A Minimalist Ruby X11 Window Manager: rubywm

Frustrated with existing window managers, the author created rubywm, a minimalist window manager written in under 1000 lines of pure Ruby (including the X11 driver). It supports tiling and floating window layouts but lacks window decorations and drag-and-resize functionality. All keyboard handling is delegated to external tools like sxhkd, and communication happens via X11 ClientMessage events. Currently, it only supports single monitors and is experimental, prone to crashing. The author's primary goal is personal use, not a large user base.

Go Error Handling Syntax Sugar Proposal: A Trade-off Between Brevity and Clarity

The Go community is debating a new error handling syntax proposal aimed at reducing boilerplate code. The proposal introduces a new '?' operator to handle function return errors more concisely while preserving readability. The proposal has sparked extensive community discussion, primarily focusing on whether the new syntax is clear enough and if it might encourage developers to neglect error handling. Some argue it efficiently reduces boilerplate, improving readability; others worry the new syntax is too implicit, potentially leading to harder-to-debug errors.
