Like I said: "writing my WM config". So, for example, I would write in my editor an expression to get the list of windows on the current display, then I can immediately map/filter throu…

Okay, prove me wrong on that claim that Emacs has plain text editing features unmatched by anything else. Give it a try.

> lazygit has a good 15min vid to get u up to speed Doom Emacs install from scratch takes less than that.

Having a Lisp system to control your WM/compositor is amazingly empowering, being able to just write some expressions in a buffer and evaluate them on the fly to command windows, apps, keybinding…

IIRC StumpWM authors thought of it as a [ideological] successor of ratpoison, no?

Just effing stop. This shit sounds like Y2K jokes - you're only making a fool of yourself. Lazy setup, zero insight - these jokes void of humor, irony, or even a pinch of truth. Anyone who opens …

It's because of the "status quo". Once you start using immutable-first language on the front-end, e.g., Clojurescript - your perspective changes.

Yup, paradoxically, it's also the 2nd worst language for almost everything.

But why whenever I try to use it, it tries to hurt me like it's kicking me right in my batteries?

I wasn't trying to denigrate Common Lisp, I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings. It does have comprehensive support for all kinds of data structures. I wasn't talking it being limited to &q…

> It might not be a problem for you, but it has been for many Do you have a habit of referring to yourself in plural, or do you typically like to generalize things based on your personal experience…

I don't have great experience of using CL for analyzing data, because of "why?", if I already have another Lisp that is simply amazing for data. Clojure, unlike lists in traditional Lis…

None of this even remotely true. I've gotten into Clojure without knowing jackshit about Java, almost ten years later, after tons of things successfully built and deployed, still don't know …

I can't speak for Julia - never used it; never used Common Lisp for analyzing data (I don't think it's very "data-oriented" for the modern age and the shape of data), but Cloj…

From many practical points, Clojure is great for data. And you can even leverage python libs via clj-python.

> fast scrolling works also Grokking efficient navigation within Emacs buffers completely removed the necessity for scrolling for me - most of the time it's all about finding specific content …

What version of Emacs are you using? I stopped using Mitsuharu port because of its weird behaviors and instability and been using plain GNU/Emacs - typically I install it via emacs-plus homebrew …

React made immutability patterns more relevant which increased discussion of it. Some people did get preachy about it. Yet dismissing immutability entirely just because of that misses the entire point…

It's not hard. It's just annoying to deal with this shit on constant basis. Like just the other day, the tests wouldn't pass locally, while they're passing on CI. I was scratching …

Are you saying that getting two different compile-to-JS languages to interoperate is messy and you have to go through multiple transpilation layers to make them talk to each other? The Clojurescript w…

Yeah, it's still shitty. So often I have to go through some weird hoops to even just run the tests for a project with commits made last week. I can't even ask Claude to explain something abo…

There's 'FP stacks' and "FP stacks" and some aren't expressly similar. Volumes of money/data get handled by FP stacks - Jane Street famously uses OCaml; Cisco runs t…
