It is not visible to the public, I think.

You got it right: Leibniz!

New comment by piperly in "Harper – an open-source alternative to Grammarly"

piperly — Sat, 21 Jun 2025 10:34:23 +0000

Unfortunately, the last time I tested Harper inside Neovim, it alone used more than 1 GB of RAM for just the LSP! However, the concept is nice, open source, no AI, and easy to integrate.

piperly — Wed, 19 Feb 2025 10:10:37 +0000

I had a migraine for more than 15 years. After quitting caffeine completely as a self-experiment, it never came back. When the migraine came, I had it for at least 3 days without improving. So I had to take something with Triptan, like Dolortriptan.

But you trust Google, OpenAI, and whatnot with it?

From a research perspective, this approach isn’t new; David Ha and Danijar Hafner explored similar ideas years ago. However, the technique itself and the achievement of deploying it for testing by hundreds of users is commendable. It feels more like an experimental prototype than a viable replacement for mainstream gaming.

This part of the final sentence encapsulates everything: "...a lot of time is wasted in the back-and-forth."

I think the problem of files not synchronizing had been solved end of last year [0]. Since then I am using iCloud Drive without any issues.

New comment by piperly in "AeroSpace – an i3-like tiling window manager for macOS"

piperly — Thu, 07 Dec 2023 14:50:53 +0000

I recently discovered AeroSpace through my GitHub feed (fortunately, GitHub fixed the broken feed) and tried it out immediately. As a yabai user for more than 1.5 years and an occasional user of i3, I was really curious if something that new and unknown could work as a daily driver - and it works pretty well! Using AeroSpace for close to a week, I am very happy with the switch. I reactivated SIP and added some shortcuts to skhd to call the aerospace-cli for some exotic keys AeroSpace is not supporting. I really like it being programmed with Swift, and I really look forward to diving into the code myself and helping to improve it. Furthermore, the author is really active and recently added the possibility to specify padding (I really needed the bottom gap for my SketchyBar menu a week ago - and then it suddenly made it into the latest version).

Thank you very much, nikitabibko, for this nice macOS window manager. As much as I appreciate yabai, I feel much better now leaving it behind for several reasons.
