- poetril parentI went down the same path last week, and found Zigbook to be a very poor resource for learning. +1 for ziglings, that's been my favorite so far
- I live in a city that has had Waymo's (via Uber) for a while now and I have done a complete 180 on them. Not only are they usually cheaper than a traditional Uber, but they drive far more defensively, and don't come with the social baggage associated with a traditional Uber either (tipping, small talk).
- Fossabot[0] is also the name of an established Twitch/YouTube chat bot.

- Kagi has been one of the biggest value adds to my online life in a long time. Paying for the Kagi ultimate plans gets me access to the latest LLM models, and an incredible customizable search engine with a large focus on privacy. The Orion browser has been my favorite to use on iOS, I’m not sure if I’d use the desktop version because of its web kit base. But I’m glad to see it’s moving forward.
- It is workflow dependent for sure. I used to use aliased commands (still do sometimes), but I find that the muscle memory of lg (opens lazygit tui) -> a (git add -A) -> c (git commit -m "..." -> enter to be easier for me than typing each alias out. I like the lack of nested menus, everything is available via the top layer of the tui and most command are a single hotkey away.
- LazyGit is one of my favorite pieces of software. I use it everyday, I love how seamlessly it fits into my work flow. The fact that it outputs all of its commands has helped me form a deeper understanding of git and what it’s doing under the hood. Not to mention it saves a TON of time.
- I actually have a very glue and duck taped solution for this. But I'd love if there way a tool to auto expand the "Load more..." button present in PRs with lots of conversations/commits.
Everytime I refresh the page on a large PR I have to click through 10-12 "Load more" buttons before I can have the whole picture.
- I had tried and failed multiple times to start using Vim (after using Vim binds for a while), and actually failed the transition right before my 6 month stint with Zed. It was actually this post[0] from the creator of Gleam [1] that brought LazyVim to my attention. I made a handle full of modifications, removing certain plugins and adding others. I'm very happy with the result. Its been two weeks of using it at both work and home productively.
- I’m actually in the opposite camp, I had left VSCode for Zed about 6 months ago and used it exclusively at work/personal projects. I’ve customized it extensively, and loved its approach to Vim integration. But in the last two weeks I’ve made the switch to Neovim (using a customized LazyVim [0] setup). I really like Zed but as others have pointed out they are not prioritizing features around REPL’s, AI, and collaboration while many core features are lacking. Vim Cut/Copy and paste being bugged, and html tags not closing drove me crazy over time.
I think Zed is wonderful, and would perhaps go back to it after it matures a bit. For what’s its worth the friction going from Zed -> Neo vim was quite seamless, and I’d expect going the other way would as well.
- It comes down to using the vim extension and making use of the context it adds when setting key binds. Both in settings and keybind json files you set commands for certain vim modes, or bind native VSCode commands to your leader. Zed does almost the same but with no defined leader key so you just have to be more specific about the command and the context they are executed in.
- I've kept my neovim config, vscode, and zed configs in parity for a while now. To the point that the keybinds and behaviors are the same (or as simliar as they can be) across all three. In my personal experience zed is eating into the time I use vscode, but not really touching neovim as much. It really has come a long way, and I'm excited I'll be able to use it on my Linux machine without having to jump through hoops.
