My god! It's full of tags! https://michal.sapka.pl/2025/my-god-its-full-of-tags/

I've tried #typst on #emacs both with ox-typst to generate pdf out of an org file and typst-ts-mode that allows to use typ files seamlessly.
Both work great !
I may dive deeper into this as I 'm a typst newbie.

I didn't know #Emacs comes with a built-in RSS reader. I'm happy with Elfeed, but it's worth checking out Newsticker. (via https://codelearn.me/2025/04/09/emacs-newsticker.html)

Of course, if you do have long-time plans for your personal #knowledgemanagement, you should not use proprietary tools like #Obsidian, #OneNote, #Evernote and alike.

You also should think of switching to a much better (learnability, portability/compatibility, typobility, logic, featureset) markup syntax like #orgdown which is used in #Emacs #Orgmode (among other tools).

But if you start with Org-mode, you need to know the right way of doing it, as so many web pages recommend. Here's my take:

#UOMF: The Right Way to Use #OrgMode

ad syntax/Markdown/Orgdown/#LML: https://karl-voit.at/2017/09/23/orgmode-as-markup-only/

A specific blog post about the #lockin effects of Obsidian and Co (despite using some tool-specific flavor of MD) is in the making. (Please don't start a religious discussion here.)

Confused by the #Emacs key binding concepts? You might be interested in reading:

the one thing I had surprise problems in #emacs:

ever since I returned to vanilla keybindings, it's difficult to find bindings for my global functions (like consult-find) that will work in all modes without problems.

First I assumed C-c, but C-c is *for* major modes.

How do you approach it?

Sorry #emacs , but #zed

Only recently I discovered #emacs M-s . (isearch-forward-symbol-at-point). Never without!

I wished there was a consult.el equivalent, but there isn't.

So, I challenged myself to write one. Turned out, it wasn't hard.

Felt it was worth to share how

Many #Emacs users think that `:defer` is really important in `use-package`, but you rarely need it in practice if you structure your configuration properly https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/use-package/Best-practices.html

I've been using #emacs variable-pitch-mode for Rust code for some time, and I'm really happy with it, but today I discovered that I can use fixed-pitch for comments and strings, and this makes it much easier to line things up in those cases. Here's what I'm trying for now:

(variable-pitch-mode)
(setq face-remapping-alist
'((default variable-pitch default)
(font-lock-string-face fixed-pitch :foreground "VioletRed4")
(font-lock-comment-face fixed-pitch :foreground "Firebrick")))

Got up and running with debugging Go code in Emacs in about 2 minutes.

It renders variables inline, as well as when I put my cursor on a variable (eldoc-box).

dape lets me navigate the call stack, it auto expands all local variables, it provides a REPL and more besides.

And all I did was:

# pacman -S delve
M-x dape RET RET

I've yet to try out the more advanced features of delve, like attaching to a running process, but first impressions sure look good!

After reading this article I've decided to trim down a bit on my org config and throw out everything that hides any characters as I found this behaviour often annoying anyway.

When I read this "rant" about what's missing from man page readers
https://whynothugo.nl/journal/2025/04/09/man-pages-are-great-man-readers-are-the-problem/
I needed some time to understand the issue.
Then it made "click": I'm so used to reading man pages in #emacs that I take it for granted to e.g. being able to follow links...

happy to see renewed interest in arduino-cli-mode for #Emacs, which i maintain :) today it becomes an even better #Arduino IDE alternative, thanks to zck who added serial monitor support! it auto-closes/restarts when uploading code.

now who wants to do a serial plotter? https://github.com/motform/arduino-cli-mode
