Vim has a Terminal Mode!

Since v8.1 (May 2018), Vim has shipped with a built-in terminal. See https://vimhelp.org/terminal.txt.html or type :help terminal for more info.

Why use this? Mainly because it saves you jumping to a separate terminal window. You can also use Vim commands to manipulate a shell session and easily transfer clipboard content between the terminal and files you're working on.

Anti-hype LLM reading list

Goals: Add links that are reasonable and good explanations of how stuff works. No hype and no vendor content if possible. Practical first-hand accounts and experience preferred (super rare at this point).

My own notes from a few months back.
