Treesitter is fantastic. It has builtin support in nvim, and there are a lot of plugins that make use of it.

My favorite is nvim-treesitter-textobjects which gives you dozens of new targets for vim motions, such as a function call or the condition of a loop.

I use Brave, and for me it's really just the least bad option.

Firefox-based browsers do not support macOS automation (AppleScript/JXA). Safari lacks features/extensions. Orion/Vivaldi had bugs any time I tried them.

From the Chrimium-based browsers I tried, Brave blocks ads, supports PWAs, the crypto stuff can be turned off, and is stable. Brave does not excite me, but it's good enough.

Plain and simple: It's an AI-enhanced "I'm feeling lucky".

As someone who uses the "I'm feeling lucky" regularly, this is definitely an improvement.

Love rss, but the upside of not having an algorithm determine your content consumption quickly results in a fire hose of content.

Sadly, filtering features seem to be only available for paid subscriptions of online services, or for self-hosted solutions. Or are there solutions I am not aware of?

- native browser bookmarks: things I visit regularly and want to access quickly, like the website of my bank. - read-later-links: I send it to my todo app, and read it the next day or delete it. No piling off links I never read. - topic-specific links like "tool to extract tables from PDFs" go into my note taking system (in my case Obsidian), where I can also write notes on the links properly

Oh thx, must have missed that. Guess at least that saves me some time to switch to the newer API in the future.

API is noticeably slower for me, sometimes up to 10x slower.

Upon some digging, it seems that part of the slowdown is due to the gpt-5 models by default doing some reasoning (reasoning effort "medium"), even for the nano or mini model. Setting the reasoning effort to "minimal" improves the speed a lot.

However, to be able to set the reasoning effort you have to switch to the new Response API, which wasn't a lot of work, but more than just changing a URL.

I've only used reflog really to look up a hash and reset back to it. Is there anything else about it one should learn?

Is it possible to trigger the expander differently?

I already have zsh-magic-dashboard running on empty enter.

Landline phone. Never used it, the only thing I got there was spam, marketing or survey calls. Twitter for reasons that probably do not need explaining.

If low-tech counts: Contacts. They are just so much hassle compared to glasses, the imagined better looks are not worth it.

Read-later services. Just another pile of things to manage. If I really need to read something, I add it to my todo app.

I wrote a small shell function that does exactly that. Uses gh and yq (you can replace the yq part with jq) https://github.com/chrisgrieser/.config/blob/main/zsh/config...

A formatter with little to no configuration, similar to black.

A linter what the reasoning for all rules is well explained, similar to shellcheck or eslint.

Both ideally integrated in an LSP, which also has all the common features of a modern LSP.

I love the minimalistic approach of ascii charts:

  Apples         xxxxxxxxxxxxx------- 100
  Bananas        xxxxxxxxxx----------  75
  Oranges        xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 150
  Grapes         xxx-----------------  25
  Pineapples     x-------------------  10
  Watermelons    xxxxxx--------------  50

From the article:

> "A lot of students who take philosophy classes, especially if they're not majors, don't really know what philosophy is," she said. "So I like to get an idea of what their expectations are so I can know how to respond to them." Sounds very reasonable to me.

Looks nice, residuals the merging is something I haven't seen in other clipboard managers.

I think my main question is why I should use a browser-scoped clipboard manager over a global, system wide clipboard manager (that allows me to filter by application).

I sometimes use sounds as opposed to print statements when debugging automations or certain UI behavior, e.g. to indicate whether a certain if-condition was triggered or not.

The advantage over normal print debugging is that you get immediate feedback, and do not need to switch to a console. This is also useful when it comes to debugging split second timings (custom window movement scripts).
