It has lost it's original meaning, and is now a colloquial phrase meaning "outside the limits of acceptable behavior or judgment."
The Norman conquest is ancient history now, if someone is offended I suspect they are just too easily offended or simply trolling.
@nil tl;dr tempest in a teapot
@srijan Apologies, I took a quick look at your github, thought I saw helm in your init.
Are you sure you are measuring scrolling? I tried profiling and got similar report as yours, but I realized I didn't spend much time scrolling compared to time in the minibuffer to run M-x profiler-stop. When I scrolled for a longer time, it looked completely different. However I'm not seeing any scrolling slowness. (I'm also using vertico/orderless).
Probably better practice would be to bind a key to profile-stop, but I didn't try it since I'm not seeing the issue you are seeing.
@srijan Sounds like poor interaction between packages. I suspect it's with helm but that's probably just my personal bias against big complicated packages 🤷
@srijan Scrolling in general, or just in the minibuffer?
@davep Not to minimize your difficulties, but rust configuration went extremely smoothly for me using eglot and rustic. Shocked actually how easy it was. C++ on the other hand...
@carnage4life Winter is coming. Musicians may have to subsist on getting paid for live performances. I actually feel for them since I sort of do that 5 days a week. It's kind of rough at times, commutes are rough, audiences can be cruel. Pay is mediocre unless you are a star....

There seem to be many #Emacs users here in the fedi, so maybe some of you could help me find an answer to my question.
In 1981 Emacs paper, Stallman made the argument that "formal parameters cannot replace dynamic scope", which was an argument for elisp's preference fir dynamic scope.
Yet to my knowledge (and I think I read that in HOPL paper by @sperbsen and @monnier) elisp eventually gravitated towards lexical scoping.
I wonder whether this decision was based on some refutation of Stallman's argument, and if so, can the counterargument be found anywhere in the web?
@yisraeldov @rostre@emacs.ch @ramin_hal9001@emacs.ch haha fixing my emacs config what vim is for!
@hyde I wrote a bash function I call gcd which allows cd relative to the current git repo root. There is also bash completion for it. Very handy at times. I’m on my phone rn but you can see in my GitHub dotfiles repo same user name.

@EyalL @AstraKernel @edward
Honestly it was not even close to an issue. Mainly because we set tabs to be visible in our editors (vscode, vim, and emacs) and code review tools (gerrit I think it was). And we were all pretty good developers. If you have poor tooling or developers I can see where it might be a problem 🤷
@EyalL @AstraKernel @edward I've seen it done with one company I worked for, it worked. There was a good code review culture there, so I think that will be required.

filtering eurovision what ever the fuck that is, like a boss.
@galdor@emacs.ch good lord 
Bah, rustfmt.toml: hard_tabs=true, use them only for indent, and then everyone can be happy.

For all you non-native English speakers out there, “read” is pronounced like “lead”, and “read” is pronounced like “lead”.
