  • The Talos Principle - for me, the puzzles hit the sweet spot of being hard enough to be on my mind all day, but never feeling like the solution was out of reach. But even more than the puzzles, the philosophical elements made me reflect on life, civilization, and personhood in a way nothing else has. It was a peaceful, tranquil experience of just me, a serene soundtrack, and thought provoking text and puzzles.


  • I’ve been a big fan of helix as a terminal text/code editor - while VS Code is open source, a lot of their language servers (for example, pylance) are closed source. Helix lets me integrate open source language servers out of the box without any setup needed (besides installing the language servers), and it has a UI that helps you explore new features and learn keyboard shortcuts. It doesn’t have plugins yet, but I find that the built in features have implemented most things I’d want a plugin for; and it has different keybindings than vim/neovim, but I’ve found the new model for editing more intuitive and worth the relearning process.
