https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-UIzYPn38sAlthough display-buffer-alist may seem esoteric, learning how to use it can lead to huge quality-of-life improvements for Emacs users. Emacs' default window placement strategy may seem chaotic and weird, but with display-buffer-alist, it can be tamed and controlled to a degree I didn't realize until I learned how to use it. I highly recommend taking the time to understand this feature of Emacs.(info "(elisp) Displaying Buffers")

How do you prefer to position your REPL buffers?- Wide and short below your source?- Tall and skinny to the right of your source?- Something else?

>>109275092why the fuck did they need to use claude on an 'awesome-*' repo lmao
>>109275092Helix is great.It's already replaced nvim as my second text editor (terminal/quick-edits).
>>109275151I was an emacs (evil mode) user long ago and switched back to vim when lsp appeared because it was way to slow on large projects. I heard that emacs now has green threads, has the situation improved?I really miss emacs lisp, writing vimscript was always a pain. lua is fine and it's fast, but I don't like the syntax. And it's missing the comfy homoiconic parts that make emacs lisp so good in my opinion.I was kinda hoping for emacs to support guile, but it seems the emacs-guile project is dead now.Do you recommend me to switch to emacs again?I tried it again one year ago, but I still had the same issues with lsp being way too slow.I was really happy when I found out helix had a plugin system you could program in a sceheme dialect. But is it any good?I have a coworker using helix, but he doesn't write/use plugins.Anyone has experience with helix's sceheme dialect? It seems helix barely exposes any useful api are there extmarks-like apis for helix, does it have an equivalent to lua's libuv to control processes and make async i/o?

Does anyone here use Reka? How is it?
Julia is a lisp. What do you friends think about it

>>109278648>Julia is a lispHow so?
>>109280199I guess it's OK if you're stuck on Wayland for some reason
>>109278648>Julia is a lisp.I often wish this were true, but it's not really. It does have a lot of lisp-inspired features though. These include:- A macro system- Multimethod dispatch (similar to CLOS)- A culture of putting docstrings on everything (similar to Emacs)- A culture of using long-lived REPLs due to slow startup (also similar to Emacs and maybe Clojure)It can be made to look like a lisp if you use LispSyntax.jl, but this is a bit of a toy that doesn't really expose the full power of Julia in the lispy syntax.https://github.com/swadey/LispSyntax.jl
>>109278648Julia might not be a lisp but the parser is written in scheme, which is fun:https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/blob/master/src/julia-parser.scm
>>109273557I usually prefer REPL on the right, but sometimes, I put the REPL on the bottom.
>>109278648>>109283127samefagging for a bit of a postscript.If you want a statistics language to be a lisp in spirit, R might be a stronger contender:>The design of R has been heavily influenced by two existing languages: Becker, Chambers & Wilks’ S and Sussman’s Scheme. Whereas the resulting language is very similar in appearance to S, the underlying implementation and semantics are derived from Scheme.https://cran.r-project.org/doc/FAQ/R-FAQ.html#What-is-R_003f

>>109283294>python, the datascience languageYeaaah, at work work we have scientists who use R and scientists who use python.R is definitely more suitable for scientific programming (and I really liked its lispy metaprogramming, at least to the extent I got to play around with it). But for some reason R people decided to ruin everything by building a culture around ignoring the stdlib and pulling literally everything from CRAN, creating dependency hells that are out of this world... Even those who've been bitten before still can't bring themselves to just stop worrying and ditch tidyverse/dplyr/etc...>In python you have to use specific methods that accept "mycolumn" string.You can actually do some nifty things with decorators and operator overloading. On the flip side I have hated every system that actually made use of that power...
>>109280199Any of these have decent stacking yet? I remember they mentioned the other Emacs wayland compositor (the one bootstrapped with Claude) over this for stacking and more features. Isn't River modular and was stacking at some point?
