Isn't that what they predominantly use? I don't think I've ever seen an LLM use an em-dash without spaces. I've never seen an en-dash with spaces, but have seen them in ranges.

I checked a message from my last chat with Claude

> Noted for this conversation — though worth flagging

and that's an em-dash (unicode 0x2014)

I right click the volume icon in Windows, select "Volume Mixer", and it gives me per-app mixing. Which I guess is an extra click, as with eartrumpet you can access the mixer with a single left click on the icon.

What makes that nicer than the built in volume mixer?

Yeah, not a fan of having to plug my phone in for detection.... That page should at least include a link here: https://doc.e.foundation/devices

If not anything else, I guess it could be added :) Makes me wonder though if that's a limitation of text boxes in Windows (so a translation will need to be made during loading/saving).

I use that approach. I also make sure to not set the [user] section in my main config (and only in the included files). That way if I'm operating outside of one of my user directories git commit fails due to having no user details.

It's a common enough issue with go that they wrote a faq on it too: https://go.dev/doc/faq#virus

I've been wondering that myself. The descriptions seem to indicate that fully dragged to the left is liftkit, but my first assumption was that would be fully dragged to the right.

This is how I've observed it: Catfriend1 has long been the owner of syncthing-fork on android, which was fork of the official client syncthing-android. It had extra features around Android that were lacking in the official client (e.g sync windows to reduce battery usage).

When google locked down on file apis a year or so ago, the official syncthing-android pulled out of google play, but syncthing-fork stuck around in fdroid as the fork was for personal purposes, and they were using fdroid for distribution in the first place.

This change in ownership is new to me, but I'm also not surprised it happened as syncthing-fork was always a personal project.

How does the Nobel Peace Prize figure into this? I seem to be on the other side that didn't hear about the award. Which is not surprising as I don't follow it, but also I haven't worked out query terms to connect it with OBR.

Well, I guess Avalonia can solve 4 at least as you can negate a binding[1]. Good news for me as I recently started an Avalonia project, and thought you did still need an InvertedBoolConverter.

This project shows that git messages aren't just for other people as it's an attempt to make terrible messages usable for the person who wrote the code in the first place.

Oh, interesting.

The Windhawk Start Menu Style[1] uses XAML to modify the Start Menu, and I doubt that they are translating XAML to React

If it makes a difference: it's an en dash used in the readme.

I've been wondering why LLMs seem to prefer the em dash over en dash as I feel like en (or hyphen) is used more frequently in modern text.

It's also a rabbit :)

[A-z] though is a fun one though as it includes a few extra symbols between upper and lowercase.

Does cancer progress that fast?

Windhawk[1] has some plugins for styling (using XAML). I don't really style anything apart from removing the "Recommended" section from the start menu, so I'm not sure how fast styles get applied.

Interesting; never considered anchoring on the paragraph boundaries. I suspect you are right in that I use line shapes to navigate, as I also treat capitals as landmarks to bounce around. Once had a visual migraine where I could only detect the current line (above and below just didn't exist), and it forced my reading speed to a crawl.

Why would shorter lines be regular? I use hn with `max-width: 60rem;`, and I get a ragged right (which I very much prefer over justification), while also getting a line length easier for my eyes to follow.

Edit: seems like it was taken down months ago due to other itch policies (devs aren't hosting playable files on itch).

I think people should be responsible for the litter of their own tools. If their commits have include any litter it should be rejected as they clearly aren't paying attention. The local gitignore is for project specific files.

I think I will give it a go. Just not immediately, as I don't have the headspace for that prepped.

They're probably talking about Mouthwashing which was announced to be delisted from itch (not steam though) today [^1]. Not played the game, only read synopsis, but it's a horror game instigated by a rape. As far as I know, the rapist is not meant to be a sympathetic character.
