One of the things I want to do now that I have some time is get my head around all the modern AI stuff. I'm starting with a review or things I've already done by going through Andrew Ng's Coursera ML class. I'll probably continue with his courses but I'm…

Various things, when rooting around for help in Emacs

I’ve started CIDER’s OpenCollective some 7-8 years ago and over the course of time it became of the main donation channels for the project. In good years it would raise somewhere between $10,000 and $15,000. While my initial plan was to use the money to fund…

dash.el has long been a staple in the Emacs community and I give it a lot of credit for driving some upstream API progress. By showing how many people wanted to use dash.el for various reasons (e.g. macros like -if-let and -when-let and numerous functions…

I’m glad to report that yesterday the long-awaited preliminary support for clojure-ts-mode in CIDER has landed! This pull request (or rather the original PR on which it was based) was in the works for a very long time and it feels good to see it finally merged.…

I’ve been pretty busy with Flycheck ever since I became its maintainer recently. Today I wanted to share with you a few of the recent highlights. Flycheck 34 I’ve cut Flycheck 34, which features quite a few new checkers and removes a bunch of legacy checkers.…

A few years ago Nikita Tonsky made popular a certain style of formating Clojure code, that became known as “fixed” or “tonsky” indentation in the community. clojure-mode has long had some support for this via clojure-indent-style: (setq clojure-indent-style…
