> Is anybody here consciously trying to keep their Emacs configs/setup "lean", minimalist, as small as possible?

Me too, for some reason. I've been using Emacs for 8 years and my init.el is 94 lines long. I guess the defaults mostly work for me.

Also reading IJ! Got to 50% this week, but it took me about 10 months. I’m a slow reader I think. However, I’m taking notes as I read to help me track how the different characters are connected.

How does the classifier work? I see some JSON files with commands in them.

I like this tree visualization! The background with little squares is making the text difficult to read, though.

Had a funny experience with this some weeks ago. I started developing a small side project and after a week I wondered if this existed already. To my surprise, someone had already built something relatively similar _with the exact same name_ (though I had chosen mine as a placeholder, still funny though) only 2 weeks before, and posted it in Show HN.

I took a look at the project and it was a 100k+ LoC vibe-coded repository. The project itself looked good, but it seemed quite excessive in terms of what it was solving. It made me think, I wonder if this exists because it is explicitly needed, or simply because it is so easy for it to exist?

Changed 50 meters to 43 meters with Opus 4.6:

“Walk. 43 meters is basically crossing a parking lot. ”

Same here, I find most of these skills/prompts a bit redundant. Some people argue that in including these in the conversation, one is doing latent space management of sorts and bringing the model closer to where one wants it to be.

I wonder what will happen with new LLMs that contain all of these in their training data.

Yep exactly, a Perl script
