I'm using Helix for some months now -- I haven't checked the repo for slop, but if it's still good then I do recommend it as an alternative.
Fuck AI
"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
I switched to Helix as my main editor for home and work a couple years ago, it's been a dream.
The kakoune editing paradigm (which btw, chef's kiss), coupled with lsp support and symbol and buffer jumping built in. It's like if vscode and kakoune had a baby. So good.
Have bigger problems than this. If the code is reviewed and tested, I don’t care if it was written by a human or machine. Sometimes I feel like people don’t trust recording audio on tapes and praise the good old punch cards.
