If only the wi-fi had worked and the bluesky app had notifications, I'd have seen your recommendations :( oh well... I'll check the slides out later!

Any talks you'd recommend going along to?

see you there!

Anyone I know gonna be at #FOSDEM or #cfgmgmtcamp ?

proposal: net/http/httptest: synctest support · Issue #76608 · golang/go Proposal Details I use the httptest package a lot, and in particular NewServer rather than ResponseRecorder, because it picks up subtle real-world issues that don't appear when not using the entire...

Nice! Maybe I stimulated that by creating github.com/golang/go/is...

Lots of my friends there... :) Enjoy!

Went to order this and found I've had it on pre-order since July 2024! Only another couple of months now... can't wait!

good luck!

Interesting expansion of generics in #golang 👀

Perfect! Exactly the design choices I was after. Thanks for mentioning it. 👌

I remember enjoying Air, but can't remember the first thing about it!

I'd like to know more about this risk, as I'd assumed the risk was similar to visiting an arbitrary URL or clicking on a link on a website you don't necessarily trust (something that's pretty common to do and hard to avoid tbh). Are there security risks that are specific to QR codes themselves?

Still @nickharkaway.com's best IMHO. Although I never re-read it, so it's possible I'll be disappointed when (not if) I do ...

I actually genuinely went back to the beginning immediately after finishing and started again (didn't finish again mind!). Another book this brought to mind: Gone Away World.

Worth saying! I have seen so many utterly worthless, nay negative-worth, unit tests in the past. And testscript itself is still so nice to use - we use it a lot.

If the local indexes are all within ~/.claude, the total size of that directory (as reported by `du -s`) is just 55MB.

I have no idea! Are they all loaded into memory? BTW that memory size is _resident_ memory. Virtual memory use is 77GB!

I don't understand why Claude is such a resource hog when it's not actually doing that much locally. For example, it's currently idle on my machine and it's coming up as using just under 500MB of memory. WTF?!

Nice! I've implemented your "naive approach" in the past but this is much nicer.

great idea. joined!

"Is it too much to expect that a hotel should provide an easily accessible mains power socket within a relatively short distance of the bed?", I think as I delve under my bedside table for the 5th night in a row. #firstworldproblems

Good info, thanks! It would definitely be nice to have a cheat-sheet for this kind of optimisation. Maybe restricted to optimisations that reduce allocations and/or big-O behaviour.

... because naively that's what I'd expect to happen. I wonder if there's a comprehensive list of optimisations like this that we can refer to.

This idiom is interesting. I presume there's some compiler optimisation that says that `append([]byte(nil), make([]byte, n)...)` does not _actually_ copy n bytes from a newly allocated empty slice?

my main reason is unfortunately a "by design" issue that will never be fixed AIUI: no cursor warping. Without that, the editor I use is substantially broken.

I just finished (and really enjoyed) Ken Liu's Dandelion Dynasty series, which probably fits the bill here too.

One of the most frustrating things in the modern age: on an Android phone, having a set of photos selected in Google Photos and wanting to attach them to a specific Facebook reply.

super cool project: direnv done with #cuelang

Some pretty cool work on editor support (LSP) for CUE here. I really need to sort out my LSP acme game now!

I got something working nicely, for me at least.
