VSCode was my main text editor and I started using Cursor this week, which is based on VSCode. It contains a lot of LLM features which makes my job a lot easier. I like writing code but there is a lot of tedious tasks when it comes to writing imports, testing and refactoring and a lot of googling to figure out solutions for different stuff that AI helps take care of. Hopefully it won’t take my job!

😃Currently for a full stack project i am working on at work, we use VS Code for most of it. It’s fairly clean looking, and the extensions and debugging capabilities are quite streamlined

This one’s for my live coders out there ♡ I’ve been learning how to work in a new live coding environment called Strudel. It’s special because it’s web-based and has some cool integrations, and personally I also like it because its notation lends itself really well to unexpected outcomes.

Python!
Honestly very hard for me to get into - I have ZERO coding knowledge and nothing I could really latch onto - knowledge transfer is how I learn. But https://futurecoder.io/ is great (after lots of Redditing)

🚶Just because I see a window to get across the street doesn’t mean you don’t have to look both ways. I’ve been on the other side of that though…

I met Erin (@RIOTGRRRL) and Jake (@SLOWDAZZLE) last year after I started using PI.FYI—we organized a meetup before a Jonathan Richman show and immediately clicked over our shared taste in music and similar sensibilities. We started hanging out a lot and had some great times together. I’ve also gotten to know many of their friends, who are all really cool. Erin and Jake started dating a couple of months after the three of us became friends, but our group chat still pops off. Their friendship has meant a lot to me, especially since moving to NYC in 2023, and I really appreciate having them in my life.
