That may be enough in some cases.

Sometimes people are not looking for fully fleshed out high-effort answers. They want a pointer (to documentation, or a repo) to get going from someone more experienced.

Google search may throw up too much information and it is hard to make a choice. A one sentence answer from an expert may be enough to set them on the right path.

Thats the rub. I have an M4 with 48G. I wonder if it is worth testing this out.

My past attempts (with Ollama and various LLMs) were too slow to use.

You are right, this is not a rewrite like the Bun case.

The real news is, at 50M LOC, it is able to handle and do _something_ coherent.

Here are some advantages.

  - It is repeatable, you can do the same exact thing you did before. With ZSH history + FZF, recalling a command is a breeze.

  - Auditability. The command in your shell history is there for you to revisit and servers as a permanent record of something you did (or didn't do).

  - A command line doesn't make a mistake at 10th time, due to fatigue, inattention etc.

  - Reusability. You may have to repeat the same command for different folders (or remote servers). A slight modification of the previous command will do it for you.

Look Ma, No mouse !

Perl6/Raku has built in grammers that can do that idiomatically.

If you have a couple minutes, give this a glance. It will give you an idea.

I am no expert in haskell either. But parsec is similar in concept.

They are particularly bad at complex multiline parsing. Writing all sorts of weird/crude python/awk scripts and getting confused in the process.

I wish they would use Perl6/Grammer or Haskell/Parsec or similar and write better parsing scripts.

And I had to look down every time I had use it. I am glad to see it go.

>I want to wash my car. The car wash is 50 meters away. Should I walk or drive?

Walk. It's 50 meters — you're going there to clean the car anyway, so drive it over if it needs washing, but if you're just dropping it off or it's a self-service place, walking is fine for that distance.

The dog would disagree! :-)

I admire your mother. She is a real hacker.

Currently trying out various Emacs packages. I got 'claude-code.el' actually working. But there is some flickering and also the interface is a bit wonky.

I will try other packages mentioned in the article.

For the life of me, I can't _edit_ with VSCode. My Emacs/Doom/Evil muscle memory is too ingrained.

I think GP is asking about a global (from any application) mute/unmute teams Mic. I have wished for one for ever.

Does it not print the notes? I tried to print a month and it is not showing any notes in the preview.

Common Lisp. Using 'iterate' package almost feels like cheating.

I have done half a year in (noob level) Haskell long ago. But can't find the code any more.

Most mind blowing thing for me was looking at someone's solutions in APL!
