Pardon my denseness, but is this sarcasm? Since that is a TeX snippet.

Why would a RegEx start with a $?

I use my digital journal to document my thoughts on games that I have played or are next in the pipeline. The notes grow organically as my thoughts form with each gameplay.

I have been journaling since 2019. It was born out of the need to manage my tasks and thoughts at work. But then it was helpful enough to start doing it for all the aspects of my life.

Started out with a simple notepad lying around at my office. Moved to Obsidian and now Emacs’ Org-Mode.

But I still use a nice notebook for journaling when I am not around my machine or when I want to jot something urgently. I digitise it later, if necessary.

In fact, I prefer using pen and paper over my machine (which has a very, very comfortable and enjoyable keyboard), as I find it more personal, private and deliberate.

Regardless of whether it is truly superior (it isn't, but neither is Cursor, if you think about it), it is actually more tedious to “cut and paste” the “source code file” and then paste back the output.

It is far simpler to just initiate a chat within Cursor, allowing it to identify all the files necessary for context alongside the one being viewed.

Thank you for discovering this, and creating awareness around it.

Seems like a genuine miss, contrary to what the comments here would have one believe, given that the compose file (and rest of the docs) were mostly derived from whatever worked for the developers themselves.

I had to read more than once to realise it is not a game about WinRAR.

Having said that, all the best with the development, and may the game find love and success. :-)

Perhaps they aren’t crying over their mistake, and don’t like children in general?

I don't know how you arrived at this based on what @TheFeatureCreature@lemmy.ca was saying.

Connection strength is a network/infrastructure problem while what was being said in the original comment is an application/usage one.

The other part of your statement can be solved using a search engine which restricts itself to just searches and not distract itself with ads and AI. But evidently such a product is hard to build in today's world.

I wasn’t aware you are the editor/owner of the website too. Thank you for creating it. I have added it to my reading list.

Hope it isn’t taken down soon? If so, I will archive it locally.

As for your new blog, all the best. :-)

Interesting website, even though it has stopped.

The previous post on the website was quite a precursor in hindsight.

A perfect origin story of a villain.

Jeremy then goes on a crime spree, but he was caught early on because he is a snail… with a left-coiled shell. The shell prints at the crime scenes helped narrow it down to him instantly.

Vim was my primary tool of development for over a decade, and I used Obsidian for about 3 years. However, in early 2024, I tried out Emacs and never looked back.

I find it functionally equivalent to Vim albeit perceivably slower, and Org-mode (+Denote) is far superior than Markdown and Obsidian with its slew of plugins.

Migrating my 3 years worth of notes was a pain since I was using Obsidian's variant of Markdown syntax to link other notes. In the end I gave up trying to convert those notes, and used them alongside my new Org-mode notes, thanks to Denote's interoperability.

In fact, Denote's naming philosophy is so powerful yet simple that I started using it for all documents and downloads.

I had not thought of this serving as an entry or a trial for new customers. It makes a lot of sense. Thank you.

I can rationalise holding off on buying a new phone or furniture until a sale. But for groceries?

One either needs groceries or they do not.

Perhaps, there are some categories of groceries that one may not buy unless there is a good occasion but might buy them if there is a good deal on it?

Or maybe, one may buy the pricier variety like “organic” groceries during such sales?

The article indicates this was for their Prime Day event.

Are people really waiting for an annual event to buy their groceries? Or are the Fresh delivery personnel reassigned to other verticals for the event's duration?

Former is shocking and borderline dystopian. Latter is just poor planning and resourcing.

Safe: Use text expansion for trivial yet long texts like your emails, addresses, etc. to almost eliminate errors in those texts. Espanso is something I use on Linux Mint, while macOS supports text expansion natively. I am yet to find something that fills the gap on NetBSD, but I almost exclusively use emacs on those machines, which has native support for snippets.

Unsafe: Remove USB drive without ejecting it. :P

Contrived yet neat: With special software (BetterTouchTool on macOS) or keyboard firmware (QMK and ZMK, which is what I use), one can use Spacebar as a layer key (SpaceFn, as it makes Spacebar behave as a Fn key) to unlock neat shortcuts like navigating using HJKL, add macros, remap hard to reach keys on to the home row, etc. There are other things that can be done such as one-shot modifiers which make typing less straining.

P.S. The snark in the comments here is surprising. Everyone starts somewhere. Let us be welcoming.

Which country, if you don’t mind telling?

Alternatively, is that a decision made by your country’s people/government? Or did Amazon just not want to operate there?

Very inspiring, if it is the former.

Oh. I only feel enlightened about anus.

I am clueless as to what it is doing in a medieval combat manual.

The most I can rationalise is that the author had a bout of frustration, and the manual was the only outlet for their thoughts.

Thank you for enlightening me.
