Lately there has been a little chafing at #emacs appearance. I'm quite happy with my low-distraction working environment, though, and don't care for file-trees or LSP helpers.

cleaned up my #emacs godmode use-package, making proper use of :hook, :custom, and :bind. It's been a long time coming.

This post put well why RSS is a more civilized way of consumming content then are the plague of "make an account" things. Plus, elfeed in #emacs has made me not miss Google Reader any more. https://lucidmanager.org/productivity/read-rss-feeds-with-emacs-and-elfeed/

There is something beautiful about an indie open source repo that look like this #emacs #git #wanderlust

#clojure #emacs interop

What is it if I match my keyboard backlight to my #emacs cursor and line-highlight colors? Is that OCD or just obsessive? Or is it madly stylish?

Beacon.el died a few versions ago, so I found my cursor amidst #emacs buffers with a package I was already using. https://orys.us/uc

Ah, good old M-x locate, #emacs using #linux locate. Even sweeter when using consult-locate to make the system file search interactive. And this one uses proper regexp.

I thought that, too. So I implemented a user app in raw html and css. I learned 3 things --

1. #emacs is really good at this repetitive, basic stuff
2. even so, the boilerplate was too much!
3. It took MUCH longer than #ClojureScript.

It better last 20 years.

HTML, CSS and JavaScript are enough!

Frameworks come and go, but those 3 stay because they alone are what make web development!

A very nice tidbit with #emacs workflow works like this: I receive a link to an article through Telega.el (A++ Telegram client). I press the shortcut to open it in readable mode with w3m (text only, bypassing 80% of paywalls) Then I invoke spray mode and speed read the thing. A few short keys and now I feel guilty whenever I read an article slowly, via scrolling in my GUI browser.
