anyone familiar with a way to export to html and make it editable from say a smartphone accessing a home apache server?

#192I requested tag hierarchies on the mailing list back in 2011 and here it is in the release notes.

I used orgmode for a while before importing them all into Microsoft OneNote, haven't looked back
I took my OneNote stuff into OrgMode because I think there is a higher risk of OneNote being an unreadable format in the future and/or the service being turned off.
It's a valid point, but due to accessing notes from various browsers, desktop operating systems, android phones and iPads, OneNote just makes it easier for me and how I take notes in my current computing environment compared to emacs. I tried syncing Org-Mode notes to my phone with https://f-droid.org/repository/browse/?fdid=com.matburt.mobi... for a while, but that still didn't fix all my use cases.

#194I would love to make the switch from an IDE to something like vim or emacs, I just don't know where to start.
Is there something like oh-my-zsh for emacs?
I want to be able to have all of the IDE features that I've come to know and love but for a wider range of languages.
I usually use C, Asm, Python, php, bash, and a few other languages.
don't know where to start.

Arrow keys are the worst ergonomically. You need to be able to stay as close as possible to the home position. When my RSI got really bad I noticed how bad it can be to keep reaching for the arrow keys.
I don't feel uncomfortable when reaching for the arrow keys with my right hand. But I _do_ feel very uncomfortable when I press wrong navigation key in Vim (was it h or j? My fingers don't _feel_ it), and it's really uncomfortable reaching for Ctrl for anything in Emacs, especially Ctrl-B — now _this_ is RSI-prone).
Spend a day / a week and (re)learn to properly touch type, then you will feel uncomfortable reaching for arrow keys and you won't miss that h or j.

#196I've switched to Emacs after 14 years of Vim (with the required evangelism^^). Initially it was because of Clojure, but then I tried org-mode. Now my GTD Setup (formerly Things.app), Notes for everything (formerly Evernote), Time Tracking (formerly Minco), Pomodoro Technique as well as writing slide decks (I'm a part time lecturer, so I do that a lot) are _all_ within org-mode. And not, because it's hipster, but beca…
For anyone trying not to make the same terrible mistake, you have vim-orgmode: https://github.com/jceb/vim-orgmode
A much better move is to switch to emacs and use something like evil-mode to keep your vim-fu useful. After all, you can emulate vim in emacs, but the converse is not true. :P

I actually use empty shift for parens, so comfy I almost feel guilty about it...
That sounds like something I'd like to try. Mind sharing the code from your init file that does this - assuming you are doing this in Emacs?
For this remapping and a few others I'm using Karabiner for OSX. I remap elisp commands in emacs all the time, but I don't know how to remap the keybinding for the single SHIFT to parens. The answer might be here: https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Ch...
Karabiner is pretty good though, and you can select certain keybindings to only work in emacs.
I've also remapped CONTROL to CAPS LOCK, a more common re-binding to save one's left-hand from endless torture and mutilation!
Karabiner https://pqrs.org/osx/karabiner/index.html.en On GitHub https://github.com/tekezo/Karabiner
It's also pretty simple to extend Karabiner with XML scripts.

To me the most painful position by far is all fingers on home position. If you ask a physical therapist what is the best way to sit on a chair they will say it is to switch position constantly. I'm not buying that it is opposite for a keyboard.
This was the case for me as well, until I got myself a split ergo keyboard. With conventional keyboards, you have to twist your wrists for your fingers to stay on the home row (even more so if you have big hands).

I've been using Github and org-mode to organize a lot of the notes that I collect. It's great to be able to edit notes directly on Github from a laptop, iPhone, or iPad browser. https://github.com/melling/ios_topics https://github.com/melling/ErgonomicNotes https://github.com/melling/ComputerLanguages
As far as I know you can edit any text file from the github web ui. Unless you mean that it should support org-mode features in a browser?
github renders org files. That's the important part.

Moving around will help blood flow and will get you to release the static contraction (or switch muscles). That affects your forearm, wrists etc and I don't think has anything to do with your fingers. For me, keeping at the home position limits wrist contortions that I associated with my increased pain.
This is a huge mistake. Some of my friends got RSI this way. You have to move your _arms_ when typing, not only your wrists.
