Those charts look so clean and crisp!

YouTube is amazing, especially conference talks and music

Did not know that until you mentioned! Sometimes even legends post here on HN!

Man PG has jumped the shark completely. What the hell is that tweet - a deal is a deal, how can he implicitly say it should be ok for it not to be honoured (and with his twitter fo…

Very high uptime overall. Credits to PG and his lisp/arc inspired codebase! And to dang (who I assume does a bit of coding on it from time to time from previous comments I have rea…

Love this guide!

I prefer dired mode, it’s pretty easy to get a handle of https://ashok-khanna.medium.com/introduction-to-dired-mode-9...

Have you seen the quality of most open source software? It’s a joke. Most of it is about people pushing their own agendas and self promoting

Medium sucks balls. I know someone who was making $2-$5 per month and writing some high quality content, who got kicked out of the partner program for not having 100 followers (as …

I think of it more as dynamic extent but don’t want to be splitting hairs. Not that I don’t love how Emacs does it, but I just think it’s not that closely correlated to the notion …

A pretty bad article to be honest, just creating confusion. Emacs buffers are not the reason why functions like forward-paragraph exists. That’s just normal abstraction (in program…

That is so cool!
