I had no idea hints existed and that I needed them so badly.

If anyone is interested, I run zellij in my ghostty, and I let AI write a zellij hints plugin. It works ok. https://github.com/viktomas/zellij-hints

I love Ghostty. But I miss out on lots of its features because I use zellij exclusively to work with agents. This sounds exciting and I hope they'll choose some cliff oss license like gitbutler does

modernc is the name of the GitHub fork (identical repo) of the same project. This is machine translated, not hand written.

I like the moral part of Stoicism a lot, and even though the original texts are slightly morbid, the core idea makes perfect logical sense. You can't fully control things outside of your mind, and when you try to control them, you suffer (e.g. you don't want to get sick, but you will, you don't want to get old , but you will)

What I struggled with was applying this "logical understanding" to my day-to-day life. In other words, the recommended practice of morning and evening meditation was always too early and too late, respectively. I needed to have tools to use in the difficult moments directly.

I recently discovered Acceptance Commitment Therapy - It's an interesting mix of mindfulness and living in accordance with your values. If you also struggle to bring the stoic teachings to your minute-by-minute life, give the book "ACT made simple" a try.

There are differences.. Stoic teaching would have you analyse the thought (impression) and discard it as something out of your control. Whilst ACT will have you accept that the thought exists, but not identify with it. Stoics give you the values (virtues), ACT lets you pick them. But all in all, those two approaches are complementary.

This is fantastic! Thank you for that.

I use fish, but the language change is straightforward https://github.com/viktomas/dotfiles/blob/master/fish/.confi...

I'll use this daily

The riddle has a different variants with hats https://erdos.sdslabs.co/problems/5

Webapp that you can run locally, backed by a folder with plain Markdown files. Uses code mirror as WYSIWYG monospace editor.

I use the scrollback buffer export to a temporary file (CMD+SHIFT+J), you can then open the file in any editor.

So my workflow is to type in `vim` and then press `CMD+SHIFT+J` and Enter

> Plus, your phone comes with 7 years of OS and security updates.

Way to go, the 7 years of updates was the reason I bought my Pixel 8 Pro

It seems like Google from all the people who responded in this thread :)

The OP most likely meant the paid version of JetBrains IDEs

> The "only magnify in place" option is obviously a horrible idea. I don't know about you but my thumb is not transparent.

I think you misunderstood the proposed solution. If you look at the video, the magnification is offset. The improvement is that the cursor is only visible in the magnification.

That's strange, my latest Google Pixel has enough computing power that I could easily do my frontend development on it if I connected screen and keyboard and if the OS supported it.

I wouldn't be keen on writing the code on touchscreen, but I would love to have one small device that I can "dock" when I need to switch to poweruser mode.

> HRT prescribed by a doctor is most likely healthy.

This is a really interesting topic. I've heard Joe Rogan talking about it. I might have to visit private clinic to get my testosterone measured, it's not something that the public healthcare in Europe would be keen on doing without underlying medical condition.

This is something I'll have to do much more research and definitely visit a doctor before taking any hormone supplements. If you remember which resources convinced you about the procedure being useful and relatively safe, please link them :)

Re: Yoga

I've been following Yoga With Adriene (https://www.youtube.com/user/yogawithadriene) for half a year and I was quite happy with the variety of routines. Especially the Move 30 day program (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pmlh6AHFW0E&list=PLui6Eyny-U...). Even though the routines are great, her style didn't quite resonate with me (it's too spiritual/positive for an engineer like me). I installed Down Dog and I'll try that app for a while. Thank you for the recommendation.

> When you’re doing the poses, don’t be afraid to move about a bit and explore your body

I struggle with this, I want to get through the poses as the instructor says and moving around to stretch a bit differently is not something I remember to do unless the instructor explicitly suggests it.

> they’re a waste of time compared to a massage gun

I've never heard of massage gun till today. Is there a specific recovery routine you follow or should I do my research on internet? E.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fvXwAR2e0Vo

> rowing and cycling

This resonates with me, I'll buy rowing machine for a quick cardio at home. Something that I can connect with my garmin fenix watch or my phone so I can try the EXR-like app. When the weather allows it, I'm cycling on my MTB outside.

> FTP training is also firmly established

Would you have some resources for FTP (Functional Threshold Power)? Can I do FTP for rowing or running or is it cycling specific thing?

> it is most likely the running. It is very, very hard on the body, particularly if you are heavy

You are right, it's not easy to hear. I'm doing my best to run only on toes and mainly on soft trails rather than pavement. But I'll look into improving my form. I'll probably rely on online resources rather than coaching. I'm not sure I would find person I would trust in my small town.

I live in a mountain area and running is my favorite outdoor activity, I'll just have to do my best to improve my form to reduce the toll it takes on my body.

Thank you so much rcarr for your thoughtful response it's an overview of the topic that I was looking for. I'll respond to each point in a thread.

The number you read is for dying within the next year. The OP said within a decade.

I find that the ports of older PC RPGs are the best for paying only once and getting the full uninterrupted game.

Knights of the Old Republic I and II are the best IMO.
