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.

Claude asked me a question today: was I looking for an Emacs plugin (because I was talking about elisp) or a Rust program (because I have configured Rust preferences)? I'm really impressed, it's rare to see LLMs ask follow-up questions. (I wanted Emacs in this case.)

Overall it seems like the Rust for Linux is making huge strides. Greg KH is super supportive of it[1] and the wider Linux community is pretty positive[2] (see all the quotes at the end of the slides). 1: https://lore.kernel.org/rust-for-linux/2025021954-flaccid-pucker-f7d9@gregkh/ 2: https://fosdem.org/2025/schedule/event/fosdem-2025-6507-rust-for-linux/
