This might be the biggest emacs news I've been around for. I'm so excited that these folks tracked down this bug and made it right. 🙏

Great to see @logseq giving back to the community by becoming a member of @cljtogether 😃

My favorite linear algebra+ book so far. I find the book both comprehensive and approachable, with an endearing "by the way" style of writing to soften the heaviness of the subject.

(comment on "Vector calculus, linear algebra, and differential forms")

Just enabled scrollbars for a buffer to see how far through the book I am; found that on my install, my =customize= for scrollbars isn't applying. Apparently you have to build emacs specially for this to work on a gtk system.

I gave a babashka (shell scripting, but Clojure) demo a couple days ago and one of the questions was, "Is it portable? Can it be used on different systems?" The short answer was yes, but the complete answer is that it's *more* portable than classic shell scripting

A nice snippet demonstrating why I love in (GardenCSS). Every pre-processor gives you &, but being able to use assoc/dissoc to modify a map is pretty nice.

So nitter.net/ is great if all you want to do is read Twitter. Sadly, interacting and conversations are still one of the most valuable things for me...

"I will take for granted the fact that Lisp is commonly acknowledge to be a FP language, so I will not explain why Lisp is a FP language." Oi. Time to figure out where this is commonly acknowledged (and why Rich Hickey didn't think it was all that common when he made an FP lispy). tilde.town/%7Eramin_hal9001/ar

Handy! Now I don't have to go to my phone, share to my Telegram, and open it on my PC. Just open them straight in Firefox from phone to desktop (without having to push them to a different device, open the push, etc). support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/v

I have a lot of respect for what has become over the years. Thanks @dnolen, @mfikes and many others.

Clojure is an awesome functional programming language. If you grew up on imperative OO languages then learning it is truly mind bending (and fun).

I have 30 free guided code walk throughs that will help get you started:

@_jonesian The emacs kill ring is brilliant. One of those things that alters you entire way of thinking about solutions.

Reading "Firewalls Don't Stop Dragons" it pointed out a major problem with biometrics: besides the obvious problems with physical disfigurement, you can never "change password" so data breaches can never be recovered. Once hacked or framed, forever.
