I use Claude Code for getting things done, Zed for general IDE viewing of long form documents, and I’m also building my own in-terminal IDE-lite called toast (https://github.com/paradise-runner/toast still very early development!!) that id like to be able to replace zed with.

I tried Claude code with zed and zed will eat memory like crazy (128GB RAM) after long sessions. I gave up on zed after that happening for a month

Happy New Year from Fort Collins, Colorado USA!


I made a TUI to do something similar. It’s taking a backseat during parental leave, but it’s a fun project to see n number of agents iterating on the same problem and to see how they differ.

A multi-agent TUI that uses opencode and tmux to help me solve the frustrating LLM slot machine problem. I find that running 3 agents in parallel on even tough problems is enough to have one that builds what I want.

It’s also been a fun challenge to build a tool that can be used to improve itself


I tried both nvim and helix from vscode, and no luck. I feel like I don’t need a lot (syntax highlighting, lsp, goto definitions, file hot reloads, and crucially, a file tree). I can kinda get nvim there, but it falls apart when I can’t just enter and exit the file tree+file viewer with a simple ‘vi or q!’. Maybe I don’t understand quite how to get the config just right, but so far a friendly terminal first code editor seems out of my grasp.


I love hosting my personal git, so glad to see others do! I use it for certain projects that I just want to be lazy about (personal website with sensitive data committed to the repo) projects that are for friends/family and don’t need to be public. I chose gitea maybe 2 years ago? And it’s been great. Very light weight compared to gitlab, with useful things like actions. So I can push a new commit to main on my personal server and it’ll deploy my website to the server. I still publish things I want to share to GitHub, but not everything.

I think the thing that sets it apart from others would be I run it on a m2 Mac mini? Very low power consumption, never makes any noise, and seemingly has plenty of power for whatever I need to get done.


I think counter to your experience I don’t know a single developer who uses Codium. While I get the frustration, it may come soon but not immediately.


And also more than most people want to have setup in the living room. My wife would rather have ads on YouTube occasionally than an ugly computer plugged in all the time. It’s also more difficult to deal with than a remote you can work one handed.


Small PCs and drawers exist and i would rather have a whole damn server rack than 30 seconds to 3 minute ads every 5-10 minutes / video. It's worse than TV...and no im not gonna give google money for a continually worse experience despite paying.


You can get a pi and tuck it behind the TV. Then get a mouse that's styled like a remote. There's also plenty of OSs designed to look like a proper smart TV OS


It's not ugly, it's hidden inside the cabinet that the TV stands on.


I haven’t programmed this issue specifically, but Billy Strings has sat in with Trey Anastasio a few times. For me if they do a cover of the guests song, I would say it’s a cover until that member is added to the lineup. I would check how the PhishNet API handles it (I think they have a is_original Boolean). Phish does “covers” of the 2001 theme, I’d wonder if that’s considered a cover even though it was just a small tone poem from 100+ years ago??


This doesn’t square with most of my experience with React, especially if use it to generate static code hosted by nginx. I’ve found my personal site to always be wicked fast, even though it’s not that complex.
