New post! "Emacs Teaches Emacs: The Missing README" www.chiply.dev/post-ask-emacs I wanted to make this shorter version as I felt it would be more intuitive for beginners, who are most likely to benefit from learning Emacs's auto-discovery features. #emacs #foss #tutorial #software #programming

New blog post! This is part of the June #emacs carnival. "Emacs Teaches You Emacs: The Missing README for Beginners" www.chiply.dev/post-june-em... #programming #foss #software #tutorial

New post on SVG in #emacs ! I new SVG cooked when I published my svg-line package, but these results were pretty surprising! "Emacs SVG Benchmark Reveals Gaming-Caliber Frame Rates" www.chiply.dev/post-emacs-s... #emacs #coding #benchmark #graphics #programming

New blog post! This one demonstrates an Emacs package I created called svg-line, inspired by @nicolasrougier.bsky.social dual-header gist. Supports multi-line bars, icons, wrapping, buttons, and alignment. www.chiply.dev/post-svg-line #emacs #programming #software #coding #lisp #texteditor

Looking to #connect with fellow #emacs and #softwarearchitecture professionals. If you love this stuff as much as I do, then #letsconnect!

Has anyone else using #emacs wanted the status bars (mode-line, header-line, tab-line, tab-bar) to be multi-line? Similarly, have any users ever wanted the margin to be multi-column? I'm working on a couple extensions to solve, and wanted to assay the community to see how prevalent this issue is

I've released #BlogMore v2.40.0. This adds post series support: blog.davep.org/2026/06/06/b... #blogging #blog #ssg #writing #python #programming

I have a new post on what lies beyond the envelope of Incremental Completing Read in #emacs ! "Beyond ICR: Incremental 'Suggesting' Read in Emacs" www.chiply.dev/post-increme... #software #programming #foss #developertools #LLM #ai #semanticsearch

An empirical thing I've noticed is that programming skills often correlate a lot with how much use you can get out of llms. bad programmers seem uninterested in library building, they usually approach problems by asking the llm to one-shot the output (and end up with slop) CS is about abstraction.

New blog post/video on my first Emacs package, space-tree! "space-tree: Workspace Management Trees in Emacs" This is a unique workspace management tool in Emacs as it allows for the hierarchical organization of workspaces. www.chiply.dev/post-emacs-s... #emacs #software #programming

Oh, you got your emulator running with a few games to play? That's cute. Andrew Warkentin has made a VM that has over 1,700 operating systems on it that you select from a launcher. One Thousand Seven Hundred Plus. Aww, your emulator takes a couple gigs. His takes 174 of them. virtualosmuseum.org

I have a new blog post about the annotate-in-place note taking pattern in Emacs! This pattern brings the benefits of annotating physical documents with pen/paper to the feature-rich digital note taking space, with support for files, web pages, and more. www.chiply.dev/post-annotat... #emacs

sorry emacs bros, but this is what peak text editing looks like

"May I recommend… understanding Emacs's patterns" www.chiply.dev/post-emacs-c... This is my sideshow in @sachachua.com May Emacs Carnival. Enjoy! The content is a real recommendation, but I also hope it makes you laugh :)

My fifth post on Emacs completion (which is mostly a video) is out! This one is a showcase of the workflows powered by VOMPECCC that I use daily. "Emacs Completion Showcase with VOMPECCC (video)" www.chiply.dev/post-vompecc... #emacs #foss #software #softwareEngineering #programming #lisp
