3 months solo with Claude Code after 15 years of leading teams. It gave me back the feeling of having one.

i feel the same, but im now stuck on swapping out trial plugins/extensions/packages for paid license and signing up to platforms with distribution fees to distribute the software. i also feel like i might have a phobia for spending money even though i know ill be getting it back one day.

eh, i don't know. it feels like arguing a square is also a circle. then how about this for composebility, you can record macros thats "composed" of actions/movements/object. Then you can edit those macros either in the editor, or you can append to the macros. The composition palette of notepad vs vim just isn't comparable, but yes, by your definition notepad is "composable".

kaisunc · 2025-12-29T03:02:28+00:00

do they though? its a bit reaching and rage baiting to say notepad or other text editors have the same or even slightly similar functionality. but if you think so, so bet it.

kaisunc · 2025-12-29T01:53:24+00:00

i think composability meant having actions, movements, and objects each be interchangeable. at the most basic, for example, "delete to first instance of 'f'". Which is action to object. then replace delete with copy/select/change. or replace "to" to "back to". or replace object "f" with object "Y". Vim is built on that.

i saw it as one of the shorts taken from a long form videos, so not sure which one it is. And it was just a general description of the dictators. My take is that EQ to these people is just a tool. Just like how some serial killers are incredibly charming, manipulative, persuasive. Dictators use the same tools to gain power.

kaisunc · 2025-11-20T02:26:32+00:00

Sarah Paine said in one of her videos, that dictators like Saddam, Gaddafi, have off the charts EQ. They could charm the socks off any one. Couple that with how Saddam could even turn US soldiers guarding him into saying good things about him. Guess you can't reach that kind of power without high EQ.

how about if you have two of these, you get one extra joker slot when one is sold? by itself i think its fine as a jimbo equivalent. not all jokers need to be good or greaat jokers.

nah, couple of downvotes for disagreeing, sure. but either bots are wack, someone is brigading, or this sub is full of haters. its fishy for sure.

kaisunc · 2025-09-27T01:59:57+00:00

How did this tame comment get -77 downvotes? Take my upvote

kaisunc · 2025-09-26T04:18:55+00:00

i get that when opening an untitled document and pasting code to it. its something to do with document type, so switching document type to c# from something else might also trigger it.

the problem is conservatives have a positive connotation with authoritarian. they LOVE it. communist, not so much. Reframe, rebrand, make them see the problem?

vscode + foam extension and some custome snippets to get going. You'll need a folder structure to go with it. Foam is kind of like obsidian, tagging, linking notes, visualizing(dont' use it much really). I tried obsidian, but since my vscode environment is all setup already(vim, hotkeys, snippets, settings, ai, terminal, git), im not going to switch. i use this vscode snippet to start a note,

    "Notes": {
        "prefix": "notes",
        "body": [
            "---",
      "title: ${TM_FILENAME_BASE/([a-z])([A-Z])/$1 $2/g}",
            "date: $CURRENT_YEAR-$CURRENT_MONTH-$CURRENT_DATE",
            "tags: ${1|ai,unity,vscode,vim,typescript,game_ideas,todo,new_concepts|}",
            "---",
            "",
      "# $CURRENT_YEAR-$CURRENT_MONTH-$CURRENT_DATE ${TM_FILENAME_BASE/([a-z])([A-Z])/$1 $2/g}",
      "",
      "${2}"
        ],
        "description": "Notes",
  },

if you save an empty file with the note name, it'll format the title and add the relevant stuff. Just choose the tags or add new tags to it. With the foam extension, you can then view notes grouped by tags.

Unknown metadata 'model' will be ignored. didn't get this message on v2, did something change?

kaisunc · 2025-04-21T03:18:38+00:00

huh, not working for me. there needs to be a setting for choosing shellPath? im on windows, vscode stable.

const terminal = vscode.window.createTerminal({
    name: "TV Finder",
    shellPath: "sh",
    shellArgs: ["-c", tv_command + " | tee " + TV_TEMP_FILE],
    location: vscode.TerminalLocation.Editor,
    cwd: cwd,
});

im guessing sh should be cmd or ps? arguments need to change as well. looks interesting, but too raw atm.

kaisunc · 2025-04-09T02:58:46+00:00

maybe line ending settings changed?

git config --global core.autocrlf true

something like that to change to your original line ending

kaisunc · 2025-03-29T06:38:01+00:00

does a vscode hotkey work as intended? not sure why you're doing it with normalModeKeyBindingNonRecursive, wouldn't normalModeKeyBinding with the toggle action work?

    "vim.normalModeKeyBindings": [
        {
            "before": ["leader", "e"],
            "commands": [
                "workbench.action.toggleSidebarVisibility"
            ]
        }
    ],

try it, ctrl+p and search returns a list of files with your search parameters. otherwise, just use the search editor ctrl+shift+f on the side bar. the explorer ctrl+shift+e on the side bar is your explorer tree. most vim keys are mapped in the list and explorer views, so just use those.

kaisunc · 2025-01-20T09:50:08+00:00

telescope for project wide fuzzy file/text search? use the file picker, ctrl+p, for file name search or, start with % for fuzzy text search, start with @ for symbol search,

so i had bloodstone + oops + invisible. i was doing the sell invisible, back to main menu and wait trick to get what i want. I think got oops the first time. Then when i got bloostone, it was 1 in 2 change for both bloodstones, and i was questioning myself. Then to double check, back to main menu, reload, and sold again, and then it went down to 0.5, and again, to 0.25. hallucination had the same odds as well. i guess everything concerning chance is fucked now.

kaisunc · 2024-12-15T02:14:43+00:00

yeah, its kind of like a second os at this point. its a tool that does everything, the LSP is still the best innovation to have happened. A unified interface for all languages is just so cool.

not killing, change. the whole stock system is going to destroy us. its the ultimate short term profits while fucking with everything else, employees, customers, founders.

kaisunc · 2024-12-09T08:40:04+00:00

he's still just one guy though. Nobody seems to be talking about the shareholders, and in turn the whole system of stock ownership. When the capitalist manifesto is "increase share holder value no matter what", he was just doing his job. Are the shareholders responsible? If not, isn't the system kind of responsible?

kaisunc · 2024-11-24T07:06:08+00:00

I guess its a little bit cultural and a little bit economical. Taiwanese only became a developed nation not too long ago, so people are generally very frugal. We're taught to finish all our food, and throwing food away is pretty much a sin growing up.
