"... vim and neovim merge,..."

This seems very unlikely. In neovim help docs there's a paragraph in file `nvim.txt`

   Nvim is emphatically a fork of Vim, not a clone:
   compatibility with Vim (especially editor and Vimscript
   features) is maintained where possible. See |vim
   differences| for the complete reference of differencesfrom
   Vim.
nvim maintainers believe the project diverged and compatibility is best effort at this stage. Essentially, there's no plan to merge the two projects at this stage and the benefits are not evident.

He meant Cursor editor [1] and not VS Code Corsor. He corrected in the next X post [2]

For long form conversations, I strongly recommend Conversations with Tyler Cowen. Lex Friedman is also good. But if I have to pick one, it will be Tyler Cowen, mainly due to the host. The variety and depth of knowledge that Tyler posses is awe inspiring. I do not get bored listening to his questions. But I get bored listening to Lex.

If I've to recommend some episodes, Vishy Anand (Chess), Lazarus Lake (Endurance Running), Can't find this: an interview with a guy who is walking around the world. He is currently crossing China and walking East. And many more ...

There's some strong views about ThePrimeagen in this thread. Just want to share my experience. I've spent tonnes of time configuring Vim, Neovim etc. Its ... a ... mess.

I love both editors and for the love of me, I don't know why configuring them is soooo hard and brittle.

ThePrimeagen videos on Vim/Neovim is by far information dense videos. It took me sometime to ignore his style of presentation and just focus on content. However, the value I got out of watching his videos is undeniable. Knowing his background a bit and how he battled addiction gave me some context. (Sorry can't find that video on his channel now)

Continuing on this topic of Vim/Neovim ...

Leeren Chen (https://www.youtube.com/@leeren_) is pure genius on the topic of configuring Vim. I've never seen another person like him on Youtube, who uses Vimscript to configure Vim to make it work like an IDE (almost).

TJ Devries (https://www.youtube.com/@teej_dv) videos on Neovim are awesome too (He's core dev of Neovim). But there's lot of gimmicks in his video and it can put people off. His videos with @BashBunni is very approachable in terms of learning about and configuring Neovim.
