Time travel

Last night in bed, I realised we’d encountered a scenario at work during the day where something happened so fluidly in jujutsu that it’d make a good case story! Let’s compare, step by step, how it’d look with git. The stage is set: you’re working on a big, old, legacy codebase, and you’re 10 commits deep in a branch where you’re adding a new...

I finally got bothered to try jujutsu. It’s often hard to convey just how fast I’m accustomed to moving with git, and so while there are many valid complaints about its interface, object model design, etc., I’m really super fluent with it! So for a long time I was happy to let jujutsu just be a thing people were talking about; simpler or better...

const Control = union(enum) { button: *Controls.Button, menubar: *Controls.Menubar, menu: *Controls.Menu, menu_item: *Controls.MenuItem, editor: *Controls.Editor, fn generation(self: Control) usize { return switch (self) { inline else => |c| c.generation, }; } fn setGeneration(self:...

Just a little note to say that I’ve published VyxOS, my Nix configuration. It’s just over a year old at this point, and at one point supported a large mesh of eccentric servers with its own dynamic mesh and DNS and all sorts of nonsense, but the config and infra has been hugely condensed to make it friendly to my brain, and the history scrubbed...

Raw log from my notes re: Time travel follows. Sae RV32I with some RV32C/refactoring WIP from long ago. The WIP probably feels way too magic for me now, but we should take a look at it. Now uses Niar. TODOs 🔗 ↩ Decombing RV32C and associated refactor Then add RV32E, RV64I? The entire test infra could be so much more robust. M extension A...
