[[!template text="somewhere in the middle of the UK." start="00:00:07.000" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="And I started with Emacs during my PhD," start="00:00:09.000" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="thanks to my PhD supervisor" start="00:00:12.520" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="that introduced me to this tool." start="00:00:14.120" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="And from now and from then," start="00:00:15.760" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="I am basically using it for everything." start="00:00:17.280" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="You can find more about this everything" start="00:00:20.320" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="at ag91.github.io, that is my blog." start="00:00:22.160" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="So let's get into the talk." start="00:00:26.520" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template new="1" text="Why Emacs Buddy?" start="00:00:27.900" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="Emacs Buddy is an initiative to bring us together." start="00:00:29.480" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="And the reason is because Emacs is a limitless tool." start="00:00:32.920" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="So you can keep learning about it," start="00:00:36.560" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="you can keep expanding it," start="00:00:38.800" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="and also takes time to get up to speed." start="00:00:41.040" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="So you may actually extend Emacs" start="00:00:44.800" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="or you may actually get introduced," start="00:00:48.680" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="start using Emacs," start="00:00:50.620" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="but you could fall into all the traps" start="00:00:52.320" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="or all the wasted times that other users have already gone through." start="00:00:56.360" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="And so, since there are a lot of amazing people" start="00:01:00.880" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="in the Emacs community," start="00:01:04.600" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="why do every time redo the same error?" start="00:01:07.360" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="So let's bring us together." start="00:01:10.120" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="And it would be amazing to get a one-to-one relation." start="00:01:12.160" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="So I have somebody that actually knows what you want to do," start="00:01:17.480" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="what you want to achieve with Emacs," start="00:01:21.560" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="and supports you because they have done a similar path to yours." start="00:01:23.400" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="And so they can remove some of the obstacles for you." start="00:01:27.440" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template new="1" text="So what can you expect?" start="00:01:32.720" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="The main thing is guidance on your Emacs journey," start="00:01:34.480" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="because the Emacs journey is infinite, it doesn't really end." start="00:01:37.880" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="But the farther you go," start="00:01:41.280" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="the more value you get from this amazing tool." start="00:01:44.080" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="And that helps you save time." start="00:01:46.800" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="And at the same time, you can meet like-minded people." start="00:01:50.360" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="And so you can learn about Emacs or about your context," start="00:01:54.280" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="if they are in, for example, if you are a physicist," start="00:01:59.080" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="they are physicists or they are interested in the field." start="00:02:02.920" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="You may not only learn about Emacs," start="00:02:07.560" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="but you can learn also something about the field." start="00:02:09.160" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="And anyway, the idea is that you can move forward together." start="00:02:11.880" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template new="1" text="Somebody asked, why not just mailing lists or Reddit?" start="00:02:17.040" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="Well, the point is that mailing list is many people" start="00:02:20.400" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="can help you solve one issue that you have." start="00:02:24.640" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="And that naturally doesn't become a discussion" start="00:02:28.520" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="of where you are from, what are you trying to achieve," start="00:02:31.560" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="and where you want to move forward with using this editor" start="00:02:35.280" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="or using this tool." start="00:02:40.000" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="Instead, here, we want something more personal," start="00:02:42.280" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="something more like you tell your story." start="00:02:45.640" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="Have you tried a note taking tool like Org Roam?"" start="00:04:51.720" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="And then the conversation started." start="00:04:56.000" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="So "yeah, I tried Org Roam version one." start="00:04:58.040" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="And we discussed about functional programming." start="00:05:15.480" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="And then this conversation is not currently going." start="00:05:23.280" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="So we arrived to a point in which it sort of died out." start="00:05:29.160" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="Well, if you want to be a buddy, it's easy as well." start="00:05:50.480" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="So basically, just open a PR on the Emacs buddy repository." start="00:05:54.280" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="That is something that I am maintaining at the moment." start="00:06:02.280" video="mainVideo-buddy" id="subtitle"]]
