  • Check out carapace. It takes a bit of setup but basically tries to make all the completions work in almost any shell. For me that solved the big step backwards from fish's completions that nu's native completions have.

  • Yeah, it has. I think they started out as loving the concepts of PowerShell but hating the implementation, combined with the fact that PowerShell is clearly a Windows-first shell and doesn't work so well on other OSes (it surprised me a lot to find out that PowerShell even has support for linux).

    nu tries to implement these concepts in a way that's more universal and can work equally well on Linux, macOS or Windows.

  • It's arguably better as a scripting language than as an interactive shell. There are a lot of shell scripts out there that also dabble in light data processing, and it's not the easiest thing to achieve well or without corner cases. So nu scripts are great if all you need is shell scripts with some data processing.

    nu as an interactive shell is great for the use cases it shines at (like OP's example), but a bit too non-POSIXy for a lot of people, especially since it's not (yet) as well polished as something like fish is for example.

    Edit to add that nu's main drawback for scripting currently is that the language isn't entirely stable yet, so you better be prepared to change your scripts as required to keep up with newer nu versions (they're at 0.107 for a reason).

  • As an i3 owner it's simply wild to me how BMW has squandered their massive lead in EV design. It's still a better car than most new EV's out there in many ways (it only weighs about 1.3 tons for example!). And every BMW EV since then has been a massive step back, although the newer generations coming next year might finally be a step in the right direction.

  • On the Playstation store, yes. On PC it was mostly fine, if a bit buggy because it was released too early (as so many games are unfortunately). But I and many other people enjoyed it just fine at launch, and it has gotten better and better every year since then. It's still getting new content and patches 5 years after launch, and the modding scene is absolutely crazy right now, so many good stuff being released.

  • This is so wrong I don't even know where to start. There is an very convoluted web of how choices in literally dozens of quests affect other quests and other things in the world. There are hours and hours and hours of videos on Youtube going through all the choices you have and all the possible outcomes they give you and all the different endings the game has if you make the right choices.

    And since when are we gatekeeping the term RPG? Even the Wikipedia article opens with "Cyberpunk 2077 is a 2020 action role-playing game"... It's also based on a pen-and-paper RPG, and it's original creator, Mike Pondsmith, is involved in the creation of this game and it's upcoming sequel. I'm not sure how much more RPG you can be than that?

  • This sounds like bad science to me. Our current exoplanet detection methods are heavily skewed towards detecting larger planets, depending on factors like the size of the parent star as well. So the planets we know of at the moment are most likely not at all representative of every planet that exists out there. Seems like a terrible moment to draw these kind of conclusions.
