I thought those 12 years of piano lessons were a waste until I discovered #emacs.

I have finished a small personal #Website listing the #CommonLisp #Lisp projects that I want to share with the world.

Software development is increasingly synonymous with web development or mobile development in ways I find frustrating.

The end.

Re Blockchain: "It is perhaps the nirvana of technological solutionism – a technology that no-one really understands, doing something they can’t quite unpack for reasons they don’t fathom. They desire its adoption as an end goal in itself, rather than as an appropriate solution to a specific problem."

I found a first edition copy of Learning GNU Emacs at work. I've started reading it just to see how much of it is still relevant 27 years later. I'm not through the whole book yet, but so far all of it still applies. ALL of it.

There's more to do with #emacs these days, but holy cow that is cool that it's still pretty much the same editor it has always been.

I love that the default Emacs scratch buffer text got into Mario Golf (GBC) somehow. I wonder if this was a mis-copy-and-paste from a developer, or if it was another case of a compiler taking random memory contents and using them for padding in the ROM...

Oh, I bought a Google Home Mini new in box at a thrift shop today for five bucks.

It gets no network until I figure out how I want to liberate it, but at least no one else will abuse it in the meantime.

Just a reminder that you should all buy a mastodon gold account if you wanna see my special posts.
