+1 for zsh-autosuggestions. It is the most important plugin I use because all I have to do is remember the first 2 characters of a command to get the suggestion and autofill it on the command line. It saves so much time and frees up space in my head for more important things to remember.

As a Rustacean currently learning Elixir, I found myself wanting this exact functionality. Kudos for making this, I'll definitely use it!

Immersion. The fastest way to get through the "practice hump" is to accept the dip in productivity and keep learning. No turning back to your old method. The same applied when I learned the Dvorak keyboard layout, and I presume the same applies for language learning among other examples.

For vim specifically, I think mode changes are the most important to learn first. Past that, it's building muscle memory for all the keybinds (and actually discovering the keybinds).

Nice job! From the video it looks like many of the pages share the same buttons. I'm curious how you detect which page is open to operate the corresponding circuit?

I'm most interested in security and embedded systems. I love learning and am happy to do so on the job.

Looking for part time remote work, preferably in systems / backend / CLI environment. I very much enjoy working on open source projects, security, hardware, and tooling. I'm adaptible, learn pretty quickly, and I am easy going.

Does anyone have a good resource on writing compiled languages? I'd like to join this Jam but I don't know where to start.

I agree. The process of programming involves a lot of "head hitting the wall." Having a goal helps you stay motivated when running into such tedious issues.

All the parkour I do is at ground level (no rooftops), but even still running and jumping at walls can be dangerous if you slip. All of my injuries since starting 7 months ago have come from slipping on a thin landing (like a rail) and banging my shins on it.

That being said, the great thing about parkour is there are no rules. You can practice only at indoor gyms if you like, or do slower movements. Personally, all the jumps I attempt I'm 95% certain I can do them.

So, yes, it can be dangerous, but at the end of the day it's your choice in how you practice. Feel free to e-mail me if you want to chat more :)

Parkour.

It's great physical exercise, I get to spend time outside, set challenges / gradually achieve them, and express my creativity through movement.
