I used vanilla emacs when I started with it 15 years ago. Then I announced init.el bankruptcy and used Spacemacs for a long time. The time has come to go back to vanilla though! I am following awesome @SystemCrafters videos and I think I will make it through this time :D

Today I finished the Emacs from Scratch series. Thanks @SystemCrafters for this whole series, without it my setup wouldn't be so good and I wouldn't have enough to understand and solve things.

Got tired of writing queries for #emacs mu4e using strings. It's uncouth and un-lisp-like. Thus, mu4e-query, that lets you write queries using s-expressions: github.com/mickeynp/mu4e-que… Keen on feedback.

Impressive, @SystemCrafters has videos for a ton of the technologies I strongly recommend and they seem well produced: Guix, Emacs, org-mode, etc. I'm glad someone's out there doing that! These are great! Here's one: 5 Reasons to Try Guix in 2022: youtube.com/watch?v=7ZdMRLPZ…

Note-taking habits actually useful for #writing? I have found the Zettelkasten method invaluable, along with #emacs #orgroam; here are the resources that helped me along the way:

Check out my little #emacs hack. It's an Emacs version of the command line tool #fzf. You pipe stuff from your shell into `ezf' (emacs fuzzy finder) and you can use Helm/your completion framework of choice to filter and select matches before sending them 'back' to the shell.
