What terminal app are people using these days? I always go back to Terminal.app, because a lot of the others aren't very Mac like. Warp is cool, but I'm not sure it's for me. Maybe just iTerm?

@collin I use kitty on my linux machine.

Most important feature is support for rendering font ligatures. This makes => a proper arrow and >= a proper math symbol. Easy typo, beautifully avoided.

Tabs or spaces?

kronn,
@kronn@ruby.social avatar

@collin ideally, both tabs AND spaces. Tabs for semantic indent, spaces for purely visual indent. That is however a higher cognitive stress during writing, so it's really unpopular.

In practice, I follow the currently common ruby-style of 2 spaces.

I am at the point where I assume everyone in the Rails core team is at least racist by proxy. If you don't want to be called a racist and work on that team: do something. And everyone who is using Rails: please try to use other languages or frameworks. The world is big out there. You don’t have to use that racists technology.

@bitboxer how would you handle big projects built with rails? A rewrite is IMHO not doable in the short term.

If I would start today anew, I would do it in either hanami or phoenix, sure. Can one "strangler fig" almost 11 years of code?

@bitboxer I didn't feel that need in years. I'm still angry with rails on a very technical level, no need to read up on the bullshit the head honcho proclaims.

For everyone outside the German political discourse:

The FDP (the ‘liberal' party that is part of the government) basically reduced the amount all government departments can spend. The reaction of the family minister: change the maximum earning limit for getting parental leave money from 300k a year to 150k a year (Which is still a lot of money to earn). Now the FDP is mad and says: No, don't take away money from rich people. Those are our core voter group.

🤡

@bitboxer I earn well in Switzerland and I don't make 150k/year. With that much money, you don't need any subsidiaries.

Also, I think that FDP misses the point that they got elected by first-time voters as well.

Yesterday I finished working for a client. The next couple of weeks I will relax and work on https://wishlephant.com, the wish list side project of my wife and me. I will implement a new design and move the frontend to . That will be fun 🥰.

@bitboxer was that something you wished for? #scnr

I never had the feeling that I miss . But with , I do. I barely posted stuff there, but the amount of information I got from that place every day was amazing. It’s gone now. It will never come back. Goodbye old friend 🥲.

@bitboxer I feel relieved, to me reddit mostly was a time-sink. Entertaining, but still.

Twitter remains being a way to connect to 4-5 people I otherwise would not reach easily.

All in all it is a shame to see things go that worked for oneself.

I'm not sure that git users should make fun of emacs users 😂😂😂

@tenderlove just because some people regularly use git-butterly to amend the commit that introduced a bug? (uses git-bisect and of course the reflog under the hood)

I appreciate this Waffle House number greatly. If I ever go full “Beautiful Mind,” it will come in the form of me seeing powers of two everywhere.
