Nice to see Helix yet again. It is my default editor, never really got the hang of Vim and I quite like Helix's Selection -> Action system.

I asked the same thing on Discord where he also showcased it. He answered the question with this.

> I wanted to make something that makes intuitive sense to me, and I wanted to make a sql version of what lazygit does, namely you can just jump in and there's no need for external documentation. To navigate the harlequin with keyboard only you have to learn the keybindings. Also I though it was quite hard to connect to databases via the cli and install adapters (again, documentation necessary). I wanted to have a tool that you can just run and its intuitive. There's definitely more features in harlequin and I went with more lightweight, though sqlit has SSH tunnels, which harlequin lacks.

When I linked lazysql[0], he replied with this

> That was my original inspiration. Same problem with harlequin, I didn't feel like it was intutive and to follow the "lazy" mindset of lazydocker and lazygit, it should just be easy and not require looking up keybindings. Lazysql ended up with too many features for my taste to the point it was difficult to use

im not exactly sure why they have chosen to execute as scriptblock, but normally, you can just do ``` irm <url> | iex ```

which essentially sends a request (curl) and runs everything (iex)


thats an issue with aider. using a proper framework in the alternate terminal buffer would have greatly benefitted them

I never laughed so hard from watching a PR's comments.


Seeing Copilot says this over and over again was hilarious: "The current implementation requires a complete rewrite..."


do you have a link to the $600 PC?


i found out that most articles behind paywalls dont even need the wayback machine to be viewed

if you are using firefox, just enter reading mode and you can read the entire article without popups in your preferred background, text color, font, etc


the animation is so useless and doesnt add anything to the actual post


very cool, can be useful for simple commands, but i find github cli's copilot extension useful for this, i just do `ghcs <question>` and it gives me an command, i can ask it how it works, or make it better, copy it, or run it


I like using ghcs for this as well! Or at least, I liked to - it's deprecated now, in favor of the new CLI which doesn't provide the same functionality.
