In case you are an Emacs user doing frontend development with TypeScript and React, there is tsx-mode https://github.com/orzechowskid/tsx-mode.el
In case you are an Emacs user doing frontend development with TypeScript and React, there is a new major mode for TSX development: tsx-mode. It is a promising project. It uses tree-sitter for font-lock (syntax highlighting). My setup using
use-packagecan be found here and here. I also added it to my Doom Emacs config: see this and this.

This whole cloud thing was a big mistake. Github down (git push throws a 500), and my team can't work. Why did we ever think this is a good idea?

After years of listening to the Linux Unplugged podcast I had to remove it from my feed today. Their Bitcoin praise just got unbearable. :(

I really like the SwiftUI tutorial videos by Martin Lexow, e.g. this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_HfEr9DcbY
I really like the SwiftUI tutorial videos by Martin Lexow, e.g. this one. He doesn't waste much time and just shows what SwiftUI is capable of and how to work with it.

„Nun sag doch etwas“ https://hmbl.blog/28-2-2028-nun-sag-doch-etwas/
„Nun sag doch etwas“. Tidbit:
Und ich habe keine Ahnung. Und ich möchte nicht Teil einer Desinformation sein.
Darf ich Sie um etwas bitten? Halten Sie es genau so. Das Web ist nur dann ein guter Platz, wenn wir es dazu machen.

The last few days I had a lot of fun with Relm4
The last few days I had a lot of fun with Relm4. It is an Elm inspired GTK abstraction.
The main problem I had when using gtk-rs directly was managing state. Either you use a
Rc<RefCell<_>>and pass it around or you use a background thread managing the state and channels to communicate with it.Both ways are tedious.
Relm4 abstracts that away and helps managing state in a much better way:
use gtk::prelude::{BoxExt, ButtonExt, GtkWindowExt, OrientableExt}; use relm4::{send, AppUpdate, Model, RelmApp, Sender, WidgetPlus, Widgets}; #[derive(Default)] struct AppModel { counter: u8, } enum AppMsg { Increment, Decrement, } impl Model for AppModel { type Msg = AppMsg; type Widgets = AppWidgets; type Components = (); } impl AppUpdate for AppModel { fn update(&mut self, msg: AppMsg, _components: &(), _sender: Sender<AppMsg>) -> bool { match msg { AppMsg::Increment => { self.counter = self.counter.wrapping_add(1); } AppMsg::Decrement => { self.counter = self.counter.wrapping_sub(1); } } true } } #[relm4::widget] impl Widgets<AppModel, ()> for AppWidgets { view! { gtk::ApplicationWindow { set_title: Some("Simple app"), set_default_width: 300, set_default_height: 100, set_child = Some(>k::Box) { set_orientation: gtk::Orientation::Vertical, set_margin_all: 5, set_spacing: 5, append = >k::Button { set_label: "Increment", connect_clicked(sender) => move |_| { send!(sender, AppMsg::Increment); }, }, append = >k::Button { set_label: "Decrement", connect_clicked(sender) => move |_| { send!(sender, AppMsg::Decrement); }, }, append = >k::Label { set_margin_all: 5, set_label: watch! { &format!("Counter: {}", model.counter) }, } }, } } } fn main() { let model = AppModel::default(); let app = RelmApp::new(model); app.run(); }I really like that approach!

It's a bit sad how today everybody does a Twitter thread instead of writing a blog post. IMHO most Twitter threads should be blog posts. Same for Mastodon.
