patience

people who used emacs for 20 years still learn some stuff :)

join irc, or mastodon or any place to chat with people, it helps getting some things faster

watch emacsrocks, videos from a few years ago but excellent ratio between short demo and long term insight :)

I've been learning transient basics to improve velocity at work. A bit hard to swallow at first but very nice. Thanks

let's revamp emacs early manual

I should have embedded the date, it was more for historical value :)

I often thought that emacs should have a live repl game tutorial

like clojure koans but as an exploration of basic emacs abilities, then regular editing abilities, then fancier, then edebug and defmacro

well vim has always started with minimal core

but when subtext popped, there were some stuff, I forgot what, but a few ergonomics ideas (like projectile, multiple-cursors, maybe nicer fuzzy search) that weren't present in emacs. took a few months for someone to make it happen .. and that was it.

emacs can absorb most ideas, unless it's something that would break the whole architecture

heheh

99% of can emacs do are to be answered by a firm yes, and an additional "it's built-in since 198*"

ah good old magnars mc

from vacation to real vacation

I never took care of setting this aspect of emacs properly. Thanks a ton
