Claude and my buddy Eaves tells me the meaning of life as it pertains to source control.

Setup for the next few days
I’m not convinced Claude is faster for all programming tasks, even if you believe in not reading code in an agent-driven repository. Seems like hybrid programming is the best move right now, but you wonder if that’s slower than committing to either paradigm.
Using Siri voice to text when the wind is blowing in your AirPods is hilarious
I’ve been exposed
Absolutely.
Claude code is in timeout. Total nonsense happening at the moment.
ghostty with three splits. top left is a custom fast fetch. bottom left is htop. the right split is helix opened in the jj repo. rose pine dawn is the theme for all of it.
I'm digging this Ghostty setup. All native splits and tabs.
Ah maybe it will in the future! I did not know that limitation. Something for me to look into!
Not running Linux at the moment, but that's always a matter of "when again" and not if. Arch, Fedora and NixOS are still my favorites
a custom fastfetch config that displays my os, system specs, shell, terminal, editor, etc.
My setup in 2026! All in on jj (no git) and nushell.

Doing something I should have done long ago @us.graphics
GitHub diff failing to load.
Behold! GitHub.
Took me a long time to realize that having your terminal launch into your interactive shell of choice is better than changing the system shell.
I don't know why but jj with nushell is just such a winning combo. They work really well together and are pretty quick drop in replacements with minimal configuration.
Regrettably, they're just too fast. The unified memory and available memory bandwidth are crazy before you even get to the compute architecture.
Thank you Donnie! Hey what Obot is trying to achieve is pretty sick too! I wish I could multiply because there's so much cool stuff out there.
Great to hear! Let's definitely talk jj sometime. It's a joy to use.
Those close to me know that I've been thinking about this problem space for many years and I believe now is finally the time to build the tools and products we all deserve.
I'm very excited to announce that I joined @ersc.io! I started on Monday and having been working with a team of amazing, kind and forward-thinking people striving to create the future of source control.

Thank you Sergey!!
Thanks! So many phone calls with you helping me talk it through ❤️. Thankful for you!
Thank you all again! If you’d like to chat about other former SI folks who are looking for their next adventure, I’d be more than happy to make the introduction.
I’m diving into a space that I believe has been exceptionally underserved for a long time. It’s been on my radar for my entire career and has been a matter of “when” and not “if” to dive into. The team is incredible and exactly who you need to pull this off. I’m beyond excited to talk about it soon.
I will remember the way you all, individually and collectively, came together for us forever. I’m also appreciative of the remaining team at SI for supporting us and making connections for us. I wish you all success too!
I’m excited to announce that I’m starting the next adventure soon! I cannot thank everyone enough for reaching out, coming together, being flexible, being understanding, and surrounding myself and my colleagues that were affected by recent changes at SI.
Gotcha! Thanks that's helpful.

People who have switched to nushell, was it worth it? What do you enjoy about it? How was/is it?
