Came back from a 2 week vacation with 207 captured #orgmode headings with notes, ideas, bookmarks, ...
#PIM #Emacs

Emacs results after updating my inbox.org from my various capture files via mobile-org features. It shows 207 new headings.

I don’t really have a use for Denote #Emacs package (I had some my own much simpler but similar solution).
It’s so thoroughly and thoughtfully documented that I am finding ways to use it.
Thank you Protesilaos Stavrou! protesilaos.com/emacs/denote

What does it mean when % is displayed before a buffer name in #Emacs Ibuffer?

I have rediscovered the strength and joy of using Emacs, using ChatGPT to re-learn keybindings and plug-ins
I'm seriously thinking of going away from Obsidian to Org-Roam in Emacs org-mode
Using ChatGPT, I get up to speed in no time

Looks like the builds published by Emacs for macOS X, which is one of the easiest way to get #Emacs, don't have native compilation turned on.
I suspected this when I was seeing tons of errors with my built-from-source version.
As a side note, I could not get the first pretest of #Emacs 30.2 build the macOS version.

The only documentation I can find about using the `:custom` keyword with use-package is "The :custom keyword allows customization of package custom variables."
I have no idea how to read that.
1. Can I do (recent-mode t)?
2. If I am to set a config option like dired-dwim-target to t do I write that: (dired-dwim-target t) or (setq dired-dwim-target t)?

recap from my weekend distro hopping (that was severely limited by the good weather):
- tried Hyprland: cool but I still don't care about tiling window managers; terminals have tabs, emacs is its own window manager, the rest can be full screen or half screen.
- cool to learn about "new" things like Universal Kernel Image, a bit about UEFI, etc.
- I don't like the LEGO approach to build a Desktop; I care about this as much as 10 years ago: 0

How can you check if a version of #Emacs was compiler with native-compilation on?

macOS have emacs binding system-wide, while GNOME seems to have adopted Windows'...
I'll keep making the joke that mac is the best linux desktop then.
