That's not a good counterexample. Formal languages are called 'formal' because they have rigorously defined semantics. The 'undefined' parts, if anything, reveal that most of the e…

Magit introduced me to them in the first place. :-D

From a Lacanian perspective: They do it because the configuration loop itself is the Drive. The 'better working environment' is just the Object a (the carrot on the stick), but the…

yes and no. you certainly don't have many pre-defined keybindings, but meow tries to not conflict with normal emacs keybindings so you don't need special ones anyway.

Congratulations! Personally though I've been running the igc branch... ;-)

I agree with giving users control, but unfortunately I cannot agree with the move to c-ts-mode. And I cannot disagree more with associating CC mode with "legacy" when it's objectiv…

Actually, with emacs 29 it should come out of the box. Open any python file (emacs has a built-in python-mode), M-x eglot, and you are golden.

It's interesting to see African input methods taking inspiration from a Chinese IME, RIME. Would like to know more about this!

I think I'm for Turing-completeness. Let me try to give my reasons... 1. No, using Turing-complete scripts does not prevent information extraction and meaningful automation. You ca…

It seems you are very ideology-driven, but no, corporations are not moving production out of China because "China bad". It's just because labor costs in China have risen due to its…

The author isn't wrong. Europe is falling behind, and people should not pretend it's a good thing: the current European life style ("more to life than work") depends on excessive i…

I kind of agree with you, and (as a hobbyist linguist) I believe a diversity of languages is a beautiful thing, but it creates unnecessary friction for business and about everythin…

Emacs natively supports copying an online link to the current node. It is bound to `C`. I also think I'm obliged to share this tip: you can write a function that copies a Markdown-…

It's ok to use Discord for pragmatic reasons. But please don't make it the only, or the "official" one.

The whole article reads like an ode to Emacs. :-)

I've been using Starship for quite some time, and it's awesome! Definitely recommend it to anyone who wants a fast, modern, and rich prompt. Besides the product, the community is p…

This is unethical if (1) the condition was not made clear before the issue is written, and (2) the user cannot delete their report before it is published. (It is not in the current…

I'm not sure if this counts for "robbery", but similar stories happen every day in the FOSS community, usually for very boring reasons, e.g. copyright assignments, or in the author…

AFAIU this is a discoverability problem, not that emacs isn't featureful ootb. Some of emacs's built-in features (e.g. undo in region) are even not supported at all by other editor…

Funny they haven't copied the full Chinese model yet. In China, the forwarding system can ban any website they don't like, and you have to copy the URL manually to visit it. 5 seco…
