I like writing. Really. However, I have problem finishing my drafts. As you might be able to read in my OKRs, I mentioned multiple times that I have quite a lot of blog drafts that I haven’t completed. I don’t want to blame anyone and it’s completely my fault: I have problem focusing on a task. I have an attention problem. In the past, I could blame things like Twitter for distracting me from…
In a previous post, I mentioned a bug-ish thing of Emacs Speaks statistics (ESS) of flymake integration.
Well, now I am the “Quarto guy” in my work place, thanks to the decision made by the previous Quarto guy, who has left.

This is a relatively quick one, again on the topic of tiling window managers.
In order to understand the context of this blog post, I recommend reading the previous blog on StumpWM, AwesomeWM, and xmonad. But a quick summary is that I need a window manager that can only do two things: (1) can use strange emacs-style key combinations, e.g. C-. b and (2) can do run-or-raise (run a software if it is not running; raise that software to my attention otherwise). I actually don’t…
Bob’s your uncle, I’ve finally done it! On Nov 31, I thought, um… writing 25 blog posts about emacs, how hard can it be?
