I stumbled on to LaTeX in my undergrad, following my switch to Linux and Emacs. I switched from Open Office, and use it for 2-3 letters per week plus all homework. My favorite thing about it is definitely that it is amenable to version control . Now I usually use Orgmode to transpile to LaTeX (or whatever else I want to transpile to).

Hylang would be a more solid example, since it is a literal lisp that does just that.

Great work from Tony Aldon in converting both the and the sites to orgmode! Much easier for me to read and bookmark and copy now.

Slackware was my first Linux distro back in the mid-90s. Glad to see it still going strong! twitter.com/volkerdi/status/14

Happy Saturday, beautiful people ♥

Here's a nifty trick I discovered.

Let's say you have a function that is a part of a long chain of function calls (like API request handlers) and you want to experiment with it, but you don't know what data to pass it.

How do y'all do it? This feels very dirty😂😂😂

My daughter is drawing using Huion from @HuionTab and Krita from @Krita_Painting on top of Slackware 15.0 released by @volkerdi running Plasma 5 from @kdecommunity. What a nice open source collaboration

Learning Clojure has been one of the best decisions I've ever made. It's a uniquely powerful language that has allowed me to achieve things I never thought possible.

It worked! , entering a standup report. Orgmode:
<f3> (start macro recording)
C-k (cut line, undo to put it back)
<C-x o> (other-window) to Firefox
Paste (yank, C-y), then TAB to go to the next field
<C-x o> (other-window) back to my orgmode file
next-line
<f4> to save the recording
<f4> repeatedly to do all this again.

I didn't expect it to work after the jump to a non-emacs place!

TIL: code can run at (as opposed to _near_) speed. Here we see the benchmark results of two of my Eratosthenes implementations, one in Clojure and one in Java (basically a port of the Clojure one).

Sometimes with Figwheel I use (reset-autobuild) to cause it to rebuild the JS -- either to restart a broken thing, or usually to print for me the reason it broke. Anyone know the ShadowCLJS equivalent?

How about those times when the error messages are bad? I don't mean too-little or too-much info; I mean WRONG info. It said, "error on line 43, in this context" and, having solved the issue, no, that was not the context, and the error was actually on 205.

The true reason for conservative estimates of how long the feature will take:

1. "No problem. I can fix that in, like, 10 minutes."
2. Server permission issues, forgotten passwords.
3. Git config issues, this server doesn't have your SSH key. Github might not, either, and Github no longer allows access without keys.
4. File permission issues; file for your code is owned by Root.
5. Root doesn't have SSH keys set up for Git.
6. My 2FA setup just ran out of tokens, so I can't connect.
7. My VPN is failing with issue X. Can't connect to our remote server without that.
8. My browser issue Y where some content is invisible. Can't log in.
9. My editor is having an issue where the GUI fails for for reason Z. Must fix.
10. Our server admin just had a death in the family so is unavailable.
11. Our business is having a resource semi-freeze for the past month, so you can't have that URL you wanted.

Did I say 10 minutes?
