&lt;p&gt;Awhile back, I was trying to clean up my work projects directory which had&lt;br&gt;
grown bloated from years of one-off projects.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Why I Use Helix</title><link>https://sbrow.github.io/posts/why-i-use-helix/</link><pubDate>Thu, 17 Jul 2025 11:01:08 -0400</pubDate><guid>https://sbrow.github.io/posts/why-i-use-helix/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;Text editors are a very touchy subject for some people. If you haven&amp;rsquo;t yet chosen
the IDE flag you want to wave when the editor wars start, my general advice
would be to &lt;strong&gt;try all of them&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you&amp;rsquo;re not sure where to start, either &lt;strong&gt;VS Code&lt;/strong&gt;, or &lt;strong&gt;LazyVim&lt;/strong&gt; (A Neovim
distribution) are great options.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Editors are constantly changing, and it&amp;rsquo;d be weird if I was an expert on all of
them- so this article will likely age like a glass of warm milk, but my aim is
that the insight into my decision making process will remain relevant.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Why Too Many Features Spoil The Language</title><link>https://sbrow.github.io/posts/hello-world/</link><pubDate>Fri, 21 Mar 2025 10:22:36 -0400</pubDate><guid>https://sbrow.github.io/posts/hello-world/</guid><description>&lt;h2 id="hello-world"&gt;Hello, World!&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The humble and venerable &amp;ldquo;Hello World&amp;rdquo; program has been with us for many decades.
Love it or hate it, we&amp;rsquo;ve all written at least one. While it can&amp;rsquo;t always tell
you much about a language, when it can- you better listen.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Something that draws me to new programming languages is whether or not they&amp;rsquo;re
opinionated. I find that opinionated languages tend towards having
&amp;ldquo;one [correct] way to do things&amp;rdquo;, and this shuts down a lot of bikeshedding
about code style or particular types of abstractions.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Ideas</title><link>https://sbrow.github.io/ideas/</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://sbrow.github.io/ideas/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;Here are some of my ideas for upcoming articles.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;li&gt;Laravel is a Shit-Covered Cake (With Sprinkles)&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li&gt;Syntax Doesn&amp;rsquo;t Matter&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;code&gt;null&lt;/code&gt; !== &lt;code&gt;undefined&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;NixOS is best OS&lt;/li&gt;
