I really enjoyed using Pico CSS, but I understand the choice.

Thank you Lucas Larroche for building Pico CSS and sharing it with us.

Canada is becoming a lot less foreign to Europe than US on the current trajectory.

This document demonstrates that nicely IMO:

The examples near the top use the more familiar OOP approach, while the example at the bottom uses message sending.

But with full blown e2e browser tests the test suite duration can go through the roof. How do you deal with that?

> What you can do is use commands like ":peek prev" (takes you to the previous edit), ":peek 1h", or other time-travel commands to inspect previous states and manually recover overwritten changes if needed.

Thanks, I think that would work fine in most cases if you can open your editor with the 'prev' version and the current version in 2 panes (or in diff mode).

> Conflict handling model: Later events take precedence when conflicts occur

Do I understand correctly that if 2 people add a lot of information to one issue only one of them 'wins' and becomes visible? Or is it more subtle?

If only the latter one becomes visible, how do you get to the edits of the other person and 'merge' it again?

What if the pretty advanced e-government system decides it will not be unblocked?

I agree, Cucumber works really well with LLMs.

> I use a mix of Markdown and Gherkin

Gherkin also has a Markdown based syntax that is not well known:

https://github.com/cucumber/gherkin/blob/main/MARKDOWN_WITH_...

I prefer that to the 'verbose' original syntax. MDG also renders nicely in code forges.

I actually agree with that. And I enjoy the fact that TUIs are becoming popular. But there is more to it than just the 'vibe'.

If you think the 'mouse-clickable' aspect is bothering me, you missed my point entirely.

eterps — Fri, 13 Mar 2026 12:56:05 +0000

Sure, but my point was that UX matters for TUIs. A TUI with a UX that fits its paradigm , again like lazygit, works great over SSH.
