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

Creating a campaign on Indiegogo and a wild @KevlinHenney appears 😂

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?

With the rise of the lose-lose situation with the tension around censorship vs misinformation, #Humanities work -- which is centrally about critical thinking -- is more important than ever. I am privileged to straddle the boundary between Humanities and Tech as a programmer/Digital Humanities professional. For a long time the tech side has been the socially advantaged one because it lead to high-demand well-paying jobs while humanities has had an identity crisis trying to prove its worth to a public that wants to follow the money. But now, more than ever, that critical-thinking humanites education is crucial to society. These human problems that threaten our society, those poles of censorship and misinformation, are simply out of the scope of the tech thinking. But they are not going anywhere, and the only answer is to for individuals, who are the victims and the target of both censorship and misinformation, to learn those #Humanites skills.

Big yes. dired rocks.

emacs has a utility called dired that is a joy to work with. Renaming, moving around files, etc is all trivial with it.

is merged and now all Emacs packages built with emacs-built-system in Guix finally has -pkg.el file and therefore explorable with M-x list-packages, C-h P and other related functions.
