Does this means that it will likely be in a release prior to version 28? I'm not too familiar with Emacs release scheduling.

There's different things to "not care" about. It sounds like you're thinking "I don't care" means they don't care about the quality of their work output, which I agree is not good. But the original qu

In general commercial note-taking apps are not at all simple; they have similar features to those you named. Also consider that automatic syncing across devices (at least, if not also across platforms) is practically a sine qua non , which

You dropped the critical word from that quote, "framework". The point they're making is that people use Emacs frameworks like Doom, Prelude, Spacemacs... to lessen the configuration they do compared to "plain" Ema

One wonders then why they need so much of this imaginary value.

I think it's just inherent in the personality types that are successful at software. We are good at understandinging complex things, and we like it; it makes us feel good to master them, and creating one is a special variety of mastery

That's a good (and pithy!) take, although it does seem like a bit of a Dunning-Kreuger tarpit. There's a lot of implicit context packed into that "why", depending on the subject.

Thanks! I will read it later.

Could you link the article you mention? I missed it making its rounds, but I would love to read it.

This is exactly the point. If no-one even notices without being explicitly told, then it's a completely innocuous distinction from the point of view of the non-halal majority.

This rule only applies when the majority don't care about the outcome, though. Halal meat: small minority cares deeply , majority doesn't care or even notice; therefore it's easiest for all meat to be halal. If the minority

The main reason, I think, that Swift strings have `count` is that they conform to the `Collection` protocol. Swift's stdlib has a pervasive "generic programming" philosophy, enabled by various protocol heirarchies. So, given

On the performance/stability of Elisp front, I just heard about remacs, which is a fork that's starting by porting all the C to Rust: https://github.com/remacs/remacs Still in early stages, but I think that&#

Perhaps having your own email domain and therefore many accounts would be a solution? A secondary problem with email is that businesses/web services (free greeting cards, etc.) encourage friends and family to sign you up for junk mail.

No doubt this is old news to a lot of people here, but I somehow just found out about it today. ( https://xkcd.com/1053/ ) It looks like a good excuse to pick up Rust again.

Honestly, it's kept me from contributing to packages, too. I have no problem with the outcome, my patch being "owned" by the project -- that would be my intention by contributing. I just have a strong dislike of bureaucracy

I have to disagree -- in part -- about the advice system: used sparingly, I think it's one of the killer features that lets me tweak emacs exactly how I want it. That said, yes, I think packages should be (at least) discouraged fro

Well, that's fair; for a catastrophic outcome 1 in 3 are not odds you'd want to take. I thought "only" because I have a sense, based on conversations with other people, that the perception is that this particular virus
