Startup time was very bad until I disabled adwaita with

    gtk-adwaita = false

This sounds like an issue with your environment. For example, on my Fedora 41 setup Ghostty starts up pretty much instantly regardless of the value of this option.

Not to be confused with https://www.warpstream.com/

[perezd → c2xlZXB5Cg1]

Correct. WarpStream doesn't even support transactions.

Neither does any other Kafka protocol implementation, evidently ;)

Zing! Can’t lose if you don’t play ;)

This cuts both ways, choosing to not implement flawed portions of the spec could be seen as a good thing. I've always been a bit suspicious of the value of "bug for bug compatibility". You don't actually need transactions in Kafka in normal operation IME. I've never tried to use "streams" before and have never encountered a case where I thought they were a good trade. Better to implement that kind of stuff in a way I can control.

I'd go with for loop syntax:

    for (string, 0..) |character, index| {
        _ = character;
        _ = index;
    }

My mind went to "eventual consistency"... time to switch off the internets

Klingonization of go code. I don't like it.

Starting inkscape inline from the editor is such a small and simple detail but does so much for staying focused on the main activity of writing.
