@unclebobmartin You doing much with Go lately?

[Michael Whatcott @mdwhatcott]

@bcherny FWIW, it's defined as /less-permission-prompts ('fewer' would probably have been better than 'less' though)

[Michael Whatcott @mdwhatcott]

@bcherny I'd like to update my settings file, but can't find documentation for the exact syntax. I asked Claude and was given `"spinnerVerbs": [...],`, but just putting strings in that array caused `spinnerVerbs: Expected object, but received array`...

@Bitbucket For the last while I'm seeing the following warning every time I git push/fetch: "WARNING: connection is not using a post-quantum key exchange algorithm." Is there an issue somewhere that I can track?

[Michael Whatcott @mdwhatcott]

@thecleancoders Best in the biz!

[Michael Whatcott @mdwhatcott]

@unclebobmartin Working as a craftsman at Clean Coders Studio with your kids gave me a meaningful glimpse into the culture of your family. It was an honor and a privilege to work with them. Congrats on 52 years of marriage!

@laurieherault Ok, thanks for the reply!

@GoLandIDE @golang How do I navigate back to the welcome screen back after unchecking "Always show this page on startup"?

[Michael Whatcott @mdwhatcott]

@kepano Love your blog! I've started a ramblings channel at work because of your latest post (https://t.co/bHokK590oM).

[Michael Whatcott @mdwhatcott]

@GoLandIDE The non-blocking welcome screen is interesting. The old non-blocking screen allowed for mouse-less selection of a project, which was nice. I seem to have to click in the search field of the new screen before I can start typing the project I want to open.

[Michael Whatcott @mdwhatcott]

@jetbrains @clion_ide Great news! Hoping that @GoLandIDE is soon to follow suit

[Michael Whatcott @mdwhatcott]

@GoLandIDE This new behavior, while seemingly convenient on the surface, will cause bugs by breaking JSON contracts.

[Michael Whatcott @mdwhatcott]

@SenJohnCurtis Hey, I wrote you an email and you took the time to respond. I truly really appreciate your time and attention!

@SteinbergMedia Feedback: The whole experience trying to download and install Dorico SE 5 was pretty gross. Sign-in required. Subscription to your digital newletter required. Installation of download manager required. Stuff installed in the background. Too many hoops, moving on.

[Michael Whatcott @mdwhatcott]

I'm super excited to now be a beta tester for Ghostty, an up-and-coming terminal emulator by @mitchellh (and friends). I love that changing the font size (cmd-+) doesn't change the size of the window!

@chesscom Where did the eval bar go?

[Michael Whatcott @mdwhatcott]

@datagrip is there a way to update a connection's username and/or password say, from the command line, or by editing a config file somewhere in my local installation?

[Michael Whatcott @mdwhatcott]

@golang Little typo to report: The <meta> tag on that posting cites 'Go 1.23' getting the new math/rand/v2 package, but it should cite 'Go 1.22' (to be consistent with the article content).

@unclebobmartin I'm really enjoying "Functional Design"! My favorite part so far: the dedication you wrote to your family. I've had the privilege of knowing your kids and worked with Micah (@slagyr), Gina, & Justin (@JMMind). You and your wife raised a special family!
