    Debugprint.nvim | The Best Print Debug Tool for Neovim?

    Let's meet Andrew Ferrier, the creator of the neovim plugin debugprint.nvim debugprint is a NeoVim plugin that simplifies debugging for those who prefer a low-tech approach. Instead of using a sophisticated debugger like nvim-dap, some people prefer using a 'print'-like statement to trace the output during execution. With debugprint, you can insert these statements, including the values of variables, relevant to the language you're editing.

    No One Talks About This Side of Tech YouTube… (feat. Medeski, Nikolov, Blais)

    I used to romanticize the idea of being a “tech influencer.” In this episode, I talk with three creators I deeply respect: @JoshMedeski , @nikolovlazar , and @JoshuaBlais what it’s actually like behind the scenes. We dive into personal setups, struggles with content creation, balancing real life and YouTube, and the mental toll of staying “relevant” in the tech space. If you’re into Neovim, Emacs, Linux, macOS, or just want to hear honest takes on the tech creator "lifestyle" (I know, chatgpt sometimes likes to write too much nonsense), this one is for you.
