Bun rewrite in rust is wow 🤯
Kudos to the Jarred for taking the leap

Secret heuristic: if you see "idk" in a tweet, stop reading. 100% accurate.

@cmuratori Same as those "24fps iS eNouGh fOr YouR bRaiN" against 160hz screen.
English
Just want to make sure I'm reading this right: Microsoft rewrote the run dialog with performance "top-of-mind", and the best they could manage to do when putting up a single text box was 10fps?

Half the joy of collecting retro gaming is the box art, the cartridges, the artifacts. We've lost something important giving up on those physical manifestations of software. Comeback?

@sudobunni @dhh this would be sick

Can anyone recommend a dead simple, easy to use notetaking app based on markdown files?
Obsidian is far too complicated for me. I'm looking for Apple Notes, but with markdown storage

Nvim 0.13 gained vim.ui.img, a stdlib interface for displaying images.
- useful for markdown files, directory browse, picker preview, ...
- ~small interface + impl cost. mostly a protocol change.
- placement will be handled by extmarks or floating windows.
- no builtin codec, not going to vendor a jpeg library.

the vim.ui.img API for displaying images is now merged to @Neovim master. the result is a nice simple interface, despite a lot of pull in the other direction. idk why, but somehow these PRs for new modules always start with the most insanely complex implementations, instead of asking "what are the primitives that we absolutely need", and leaving the rest for later. this PR started with: - support for sixel, iterm2, kitty - new "provider" layer - async support?? - different concepts and "address spaces" for placement vs data and it ended with: -- Create: local id = vim.ui.img.set(…) -- Update: vim.ui.img.set(id, { row = 8, col = 12 }) -- Get: local opts = vim.ui.img.get(id) -- Delete: vim.ui.img.del(id) yeah, an LLM would have been fine (ecstatic!!) with rev1. think about that.

@IroncladDev @btchashpool Tried it and it's okay but I enjoy fzf more, especially for switching buffers ands using it outside nvim.
English
@typedrifter @btchashpool the way it integrates with the files you've changed in git, and how it scores your searches based on frequency is really nice
English
thinking about switching to a configurable terminal based ide do you have any suggestions @IroncladDev?

@programmer_dex @bunjavascript C'mon maybe you would rather have Angular ?
English
@typedrifter @bunjavascript Please anything but react.

@IroncladDev Lua is the n1 thing I missed when switching from AwesomeWM to MangoWM + Waybar.
English
I would be a lot happier if lua existed in the place of javascript for browser stuff

@privacyint Can you explain to an European dude why voter Id would exclude lgbt+ people ? I understand why biometric is bad for various reasons, but what is wrong with just IDs ? Isnt voting without ID greatly anti Democratic and leading to fraud or manipulations ?
English
Voter ID requirements and the use of biometric tech to authenticate voters can violate voter privacy and lead to exclusion for LGBTQ+, ethnic and religious minority voters, voters living with disabilities, and those with lower socio-economic status.
English
The increasingly prominent role of data and tech in the election process can affect the right to privacy and lead to a chilling of political participation, particularly for minoritised groups.
