Sticking with reFind here

It is basically http://mail.office365.com in an electron shell. I’m pretty sure all the non ‘classic’ apps are this way now. I’m currently trying out Thunderbird to see if I like it.

Could it be a route cache thing? may be worth trying artisan route:clear followed by artisan route:cache

Sure, ultimately I dismissed it at the time as a fancy iPod and chose a Nokia.

At the time iPhone 1 didn’t seem like anything smarter than an iPod that could take calls. I was hyped over the Nokia 770 and eager to see what else would come out with Meamo OS. It took till mid 2008 until iPhone 3G and iOS 2 (and app store) were released.

Atom did bring about tree-sitter at least.

From https://zed.dev/blog/we-have-to-start-over

We got to a certain point with Atom. It was 2017 when we’d shipped Teletype and it felt like, okay, it’s no longer our own ignorance holding us back, it really is like the platform holding us back at this point.

…

the ironic thing is that we created Electron to create Atom, but I can’t imagine a worse application for Electron than a code editor, I don’t know.

I got sick of loading times for Acrobat reader so ended up installing SumatraPDF for something more lightweight for general viewing. I only use Acrobat now if I’m planning to print the PDF.

I have a lot of repetition in my job (CAD modeller). Even just knowing keyboard shortcuts & setting up shortcuts for frequently used operations can easily net me 5 seconds per operation. I want to spend my energy on solving the task at hand, not on how to use the tool in the moment. I don’t want to move the mouse away from the work area if I can help it.

Maybe not as frequent 5 per day - but scripts for really bottom of the barrel stuff:

• Cycle thru all currently open drawing documents, zoom to full page and force save.
  • zoom out ensures drawing can be identified from document thumbnail.
  • the software is known to crash, especially editing drawings.
  • easy 10mins duplicated work saved.
• Printing all open drawings out to the office printer in order with a delay between them, so i don’t spend the next 20 minutes manually sorting the drawing prints.
  • printers don’t always print in incoming order, some documents take longer to process.
• find/replace for text notes
  • the software doesn’t have that feature.

I’ll do it for things that don’t seem like it will save much, but because it was such an infrequent task I would forget how all the cogs worked when it needed to be done again, and what pitfalls to avoid. So it’s not just direct time saved, but also increasing reliability.

C’mon, this is El Reg you are talking about here.

He won computer science ** highest possible **.

Give nicotine+ a try some time.

I’m still using a S10e, seriously considering buying another - it still suits my needs.

Asahi means “rising sun” in Japanese, and it is also the name of an apple cultivar. 旭りんご (asahi ringo) is what we know as the McIntosh Apple, the apple variety that gave the Mac its name.
