  • I do find myself reading and writing words in dreams quite a lot. I’ve never seen a clock though, not as far as I can remember.

    But sometimes I can even remember signs with street names or banners / short paragraphs.

    Dynamic lighting sadly doesn’t work tho. Light switches do nothing. For example if I turn on the lights in my bathroom in a dream, I can even hear the bathroom fan turn on, but the room remains dark. Ive heard thst this is apparently quite common though.






  • Being a maintainer / project owner is not always fun, but it’s rewarding in a sense that you’re able to offer something useful to others.

    I don’t like providing free support via github issues. And that’s usually what happens, you don’t get many developers that put care into bug reports. Instead it’s mostly users that don’t really understand, sometimes entitled, sometimes really nice but completely wrong.

    However I really appreciate those that do care or at least follow the template and make an effort.

    I see issues as a form of a necessity to help the software improve, but I’ve chosen to no longer pay too much attention to it because it’s just draining.

    Support is draining, and I respect everyone who does it, those who provide support for free even moreso.



  • Im not sure I agree with that statement.

    It’s like saying using a computer means that any program on it belongs to the makers of the operating system because you need that to run it. Or every Java program was made by oracle because you need the JVM to run it.

    VS Code is its own software (and service nowadays), and yes it builds on chromium in part. But doesn’t make the idea, the actual application, i. e. what’s on top of chromium or other associated service owned by someone else.

    I do agree that many software devs and companies rely on Chromium and thus Google, often too much, and I don’t think that’s a good idea But they definitely retain ownership of the code and associated functionality on top.
