Absolutely nothing for most! I just really dread lisp and extending my editor shouldn’t feel so dreadful.

But, I’ll never find a replacement, I’m forever trapped ((((()))))) send help

Sadly you have to use VSCode. The closest editor that’s come to replacing emacs for me is Zed. But still, zed hasn’t won me over because their git solution is still not as good as magit

I’m almost locked into emacs because of magit lol

Teslas have always been objectively bad cars. Inconsistent panel gaps, bad paint from the factory, poor build quality, etc. The car folks have always known this. It’s taken elons politics for tech folks to realize.

This is awesome! I'm really excited about this since this is the underpinning of Zed. I figured out quickly when replicating ChatGPTs macOS apps "work with" feature that Zed had zero accessibility tree.

Great news, just in time Global Accessibility Awareness Day tomorrow (May 15th)

Edit: I'm totally wrong about Zed using GTK. They built their own: https://www.gpui.rs/ Still a win for all GTK apps!

The first acquisition I was apart of wasn’t too bad! But we were still culturally very different. So after 2 years and properly transitioning things, I bounced to another start up.

Walking into something like that is tough because the two teams sort of don’t like each other and you’re really “neither”. I’d want to make sure I was interviewed by both teams

I was a very early employee at the other two start ups that were acquired and even with equity it was not worth it. After all the class A shares were paid out, the rest of us got little.

I mean, hindsight 20/20 here, but I would have loved the theoretical money @ 1 billion. But those are so rare and my experience in the past 15 years hasn’t matched those unicorns.

Basically I’ve come to the conclusion unless you have serious equity or you’re a founder, acquisition suck. You’re the one doing the work making these two companies come together, while the founders usually bounce or are stripped of any real power to change things.

I applied to neon last week and then the news broke about the acquisition. They rejected it this morning — I have never been happier to receive a rejection to an application.

This would’ve been three acquisitions straight for me and… I’m okay, they’re awful. I just want stability.

Congrats to the neon team! I use and love neon. Really hope this doesn’t change them too much.

No, I 100% disagree. You just need to manage the focus yourself when you do disable the button.

Take comfort in one thing: you’re rebuilding one of the most popular and prolific platforms for hot rodders in the last 20 years. You can probably throw a rock and hit someone who can legitimately help you, haha.

Rebuilding a junkyard ls (okay yours isn’t a 5.3 ) is like the rite of passage

Thank GOD. Please stop moving here then. And if you hate it, leave and take that annoying attitude with you.

I can’t imagine anything worse for the world than an AI trained on whatever Twitter users are tweeting.

Amazon CEO doesn’t realize they’ll lose out on talent and miss out on talent.

I’ll never work in office again unless I need to work with machines or hardware I don’t have access to at home.

I liked fig, but I got rid of it when I saw that email.

Congrats to the team on the sale! Sadly, seems like it’s dead now. Happy they got paid :)

It’s literally the reason that keeps me in emacs, honestly.

I don’t believe so. We usually recommend spacemacs for that. (They do an excellent job with their config)

Hi forvelin! I'm one of the devs that helped create frontmacs. This is a great idea and something I generally like doing. I do it on my own emacs config: https://github.com/Robdel12/.emacs.d

Judging from the comments we didn't do a very good job at messaging that while this is a starter pack, it's also meant for you to build on top of and customize. My config does not use the default theme and tweaks a couple of settings.

We intended frontmacs to be something _like_ prelude but make updating the core packages easier (rather than pulling in the changes from upstream & solving merge conflicts). We wanted nice defaults that you could then build on top of.

Oh yeah, my dad pays $500 a year in property taxes for a house on a creek with gulf access. Pretty cheap! But the con is, there's no tech work around. That's the reason I ended up leaving.

Plus I wanted a life change. And sticking around the kids I went to high school with wasn't going to provide that :P

Question: does this create accessible PDFs? That would be a really nice _possible_ work around for screen reader users having issues with a website.

Just stay away from the numbers matching classics and I'm cool with this.

Grew up on SWFL. You can tell when you enter into cape coral because the trees disappear and you start seeing empty fields with a couple of houses on top of mounds.

I don't miss SWFL.

Honestly chrome sticks around because: 1. it's not bad 2. CMD + Shift + C opens the dev tools and allows you to select DOM nodes. I use that religiously...

So you're offloading the cost onto people who already can't afford much.

I'm sure they do. Do you think most of iOS 11 users do? I'm willing to bet they don't.

After using MS Teams for a couple months.. I think they have a long ways to go to.

This great! I'm sad that _none_ of these components were built with accessibility in mind.

Foundation. Main reason being Foundation is built on SCSS and bootstrap is built on LESS.
