org is absolutely the gateway drug to the whole Emacs ecosystem. I started using org after 16 years on vim and slowly found myself replacing my entire text/code workflow with it. I stopped using vim at all about 5 years ago and I never

you are right and thanks for adding on my ELI5. TBH I never used nixOS, only guix, which does not use a central key to sign packages, and uses signed commits ( https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/Commit-Ac

I am going to try to ELI5, but the concepts run very deep. Both nixOS and Guix are different to 'regular' distros in the way that they are declarative: there is a file that describes the full OS: every user, every package, every s

NixOS and Guix are in some areas about a decade ahead of Mac and Windows. It's incredible what you can do with those (I can't work on new projects without guix shell anymore). It almost has the same feeling that in the 90s, when d

I have a ridiculous amount of projects on production using CLJS on node, with occasional use of npm modules. I would consider this prod ready.

I highly recommend just doing Doom emacs with evil as a daily driver (that's similar of what I did) and then going through the Emacs from Scratch series from Systems Crafters https://systemcrafters.net/emacs-from-scratc

I did not know Bhutan, or Thailand had referenda on the composition of their government and decided to stay monarchic. Last time they asked in Norway it was roughly 120 years ago, around the time the Model T was all the rage. Things have ch

I think the vast majority of people in any country would prefer a Head of State that is chosen by popular vote rather than by Royal Sperm. Changing an icon may cost a bucket, next to nothing, although monarchies are usually very opaque (reg

Egan has been my favorite author for years. I like his earlier works (like this one) much more than his last books. I have the impression most books he wrote and published in the last 15 years require a Ph.D. in either Mathematics or Theore

My mom is BPD, she is a text book case. And I have been in therapy for almost a decade because of her emotional abuse. As many others have said, this paper is definitely beyond absurd.

After the Ethereum merge, the Energy Usage of any ETH token is negligible. Do you have any source for this "NFTs are damaging because how much electricity they demand" or is just plain old Hacker News "Crypto Bad" fud?

That was almost three-quarters of a century ago, the US is a very different, chaotic, and dysfunctional country (see: California High-Speed Train Fiasco). We can't build anything anymore.

omg this comment is amazing, I am using IELM almost everyday as a REPL for emacs (it's not uncommon for me to open buffers from either eshell or ielm directly). Thanks so much for your work on this.
