I started using Emacs a few months ago and I love it. I think I'd struggle day to day now without Org Mode. I love how easily I can switch from something in Org Mode to something like a Clojure REPL, then to a Powershell window and to

I liked the old site better. It looked like a site about Rust programming language. It had the benefits of the language on it, this new site doesn't look like a site for programmers at all. It now just looks like every other generic lo

What an insufferable way to present an article! Having to click next to load each paragraph and image is just idiotic. I'm not even sure the pictures really having anything to do with the paragraph for the image. Idiotic.

How does she know the guy was only asking because she was a woman? Maybe he was just an ass and would have asked the same of a guy, in the same patronizing way. As for this being a reason we don't have more women in stem, please. This

I read and loved "On The Road" but had to give up on Desolation Angels it just read like an incoherent stream of consciousness and felt like such hard going.

I had a conversation once with a friend about a book I was reading. She asked what it was about, and I told her. She said, and I quote, "that sounds like one of those thinking books. I don't like them." I miss her.
