It's amazing.

It's amazing.

I sometimes do a set of motions where I'm like... Making or selecting text inside of like a quote with like two commands. And then I do whatever the thing where it's just like, I just got to stop. I was like, did I just fucking do that? I just fucking do that. Where you're just like, this is incredible. Like. I just benched a new record.

Yeah, it like created a mini game to text editing. It's amazing. I've loved it late in my career.

And it's the best kind of game. It's one where like the payoff is actually literal productivity that you can deposit towards goals that you have in life like building businesses and so forth, right? It's not just sort of – wankery for its own sake. So anyway, all that led to my first being a reluctant Linux user, almost like a Mac OS refugee.

I just need to find a tent somewhere where the wind is not too harsh and whatever. I'll make do on this rock. Until realizing, do you know what? I could just walk five feet further. There's a fucking oasis down here. And there's goddamn coconuts and pineapple and just everything is flowing. How did I not know this? This is actually the reaction I had. I knew about Neovim.

I had never heard of Lazy Kid. And I was like, how the fuck did I go 20 goddamn years not knowing that like this entire universe existed just around the corner? Just around the corner. I could even have been running it on Mac OS. I mean, a lot of these TUI tools, they run just fine on the Mac too. I just even didn't know. So that's where I just got more and more confused.

grateful for the entire expedition because it was taking me to foreign lands and foreign experiences. And I liked a lot of it. And now I've ended up in a place where I love my computer more than I have loved a computer in at least 15 years. The last time, and this is both on the software and hardware side. On the hardware side, the last computer I really loved, I mean, I don't know why.

Why does love work the way it does? It was the MacBook Air 11 inch that ran the shittiest Intel chip I think you could buy at the time. So it was woefully underpowered, but it just, it felt right. Like the size of it was right. The screen of it was right. I loved that computer for many years and I carried it for many years. It was my primary development tool for many years.

Then the MacBook era came in, and first we went through the awful five years in the desert with the butterfly keyboard, where at our company, 30% of all laptops we bought ended up broken. That's an incredible failure rate.

Within two years, we did the math, over 30% of them had to go back for repairs, some of them multiple times, it never really got to work proper, and Apple was just like, you're typing it wrong. I don't think that's the problem when 30% of us are ending up with that. So you went through that, right? And then we got to actually the best place Apple has ever been in. They went back on that.
