Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people. Be strong, be brave, be fearless. You are never alone, dear President Zelenskyy. We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.

You gotta wonder whether Trump aimed to bait Zelensky with the softer tone (did I say he was a dictator?) to come to Washington where they could intimidate and break him. These two (Trump and Vance) picked the wrong guy to try to intimidate.

Finally got to automating the creation of GitHub releases for a few of my OSS projects. GHA made this super easy - should have done this a lot sooner! I wrote a short article on the subject if anyone's interested in doing the same batsov.com/articles/202...

I've been playing with #nvim for the past month, but I'm pretty close to giving up on it. While I like the general editing model, I find it quite frustrating you need a ton of plugins to get something basic done. Getting started with #Emacs seems trivial by comparison. (and I know that's not easy)

I'm somewhat biased, as but Balkan #Ruby takes place in my hometown, but I honestly believe it's one of the nicest (relatively new) Ruby conferences out there. I hope to see you in Sofia in a couple of months!

This is an exciting bit of progress in the governance of OCaml. Historically, too many PRs have languished because there wasn't a clear process to get to consensus. I'm hopeful this will help! discuss.ocaml.org/t/ocaml-lang...

От кога банкоматите на ДСК имат допълнителна такса при теглене с карта на Револют? Това определено не беше така до скоро.

Копаем дъното всеки ден... До кога ще се толерират такива срамни изпълнения на измислени "патриотични" партии, които видимо обслужват чужди интереси, а не тези на България и нейния народ?

That's why I never pay much stock to any promise of a "lifetime warranty" - few small companies actually last that long.

Днес научих че безплатните доставки в Глово не били безплатни, ако поръчаш нещо за под 12.99. Нямаше да е лошо това да го пише някъде на по-видно място, понеже го разбрах чак като видях сметката накрая. 😅 Като цяло доста ме дразни че масово вече се слагат някакви мин цени за поръчка 20+ лв.

I think programmers **NOT** using #Emacs and #Vim are way more productive overall, as they don't spend half their time tweaking their editor/IDE configuration.
