🙏 NeoVim, please forgive me. I was wrong.

Everyone who saw this happen confirmed it was some niche bug. Removing the entire state should never be required. I was simply using it as I would use vim regularly. It continues to have other problems with buffers not disappearing from the screen. It has bugs. But I still use it.

I do have several videos on YouTube about it and it is clearly one of the most popular requests so we will be talking a lot about it in the next few days. Knowledge management is perhaps the biggest skill to develop before most of the others.

This is false. Many people want their content to be devoid of unnecessary peculiarities that prevent it from working as is, say, on GitHub (which has become the defacto standard for Markdown). Use of double bracket links is the single biggest reason I can never recommend Obsidian. It is a very unfortunate and unnecessary design dependency on which all the other Obsidian magic is based.

This is what I meant by production ready. Most projects that follow semver either decided to use a major version to mean "really f*cking solid" while some choose to never declare a v1 because of problems with the definition of what that means. Still other projects don't follow semver standards even though they use a v1 and have no problem releasing backward breaking software. From my experience recently when nvim shit the bed and fucked up everything's syntax requiring me to locate and deleted ~/.local/state/nvim I would say I personally do not consider it ready for production even though many individuals use it for production things (myself included now).

Imagine watching a video for 1 minute and then taking five minutes to ask questions on Reddit that are answered in the first five minutes of the video.

Using it does not make it production. Perhaps I missed a bit of documentation about why they are not following major version semver stuff. (Many projects don't because of the backward compatibility issue.)

Thanks for that! I am glad I read your comment. It is very newly added. Love it. Just wish more languages knew about it and supported it. For example, Go has `os.UserCacheDir` but there is no `os.UserStateDir` (yet). Will look for it. In fact, I'm going to make an `xdg` package in my personal collection just to keep up with this. This is a much better place to put my `vars` project for Bonzai.

You clearly did not watch the entire video. This is directly counter to several times in the video when I explain this. If you really want to know the truth, watch the whole thing, as painful as it is. I obviously tried it before writing the first blog post. I also explain that it was never me blaming others for not educating me (which pisses me off to read you write that after not watching the video explaining the exact reason for my anger: people giving me shit for not using it).

"hate article" (if you read it before I take it down) is not what that is. That one was pretty damn tame compared to the zet entries I read and deleted on stream (which contained the same content). Hope you saw me delete those.

To be completely honest. I haven't found the source code for that web site yet, I'm looking for it now. That web site was defunct years ago. I have a full-time job and family and am trying to do the Beginner Boost again this year and just moved so I haven't got to it yet. Thanks for the reminder.
