@kapiti_coaster Thanks, I will be making a submission against the bill.

Have you done your written submission on the Principles of the Treaty of Waitangi Bill? You do it online. Your first sentence is: I oppose the Principles of the Treaty of Waitangi Bill. Submissions close Tuesday. Here is the link for you to do it online: parliament.nz/en/pb/sc/make-…

@ajthompson13 @Joe_Trinder Let me explain it in simple terms for you then. The government has induced a recession. This has resulted in a loss of investor confidence and we are running a trade deficit. Interest rates are reduced. All leading to a lower value of the NZD against a basket of currencies

@Joe_Trinder When I read your tweet I realise tit are a novice both monetary and fiscal policy & I can’t be bothered educating you. Sounds harsh but I’m just being g honest

The exchange rate is the worst I’ve seen in decades. Nicola Willis incompetence is astounding, the blame labour alibi’s, but is willing to take credit for any raise in the OCR combined with an austerity budget that disrupts a delicate economic ecosystem. Willis a new broom trying to sweep is causing economic vandalism, that will take decades to recover from if we can before becoming a banana republic. Offering tax breaks to the real estate industry was a tragic mistake she needed to avoid making drastic sweeping changes and allow the economy to adapt after an election. But she went ahead rip shit and bust and scared every CFO in the country creating a fear of spending mentality. If you like being forced to relocate to Australia to survive vote for Nicola to cook the books at the next elections.

@Joe_Trinder No - know (Swype typo)

@Joe_Trinder Joe, pakeha here and part of the quiet majority of pakeha who fully agree with you - keep up the good fight and no you are supported by many kiwis regardless of race affiliation Ngā mihi

Allow me to correct this disinformation every treaty settlement in history is equivalent to the defence budget for a single year. Redress for land theft is equivalent to 2% of the value of stolen Real Estate. Coloniser fragility is rampant here on anonymous X accounts because at the end of the day they know they’re telling porkies.

@Joe_Trinder Joe, My guess, but I like to think a lot of the negative guilt responses you get are just nasty bots from some right wing orgs. Real people surely wouldn't waste that much time being nasty.

@hcetamd @Hey_ross @zestular Choose - code

@hcetamd @Hey_ross @zestular Having written scripts for both Google sheets is every bit as extensible - and fun to choose against. Some of your assumptions are wrong

@LordPrkr Good choice of topic - and nicely presented through. Both dbmate and sqlc are something I have wanted to use for my new project - so your tute timing (and quality) was perfect - thanks!

I finally made a YouTube video after 11 months of procrastination! 🥳 youtube.com/watch?v=-7f1_h… forcing myself to get in front of the camera, impart my knowledge, and share the final product no matter what. goal: turn it into a habit and improve with practice⚡️

@AfricanHub_ thank you for sharing - very sad to see humanity proving just how bad we can be. This is the first time I have heard of this history. I would like to watch the documentary - does anyone know who presenting it or what the name of the documentary is?

Watch this before it gets taken down The atrocities committed by the British in Kenya that are hidden from the public Your comments on this

@ChShersh I don't agree with this take. Although I would say it is an OS better suited (and tooled) for developers. Over the last four years, it has been a great experience for me. However, the behaviour of those trying to manage/govern the project has been depressing/oppressive at times.

The only sane way to use Linux is NixOS. Unfortunately, if you’re not 15 years old, and have some responsibilities in your life, it’s too late for you. You won’t have enough time and capacity to learn Nix.

@_davideast Congratulations on the release - it looks great. I am a big fan of devenv.sh, I see some similarities. I would love it if you could advocate for Nix at Google - there have been funding issues in the last few years.

package.json but for your entire dev environment. Once you start configuring your setup like this, you won't want to go back. Let me break down how Nix works in Project IDX

@ArrowtownLyn @canderlodge Your numbers are wrong - and let's not forget National borrowed for their promised 'balanced budget' (and they didn't have a global economy on its knees to deal with). - press-files.anu.edu.au/downloads/pres… - tradingeconomics.com/new-zealand/go…

@canderlodge As you are a Labour party supporter, how do you justify the National debt going from 5 Billion to over $100 billion in 6 years! Would be interested in your opinion.

Anyone else just whipping through the tweets & hitting like on virtually every one? There's just so much wrong with this awful govt, it's PM, ministers & policies. I don't think anybody could have predicted that they would be THIS bad. It's now hard to find anyone without a gripe

@charlieholtz Good luck with the launch - it looks great. Wish you the best of luck. I am really interested to see how it works with deepseek coder v2 as a called LLM

coding is really different now

@DynabookANZ Hi, it seems there is a recall on a lot of old power adapters for dynabook. I notice the phone number and recall page for Australia & NZ is broken. Hoping you can escalate it. support.dynabook.com/axx2024

We are Dynabook. We are a dynamic, entrepreneurial new business, built on the foundations of our wonderful Toshiba heritage. We've been delivering innovations and world-firsts since 1985 - and we're only just getting started 🔥 anz.dynabook.com

@domenkozar Listened today. I am sorry to hear the foundation work was painful at times. Thanks for sharing your experiences - inspirational! I love all the contributions you and the team have made to make NixOS a better place. You have really made a difference for us in the community! TY!!!

Here's a podcast about all the Nix things I've observed in the last 10 years fulltimenix.com/episodes/domen…

@Deor Neovim and vs code are both good, but I have been gravating more and more towards helix - it is just so nice. Also using codeium more that vs code now - kind of the same, but works nicer with extensions for NixOS. Check out helix if you have time.

switched from using vscode for 5y to neovim and the difference in how it feels, productivity, etc, is insane mini thread with my thoughts about it/how i switched also ss of my setup below (kitty terminal)

@domenkozar Yep, all of them

Three generations of Nix developers, which one are you?

@Grady_Booch Nonsense wrapped up to sound like learned wisdom. You aren't directing, reviewing and redirecting what is produced - or giving good requirements if you are having these kinds of concerns. Maybe set up your environment better?

@jtregunna @AstraKernel Likewise, tiling managers solve things for me locally. If I am remote I might use tmux as well if I need to persist a long running shell - just in case I lose the connection.

As silly as it sounds, I don't use tmux much anymore. I usually lay out 4 terminals side by side, and cmd+left/right to switch between them. Faster than C-b left/right/up/down in practice. I can't always keep tracn of what number a pane is, and never got into that habit of laying them out the same. But 49" monitor, so lots of horizontal space. Each term if in vi, has about 130 characters of horizontal space

I have used 1. Kitty + Tmux 2. Alacritty + Zellij 1st is my favorite I just tried : Alacritty + Tmux I feel it's blazingly faster than previous combinatios. I'm not sure whether my mind is playing illusion 🤔
