murmurhash VS direnv

If you have very large dicts, you might find this hash table I wrote for spaCy helpful: https://github.com/explosion/preshed . You need to key the data with 64-bit keys. We use this wrapper around murmurhash for it: https://github.com/explosion/murmurhash

There's no docs so obviously this might not be for you. But the software does work, and is efficient. It's been executed many many millions of times now.

Some notes: We don't need Sha256 and not evey base64; nothing will happen if keys will not distribute very equally. we could take MMH3; googling "python murmurhash" gives 2 interesting results; and since both use the same cpp code, let's take the one with most stars Other options would be to simply do (% NUM_SHARDS) or even shift right (however must have shards count == power of 2).

I think direnv already does a good job in this space, and it's already available in your package manager.

I switched from asdf to mise after a comment on lobste.rs[1] suggested I do so a few months ago, and I have been very happy with it.

It sands off some of asdf's sharp UI edges and provides a somewhat larger but still reasonable feature set; I've also replaced most of my direnv[2] usage with it.

The mise -> asdf comparison page is useful[3]

I also made the export diff configurable, motivated by this post: https://github.com/direnv/direnv/pull/1233

Nice.

For years I've been using [direnv](https://direnv.net/) for this, setting environment variables which git picks up. This looks like a more feature complete equivalent, although to be honest I only really need switching of committer email and the SSH key used.

Direnv, for the uninitiated, loads and unloads environment variables when directories are entered and exited. Under every project folder there is a `$PROJ_DIR/.envrc` which contains:

buffer-env: A pure-Elisp version of the direnv utility. Useful to make Emacs aware of Python virtualenvs (which, judging by the questions posted here, is unfortunately still a complication for a lot of people). Similar to (and inspired by) envrc, but doesn't require the direnv program.

You can look at direnv to see this in action as they wrote shell hooks that get loaded into the shell profile and are executed on every prompt. https://direnv.net/

Yes, most Nix users employ https://direnv.net or the equivalent for your IDE of choice. Emacs for instance has https://github.com/purcell/envrc which set per-buffer variables.
