I don’t see how this supports your point then. If “setting up proxy” means “packaging it to run on thousands user machines” then isn’t there obvious and huge potential for a disastrous fuckup?

Setting up proxy is not engineering.
Of course, but when indentation has a syntactic meaning the formatter often won’t be able to fix it.
It’s probably more prone to mistakes like that, true. But in practice I really never witnessed this actually being a problem. Especially with tests and review.
Yeah, that’s definitely a good point. But it’s a minor thing. Adjusting indentation takes 2 keystrokes in vim, I barely notice it.
So I’m going to say what I always say when people complain about semantic whitespace: Your code should be properly indented anyway. If it’s not, it’s a bad code.
I’m not saying semantic whitespace is superior to brackets or parentheses. It’s clearly not. But it’s not terrible either.
As someone who codes in Python pretty much everyday for years, I NEVER see indentation errors. I didn’t see them back when I started either. Code without indentation is impossible to read for me anyway so it makes zero difference whether the whitespace has semantic meaning or not. It will be there either way.
I’m so excited for Cosmic!
The article is very interesting but the fake cursors are infuriating and make it nearly impossible to focus on the content. It’s a clever joke but without a way to disable it, the author is just sabotaging his own content.
Yup, that’s what I meant. I really don’t see why anyone wouldn’t use it nowadays.
The solution to this problem (and many others) is to use an IDE / editor which supports refactoring like that. Which is pretty much every IDE / editor unless you’re using some very obscure language I think.
When I receive a notification I don’t need to switch away from my editor to check it, I just glance to the left and continue with my work or react if needed. Constantly switching windows in front of me would be so much more distracting for me.
Also, being able to read docs and google stuff on a vertical monitor on the right, while still seeing the code in front of me is incredibly convenient. Again, I can’t imagine switching away from my editor to the docs and to the code again.
I need to be able to effortlessly switch attention between code, tests, logs, docs, notifications. If I can’t do that by just shifting my sight in the right direction, my brain doesn’t function.
It’s so interesting how different people are!
Anything less than that will completely ruin my workflow. I’m even trying to come up with a feasible way to fit a fourth one.
E2E is their flagship feature and pretty much only selling point. I’m really not surprised they don’t allow to just disable it.
Huge thanks to Vaxry and all contributors, Hyprland is great!
Man, I’m just chilling and relaxing after a week of SE work and this resonates with me very deeply
I didn’t expect this to be something I would actually use but I was mildly excited to try it out just out of curiosity. Then it asked me to log in. Login to a fucking terminal emulator. I have no words.
I’m very excited for COSMIC!
Good job Cosmic team!
I really hope Cosmic can be the first DE to close the gap between tilling window managers and DEs we have today. Very excited for it!
I’m not sure about the exact percentage but I don’t think it’s necessarily that far off. I spend a lot of time reviewing code, designing, documenting, reading documentation. Actually writing code is a cherry on top.
Software development and computer stuff in general is my passion. I enjoy doing it as a hobby even after doing it at work. If I didn’t have to work for money, I would probably work on some open source software. In fact that’s kinda my dream / goal - achieve financial independence and work on open source as I please.
