First Install Harper using the method appropriate for your OS. Then add the following to languages.toml [language-server.harper-ls] command = "harper-ls" args = ["--stdio"] Restart Helix Editor. Now you should see squiggly lines under incorrectly spelled words. 🎉 In order to see (and possibly choose) the correct spelling, take the cursor on the error and space a (Code actions)
Add the following to your (platform specific 1) config file shell-integration-features = ssh-env, ssh-terminfo Now reload the configuration. The configuration can be reloaded at runtime by pressing ctrl+shift+, (Linux) or cmd+shift+, (macOS). on macOS : $HOME/Library/Application\ Support/com.mitchellh.ghostty/config, and $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/ghostty/config for Linux if XDG_CONFIG_HOME is not defined, it defaults to $HOME/.config/ghostty/config. ↩︎
The idea comes from the book “The Magic of Thinking BIG” Dr. Schwartz makes a point that just persistence is not enough. Each time you try (and not succeed) learn from it, and change something (experimentation) only this will lead to (eventual) success. I tried to show this visually by having different styles the word Try is drawn in the bottom half (but also wrote experimentation - just to be clear 😄)

Instead they prefer to “get the answer” from one of the LLM/GenAI The Search Engines also now have “AI summaries”, so may be AEO can double as SEO 🤷♂️ Software: tldraw.com
This is not shared to showcase my skills 😄 But to remind myself (maybe others 🤷♂️) that sketching/drawing doesn’t have to be a big deal. When I make a mental list of things to buy (aka shopping list) I usually write it down if it is more than 2 items (else I’m bound to forget something) Usually, I write it down as a text (doesn’t everyone ? 🤔) But today, I thought in images.

While at normal scale (no zoom) I have to fill a tiny portion so as not to worry. But I lose precision.

I chose Water Color Paper to start. Rather than drawing directly as suggested in the video, I did 3 steps. First, I drew a rough sketch using Pencil tool. On a water color paper, it gave me a grainy texture.

There is only one tool for drawing. Call it pen, brush whatever. There is no fancy fountain pen, technical pen, certainly no pencil. No layers. While tldraw honours prssue sensitivity to an extent, that is about it.

This might be my second favourite after ExcalidrawZ The sketch is really simple (it is meant to be) The sketch is based on this video by Eva Lotta 🙏 I probably did this under a minute. But I learnt how to make the stick person look “down”.
