I’ve done the same. Curious, what changes have you made to optimize the reading and reviewing?

Are you saying github copilot is switching to a per token billing model? If so, you have a link to that?

The hardest part for me in using nvim for java is the debugger tooling. I primarily use IntelliJ for any JVM related languages, and the debugger has always been invaluable. The debugging has always felt more polished and easy to configure in JetBrains IDEs. The nvim-dap and nvim-dap-ui had a bit too much friction to configure for it to my liking, and inevitably I reverted to IntelliJ. However, I love the keyboard-driven flow I can achieve in nvim where JetBrains IDEs fall short.

Are you planning to use something online to learn? If so, what?

I don’t see this as hiding code complexity or an alternative to writing cleaner code. It seems the argument is that when we come to a file/class/etc., that we should be initially presented with the outline rather than both the outline and details. It’s an approach to orienting oneself to a grouping of functionality, made first class by the IDE. It’s almost like opening a book and starting with the table of contents before diving into any specific chapter’s details. Allowing the reader to get a sense of what’s covered by this grouping of functionality before diving into the details. I haven’t tried this approach myself but it seems like an interesting exercise at the least.

I've got my own little structure:

  # projects I work on
  code/

  dotfiles/ 

  # main obsidian.md repo that everything I learn dumps into
  omega/

  # public repos for local code spelunking, these remain untouched
  repos/

It's just organically evolved, borrowing from this and that.

Sad to hear this. I had read his book “Elbow Room” back when I had been diving more deeply into free will and the various viewpoints associated. I don’t know that I found it convincing but it was an interesting peek into the compatibilist argument.

I haven't looked too deeply into perplexity yet. What do you find much better about it?

“The Unbearable Lightness of Being” is just fantastic. I think it’s well worth your time. I’ve read it a few times now. With each subsequent read at a different point in my life, it’s been interesting to see new insights and perspectives emerge. If you end liking it, another one from Kundera I particularly enjoyed was “The Book of Laughter and Forgetting”.

Exactly my experience. This is the killer feature for me. It helps to not break flow while working on a given task. Also, it’s great that the floating pane is per tab as well so those related background/interactive tasks can be context dependent.
