project-vc-dir when I want a VC status overview, and most of the time this is exactly what I want, the whole project laid out in one buffer, every modified, added and unregistered file in the repo sitting right there, ready to be diffed or committed.

The artist Banksy has installed (without a permit, one assumes) a new statue in London that depicts a man in a suit marching off off a ledge, blinded by a flag. The artwork has been dubbed Blind Patriotism, although Banksy, enigmatic as always, doesn’t explain the meaning of his latest work. However, many have interpreted it as satirising the rise of nationalistic fervour in the UK, typified by the populist politician Nigel Farage and other forces on the far right. Another bullseye for Banksy. 🎯 Tags: art · Banksy · politics  ( 3 min )

Nowhere on XKCD’s map of The Contiguous 41 States does it say that you need to find the missing seven states, but that’s immediately where my mind went. And it was a little more challenging than I anticipated — all of New England is present & accounted for somehow? The answer key is here, along with this tidbit: The United States did have exactly 41 states for a few days in 1889, from the admission of Montana, the 41st state, on November 8, to the admission of Washington (the state, not DC), the 42nd state, on November 11. See also this super-sized US map with 64 states. And then after I wrote all of the above, I decided to check and of course I’d posted about this map before, soon after it came out. *sigh* Tags: maps · usa · xkcd  ( 3 min )

I’m gonna call it: Every Frame a Painting, my all-time favorite YouTube channel, is back. Tony Zhou and Taylor Ramos stopped producing their fantastic video essays back in 2017 and while they have popped up here and there since then, they’ve mostly stuck to their retirement. But for the past few months, the duo have been releasing video essays produced in partnership with Criterion: Night of the Living Dead: Limitations into Virtues, The Blade (1995): The Edges of Wuxia, and just yesterday, The Visual Comedy of Isle of Dogs (embedded above). For the past three decades, Wes Anderson has left a distinctive fingerprint in American comedy, with his penchant for artificial worlds, deadpan performances, literary devices, and snappy narration. But there’s something else. These movies are funny to look at. Over the years, Anderson has experimented more and more with visual comedy. And none of this is more apparent than in Isle of Dogs. It looks like they’re doing about one video a month. I hope they keep it up…I love their videos. (Ok, maybe don’t read this bit until you’ve watched the Isle of Dogs video, but did you detect that Zhou’s narration seems to be synced to the mouth movements of the characters in the clips he’s talking over? Such a great little detail of visual comedy…I clapped my hands in glee like a toddler when I noticed.)

diff-hl by Dmitry Gutov. Its description says: diff-hl-mode highlights uncommitted changes on the side of the window, allows you to jump between and revert them selectively.

We could say diff-hl complements the core. Then there are major mode packages, like csv-mode, markdown-mode, cobol-mode, and so on. They add functionality that doesn't exist in the core.

buffer-to-pdf. It does just what its name suggests. It takes the current Emacs buffer and exports it to PDF preserving things like theme, and font characteristics. It’s easy to use. You simply call buffer-to-pdf and you get a PDF of your current buffer. You can specify the orientation—portrait, landscape, or current window—for the output but that’s the only choice you have to make. The most complicated thing about the package is its pagination. If you have an Org file, each headline is a new page. The idea is to turn it the org file into a set of slides. Again, this all happens automatically. For a simple text file, buffer-to-pdf paginates at screen borders. That seems like a natural thing to do and allows a certain amount of control over where the page breaks occur by adjusting the window size. Finally, you can specify explicit page breaks by inserting a form feed (^L). Prot’s video doesn’t make clear how the form feeds interact with the window boundary heuristic but, as Prot says, the best way of thinking about buffer-to-pdf is as a screen capture that produces a PDF. It’s a perfect way to share an Emacs buffer with someone else. If you’re interested in this package, take a look at Prot’s video at the above link. You can check out the package’s Git repository here.  ( 5 min )

I’ve been looking for (or rather, chasing!) the right note-taking workflow in Emacs for over a decade now. Back in 2013, I wrote about setting up Deft mode with Org-Mode and it was my attempt at bringing that Notational Velocity-style simplicity into Emacs, and I used it for a long time. I genuinely liked Deft, but it’s no longer actively maintained, and the same goes for Zetteldeft which was built on top of it as an alternative successor. Since then, I’ve tried the other major players – org-roam, Denote, and a handful of others. They’re all extremely impressive and comprehensive packages that do more than I could ever ask for, but none of them ever quite stuck for me. I’d set one up and more or less force myself to use it for a few weeks, and then quietly drift back to a loose pile of org…  ( 5 min )

the Emacs development team is planning to start the Emac 31 release process next week. That means that they will cut the Emacs 31 branch and start the process of testing and refining it in preparation for the final Emacs 31 release. I really like how the development time is handling releases lately. They plan on a major release about once a year and in between time issue updates to fix bugs or problems in the latest major release. If you follow the Emacs Devel mailing list, you’d think that the developers’ full time job is Emacs and that they have no family. It’s incredible how much unpaid time these people devote to Emacs  ( 4 min )

Part one use-package, would document if they deviate from the behaviour of "vanilla use-package" in some way. Part two use-package is a little off for use-package itself 🙂 The README for Elpaca says that Add configuration which relies on after-init-hook, emacs-startup-hook, etc to elpaca-after-init-hook so it runs after Elpaca has activated all queued packages. but that seems like a very big hammer and as I understand it I'd have to move the whole :init block for python-mode into the hook in that case. Playing around with the various blocks for use-package isn't too time consuming and I think it's a good first thing to try. Tags: emacs  ( 1 min )

Raw link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JG4R-d0N-is In this short video I demonstrate my new package for Emacs. It is called buffer-to-pdf. The idea is to save your current buffer to a PDF, while preserving how it looks. This means that your font size, theme, and other visual effects are preserved and written to the PDF. buffer-to-pdf is not meant to be a replacement for elaborate export methods: consider it a quick yet effective way to get a “screen capture” of your Emacs that you can then share as a document. I believe this will be especially useful for academics or people who need to distribute presentation notes on a regular basis. The package is available here: https://github.com/protesilaos/buffer-to-pdf.  ( 1 min )

the first, Prot shares what he considers decent default settings for Emacs. Naturally, I don’t agree with all of them but they’re an excellent start for your init.el. For example, I’d be more likely to prefer Melpa over Gnu Elpa, and I prefer Swiper to Consult but that may be simply because I’m used to Swiper and it works well for me. Most of the rest of his choices I agree with or at least am agnostic about. That’s the thing about Emacs, you get to choose what works best for you. The second quickie is a post from Charles Choi that discusses bulk search and replace commands in Emacs. Choi begins with reviewing regular expression syntax. That’s important because some Emacs command use the builtin regexp syntax and others call various versions of grep, which, of course, have their own regexp syntax. As usual with Choi’s posts there’s a lot there and it requires careful reading but it’s worthwhile. As Choi says, the Emacs bulk search and replace commands make possible workflows that would be harrowing in other editors but they’re also difficult to discover. His post is intended to remedy that.  ( 5 min )

On Wednesday, the Supreme Court ruled against a Louisiana election map, narrowing the Voting Rights Act in what NPR described as “the latest in a series of rulings that have all but gutted the landmark 1965 law.”  Right-wing media figures and outlets celebrated the ruling and described majority-minority districts as “DEI” and “no-whites-allowed” while denying the negative impacts of the decision on Black Americans, with one commentator claiming that it actually “increases the influence of Black voters.”  ( 6 min )

Two of Kansas top judicial officers pay respects to Law Day, an annual national observance of the rule of law started by President Dwight Eisenhower.

After the U.S. Supreme Court severely weakened the federal Voting Rights Act in an April 29 decision, a furious U.S. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries condemned what he called an “illegitimate” conservative majority on the court. “This isn’t even the Roberts Court,” Jeffries said, referring to Chief Justice John Roberts. “It’s the Trump Court.” Democrats […]

President Donald Trump on Thursday moved to capitalize on a U.S. Supreme Court decision weakening the federal Voting Rights Act as he urged one governor to gerrymander his state and praised another for suspending an approaching primary.

You can slice and dice this data in a bunch of different ways — it’s a fantastic resource. One of the site’s sections is about obituaries. From that data, Alcorn produced this infographic of whose obits contained the highest word count: As you can see, it’s a lot of world leaders, religious leaders, politicians, and white men. There only appear to be five women on the list. Notable non-politicians include Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, Muhammad Ali, and Charles Schulz. The whole dashboard is fun/enlightening to explore.

They’re in fact doing something very different. They’re acting as a super legislature, an unelected group of people who have taken it upon themselves to correct Congress.

Said Buñuel of the film: This film has no intention of attracting nor pleasing the spectator; indeed, on the contrary, it attacks him, to the degree that he belongs to a society with which surrealism is at war.

McDonald's Derpy McFlurry features vanilla soft serve mixed with berry popping boba and wild berry sauce. I bought one for $4.49 (versus $3.99 for the chain's regular McFlurry flavors). The Derpy McFlurry is named after a character from the film KPOP Demon Hunters, and its rather cute visage is featured on the cup. If you like blueberries and cream, that's essentially the flavor of the Derpy McFlurry. There's an enjoyable, sweet blueberry flavor to go with the smooth, creamy vanilla notes. With a similar size, the berry popping boba worked as a stand-in for actual blueberries. While a few were broken, most of the boba were intact and plump for a nice pop of juice/sauce. When it comes down to it, I liked the Derpy McFlurry quite a bit. Partially because McDonald's doesn't often offer any sort of fruit (or fruit-flavored) McFlurry. They don't even have the Strawberry Sundae anymore. Read more at Brand Eating!  ( 14 min )
