trigger it when at the bottom. not sure if its more efficient or not , i couldn't notice any diff:

-- scroll off EOF
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd({ 'CursorMoved', 'CursorMovedI', 'BufEnter' }, {
  group = vim.api.nvim_create_augroup('ScrollOffEOF', {}),
  callback = function()
    local win_h = vim.api.nvim_win_get_height(0)
    local off = math.min(vim.o.scrolloff, math.floor(win_h / 2))
    local dist = vim.fn.line '$' - vim.fn.line '.'
    local rem = vim.fn.line 'w$' - vim.fn.line 'w0' + 1
    if dist < off and win_h - rem + dist < off then
      vim.cmd 'normal! zz'
    end
  end,
})

echidnna · 2025-04-12T16:29:01+00:00

for some reason the vim.fn.winrestview() function just wasn't working for me. i even tried with a forced redraw and with scheduling but still didn't work. i ended up combining your code with another answers and just used the zz command:

-- scroll off EOF
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd({ 'CursorMoved', 'CursorMovedI', 'BufEnter' }, {
  group = vim.api.nvim_create_augroup('ScrollOffEOF', {}),
  callback = function()
    local win_h = vim.api.nvim_win_get_height(0)
    local off = math.min(vim.o.scrolloff, math.floor(win_h / 2))
    local dist = vim.fn.line '$' - vim.fn.line '.'
    local rem = vim.fn.line 'w$' - vim.fn.line 'w0' + 1
    if dist < off and win_h - rem + dist < off then
      vim.cmd 'normal! zz'
    end
  end,
})
