I have mixed feelings about the JSR requirement for explicit typing. Other than that, it is pretty great!

Curious what the issue you were running into was? I’ve been using stow for my dotfiles for at least 8 years now and have been loving it the whole time.

Using the GNU stow utility makes this super easy. It even has a --dotfiles flag so you can author your dotfiles as dot-zshrc and when the utility symlinks it, it will be .zshrc. Makes it nice so your source files are not hidden but the actual dotfiles are (as expected).

You should check out mise (https://github.com/jdx/mise), it is very similar to ASDF (multi langs) but written in Rust instead of Bash, and doesnt use the shim technique that ASDF does. My shell startup went from a couple hundred ms to a couple dozen ms.

For your blog, jquery is totally fine and reasonable. Jquery for a web application? That is going to be way more of a headache. It all depends on what you’re trying to accomplish.

Curious what you think makes it better than other examples out there? How is it different than Active Record or Prisma?

As far as I can tell, Firefox Focus has no tab support, which means it is a non-starter. How can you use it as a browser if it has no tabbing?

This is most likely going to be the push I need to get me over to Playwright. I really like the Cypress API, particularly `cy.intercept`, compared to some of the Playwright equivalents. I'm sure that is just because I am used to Cypress now, and eventually I'll feel the same about Playwright.

Also dollars. Don’t forget about the dollars.

I cringe every time I see the Sherwin Williams logo. It is a bucket of paint being dumped on the earth. Imagine if BPs logo was just an oil spill
