- I also have a Casio fx-991ES Plus which I bought during my student years and love to use it, because it is way faster for quick stuff than my Prime and I changed its battery in the past 10 years just once. This is not the case for Prime where I have to charge it every week or two. But doesn't bother me. Prime is an amazing calculator.

Not writing as much as I wanted to, but nevertheless it‘s my space on the grand scheme of things.

For this kind of stuff Raycast is more than enough though. I use its window management features extensively.

- moving windows without holding from any particular position

- resizing windows without grabbing a particular corner

Life changing small things.

Once I was travelling back to home from Munich and the train stopped somewhere in Frankfurt in the middle of nowhere. Literally stopped on the tracks and it was completely dark outside except some far away lights from the houses around.

We waited for 3 hours, with 2-3 explanations which did not make any sense. After 3 hours the train started riding again and I arrived in Cologne, which is ~1h away from home still, and they said this is the last station. I needed to spend the night in Cologne in a hotel, because it was 3 o'clock in the morning and there was no other train to my hometown.

Fortunately I was able to get a refund plus the hotel cost for that night back.

Anyway, for that short amount of time I liked most of it on my ultrawide monitor. Except when you open just one application, it stays on the left-most part naturally and it honestly sucks to look at. I have no idea if I could modify the settings to launch apps with an offset and eventually occupy the complete screen estate. I‘m planning to build a new AMD machine and will try Wayland compositors again for a longer period of time. Niri is my first candidate.

On taking notes/highlighting I agree with the author. A general behavior I observe in colleagues or co-workers is that they highlight half of a paper, but they never do anything with that highlights. This is something I never understand. If you never use that piece of information anywhere, why bother even spending ink on it?

Maybe I'm dumb but another thing I never understand is how the hell you think org-mode is the best way to do this? An org document is one of the worst things I have seen in my life in terms of readability. How do you read this and properly interact with that mess? I am really eager to understand...

Wait a minute… This has even a name in logical fallacies: CONFIRMATION BIAS.

Plus, I think Astro wins over Next in terms of documentation and the general developer experience.

Next has the bad vibes, unfortunately because of all Vercel thing. At least for me. I believe if Next would position itself somewhere like Astro, people would be more open to learn and dig it. I don‘t exactly know if it‘s 100% true, but I feel like if I invest my time in Next, I will be locked-in by the Vercel world of things. And no one likes that.
