I used Borland Turbo Pascal and C++ all through school and I have to agree, these were the most intuitive and efficient IDE’s I’ve used.

If nothing else it enforces readable code which I think is a good thing.

Maybe something from My config will inspire you.

Best answer here. No data harvesting.

Mine’s here, a few things have been modernized since I last updated but general functionality is about the same.

That would be annoying.

Weatherflow Tempest. Not cheap but excellent weather station with great integration ro HA.

This is a good point too. Just because you don’t use regex often doesn’t mean your needs are simple. They are probably much the same as someone who uses it often. Which is why readability and less learning curve is a good thing.

Probably I’ve spent the 30 minutes 5-10 times over my life. But then it’s a few years till I need it again and I need to spend the 30 minutes again.

I’m not a programmer by trade so I only program when I need something and regex is a small subset of that. Usually I find something someone else wrote and adapt it to my needs. But it would be nice to be able to write things from scratch, this would be a helpful tool for that for sure.

I almost never use regex, but when I do, I’d love something like this. Exactly because I don’t use regex enough to be bothered learning it’s impenetrable syntax.

I use mine quite a lot. I have a weather dashboard, and the forecasts from my weather station are second to none, way more accurate than any other option. I also use them in a lot of automations. Many of which are here, the python script described there is using a lot of weather data to make decisions about whether to keep the heat lower in the morning or not. Saves me pretty good money on heating.

I’ve noticed also that very few posts are shown in a community when sotting ny hot. If I sort by new or old, I can see everything.

Honestly reddit is about 100 times too big now. Most comments on major threads go unseen. It was plenty big enough 16 years ago for lots of good discussion, way better than today to be honest. Now it’s just about who can get the quickest quip in. Actual discussion is pretty lacking on reddit.

It would stand to reason that if there is discussion on the original reddit thread, that it would also generate discussion here too.

I disagree. This content is largely no different than content posted directly to lemmy by actual users. People will subscribe, comment, up/downvote, and it will not be different in any meaningful way. It’s just a great wellspring of content to me.

Of course, discussions will happen here on Lemmy. It’s just a matter of these communities federating so we can all get access to them. So far they don’t come up in my search from other instances.

Wow, this is just perfect. Honestly I haven’t been missing much from reddit, but this is the final nail in the coffin for them since we can pick up whatever we are missing from here now. Amazing.
