I also use `history | vim -` to search through the history in the context of other things I was attempting to do. Say, if I try some command and it does not work, chances are it's not the first time and I have the correct version on the line bellow :)

I know, but it was usable when I last used it. (and it was not designed by Atlassian AFAIK... and even if it would, I don't have anything against Atlassian except that they make really terrible software which I was quazi-forced to use)

It had never happened to me except for Confluence and Microsoft Teams. Firefox even preserves the typed text between reloads of the page - so unless the web app hacks the textarea somehow, the text will stay there.

It depends on how you define "better". I'd say that anything else I used (github/gitlab issues, asana, trello, even a spreadsheet) works better *for me* - i.e. it is faster and easier to find things in a small team. I only add things or focus on one issue and then remove it. I still don't understand why mid managers love it, but I guess they have different use cases than me...

It's not going to make a rubber ducky from it. And the age of autorun USBs is hopefully over. I think this is but too paranoid

However, I'd not want to be the device manufacturer, making it secure against all kinds of USB attacks

How many people are using FairPhone or PinePhone outside HN bubble? I don't know anyone, even though most of my friends are from tech or science... I think that answers if people care about hackability / sustainability or similar

Yea, I also have no idea... They could be more specific what qualifies as popular os project

So it depends if you prefer writing or doing code review :) You'd maybe need another tool which converts review work to writing work

I have been using copilot for some time... I'd say yes and no. It helps you a lot when you are writing repetitive code, so in a way it encourages you to write the repetitive BS instead of making a function for that or something. But it's also helpful for writing tests and nice error message. You just type

     if (x.length < 10) throw

I'd not mind to press edit to change it.

I just wrote the search query to our PM, since I was unable to find anything myself... I don't understand why just couldn't use, IDK, a shared spreadsheet, even that would be more productive (from my perspective)

Mullvad is based in Sweden, they seem to be privacy friendlier in general (even allowing sites like sci-hub on their TLD)

They did remove support for Jedi language server in their Python extension. Sure, you can fork it, but nobody will actually use it, since their extension is also free and also looks open. And I didn't find any extension which does that :/

And most likely deprecate support for the open Language server, as they did with Pylance/Jedi...

Yea, the drama occurred when it was in preview, so we all thought it's going to have real hot-reload capability as we know from webdev.

Look, nobody complains about Visual Studio.

People get angry when suffocate existing tools with their free and "open source looking" alternatives. Ask Python devs if they think that their VSCode extension is open ... Even I thought it was open yesterday, turns out it's not and they pretty much removed support Jedi, the acutally open language server.

When I use Rider I just fully accept that it's not open source. Same with the old Visual Studio.

VSCode on the other hand looks open source, they claim it's open source, the extension is open source, yet the most critical component is not. I would call this the new new Microsoft - we look like we love open source, we give you open source tools, but it's either not open actually (this) / will not work if you compile it yourself (VS Code and .NET debugger) / only works on Windows ("Multi-platform App UI", maybe Mac, I don't know)

I'd say that most corporate-backed platforms will have similar issues. The corporations simply have other interests than the community (next quarter profit + control / long term stability + independence). Only way to keep them from doing this is pushing back whenever they try. MS did that with Pylance, it went well and now they are trying again with C#

It works reasonably well though, most extensions are in the libre open-vsx.org gallery. Only problem for me is the missing .NET debugger...

No, they are equally "guilty". At least they don't brag how OSS friendly they are.

There is open source debugger from Samsung (https://github.com/Samsung/netcoredbg/), but it does not see much use.
