Making a list of features that the Snapmaker 2 has that are major improvements over the original machine. Things that really stand out to me. It will grow over time I am sure.
Been working on this off and on for over two months. It's a project dashboard plugin that allows you to organize workspace for easy launching and switching. It was a lot of fun to figure this out, given that Code is Electron there was a lot I had to learn about things like NPM and TypeScript. I'm sold on TypeScript now though. The most important distinction (to me) is that this one supports remote development, without requiring it be installed on the remote servers. So many extensions are wrongly classified and have no business being installed remotely when they are just UI work.
The cleanest upgrade path I could devise with my blunt force devops style after a few failed attempts, was just to full on remove PHP 8.0 and then install 8.1 afterwards. In this case 8.0 was installed via the ppa:ondrej/php prior and there is no good way to do a straight normal upgrade as these PHP packages are annoyingly to me, built to be installed side-by-side.
This is a statement that has been in my Twitter bio for a while now and over the years it has seen some minor variations, with the latest trying to be a little less inflammatory adding "kinda" and "if you think about it" - every now and then someone will ask and it seems to be something people do actually think about, and then still miss the point. Lets longform this thing in the true style of my rant driven development blog.
Personally there are a few times where I tend to screw up with Composer for PHP the most. At the high level its going to be very obvious that the main reason for these comes from versioning. It's a pain in the ass to say yes my app can use v1, v2, v4, but not v3. Once you leave the small set of packages directly related to Composer itself, very few are sitting there juggling version constraints in the real world. Most version constraints are set expecting "features could ever be removed or broken from this point on" and nothing is ever going to fix that human problem, leaving the [...]
