Something I've been trying to cultivate is the ability to "externalize" my thoughts (even if it's just to myself). Like, more of a process-oriented approach. it's so easy to bang out some code that works, but sometimes I look back at what I wrote and think "how did I wind up here"
What about some simple katas? I've been learning a few new languages and don't want to forget the syntax / common methods, so I pick an easy kata and solve it in each. I find that this is usually enough to prevent me from forgetting everything
As someone who picked up Raku without knowing anything about Perl (besides the fact that it had something to do with regex), it was a little surprising :)
I tend to always install both of them together too! Which makes it a little hard to know where things are coming from. This time I decided to start from scratch, so certain aspects of the config are still salient in my mind
I feel you on this. I recently switched to fish, and have one or two .fish scripts that don't really "do" anything. Everything else remotely important is still in bash, and I'll probably keep it that way
+1 for Astro. I use it for my personal portfolio and I'd choose it again if I had to do it from scratch.
It will come in time, promise. I had a REALLY hard time understanding recursion until I started using it more

I would LOVE for Nim to get more web stuff

OMG looks like Raku
Yeah, I get that. I'm on sabbatical RN, so my GitHub usage is purely personal. Having your work feed hijacked is a different story altogether
Idk, I actually kind of like the "for you" feed. I've discovered some interesting projects on there that I wouldn't have otherwise
I felt this 😢

Hmm, it didn't "just work" for me. I had to set it up recently:
zstyle ':completion:*' matcher-list '' 'm:{a-zA-Z}={A-Za-z}' 'r:|=*' 'l:|=* r:|=*'That line needs to go in .zshrc. Maybe it's enabled by default with oh-my-zsh?
The first tic-tac-toe I ever wrote looks something like this

This is soooo cool, thanks for sharing <3
