VSCode + Vim keybindings + Metals for Scala development. I used to use IntelliJ (paid and free) + the Scala plug-in, and Pycharm (free). For Scala I’d be fine with either VSCode or Jetbrains, just depends on who is paying (or not paying). I suspect that Python support in VSCode is a lot better these days so it might be a viable option to Pycharm. I need to check out VSCodium, if it works well with Metals and gets frequent updates I might make the switch.

Harper’s Magazine (not to be confused with Harper’s Bazaar). https://harpers.org/ There’s Granta for mostly long-form fiction. A quarterly. It’s excellent but more like a periodic paperback book than a magazine.
