I stumbled on it on @bandali's channel following a link to Howard's, and it's a *masterclass* in wrangling things together to automate workflows in Emacs/Elisp/Org. When people ask about VS Code, this shows we are talking different mindsets and tools altogether. - Yeah! I'm excited for that one. - So am I.. again! And I'll be rewatching it multiple times too, that's how packed in useful insights and tidbits it is. "What do you mean Emacs/Org is a platform and a way of life?" Well, here you go, great examplar :) +- FYI Emacs now has `with-memoization` + - I use a package (skeeto's?) that has defmemoize and such, is that outdated now? + - Yes, Chris's package was developed years ago, and it's been useful to me as well. Stefan Monnier, IIRC, added with-memoization in...28.1, I think. IIRC there are minor differences but now the built-in one should usually be enough. +- The breadth of use cases and applications, and range of Emacs/Elisp/Org capabilities reached for in this talk is fascinating. +- I had some time to pop into the mentor Q&A, and one of the things that bubbled up from the conversation was that there's always something to be curious about, even if you've been using Emacs for decades. It's not just about the stuff that comes built-in or even in packages, it's also all these different workflows. so it's easy to be perpetually curious and to have lots of fun. + - sachac, Agreed! Not only Emacs, either. For the last several years, I've hosted 1:1s with teammates where they can ask any tech question they want; if I don't know the answer, we figure it out together. And those are my favorite ones. :) + +- So nice to see these practical example of automating workflow with Emacs, great presentation sachac [[!inline pages="internal(2023/info/emacsconf-after)" raw="yes"]] |
