What is wrong with MELPA on Microsoft Github?

Mon, 19 Oct 2020 14:19:14 GMT

2020-10-19 This article will tell what is wrong with MELPA as repository of packages for GNU Emacs. It coerces both developers and free software users to use the proprietary Javascript on Microsoft Github, it allows any type of software even if such software is to guide users to use proprietary software, and it lacks basics of any security in software distribution, packages are unsigned, in fact, the continuous build system does not verify packages for security issues, it is an automated machine for distribution of software that lacks care for users.

GNU Kind Communications Guidelines

Thu, 17 Oct 2019 20:39:48 GMT

The GNU Project encourages contributions from anyone who wishes to advance the development of the GNU system, regardless of gender, race, ethnic group, physical appearance, religion, cultural background, and any other demographic characteristics, as well as personal political views. People are sometimes discouraged from participating in GNU development because of certain patterns of communication that strike them as unfriendly, unwelcoming, rejecting, or harsh. This discouragement particularly affects members of disprivileged demographics, but it is not limited to them. Therefore, we ask all contributors to make a conscious effort, in GNU Project discussions, to communicate in ways that avoid that outcome—to avoid practices that will predictably and unnecessarily risk putting some contributors off.

Emacs Lisp: calculate interest rates on accrued HYIP investments

Mon, 09 Sep 2019 06:44:31 GMT

HYIP is High Yield Investment Program, a kind of a fraudulent scheme. We are not promoting such scheme rather dis-advising people who get caught by the greed and possibility to earn high income within few days. Sometimes the "yield" may be as much as 5% per week and more. And people investing into the HYIP or High Yield Investment Programs believe the nonsense. This Emacs Lisp function can demonstrate what money could the company earn would they be collecting money themselves, without asking public to receive more and more investments. Calculate yourself and compare it logically, and you will come to conclusion that a company offering that high interest rates would never ask public for new investments, they could be earning it themselves without sharing with anybody.

Tue, 20 Aug 2019 10:35:39 GMT

Central Files: meta_tables

Tue, 20 Aug 2019 13:23:40 GMT

Tue, 20 Aug 2019 13:26:10 GMT

Central Files is management of personal information. Any information that belongs to any person is managed in Central Files. Everything relating to communication with any person that ever contacted the organization is managed in such collection. It could be paper base. Today, computers are used to manage such information in databases. It is my opinion that every person shall be able to design the database as they think it gives them most benefits. The pages about Central Files will hopefully help GNU Emacs users to design their own relational databases and edit information in a quick and efficient manner thus increasing productivity and communication quality and speed with related persons.

Emacs Lisp: read-from-buffer versus read-from-minibuffer, returns string from editing

Tue, 20 Aug 2019 10:35:39 GMT

As I am often editing database fields, and such fields could represent Org Mode or Markdown documents, this function is handy to quickly edit the string and return it back. It has no version control, thus I must take care what I am doing and how I am editing the string. As if something is lost, is lost forever.

GNU Common Lisp - CLISP is an ANSI Common Lisp Implementation and general-purpose programming language and an Artificial Intelligence language, interactive, a Lisp for professional use, a standard language: the syntax and semantics will not change tomorrow at someone's whim, easy to test (interactive), easy to maintain (depending on programming style), portable across hardware/OS platforms and implementations (there is a standard for the language and the library functions), needs only 4 MB of memory, implements most of the ANSI standard, as well as many extensions, can call your preferred editor, is freely distributable.

Emacs Lisp: why is programming language Emacs Lisp so comfortable?

Tue, 20 Aug 2019 13:23:47 GMT

My thoughts about the programming language Emacs Lisp. Apparently and initially designed to extend the GNU Emacs Editor, Emacs Lisp has grown into fully fledged programming language. Things like CGI, database interfaces, contact management, customer relationship management, project management, and so many other features becamse possible within GNU Emacs. Here is the summary on what I think what makes GNU Emacs and Emacs Lisp so comfortable programming language.

Emacs Lisp: Record screen within GNU Emacs

Tue, 20 Aug 2019 10:35:39 GMT

The program third party program `recordmydesktop` is used for this function to invoke screen recording within GNU Emacs. You may wish to make a demonstration in video and publish such online. Record it while using few keybindings or `M-x record-screen`. This page is giving you the concept of a workflow. I consider workflow more important then the function itself. You please modify it to suit your own needs. The `screen-record-command` is spitting out the actual screen recording command, customize it as you wish.

Emacs Lisp: Send Status to your GNU Social instance via XMPP or Jabber protocol

Tue, 20 Aug 2019 10:35:39 GMT

This is simple customization that helps the user to send status to GNU Social instance by using XMPP protocol. It means you could get notices over messenger from GNU Social and you could send notices over any XMPP or Jabber messenger to GNU Social instance. You are getting connected wherever you are. XMPP is much easier to use then web browser. The username `update@gnusocial.club` is your GNU social instance virtual friend. That is something you set up in your GNU Social profile under IM menu. Requirement is that administrator has enabled the menu and XMPP plugin for the GNU Social instance. As of now 2019-08-07 I just guess there are not so many GNU Social instances with XMPP connection. And then you need to have your own XMPP username or Jabber ID. Such need not be on GNU Social instance, it can be anywhere you wish, on any server, if you already have it, you can use your own Jabber ID to send status updates to GNU Social instance and vice versa, you can also receive messages over GNU Social instance. Change it to suit you. It is just a simplification of the `jabber-send-message` function in the Emacs Lisp package `jabber.el`. Great one! Coordinate with your team members, assign tasks directly from GNU Emacs to their messengers. Possibilities are wide to help in communication and coordination in any team. Otherwise have fun with decentralized GNU Social networks!

That means the software that respects user’s freedom to use it as they wish, for whatever purpose they wish, to copy the software as they wish, to study it, to modify it and to distribute the original software or modified software. It is about liberty, and not about the price of software.
