Saw a Pebble watch in person today. I love the idea of a hackable smartwatch, but I haven't found a compelling (for me) app yet.

Today I learnt that Emacs 28 shipped a context-menu-mode! https://oylenshpeegul.gitlab.io/blog/posts/20230129/ This seems quintessentially Emacs: deeply hackable, but building UI features in an order very different to the mainstream.

Context menus in Emacs 28!

Today I learned that Emacs 28 added context-menu-mode so that we can easily add context menus. This is a minor mode which you can toggle with M-x context-menu-mode RET but I added hooks to enable it for text mode and a couple others (add-hook 'text-mode-hook 'context-menu-mode) (add-hook 'shell-mode-hook 'context-menu-mode) (add-hook 'dired-mode-hook 'context-menu-mode) I did not hook prog mode because some of the fancier lsp things already use mouse-3.

Suppose you want to make a small, hackable interpreter, so you write an AST walker. Could you recover performance by supporting lightweight threads that use all the CPUs? The Python GIL preferred single threaded performance over multithreading, this is the opposite.

We will enable the mobile equivalent of "View Source" http://t.co/WRiNZQfQ9c New directions for firefoxOS! I'd love a more hackable phone.
