I'm liking this album a lot

The quarantine has me exhausted, being close to anyone sickens me, it's not that they are bad or especially annoying, I just want some silence and peace.

People around hate when I sleep during the day, they think I'm just being lazing, so I can't work overnight as I used to do, that was a good way to avoid all that noise...

Luego de ver la extensión "silvya" para Emacs que facilita la creación de poesía en inglés (midiendo versos y buscando rimas) quise hacerme algo parecido pero para poesía en español. De momento sólo tengo una función que mide y descompone los versos, lo probé con un puñado de sonetos de Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz y parece funcionar, al menos la métrica sale correcta, aunque algunas separaciones de sílabas no parecen del todo exactas...

"The Zen of Python", a mantra that appears as you run the following:
>>> import this

Emacs is awesome

I'm a bit surprised about the fact that Scribus can import markdown files. Now I can edit the text and apply formatting at the same time from Emacs, with all the power this implies, such as moving by sentences or words, having the undo-tree extension, and swiper to search text using regular expressions.

I just fixed a couple of annoying bugs in my heavily patched window manager (dwm). I had to edit a couple of lines in the source and introduce an if statement somewhere else... I can't believe I couldn't find the solution before.

Hoy aprendí un par de métodos para eliminar archivos viejos, no tenía idea de que el comando find fuera tan poderoso.

Today I spent some time doing some research on the history of the awk program. I was a bit concerned by the fact that it was privative software. On GNU/Linux we actually run gawk, which is the GNU version, and it turns out it is the only implementation that takes locales seriously. It also apparently includes a debugger and some features not found in awk nor nawk.
