When the movie “Her” debuted in 2013, its plot felt like science fiction. The protagonist, Theodore, is a jaded man with no vigor for life. He comes alive after talking daily with his artificial intelligence chatbot, Samantha, with whom he eventually falls in love. But today people actually report being in relationships with AI companions. […]

'Would that it were so simple.'

This past Tuesday I typed C-x C-c in Emacs for the last time after 20 years of daily use. Though nearly half that time was gradually retiring it, switching to modal editing, then to Vim. Emacs is a platform, and I’d grown accustomed to its applications, especially those I built myself. There was no particular hurry, so replacements came slowly. With my newly-acquired superpowers I could knock out the last two pieces in a few days’ work, namely M-x calc with stackcalc and Elfeed with Elfeed2. I’m especially excited about the latter because it already exceeds the original. Both are multi-platform, native C++ GUI applications using native UI components. These actively-in-use packages require new maintainers (apply on the project’s issues/discussion): @ (about) aio (probably covered; about) b…  ( 2 min )

describing how to set up a universal folding system. Folding is one of those things that I’m equivocal about. I use it all the time in Org files and couldn’t live without it. On the other hand, I’ve never seen the need for folding in code files. Sometimes it is convenient to focus on a single function but in those cases I simply narrow to the function. Perhaps my problem is that every type of file seems to have its own folding engine with different commands and bindings. Regardless, Cherti definitely does like folding in his code buffers and like me with Org files, couldn’t live without it. His post explains his system with dealing with folding in various types of buffers. The TL;DR is that he uses kirigami as a front end to provide a uniform interface to the myriad of folding engines. That’s pretty nice but you have to tie it to the back end engines. That’s where Cherti’s post really shines. He provides the hooks for a large selection of file types. It’s not always obvious which engine you should use for a given file type and Cherti explains why he thinks each of his choices is the correct one. The nice thing is that once you’ve set up and learned kirigami, you can add folding for whatever files you need simply by setting a hook. Kirigami allows you to set your own bindings for the commands so even learning Kirigami is simple. If you’re more like Cherti than like me, and want folding for as many of your files as possible, take a look at his post. It’s really easy to set up and gives you all the folding power you’re apt to need.  ( 5 min )

These keybindings are good to know when working with a mouse in Emacs. F10 (menu-bar-open) :: Start key navigation of the menu bar in FRAME. S-F10 (context-menu-open) :: Start key navigation of the context menu. This needs context-menu-mode enabled. C-M-mouse-1 :: Activate a rectangular region around the text selected by dragging. Useful for rectangle operations. M-Drag-mouse-1 :: Set the secondary selection, with one end at the place where you press down the button, and the other end at the place where you release it. See Secondary Selection for more info. C-x z (repeat) :: Repeat most recently executed command. Yes, repeat works also for commands issued via mouse too! Knowing that repeat works with menu commands (both main and context) is particularly useful with the additions to the main menu made by the latest Anju v1.2.0 update. Shown below is a demo of using “Duplicate” (duplicate-dwim) from the Edit menu, then using C-x z and then z successively to repeat the duplication. Link to video.  ( 1 min )

Scrim, you may want to give it a spin. The TL;DR is that it solves the Org Protocol problems on macOS. Along with Captee, it allows you to easily share links from any application supporting the share menu with Org mode. I’ve got them both installed and even though I don’t use them that often, they’re exactly what I need when I want to share a link from some random application back to the Emacs mother ship. Apparently, there’s a problem between the latest Emacs development version—Emacs 31.0.05—and Scrim. Its author, Charles Choi, has produced and tested a fix for the problem with Scrim v. 1.3.3. If you’re a Scrim user and living on the edge with the Emacs 31 development version, you may want the update and, more importantly, help Choi test it. It’s available on TestFlight for you to try out. If you’re new to TestFlight, don’t be afraid. It’s simplicity itself and does the right thing automatically. I used it extensively when I was a beta user for Journelly and never had a single problem with it. It will automatically alert you if there are updates so you don’t have to track development if all you want to do is use Scrim.  ( 5 min )

When I'm writing documentation in Markdown I like, where possible, to mark up keys with the tag. This was the reason for one of the updates to BlogMore: I'd not done any good default markup for and the moment I realised, I knew I had to fix it. Now that I'm writing more on this blog, and especially about coding, I'm mentioning keys pretty often (even more so given I'm doing a lot of tidying up of my Emacs Lisp packages). The thing is though: I find having to type out and kind of tedious, and it's something I mistype from time to time. I guess I could use some sort of HTML tag inserting tool or whatever, but I got to thinking that it would be handy if I could point an Emacs command at a particular sequence in a buffer and have it mark up the whole thing. This resulted in a small bit of code I'm calling kbdify.el. It's pretty simple, if point is sat on some text that looks like this: C-M-S-s- and I run kbdify I get this: C-M-S-s-<up> The result rendering as C-M-S-s-. I could probably take it a bit further, have it optionally work on a region and stuff like that, but even in its current simplistic form it's going to be loads quicker and a lot more accurate and will probably perfectly cover 99% of the times I need it. There is the issue that it's not going to handle something like M-x some-command RET in the way I might like, but then again some-command isn't a key. Like, does it make more sense to have: M-x some-command RET anyway? Personally I think this: M-x some-command RET probably makes more sense. I think I'm good for now.  ( 1 min )

I find it especially useful if I'm working on some Emacs Lisp code, but I also find it handy as a place to drop something I want to retrieve soon, or a quick note that I want to refer back to soon; sometimes I even paste some text there and copy it back just to strip the formatting from it before using it elsewhere1. Because of this, for a long time, I carried a little function around that I had bound to M-s to quickly take me to the *scratch* buffer. Then, I think around the time I did the follow-up revamp of my Emacs configuration, I turned it into a little package for my own use called itch.el. The command (itch-scratch-buffer) is simple enough: run it and I get switched to my *scratch* buffer. If I run it with a prefix argument it switches to *scratch* and resets the content back to the initial-scratch-message. More recently I've found that I'm wanting a scratch buffer that is for writing Markdown. Like many folk I use it a lot for documentation, and of course I also use it for this blog. I also use it heavily for keeping notes in Obsidian2. So, often, I find myself switching to a temporary buffer (*foo* or something), setting it to markdown-mode, and then writing what I need. So yesterday I finally cracked and added itch-markdown-scratch-buffer. It's just like itch-scratch-buffer, only it creates a *scratch: Markdown* buffer, using the same clear-if-prefix rule. So now I've got this bound to M-S-s and I can faff around just a little less when I want a Markdown scratchpad. On macOS at least, I find the "paste without formatting" support of some applications to be really inconsistent; a quick layover in the *scratch* buffer does the trick every time. ↩ Yes, I know, I should be using Org, but sadly it's just never clicked for me, and I also find good syncing and having a consistent application on mobile and desktop are important. ↩  ( 1 min )

While host Mike Greenberg and ESPN should be applauded for asking the tough questions to Roger Goodell, their coverage of the 2026 NFL Draft hasn’t been without a couple of rough blunders.

While reading this article about the structure of complex knots, I ran across this diagram drawn by scientist Peter Guthrie Tait in 1885 for a paper called On Knots Part III. It’s one of two figures that together show all of the possible variations of knots with 10 crossings. I think the color plus the small multiples activated the Tufte array in my brain; anyway, I love this diagram. (via damn interesting) (I tried for the better part of an hour to track down a high-resolution copy of Tait’s paper to no avail. There are various contenders, but nothing that includes high-res scans of both knottiness diagrams. I’m curious about this archive of the original paper but not $41 curious.

I’ve never seen anything like these photos before. In October 2024, Rachel Moore had a close encounter with a humpback whale in French Polynesia and took these photos of the whale’s eye. Moore wrote of the experience: This moment of eye contact was beyond my wildest dreams. I’ve never encountered a whale like this one, and it was the most profoundly beautiful experience of my life. Tragically, just a few days later, the whale was dead; she drowned after being struck by a boat. Moore’s photos and experience galvanized an effort to regulate a slow zone for large boats in French Polynesia during whale migration season, which became law late last year: French Polynesia has just passed new speed regulations to better protect humpbacks during their migration. Vessels over 12 meters must now travel at 10 knots (12 knots max) within 1 nautical mile of the islands, helping prevent the kind of tragedy we never want to see again.

I want to hang out with traitors and snitches and betrayers of that system. If you do not actively identify as a traitors to that system, if you don’t actively have receipts, I don’t think that a lot of people should necessarily believe that they can invest time in in you.

For folks who like using the development build of Emacs (at the time of this writing Emacs 31.0.5) on macOS, it turns out there is a bug in how Scrim sends Org protocol requests to it. A fix has been identified and so far it works fine for both Emacs 30.2 and 31.0.5 from my testing. That said, it is always better to have more folks trying it out. If you use the latest Emacs 31.0.5+ on macOS and use (or are interested in using) Org protocol, I invite you to try out a TestFlight build of Scrim v1.1.3. If this is the first time you’ve heard about Scrim, learn more about it at http://yummymelon.com/scrim/ Thanks much!  ( 1 min )

Navigating large source files containing thousands of lines of code with Emacs makes it difficult to perceive the underlying structure. For a software engineer spending the majority of the day reading and writing code, reliable folding is a requirement for maintaining focus and managing complexity.

Sharing it will help fellow Emacs users discover better ways to manage code folding.

emacs-everywhere allows me to handle text input and editing in Emacs. Still, I spend a lot of time in Safari and it would be nice to whittle that time down. Joshua Blais claims that Emacs is his browser. His key for doing that is, of course, eww. He says, that like most of us, he believed it was far from capable of being an everyday browser but after using it for a while, he’s found that it’s usable for 85–90 percent of his use cases. What many consider its shortcomings—it’s lack of hyper-interactivity and busy graphical display—Blais considers an advantage. He’s tired of the modern web with all its flashing lights and finds eww perfect for reading blogs and other serious writing that requires concentration and in-depth thought. He’s made some nominal changes to the key bindings and a few other items. In particular, he’s made eww his default browser so even if he needs to go to a full-fledged browser, he has to go through eww first. His post has his configuration so you can see how he’s doing things. Some day, I’ll get up enough nerve to try something similar. I don’t take part in social media or most of the other flashier parts of the Web and I use the excellent Magic Lasso to filter most of the junk that the modern Web insists on shoveling into our computers so my motivation is different from Bais’: I just want to stay in Emacs as much as I can.  ( 5 min )

I have used the proced.el package in Emacs on Linux for years. It is my go-to "ps as a buffer". A nicely formatted, colorized listing of every running process, with auto-update and tree view. I use it far more often than top, htop, or similar tools. But on macOS I noticed something important is missing: no CPU or memory columns. The reason lives in Emacs itself, since proced.el does asks the C function system_process_attributes in src/sysdep.c for a plist of fields per PID. On Linux that function pulls %CPU and %Mem out of /proc/*/stat. On the BSDs and Windows it computes them from the native APIs. On Darwin, though, the implementation simply never fills in pcpu or pmem, even though it already calls proc_pidinfo for things like vsize and rss. The data is reachable through proc_pid_rusage, …  ( 14 min )

Back in the late 1990s, like plenty of people who were very online, I was a very avid user of Usenet. There were a few groups I was very active in, even a couple that I maintained a FAQ for. Being that active and wanting to help and answer questions, I was forever posting and pasting links to various resources. Given that I used Emacs to edit my posts1, I eventually realised that I should come up with a tool that let me call on common URLs quickly. So back in 1998 handyurl.el was born. It was a simple idea: have a file of URLs that I commonly refer to and let me quickly pick from one and paste it. This made for a useful tool and also gave me something to build given I was learning Emacs Lisp at the time. For reasons I can't quite recall, some time later (the next year, by the looks of thin…  ( 3 min )
