I think it's a cool way to show off some info, like foundation you support or certain non-mainstream tech you use. It's great to use such things as conversation starter. I had a few on my previous laptop. No regrets!

What's even better is that you can access it with duckduckgo !hn bang.

Yes, there's really something about old school system administration. I do really appreciate how Fedora and Debian SA team does it, you can see here: -

No need to ask other people about that. Just have a weekend learning Emacs + Lisp and make your own opinion. This configuration (
https://github.com/susam/emfy
) is a great start. If you like it - use it, if you don't - throw it away. Also, you don't have to fall into a trap of configuring Emacs, well known hackers uses the bare minimum of it and are highly productive. If you're afraid of RSI, you can quickly change default bindings using, for example, Xah-Fly-Keys, or Evil if you're into Vim bindings.

Would upvote HTDP as a great book to read before starting SICP, if you only begin your programming journey.

I've been going through grief, and silence is the most annoying thing I encountered lately. People are so afraid to talk about death and grief, they believe that if they say something about it, you'll turn into tears, but that's wrong most of the time. People just don't know how to deal with hard feelings to the extent they just do not say anything. And this is painful, since it vanishes last bits of a person from life. There's nothing wrong with death, people's reaction what makes it sad. And it's in your hands to make it meaningful and help other people with it. Do not ever be silent about death: talk, ask, listen, share a grief and never forget about it.

This is interesting! How many hours a day do you spend at work? In what position? I think it's a very good opportunity for smart, tech-savvy people to realize their dreams. It's hard for me to do it myself, my day job completely exhausts me, usually by the end of the day I have no interest in doing anything else. That's why I've always admired people who can combine work and hobbies and be successful at them.
