We chafe at the "impurity of the syntax artifacts that have to be injected to do whitespace editing."

Enjoying catching up on old episodes of the @JacekSchae #Clojurescript Podcast, I enjoyed an insightful interview with the Shaun Labron, author of Parinfer who is apparently no longer on Twitter. Now what I want to know is how SmartParens came about as the #emacs next thing. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s2-e1-lisp-editing-with-shaun-lebron/id1461500416?i=1000448529731

I've always been fascinated to hear @stuarthalloway talk about using an #emacs environment that changes once/decade. Enjoying catching up on @JacekSchae #Clojurescript Podcast, Great interview about his insight into Spartan IDE and clean mental attics. https://soundcloud.com/user-959992602/s2-e2-repl-with-stuart-halloway

Modern day digital struggles: "listening" online includes checking Telegram * 2, Git*, Slack, MatterMost, Twitter * 3, Mastodon * 3, RSS feeds, Reddit, Zulip, and every once in a while, voicemail and text messages. I can use #emacs and #email to reduce the surface area of 8 of those, so that's something to stem the flood.

Gotta say, I really love my #emacs buffler setup with exwm, helping me easily get around my buffer groups. This takes care of what some people use a desktop, task bar, or dashboard for.

I love #RSS #feeds, and read them using the excellent #emacs #elfeed. WordPress creates RSS feeds by default, and if you know the trick it's easy to subscribe. But can I suggest people make more obvious links to these? What is an entry-level RSS reader you would recommend for subscribing to RSS feeds, and a pitch for why people should know about this option?

Email is something of a pleasure with #emacs + notmuch + gnus + getmail. A dozen addresses all funneled and sorted in one mail client, quickly created, replied, removed, searched, or added to my daily agenda. After years I would feel handicapped to go back to a web interface.

My fingers slipped and #emacs #orgmode asked me for my latitude and longitude. I got scared and C-g out of there, but someday, I'll figure out why it did that...

I have my student employees daily work hours in my orgmode agenda. It is easy to turn an a filter to show just those entries for the day, so that I know when I can meet them online. #emacs #orgmode win!

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!
