Marvellous paper discussing the complexities of modern OS development and the design philisophies of Interim OS: http://t.co/wVRbGkKYgZ

RISC-V is gaining amazing momentum. There are already GCC: http://t.co/jFSRyTonzz and LLVM: http://t.co/Kb5b0MyMYz ports!
A great selection of incremental search (isearch) tips on /r/emacs: https://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comments/3ljllx/went_for_ages_without_learning_to_properly_use/
Since CPU performance is no longer rapidly increasing, have we passed the golden age of interpreters? Many newer languages are compiled.
The Luxury of Ignorance: An Open-Source Horror Story http://t.co/J9KwGdLQxY Great discussion of configuring CUPS -- user testing matters!
If you perform the same edit repeatedly, create an elisp command! Today, I added a command to toggle func visiblity: https://github.com/Wilfred/.emacs.d/commit/d2b448f97538d057a14e820fef7faa125c7cbd84
An extraordinary feat of engineering: a self-hosting lisp system in the browser: http://t.co/jsKJMtJqRp
Using docker to root the host machine: http://t.co/ZDMrD0oyZz
Fantastic lisp-machine influenced 'language oriented kernel' on raspberry pi: http://t.co/CNuyhDh08Z
Rebol keeps coming up as a language with interesting metaprogramming features. Worth putting in some time to explore it.
Do syntax-aware diff tools exist? I'd like to see "in this commit: one function added, one parameter added to function foo".
Rust source code includes everything you need to generate basic tags! https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/1rlv79/did_you_know_you_can_generate_tags_for_rust/
Ordering compiler passes is a really interesting problem. When you get it right, each pass increases opportunities for the others.
Interesting to see ag beat pt in code search benchmarks: http://t.co/6YbJZRCyGk (I'd love to see measurements of other projects too though)
Sloccount says I have 360KLOC in ~/.emacs.d/elpa! Biggest packages are org, slime, helm, haskell-mode and magit (94, 45, 15, 14, 12 KLOC).
It's a shame unfollowing folks where 20% of tweets are great but 80% are boring (or not in English). Are there smarter Twitter clients?
In assembly, JMP may be encoded as various different opcodes, and compilers (LLVM here) carefully choose the best: http://t.co/fFSbavVxd6
I suspect there's a strong correlation between the age of a programming language and how much it uses UPPERCASE FUNCTIONALITY.
Another great @magit_emacs feature: when rebasing, you can see progress as you work through conflicting commits. http://t.co/5Zy2rCg8IF
Today's Emacs tool: smerge. It highlights conflicts, differences and provides smerge-keep-current to choose between. http://t.co/hyO15HKAOl
