Regarding the point of Lepiter vs Org I gave GT another go after I posted my comment and I realized that with the power of "adornments" (which you've mentioned) and so on Lepiter can be more flexible than Org files in a way (though the HTML export seems to ignore outlines currently). If I understood correctly there's nothing preventing you from mixing blocks of Markdown and Org (if Org was implemented) with other custom made blocks (like a snippet of code, chart or view of a GitHub repo). In that regard Lepiter (and GT by extension) seems immensely powerful even if I can't summon spell-checking willy-nilly like I can in Emacs regardless of org-mode or dart-mode for example.

Also there seem to be official examples which I didn't see last time that hint about the possibility of implementing text editors and potentially code editors with LSP integration.

Nobody even addressed the other issue you expressed about uncomprehensible code being fine for linters as long as it conforms to the style guide or low-hanging fruit of "don't use this deprecated method". Who knows, maybe soon enough someone will make a dev tool which runs per file, acknowledges your clever little piece of code and then yells at you that nowadays programming is a team sport called software engineering.

Personally it saddens me that I must agree with the other commenters even if I see where you're coming from. The mass produced, assembly-line with snazzy pipelines took over from the workshop in a wood shed style approach and code linters among other dev tools slot in much better in the former type of workflows than the latter. On one hand I want to be trusted to format my own code according to my intentions but it seems the majority has decided that this is a waste of time, needless bikeshedding and so on. I've begrudgingly gave in for the sake of collaboration which is more important to me in the grand scheme of things.

I guess the upside remains we're still free to do as we please on our own projects. Now to find similar thinking people huddling around Sublime Text shunning linters is not gonna be a cakewalk these days.

Please correct me if I'm wrong and things changed in the meantime. I really want GToolkit to be a complete IDE.

Until then I'll wistfully watch from the sidelines, dipping my toe in from time to time.

Also one thing that intrigues me about Kakoune is the possibility of writing CLI utils in whatever language and then calling them from Kakoune. The same can be done from Emacs but generally you'd go for Elisp instead.

I've also found I miss fancier text decoration like subscripts, bold, italics, underline and mixing monospace with another font when not using Emacs.

I really hope more people will play around with iroh and build stuff especially because in the last year some things have been renamed in the API to be more clear and other stuff has been simplified e.g. see this blog post https://www.iroh.computer/blog/iroh-0-94-0-the-endpoint-take...

On one hand I kinda miss doing stuff like that and would like a RES for Hacker News but on the other hand I feel like cyber stalking is out of fashion these days.

I must be honestly missing some key piece of workflow otherwise I don't know why it would run so slow for other people on better hardware? Granted I'm taking care to tell Claude to not exhaust CPU cores and make sure to not trigger OOM errors, akin to "make no mistakes pls".

All that is to say that I'm glad there's another way to get Rust on mobile aside from stuff like flutter_rust_bridge.

When I write comments on here I tend to spend upwards of 15 minutes to draft and reformulate my comments. Sometimes double-checking what I'm about to say (sometimes not thoroughly enough as some of my recent comments show) and I was wondering if you have a similar experience in that regard or do you just manage to fire off a comment in a stream of thought fashion from start to end?

Also there's a spectrum from Gmail to Fastmail to AWS SES to Wireguard on a VPS that's tunneling to a server running at home. And when the people from both extremes of the spectrum interact they look at each other as if they're from other planets.

It's the same for Auth stuff I believe, almost a decade of generic advice like "don't roll your own auth" has lead some people to file it into a tidy corner of their mind labelled "DON'T TOUCH" so most people end up gawking and staring in awe when someone does so and lose all nuance along the way. To be clear I'm advocating for learning how stuff works and playing around with it (time permitting) instead of simply delegating it to the technical equivalent of Higher Powers in perpetuity.

I also saw you addressed in your blog post the growing market for refurbished phones and in the last year or so I've noticed a similar thing in Romania where a e-commerce giant is involved with a company that refurbishes and resells old user devices to try and corner a big piece of the pre-owned (second-hand) market where previously you'd be stuck hunting for good deals on the national Craigslist equivalent or searching for small-ish repair shops that sold refurbished devices.
