It's deceptive to look at a document like this and think that you'd have to use all of that knowledge and configuration in order to use org mode for planning your tasks. Much like Rome, this document wasn't written in a day.

That's actually pretty cool. Do you have an automated setup to do that, or is it manual for every "post"?

`git status` always shows you some of three things: files not tracked by git, tracked files with modifications that are not staged, and tracked files with modifications that are staged. You can stash tracked files with modifications, or tra

I get it, not everybody has the mindset of living in one tool — I didn't either, before I converted to Emacs, which is a relatively recent development. Maybe 3-4 years, though I did use it ~7 years ago once, and then even further back,

I think incremental commits are among my favorites in magit. It's so quick and easy to stage and commit selectively. The other thing I love about it is discoverability of git features. Did you know that you can stash index and working

Actually, I just use ox-confluence, which means I can export (narrowed) org-mode trees to confluence. It exports it to a buffer that I cut-and-paste into the web page. I think confluence.el is no longer maintained, sadly. Maybe an interesti

You can do one thing in JetBrains: edit code. That's it. In Emacs, I read my mail, I organise my agenda, I write technical reports, blog posts, I wrote my entire thesis in org-mode. I collect research notes in Emacs, and a journal. I d

Whilst you're not wrong about what you value about a programming "language", I'd say there is an important distinction to be drawn between two things people tend to conflate: the language and the runtime . Perhaps a

The exact scenario you're describing is a great use case for tiling WMs. I couldn't imagine doing it with windows that occlude each other. In fact, I've been using tiling WMs for over a decade now, and I find my colleagues&#x

You've got to change them anyway. Might as well sit them on the potty. It adds maybe a minute to the whole procedure. And every time something lands in the potty, you'll be overjoyed (and your baby just might pick up on that, too.

I don't understand people who potty train that late. What are you, masochists? You can start potty training around the time they can sit, probably 6 months. Babies have a pee-reflex, where they start peeing as soon as cold air hits the

That's the nature of these spare time one (wo)man side projects: packaging a piece of software for a wide variety of distributions and platforms is tedious and boring, so unless there's a large community (or money) involved, you h

But that's between cities. Fwiw, I'm in Berlin by train. But by car would have been an option, too. But in the city ? There are so many better options!

Java will not get HKTs in yours and my lifetime. What might get HKTs is Kotlin. There's a proposal brought forward by the Arrow people that has attracted a lot of attention. https://github.com/Kotlin/KEEP/pu

It's worth pointing out that Kotlin has a very powerful monadic abstraction besides nullable: suspend functions, aka coroutines. Arrow KT builds on those to bring you a quasi he notation. They even abuse Kotlins very limited destructur

Seeing as DRM music is lossy in practically all of the cases, getting lossless music has always been synonymous with getting DRM free music. I don't have a Spotify subscription. For me, bandcamp saved music.

But that's a truism. Good coders write good code. Heureka! The real gain is to be had in pushing the mudball stage as far into the product's life cycle in absolute terms as possible. In that sense, nothing is required , but some

Autocasting. Autocasting was a cool and newbie friendly idea in principle. It just turned out to cause such horrible bugs in real code that no sane person would still argue its merits. It also leads to stupid notions of thruthiness (google
