Are you sure the package was physically routed through Toronto and it’s not just customs documents etc filed by the corporate office?

They're still playing catch-up... X Elite is okay but the M4 chips blow it and everything else out of the water. Personally, I don't want an "AI Laptop" or a "CoPilot Laptop"... I don't need even more AI generated slop. I just want what Apple is sellling: a reasonably powerful laptop with crazy good energy efficiency and quality hardware.

Like another commenter I’m also running Proxmox. I have a couple VMs to ensure certain services have total segregation, and otherwise usually configure systemd services from my nix flake.

This is always one of the first things I setup on a project and teach or encourage my teams to do… I’m always surprised how many devs would rather use print statements all the time (not just in Rust, but especially JS/TS) when it only takes like 5 minutes to configure the debugger. Maybe 10 minutes if you need to search how to open the debugging port in Chrome/FF.

The main issue I've come across experimenting with Rust UI frameworks is that none of them seem to have a decent multiline / rich text field story. Iced and the like are nice for simple apps but if you need to e.g. input Markdown and render it nicely all in one field you're out in the wilderness.

In addition to the others mentioned, I highly recommend trying out AstroNvim! It's got a great set of defaults, based on lazy.nvim, and it's easy to modify and extend.

I also do recommend taking the time to write your own config from scratch... even if you end up scrapping it just to use one of the pre-made configs, it's worth it to learn how vim works. And you'll quickly discover you have a new hobby in life... configuring your text editor.

I never went through it "end to end". I think it's important to cover the essentials up to ownership, lifetimes, generics, etc, but most of the topics after chapter 10 you can pick and choose as you come across them in real life. The most important is to just start any kind of project and see what questions you come across as you build.

as a Rust and Neovim enthusiast I'm happy to help with c/rust and c/neovim
