I really like this, and I think others will too. Please be judicious with feature requests - so far the simplicity and ease of use is what I like most about it!

I can't believe this "refactoring" is actually presented as good—creating unnecessary abstractions for a simple function.
If anything, I would go in the opposite direction. There's no need to use parameterized variables at all. Just write out the message 3 times:
private String generateGuessSentence(char candidate, int count) {
if (count === 0) {
return "There are no " + candidate + "s";
} else if (count === 1) {
return "There is 1 " + candidate;
} else {
return "There are " + count + " " + candidate + "s";
}
}
I agree!
Are you switching to Mac?
I did - I had a Macbook air on and off on the side, but Windows was home base for 30 years. I ditched Windows for good when 11 came around, it has become untenable.

I am thinking of upgrading my work station and I suppose this is cheaper than three 5K TB monitors. But is it really as good?
LG 24" 4k monitors are like $350 - might be worth a try. I have two with my M3 Pro and they look fantastic - sharp text, good color and viewing angles.
Handling business logic in the database is often going to be an order of magnitude faster than the application layer of some of the popular language stacks (looking at you, Rails, Node, etc). It also will outlive whatever webstack of the day (and acquisition which of en requires a re-write of the application layer but keeps general database structure - been there done that).
Maybe faster... but I've met very few developers that are good DBAs (that understand procedures, cursors, permissions etc.) Database schema versioning / consistency is a whole other level of pain too.

Hey! Creator here, thanks for sharing! Let me know if anyone has questions and feel free to contribute, I've left some potential next steps in the README.
Very cool use for Vimium, I like the approach!
Interesting if this will propulse bike infra development
I see so many new $80k trucks in my area that people can’t possibly afford. They’re the last people that would ride a bike or vote to improve infrastructure like that, unfortunately.

> degradation power wise on a ICE… over 30 years
Yeah, for a Toyota that's owned by an expert car mechanic, who's hobby is doing full engine rebuilds every Tuesday.
Our BMW was a write-off after 12 years.
I think the BMW is more of the issue than anything else…

And now those unfortunate to be both unattractive and athletic, have quickly dwindling opportunities with the increasing cost of college and advances in AI and automation. The intelligent, introverted, artistic are ducked.
In the US the poor are the ones who suffer from obesity. From having too many calories available cheaply. Let that sink in. The US is so much further from "needs not being met" than anyone understands.
