Am currently in Britanny & exposed for various reasons to Breton music. Inevitable observation: B music is far more repetitive (limited) than Irish. Therefore am currently coding in Lisp (with thumbs in #Emacs on my phone; am on holiday!) functions to take tunes in ABC notation (thesession.org etc), doing Lempel-Ziv compression, and comparing compression rates. So far: Irish 33%; Breton 50%, i…

I thought I might play with #agentshell in #emacs last night but I quickly ran into the sand. Apparently the open source #gemini tool is deprecated and
Amount of times that dabbrev-expand can be more useful than an LLM is extremely high. But #emacs doesn't have a frothy speculation bubble.
Möchte man eine Code-Zeile einrücken: TAB
Möchte man mehrere markierte Zeilen einrücken: C-u 4 C-x TAB
Okay then #emacs
#emacs paper-cut..
Modes where the tree-sitter mode is basically the same has been a great transition.
Ones where they're very different (golang) are a bit annoying.
Ones where they are subtly different (yaml) are the worst.
But like all emacs things you can config your way out of it.
#TIL about #osm-mode, allowing you to browse #openstreetmap from #emacs.
