LinuxWalt (@lnxw48a1) {3EB165E0-5BB1-45D2-9E7D-93B31821F864} (lnxw48a1@nu.federati.net)'s status on Sunday, 10-May-2020 00:34:00 UTC LinuxWalt (@lnxw48a1) {3EB165E0-5BB1-45D2-9E7D-93B31821F864} @geniusmusing I used to try to learn #emacs every Summer. I finally gave up. It is too complicated (and using non-standard terminology like C-c C-x instead of CTRL-C CTRL-X does not make it any easier) ... I also used to just close my terminal instead of trying to close Emacs.
I thought maybe #Xemacs solved that, but it did not seem to be better.
I don’t think the issue is emacs’ appearance. If they try to develop a beauteous front-end for it, they should make that front-end replace the obscure (and obfuscating) control syntax with something that mere mortals can use. That way, they can deceive themselves into believing that improving the appearance solved their popularity issue.
(Is emacs not popular? I still see blog posts and tutorials where emacs is assumed, though nano is by far the most popular text editor.) -

I finally gave up on trying to learn #emacs. It is for people much smarter than I. -

It'd be great if transitioning from one to another was a well-understood problem, but it isn't.
Is that #Emacs that is trying to move from #svn to git with #ESR's help and having a difficult time of it? -

Matthew Graybosch (starbreaker@mastodon.sdf.org)'s status on Sunday, 05-May-2019 20:43:00 UTC Matthew Graybosch Partner: "Does that app you're using only run on Linux and BSD? I want to try it out."
Me: "You mean #Emacs?"
Her: "Yeah. And that org mode stuff that you're using as a poor man's Evernote. It doesn't use the cloud, right?"
Me: "It works on Windows and Mac, too. All of your files get stored locally. Want me to set it up for you and download manuals?"
Her: "Please, but you'll answer questions instead of saying RTFM, right?"
Me: "I stopped doing that years ago at your request, remember?"

Tunapunk (wasamasa@niu.moe)'s status on Friday, 01-Mar-2019 20:52:51 UTC Tunapunk It seems that after I unleashed that CHIP-8 emulator for #emacs someone else felt pressured to unveil their Gameboy emulator: https://github.com/vreeze/eboy
After some tweaking to get the code to byte-compile, I've made it run at 1.6 FPS (author claims 1 FPS interpreted). Thanks to frameskip you can actually see things move. Here's a recording of Tetris in demo mode:

stig atle (stigatle@quitter.no)'s status on Saturday, 30-Dec-2017 09:03:55 UTC stig atle Explored something different yesterday, rust programming language ( https://www.rust-lang.org/en-US/ ) and #emacs as IDE, want to try it for a small project. also want to try out haskell - https://www.haskell.org/ - a bit too. Nice to learn new things.
I must say I'm impressed by the way you add rust packages, https://crates.io/ , so damn easy to add it to your project. -
