The other thing I meant to say, it's too easy to accidentally mess up an org file while editing it. Manual errors are the most common source of the corruption you mentioned, IME. That doesn't happen with structured editors like pa

Using `cat` is fine but having a format-aware cli dumper would be better. And I never edit org files outside an editor that knows how to handle org files. I think Clojure's EDN format as used in Roam and Athens does a better job since

I agree with what you say about IDEs, but Emacs' "advantage" over other text editors is that it is only superficially a text editor. It's really more of an operating system.

What is the advantage of plain text? Other than that Emacs is bad at editing other file types.

The problem is that the two incompatible packages are only weakly "related": they're just two packages in the same space that may share some authors. What if I want to use code from both packages?

No, installing jinja2 doesn't break my jinja-using code. Installing 2.0 does.

In cases where the name is ambiguous you can use another name like python-oauth-v2.

The difference is whether you break old code for users.

No I don't, I can always stop maintaining a library. But I don't have to actively break it either.

by neolog 5y ago
Why break the existing library instead of making a new one? Concretely, why not do like jinja2 and psycopg2?

That's an interesting point. However, I'm not sure victim privacy is the reason for CSAM regulations. Rather, it's reducing the creation of CSAM by discouraging its exchange. For example, suppose instead of deleting/repo

I guess it depends if you consider columns values or expressions. A dynamically typed number column would not accept non-number values.

by neolog 5y ago
This is not dynamic types. In a dynamic type system, runtime values have types. This is weak typing.

What does "systems" mean here? Does it mean "game"?

That's just stating the claim again, not providing evidence. How many browser extensions have I written? How many emacs extensions? Fwiw I did everything in Emacs for many years. Regardless of the differences in the core platform, the

Not joking. Emacs can't even do wysiwyg word processing, let alone the kind of interactive environments that browsers support. Chromium/Electron is a Javascript machine, with graphical debugger; network monitoring; the world'

Emacs is a text-based editor so it cannot be customized as much as a browser can.
