I just finished your book today, Dave. It's exactly my type of book because it has a good mix between theory and practice, and I'm experimenting with some of your favourite tools such as kitty and fish. :)
I'm loving kitty so far.
I'm a neovim user and use Elixir as my main language, and still use Slate to manage my windows on OSx though because I really love it. I've been experimenting with Zed because it just works out of the box and is lightweight and fast, but gosh, I was missing Vim.
I did your Elixir course some good years ago, and redid it when you updated it. The idea of using a Hangman game stuck with me and I started to use one to teach concepts of incremental development in my courses. It made me reflect and write a series of articles about biases that we often have that pushes us away from incremental approaches (it's in my substack if you want to take a peek).
I will also start to recommend your new book to all my students and colleagues. It's simple (pun intended) and straight to the point.
Thanks for sharing your experiences and congratulations for achieving such a great balance with "geeky stuff" and "people stuff" in your book and posts! :)

Wow, thank you for that.
I keep trying Zed, just because I get sick of chasing down edge cases in nvim. But I always go back: I can't live without EasyAlign.
I've added your substack to my reading list: thanks for the reference.
Cheers
Dave
