Well, to make a long story and potential flame war short: My original post was not about VIM or Emacs. It was stating happiness about an editor (Lime) that tries to be easy to get started, yet is open source.

Good luck my good friend with having tied your professional fortune to a small company that you are not affiliated with. This is not politics, this is simply dangerous and I do feel that way every time I see someone with a copy of Sublime.

The headline on the Landing Page says "Elegant Free Open-Source". I for one applaud these great selling propositions. And I'm speaking after using Emacs and VIM for 15 years having not seen one other editor concept that was u

Honest question: How is it that GMail is perceived faster than a locally running MUA like mu4e which is quoted in the article? I'm actually using mu4e for exactly this reason: It's so much faster than any web client could ever be.

In my startup (voicerepublic.com) everyone works part time. Technical and operational side are incredibly complex, yet with a part-time team we managed easily. In fact, I could have been a 100% CTO (which of course means 180%^^), yet I cho

We are actually using this in our company and couldn't be happier. We're using Emacs ledger-mode and git to keep track of everything. Ledger is also tied into our billing system. A couple of shell scripts and Latex easily beats ev

Yet, if you do know Lisp, you realize that not too many languages feature a true REPL with the R not just reading in Text that gets evaluated, but actually being a Reader. So, we actually did lose some things with the new and shiny REPLs -

I'm a lecturer myself and am curious: How do your lecturers deal with the situation that students have at least three different operating systems (LINUX, Mac, Windows)? Setting up a VM will make 2/3rds cringe in my experience - se

Hi Gerald S9 really looks nice - however, it is not self contained in the sense that I was referring to. p_slides is essentially a single HTML file (with the other assets hosted somewhere). For S9, Ruby and usage of the command line is requ

Ok, I do understand now. In my career, I have not met a 800x600 projector - but the problem scales (pun intended^^), of course. Would you be willing to share your hacky mess or make a PR? I really do get what you're referring to now an

Thanks for that hint! p_slides is explicitly dumb, though. It has no requirements to install additional software, pre-compile anything or run a server. This way it just works for many lecturers on different Operating Systems with very diffe

Thanks a bunch^^ Markdeep looks totally awesome - I'm going to give it a try, soon! Now is midnight, though, and my fiance wants me to quit the computer^^ Thanks again, I'm looking forward to be able to include diagrams and have t

Could you elaborate? How does it not scale? It's using bootstrap for styling, so there's that. Me and a couple of lecturer peers have been using it in lectures for classes of all sizes which includes different kinds of beamers. As

Looks interesting, on a first try the demo presentation didn't work on my iPhone 6s - and you need to install additional software. p_slides is explicitly dead simple. hovercraft looks nice, though - I'll probably check it out late

Looks interesting, but is a completely different thing - it's a SaaS solution whereas p_slides is static files that you can put into version control and work collaboratively with your peers. For me, that's a godsend regarding the

* Out of the box reveal-js does not support Markdown Slides. Yes, of course they do, but you'll have to write HTML per slide and then embed Markdown. p_slides is Markdown online. * reveal-js is _much_ bigger whereas p_slides relies on

a) Thx^^ b) Very good point. I just made it so that you can now click on the example and see it unfold in your browser without having to clone the repo. Thank you for the feedback!

Shameless plug: I'm a lecturer and have scratched this itch some time ago with a pet project that a couple lecturers are using now: https://github.com/munen/p_slides/ It doesn't ship it's own editor

Thank you, Sir, for letting me in on qutebrowser. Being a VIM and I3 user myself, I'll give it a try and look forward to the enjoyment of a simple, yet modern browser. Plus, I agree with your sentiment.

I'm doing the same thing. Two years ago I started to do most of my work in a Virtual Machine in Debian Linux. Looks like my gut was right - I'll wait until 10.10 or my MBP doesn't work anymore and then I'll have to do a

It is, but Clojure uses it, because it cannot really do Tail Call Optimization due to constraints on the JVM. Therefore "recur" is required to keep the Stack from overflowing.
