This a rough gauge of approximately how many LOC I am maintaining these days:

Remarkable

More generally, all the Remarkable code that we have built with the Agentic tooling sums up to:

Preparing for the technical interview

  • consider multiple approaches
  • edge-cases is good, but you should also consider input verification!
  • choosing the hashmap was great, but the candidate didn’t really explain why

3dkeycap

Here is my review of the TKL Tilters and also of the Diagonal 15 degrees tilters.

Overall, 4 stars from me.

The product works well, but there are some thorns.

I had one tilter break on me whilst installing the set, and it appears I was not really sent left and right diagonal tilters – they’re all just the same piece.

Here is an image:

R1, R2 tilters and all the diagonal ones too

Remarkable Paper Pro Move

Here are some probably private notes about this device.

I am sharing them with you for the benefit of knowledge.

Naturally since this emerges from the topology of Emacs some of this page may not be sensible to you.

Layout

  • –tree / -T — recursive tree view (pair with –level=N / -L N to cap depth)
  • –long / -l, –all / -a (twice -aa shows . and ..)
  • -1 — one entry per line (good for piping)
  • -R — recursive flat listing
  • -F / –classify — trailing /, *, @ indicators
  • -G / –grid — grid layout (default for short listings)

Columns in long mode

  • –git — git status column (you have this)
  • –git-repos — show repo status for subdirs that are git repos
  • –header — column headers
  • -h / –header vs -h inside -l shows human sizes (already on via -h)
  • –total-size — sum sizes for directories (slow on big trees)
  • -@ / –extended — macOS extended attrs / xattrs
  • -B / –bytes — raw bytes instead of human-readable
  • -o — show octal permissions
  • –no-permissions, –no-filesize, –no-user, –no-time — trim columns
  • –time=modified|accessed|created|changed — which timestamp
  • –time-style=relative|iso|long-iso|default — relative is very readable

Sorting / filtering

  • -s size|modified|created|accessed|name|extension|type (prefix with - or suffix with -r to reverse)
  • –group-directories-first / –dirs-first
  • -D — directories only; -f — files only
  • -I ‘glob’ / –ignore-glob — exclude patterns
  • –git-ignore — respect .gitignore

Icons / color

  • –icons=auto|always|never (needs Nerd Font)
  • –color=always — force color when piping
  • –hyperlink — terminal-clickable filenames (kitty supports this)

tmux

  1. Startup timing: moved from .zshrc → tmux.conf (runs 3s after TPM, so continuum finishes first)
  2. Auto-restore disabled: @continuum-restore ‘off’. Auto-save still runs every 5 min. You can manually restore anytime with Prefix + Ctrl-R.
  3. nvim +GoToFile → nvim ‘+Telescope find_files’
  4. Code sub-sessions: code (private), code (others), code (share) now appear in C-a T
