My strategy to survive the generative AI era as an indie developer
2024-04-26 Takuya Matsuyama Blog #tech
Learning, coding, and creating can often be solitary pursuits. We all need something to motivate and encourage us through the loneliness and lethargy, to start and continue working.
While AI is becoming increasingly proficient in handling functional aspects, dealing with emotional aspects is still a long way off, given their complexity, which even humans struggle to manage.
I always make sure to subtly incorporate air between the body and the clothing. In other words, there is a 'space' in my clothes. It's like the space you find 'between the lines' in a written text. Unfortunately, this aesthetic of space is unique to Japan. It might be an aesthetic we should take pride in. ---- Yohji Yamamoto
Don't Use Homebrew
2024-05-14 sainnhe Blog #tech #macos
Apple tries every effort to protect your mac, including strict directory permissions, firewalls and many other privacy policies like asking for folder access permissions when a new app wants to access a folder. But homebrew makes your mac not as secure as it should be, a huge amount of components on your mac are not well protected.
VSCode is an MIT licensed open source code editor developed by microsoft, right? But actually the stuff you built from source and that you downloaded from the official website are completely two different things, the official binary releases are licensed under a non-FLOSS (Free and Libre and Open Source Software) license and contains telemetry/tracking.
What’s worse is that the cask repository is enabled by default, newbies who think the apps they installed is FLOSS and trustworthy may actually install an app bundled with telemetry/tracking, and even trojan horse that tries to hack your mac in the way we mentioned in the previous part.
From me: As a computer science student, I think the awareness of privacy and security is very important. But homebrew is really convenient and useful for me. It's a trade-off between efficiency and security.
Why I Learned Vim
2024-08-24 Steve Simkins Blog #tech #vim
The goal of this post is not to convince you that you should learn Vim, but show you why I personally use it and why I think thousands of other developers enjoy it as well. In the end you should use what works best for you, but also keep an open mind to the possibilities.
A Terminal Based Workflow
2024-08-24 Steve Simkins Blog #tech #workflow
This is the flexibility of a terminal based workflow that is hard to replicate on something like VSCode or Zed. It’s not even an editor issue in my opinion: it’s a development environment issue.
In my previous post about learning Vim, I posed the question if you yourself should learn it. Again I think that’s perhaps the wrong question. Instead you should ask yourself “How well do I know my development environment?” If you’re happy with running the basic tools in your terminal and switching back and forth between a terminal window and VSCode that’s fine, do what works best for you.
