I just wanted to share this because it looks sooo good! Also keep in mind this is emacs on TERMINAL.

What theme are you using, looks gorgeous!

Running Emacs in daemon mode accessed via ssh (work development machines) was my trusted development setup.

Java doesn't love you

Emacs loves ❤ U, too.

Hi. This looks great! Congrats.

I set up my lsp-java and it works fine. Lsp server is running, compilation is good. I can compile and run a single class but I can not run a class if an object is created and object is in another class. (I imported the project a few times.) It's a basic java project, the one I created via intellij. Nothing special in pom.xml.

Can you please help me to run it.

(Not an emacs expert, simplicity is appreciated.)

Thanks!

Threads like this make me wanna try emacs

Don't. Its a black hole and your ROI will be negative.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

This was almost my reply lolz. Is it possible for opposing opinions to be correct?

Me preparing my teaching using Emacs/org-mode. I don't know any other software that gives me this perfect balance between eye candy (although I had to work for that) and extreme usability. I mean, sure, TeXmacs or LyX may make the notes even a bit prettier, but good luck navigating them or using those for organization of, like, anything.

Once you learn how to navigate, customize, workaround and enhance a system in a way that fits your need, yes, good luck using another tool that you now need to learn how to navigate, customize, workaround and enhance to use in a way that fits your needs, ha!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Well there's the teensy-weensy difference that emacs/org is designed with effective navigation and organization as two of its main purposes, while TeXmacs or LyX are built for different purposes and have no ambition of shifting their scope to navigation/organization.

Like... PowerPoint is Turing complete so I could just use that too, but there's a reason I don't use that for coding or project management and it's not just that I'm conservative...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Keep in mind that I did not mention either of those by name, you did, so you're debating yourself rather than me. I'm just saying that making a tool, any tool, work best for your use case doesn't mean you can't achieve the same result with another tool, or set of tools after similar customization etc.

OT question: As a thought experiment you can have a black hole with a schwarzschild radius long enough that the gravitational pull of the black hole to say 1 kgr is 10N, which is exactly the gravitational pull of earth on 1 kgr on the surface of the planet. (I know it needs huge mass, but it's a thought experiment). So, when that 1 kgr passes through the event horizon (and the pull is 10N) what exactly forbids it from coming out again?

sorry this isn't related to the post but if you don't capitalize the C in "calculator" i will lose my mind

Can't be unseen

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

my bad 😅

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (2 children)

That's... very commendable. Of course, nothing to do with emacs, but hey, whatever works for you. Also, "dark mode" is a myth.

First, you're imagining. Second, having to switch all day between your dark modes and the rest of the world (sites, documents et al) that are on white background is much more "fatiguing" to your eyes, but you don't notice that because you convinced yourself that drawing colorful characters on a blackish background is better.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I try light mode every couples of weeks because of exactly that reason ("rest of the world is light mode") but after a few days I can't stand it for code editing, maybe is my monitor.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Maybe, but as you are aware and tried and decided to stick to what you were using, then by all means, carry on! I have no qualms with you.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

What are you talking about?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

That this screenshot could belong in any of a 100 other forums dedicated to a 100 other programs. What about it has anything to do with emacs?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Oh I see. What do you mean by “dark mode is a myth”?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Don't we all?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

I love emacs as well... But man, would I never use it for Java :-D

Thanks! I've really enjoyed my setup for the past 1.5 years. Switching to terminal from GUI had some hickups but in general it's going good.
