One of the issues with the (and which is just a great big text-oriented repl) is that it is additive in nature; it usually takes major effort or a restart to REMOVE things once they've been added (thinking on plugins which modify app state).

Any users on the frontend?

I sometimes notice that Emacs freezes up when I press a key like d to delete (adding the tag:trashing) for a couple of seconds. It's hard to track down, but I believe that I run into a conflict with a cron job updating the notmuch database, and Emacs waits for the notmuch tag change command to finish, which waits for the cron job to finish.

Does that sound likely? How do y'all debug and improve this?

@ctietze M-x profiler-start RET, choose mem+cpu. Do the thing that freezes. Then M-x profiler-report RET

Which is the best comprehensible way of representing land use in different models, knowing that the most optimistic (dark grey, "Bekels 2") is around 9% of the patch and least-optimistic (light gray, "Piggott") is ca. 40%?

I like the simplicity of the v.1 pie chart, but I don't know if the adding pieces is as obvious to the reader as to me. And I want to use this kind of representations throughout the thesis, so I want to choose good one.

version 2. a donut chart representing the same data as version 1 (with different pattern for not used land).
version 3. a donut chart representing the same data as version 1. the first model is multiplied to avoid the apparent differences between most- and least-optimistic models. light green area represents land not used.

@smiergahttu pie charts are never a good idea. Try bar chart instead.

Okay here's another Transient I've made a while back, in this case for Avy. A bit esoteric, but this has enabled me to get a lot more out of Avy than just using avy-goto-word-1 or avy-goto-char-timer. Wondering out loud if I should publish this on MELPA.

Also yes, I've read Karthik's post on using Avy wrong. I readily admit I'm not sophisticated enough to put filter-select-act into practice.

mykhaylo,
@mykhaylo@fosstodon.org avatar

@kickingvegas frankly I don’t think that putting transients on MELPA is a good idea. It’s not really a library, rather a use case of a library.

mykhaylo,
@mykhaylo@fosstodon.org avatar

@hajovonta @kickingvegas sure they are a great idea. I just don’t think they should be on MELPA, but admins will figure it out.

Rant:

I love retro games, especially SNES/NES/N64 and GB games.
Modern games, except for some titles, do not fascinate me at all anymore.
This lead to being able to run machines that are in the "older" realm. Not having a dedicated graphics card can be a blessing for sure. Energy costs drastically go down and one can run quiet systems.
Besides, playing retro games is not taxing at all to the system - any system will do fine.
I miss the great stories older games told... nostalgia hits again.

Finally released the first interview recorded as part of The Foreigner podcast.

It so happened that this interview is in Portuguese (with English subtitles) and is mostly about the history of the revolutionary years in Portugal.

I hope you enjoy it:

Holy sh*t, Europeans are right. Americans are too loud and incredibly entitled. On a tour of Norway and I’m so ready to escape my fellow countrymen…

This morning we caught a group of them actually putting their hands to their face so they could peer into a private home. When did we go batsh*t crazy? Were we all raised in a barn?

mykhaylo,

@greenorchids there’s no such thing as Europeans. And even though it’s true that American tourists are quite loud, with all due respect you wouldn’t even notice them when the Spanish are around 😂

developers, is there an easy way to securely share sensitive data (eg. login credentials) locally between two on the same device? And if not, what about non-sensitive data (like how the or whatever they're called now share themes)? 🔏

Basically it's a family of apps with a common login and we're trying to avoid the user having to log in separately on each one. We're using , if that matters ⚙️

(If all this was on it'd be so simple 😑)

Instead of enabling Evil mode globally, I now have it turned on only in buffers with major modes derived from prog-mode or text-mode.

Since Evil is disabled in non-editing buffers like Magit and Dired (where it was a nuisance), I got rid of Evil collection and cut my startup time in half.

People using #Obsidian (and similar) don't even understand when I'm writing about #lockin situations.

If those services could be easily replaced by any Markdown edtor and a decent sync mechanism, why are they using those services in the first place? 🤷

I'm going to blog about that to make it more clearer.

Request: please help me find a grant

I have a friend who is most of the way done making an open source app that handles supply chain interactions without centralization. It uses a SSB backend so there aren’t any central servers and it’s not crypto. There’s no angle for him to get rich doing this, it’s just a good idea that he wants to exist in the world. Written in Clojure.

Current code: https://github.com/nanomonkey/scratch

@flypaper it’s not immediately clear what the idea is to be honest, but maybe this will come with a more detailed readme. What is however immediately obvious is an absence of license.

I'm using since 2008, I've been maintaining an Emacs bundle since 2010 (currently working on v4.1). Emacs is genuinely one of the programs that still gives me the goosebumps. After all these years, I still learn new stuff about it that blows my mind.

Good news and bad news for users if :

They're working on a DB version in parallel that will provide better scalability, performance and realtime (). They'll charge for RTC.

Unfortunately, this seems to be the end for markup as they are implementing only now and a conversion feature later on. 😞

Therefore, logseq is not an option for me any more and I'll need to think about a migration strategy for my wife.

@publicvoit @skizye maybe you could write an article on the difference of the approach with denote? Because strictly speaking denote is not about zettelkasten, it’s about naming files.

mykhaylo,
@mykhaylo@fosstodon.org avatar

@publicvoit @skizye thanks for the article. If for example you want to make a note on using lsp server in emacs, which then relates to emacs, lsp, python and clojure (for example), where do you put it? Or how do you label it?
