I've just recently jumped on the vim train via the Neovim VS Code plugin. For a while now i've considered diving in, but felt completely out of my depth until starting a new job recently where some teammates use it exclusively. I have been getting used to the vim bindings over the last month or so and it's introduced a layer of fun to programming that i've not had in a long time.

Doing simple tasks still takes longer than it would using other editors, but it's made worthwhile by the occasional "holy shit" moment when i learn a new command or write my own macro. The muscle memory will take a while to drill in but I can absolutely see it improving my efficiency after some time. I recommend it for anyone who's considering

Impressive! But sadly closed source is a big limiting factor for me. I've been using the similar `devtools-x` for a couple of years now (https://github.com/fosslife/devtools-x) which hosts a bit of a smaller featureset but is still in active development. Nice work nonetheless!

By default, syncthing uses public relays, but thankfully that can be disabled

And the 360 degree hinge is a big selling point for me! I'm glad i didn't pull the plug when i saw the KS go live last week. It's a great product but hard to justify spending more money for similar/worse functionality

I also wrote my own pseudo-DDNS recently! With inspiration from a couple of similar projects on github

Mine is a golang executable that runs directly on my OpenWRT-based router on a 30 minute cron job. The beauty of running it on my router directly is that I can simply query the `eth0` interface for my public ip address - no need for a `curl` to determine my public IP.

This hits strangely close to home and i totally agree. I've been a lead developer for the better part of a few years and have found that the nature of it has completely prevented me from committing to work on difficult tasks as there's a constant need to context switch and assist other devs or jump into a last-minute meeting.

I recently got the diagnosis (and medication) for ADHD which has made the world of difference. I've since had an ability to context-switch and focus in a way that I maybe never did until now. I found myself for a long time not even bothering attempting to open my IDE unless i knew that i would have a day void of meetings but now it kind of does feel like a superpower in a roundabout way.

I love meteor for small scale project - personal / utility apps and such. I haven't found anything that compares to the efficiency of spinning up a POC app; that being said, in its current form it is horrible for making anything other than that. Real-world products need a more robust solution, and it's my experience that anything written with meteor will likely need to be re-written when it picks up traction
