Oh I wish, how I wish I could say this was 100% Emacs. It's mainly moc + dslide + blender. I use moc to capture text (as SVG or high-res PNG) for handling in blender. I use Dslide for my outline, to sort of frame things. All my notes are hidden under commented org headings. I record video in OBS. I record audio separately in Audacity (not quite my favorite). Everything is sequenced in Blender. Jean Claude Van Damme is the work of a shader I wrote in GLSL. There's a bit of Project M captures in there.

@Positron-gv7do thanks 😊

I described my setup in the dslide demo.org and manual. You can find Dslide on my github. It's a common question. Should I do a video on it? For now, enjoy my stars `(setopt org-modern-replace-stars "∯∮∇σ𝛼∞𝜺")`

It's a matter of audience. While obviously the Taliban could be watching this right now, the likely and intended audience is people deciding on a coding environment. The default assumption might be to use software based on what it does out of the box and then try to fix it up with knobs and checkboxes. The argument made here is that knobs and checkboxes always fall short and that IDEs made for one era of technology are always left behind. Only the programmable tools truly have staying power, and that will be more true, not less true, in the AI era.

@@Positron-gv7do Not sure what the Taliban have to do with computer interfaces. Though I'm sure they would bring an unique perspective to the discussion of computer interfaces, and I would be interested to hear it. Having been through several generations of computers/operating systems/languages/databases/networks, I am fully aware of the limitations of the various interfaces I've encountered over the decades. The OS/400 interface was particularly interesting as an alternative to the UNIX command line, for example, in giving the user access both to the elements of the environment AND to the ability to program that environment. Both operating systems are powerful in their own way, both trying to solve different problems. In my exploration of Emacs, I was struck by how Microsoft Excel seems to have "borrowed" several concepts from Emacs. Excel uses worksheets instead of buffers, but include both built-in functions and an embedded programming language. Excel even allows the interface to be modified by scripts. I'm not an Excel fan myself. I loathe spreadsheets but I recognise that, for many people, Excel is their primary working environment. Many people load Excel in the morning and stay in it all day. For many people, Excel is much more approachable than Emacs. Perhaps that is simply due to market propaganda, since as just as many people use Excel without any understanding of its full potential as well. I do recognise that Emacs is likely to be around forever. There will always be people looking for more flexible environments, but sometimes such "open-endness" can be a limitation in itself. The mind balks at too much complexity. Unless you have discovered a path to understanding Emacs that you wish to share (perhaps in a less breathless manner :) ... ? Thank you for taking the time to reply to my comment.

In the second case, you could write your own version of the first but with zero customize variables and just have it your way entirely. It will be about 25% of the original code and if you want something crazy, 30%. The image action is also like this. It has so many little warts that piled up from supporting different use models. Being configurable can save time when those options are really common, but it can grind development to a halt. Spacemacs struggles from time to time with the abstract configuration layers.

`emoji-search` is my favorite. `emoji-insert` is useful if you can't remember the name of one but kind of know what group it's in. I also use `nerd-icons-insert`

Roboto Slab. I use it for headings in org mode and docs as well. Really makes the manuals liven up.

About the clown emoji on cl-loop, I think my intent was to imply that while cl-loop is good, it's a bit odd that we need cl-lib to express such important ideas. It's Elisp, not CL that is a bit suspect here.

Timestamp?

Its interesting or ironic? Looking for what makes us tick or think?

A non-deterministic machine executing a precisely defined algorithm will get it wrong from time to time. We can at best approximate consistency, but because of this we have the potential to achieve every completeness.

thankyou

in practice, "better" hybrid models that can solve such (state-tracking) problems, could in theory do eg. some more advanced program analysis much faster, eg. by basically performing some kind of abstract interpretation on the fly, making them better in programming probably something similar could be applied to math

Thanks for the feedback
