Interview With Prot - Philosopher, Writer and Emacs Contributor

[@protesilaos]

Thank you Gavin! I had a good time. I wish you all the best going forward!

[@LordDevi]

Prot is such a lovely person. HIs philosophical thoughts on things are quite cozy. And I really love his Emacs plugins too. Would just be a wonderful person to get to know. I wish him the very best.

[@randomsearches369]

Thanks, Gavin. I didn't expect this.

[@theodore-1010]

A great conversation. Hope you will continue inviting other Emacs giants too!

[@GavinFreeborn]

Plenty to come!

[@randomsearches369]

Someday, we should get Daniel Mendler, Antolín, Jonas, Karthink, and many more.

[@JorgeMendes75]

Great interview. Interesting to watch Protesilaos in a conversation setting. Besides beeing generous with all his work and philosophy he seems like a really good person.

[@jm77_josemanuel]

These two guys achive what they do. I've learnt Emacs with them both. So good channels. Thanks!

Prot is a legend

[@HarishNarayanan]

What a lovely smile 😁

[@erikalmaraz1554]

Great interview! I enjoy both of your KZbin content. What happened to Common Lisp, really enjoyed that content. Would be cool to see an interview with the Nyxt folks.

[@GavinFreeborn]

I've actually done one already. Look up my interview with Atlus

[@nidhishshivashankar4885]

Good collab I follow both y’all it just makes sense

[@emulationeduemulationeduca4343]

What a divinely planned interaction, two of my best picks of examplery men using Emacs, the best text editor in the known realm😂😂❤

[@treytrey5790]

cant wait to watch this

[@insanecbrotha]

GNU/cabin legend!

[@DavidConnerCodeaholic]

The way that politics has become like the fandoms of rival sports teams should be a wake up call. That is similar to what happened between various political factions in Weimar.

[@a_maxed_out_handle_of_30_chars]

good video :)

[@DavidConnerCodeaholic]

I do wish more people were accepting of alternate political identities. I believe that we are better off with more familiarity with a greater variety of ways of thinking.

[@GavinFreeborn]

Couldn't agree more!

[@_idiot]

Sadly people get brainwashed easily, since they lack critical thinking, like Prot said. That's why they end up using VSCode!

[@qu4ku]

there is nothing though to balance in "housing topic". building new houses solves the problem, period.

[@kcred]

Accelerationism sounds self-defeating. It really sounds dumb: "I hate A, there is too much of A. Let's do more A until it collapses. Oh, no there is too much of A!" Are there any successful practical accounts of this idea?

[@GavinFreeborn]

Not really. It's more of a theoretical thing. In some cases people think the same approach will result in drastically different results. Can't say I'm a big believer though so take what I say with a grain of salt

Subtitles would be good
