Dear World
Dear World,
Sorry guys. We Americans are human in the end. We stumble, we fall, we can be tricked and scammed. We can love and hate. We can be ugly and vengeful.
I wish our decisions, good or bad, weren't so consequential to everyone else in the world but it is what it is.

emacs-guix
I finished uploading my two videos for EmacsConf 2024, and I don't like taking walks in the winter. So, I have some time now during my lunchbreaks to work on programming projects. I've become fanatical now about Emacs, so I wanted to do something in that direction. A need I noticed a month or so ago was that the emacs-guix package, which is an Emacs interface to the guix operating system, has experienced some bitrot, and nobody else seems to have any time to work on it. So I decided to focus on fixing bugs in emacs-guix.

File Hoarding Deep Dive Pt. 1
I have an issue where I'll save links, thoughts, and other things in notepad files because I'm scared of losing them, and then absolutely never checking on them again. But I never actually go through them again... nor do I ever delete them...
As part of my quest to clean out my digital life, I need to go through all these junk files I hoard. I thought, perhaps writing about what I find could help get diminish my fear of deleting them.
Since everything is unorganized, there'll be no theme to anything. Just as-I-go.
