# Choose Your Own (Technology-Enhanced Learning) Adventure
Greta Goetz
-This presentation will move through Emacs artifacts illustrating
-possible paths for beginners and then map out some supportive roles
-for the enhanced learning potential (cf. Caillet in Andler & Guerry,
-Engelbart) of Emacs. Emacs affords diverse possibilities for
-individuals to interact creatively and autonomously with their digital
-environment and others to satisfy their own needs (Illich) and
-fulfills the promise of digital tools to help enhance our learning
-(e.g. Engelbart), balancing creativity with guidance (Goodyear &
-Retalis).
-
-
-# Intro
-
-Emacs allows for play with formality and does not limit imaginable
-types of interactivity, supporting both formal and informal learning
-(cf. Caillet in Andler & Guerry 2008), therefore it can function as a
-scaffold for development (cf. Vygotsky 1979: 86) and the creative and
-autonomous ability of individuals to interact with their digital
-environment and others who equally share the ability to use this tool
-(Illich 1973). Individuals can use Emacs as often or seldom as they
-want to express their needs and meaning in action, with no obligation
-to use it (cf. Illich 1973: 22).
-
-The formal learning involved pertains to Emacs documentation (the
-'temple') while related discussion and copying of or composing parts
-of inits or smaller task-based problem solving represents the
-'forum'. The latter, demonstrative of technology-enhanced learning,
-allows for engagement in diverse and individual levels of learning,
-balancing creativity with guidance (Goodyear & Retalis 2010: 4).
-
-1. What if we are beginners overwhelmed by formal Emacs documentation? Two possible learning paths:
-
- - a. Build on a needs-basis. Brief explanation and rationale [1 para].
- - b. Study others' inits and use-cases; Read Planet EmacsLife; Consult what programmers or power users say [1 link example for each].
-
-2. Emacs as technological networks for enhanced learning with boundaries through [section supplemented by some examples, and illustrated by a mind-map to bring coherence]:
-
-- The 'wise' use of computers (Crichton) to manage and organize workflow
-- Fun use of computers - 'there are people who want to put a stop to that' (Crichton)
-- Disciplinary use-cases can give insight into how various Emacs capabilities fit into the mental models particular to disciplinary context. This can improve design performance while educating the designer (Goodyear & Retalis 2010).
-
-- Allows for multiple and organically changing organization of knowledge. This is opposed to relegating it to pre-fabricated fields, which is the case when using apps (as if all learners have the same spatial/visual needs?!
-
-- Emacs is developed and maintained by a community dedicated to keeping this freedom of use in these multiple contexts (cf. Illich 1973).
-- Emacs thus allows us to control our tools and tasks (Illich 1973:
-- in order to release ourselves from the tasks of *automatic* maintenance (cf. Latour's 1987 simple customers'). By contrast, the care-less use of automatizing pre-fabricated apps leads to knowledge loss and loss of know-how in life (Stiegler 2018).
-
-- Emacs fulfills the promise of the value of technology-enhanced learning (Goodyear & Retalis 2010) e.g. by augmenting OUR intellect (cf. Engelbart 1962), not automatizing our knowledge to smaller repetitive tasks that contribute to a larger picture we cannot see.
-
-# Conclusion
-
-Emacs does not limit any imaginable type of interactivity and promotes
-a diversity of related content, further supporting pursuit of more
-advanced technology-enhanced learning (TEL). TEL, with its current
-*general* reliance on pre-fabricated one-size-fits-all software, does
-not reach its potential where it uses apps or tools that automatize
-knowledge. By contrast, Emacs enables us to learn this knowledge work,
-and supports informal learning at all levels. This includes the most
-basic needs-use level while also inviting us through its myriad
-use-case examples to learn how work is managed, organized, and
-coordinated for the benefit of the diverse community made possible by
-maintainers and developers. Using Emacs not only means being able to
-use this digital tool, but to learn about the structure of digital
-learning and learning in general.
+This presentation will first illustrate possible paths for beginners and then mapping out the significance of the enhanced learning potential of Emacs (Caillet in Andler & Guerry, Markauskaite & Goodyear). The technology-enhanced learning (TEL) that Emacs affords departs from the 'many, many features' (Stallman) which surpass the confines of a pre-fabricated environment (Stiegler). This affords diverse possibilities for individuals to interact creatively and autonomously to satisfy their own needs alongside others who share use of the tool (Illich). Its adaptability will be shown to be an asset in support of the learning trends identified by the latest pedagogical research (Guo).
+
+1. Setting out as beginners who may be overwhelmed by formal Emacs documentation. Some inroads. No trace is too small.
+2. Emacs as common ground between people and technology.
+3. Emacs modularity and TEL design.
+4. Emacs as personal, creative, autonomous.
+5. Emacs and cognitive democracy.

# Don't write that package! or: How I learned to stop worrying and love emacs-devel
Stefan Kangas
-Emacs' greatest strength is also its greatest weakness: it is **too** hackable.
-
-We have a great community that experiment with new features that are still
-lacking in Emacs core. They write up a package and develop the living daylights
-out of it, until it is basically amazing. (I'm looking at you Magit.)
-
-There are other examples such as helpful.el - great package, but why are those
-features not in core? What about projectile? And so on.
-
-Core demands copyright assignments (CLA). This is a fact of life. While I
-mostly agree with the people saying it is not helful, they are there to protect
-Emacs from copyright issues in the future. So my suggestion here is simple:
-just **sign the papers**. It is just a formality, and you should only need to do
-it once.
-
-I suggest that any ambitious feature that we **might** want to see shipped in the
-default Emacs distribution should by default go to GNU ELPA. You don't need to
-do this, of course, and I respect your decision, but I urge you to do it.
-
-GNU ELPA does not have an exceptionally high standard, but we do try to give any
-new package a proper code review.
-
-MELPA is excellent. We love MELPA. They don't have a criterion for their
-packages that is important to the FSF, which is to not recommend non-free
-software. Therefore, we could not recommend it by default, and had to build
-NonGNU ELPA.
-
-NonGNU ELPA will be used for packages that we don't have an assignment for but
-would still like to distribute. It should ideally only be for old packages
-where getting a CLA is impractical.
-
-It is sometimes perceived as hard to contribute to Emacs core. This impression
-is largely wrong. If I can do it, you can too.
-
-We do have a problem in that our tools and methods (mailing lists, the bug
-tracker) are out-dated. This is largely correct. We want to migrate to
-something else, and the best candidate is probably Sourcehut. Please volunteer
-to help!
-
-We sometimes see people adding stuff to their Init file to fix this or that
-annoyance, or even bug. The more ambitious would go on to package up such fixes
-in what I call "patch packages". "Hey, foo-mode doesn't have support for
-'bookmark-set', let's write a package!" I am here to suggest that you submit a
-patch to Emacs instead.
-
-Fixing an issue for one person is good, and fixing it for more people is even
-better. Fixing it for everyone? Priceless.
-
-emacs-devel is not that scary, nor is email. We are really quite friendly and
-easy going, but the communication we prefer (for reasons of efficiency - the
-volume is very high) is often very brief and to the point. We are trying our
-best at communicating, but sometimes fail.
-
-And we need more contributors. We need a successful Emacs on this planet.
-
-So should you really write a package, or should YOU become a core contributor?
-
-
-
-# Outline
-
-- I will urge people to consider contributing to Emacs instead of
- writing small packages, and explain GNU ELPA, MELPA, CLA.
-- I will go into greater detail about emacs-devel, how it "works"
- (e.g. is Emacs conservative without reason?), how to get things
- done and the necessary mindset.
-
-<!--
-- 40 minutes: (brief description/outline): All of the above, and I will show a
- demonstration and give instructions for how to use M-x debbugs to read the bug
- tracker, how to send emails, patches, and our workflows. More on what to
- expect.
--->
-
+We need a successful Emacs on this planet. This means that we need an
+excellent out-of-the-box experience -- one that just works, but that you
+can still hack and customize. There is so much great experimentation
+and work going on out there in the wider Emacs community, but we would
+be even better off if more of that could go into Emacs itself.
+
+Emacs' greatest strength is unfortunately sometimes also its greatest
+weakness: it is *too* hackable.
+
+On occasion, people out there add stuff to their Init file to fix this
+or that annoyance, or even bug. The more ambitious might go on to
+package up such fixes: "Hey, 'foo-mode' doesn't have support for
+'bookmark-set', let's write a package!" I am here to suggest that you
+should not do that.
+
+You should submit a patch to Emacs! Maybe more people have that same
+problem or annoyance, and would benefit from your solution?
+
+It is sometimes perceived as hard to contribute to Emacs core. I want
+to encourage more people to get involved, and show that the barrier to
+entry is really not that high. If I can do it, you can do it too!
+
+So should you really write that package, or should you stop worrying and
+learn to love emacs-devel? Listen to my talk to find out more!

-# Why structural editing is the future of code editing, and a novel approach for editing everyday languages
+# Tree-edit: Structural editing for Java, Python, C, and beyond!
Ethan Leba
-I liken the state of code editing today to the early days of computer
-science,
-when assembly was the only language available. When writing assembly, first
-we
-think of how they want the logic of the program to behave, and then secondly
-translate this logic into Assembly. A tedious and error-prone process &#x2013;
-like
-shoving a square peg into a round hole. But how could it be otherwise?
-That's
-simply what 'programming' was&#x2026; until we realized there were far better
-ways to
-suit our languages to fit the way that we humans think.
-
-The problem with assembly is that fundamental building blocks of the
-language don't match the way we think of programs: we don't think in
-terms of pushing and popping registers, we think in terms of
-variables, functions, etc. So when we write and edit code, why do we
-edit in terms of deleting, inserting, replacing characters &#x2013;
-not wrapping, inserting, raising and deleting expressions and
-statements? Because of the mismatch between the way we reason about
-code and the way that we edit it, we must translate our intents into
-the sequence of character manipulations that achieve it.
-
-In this talk, I'd like to discuss a vision for how writing code could be &#x2013;
-A
-paradigm where the editing operations match the way that we think. I'll also
-demonstrate a work-in-progress package 'tree-edit', which seeks to achieve
-this
-vision, providing a framework for structural editing in any language that
-the
-tree-sitter package supports.
-
-I'd also like to discuss the implementation of 'tree-edit', which uses an
-embedded logic programming DSL in a novel way to power it's syntax tree
-generation.
+In this talk, I'll discuss a vision for how writing code could be, where the
+editing operations map directly to the primitives of the language itself -- and
+my humble attempt of implementing this vision. _tree-edit_ seeks to provides a
+structural editing plugin supporting conceivably any language with a tree-sitter
+parser.
+**Structural editing does not have to be relegated to lisps or niche DSLs.**
+I liken the state of code editing today to writing assembly. The reason why
+people like Python more than assembly is that for most purposes, the building
+blocks of the language are mismatched with our thought process. We don't think
+in terms of registers and addresses, we think in terms of variables, functions,
+etc. So when we write and edit code, why do we edit in terms of deleting,
+inserting, replacing characters &#x2013; not wrapping, inserting, raising,
+deleting expressions and statements?
+
+I'll also discuss the implementation of tree-edit, which uses a novel
+combination of the fantastic
