I've been using beorg, and I hear Plain Org is also pretty nifty.

For the use case of linking to a heading somewhere in one of my org-refile-targets, I use C-u C-c C-w (org-refile) and then an Embark action to insert the link to the heading: sachachua.com/blog/2024/10...

That is one of the downsides of using a starter kit like Spacemacs, sorry... You'll probably need to look for Spacemacs-specific tutorials. Doom Emacs might also be a similar starter kit (if you're looking for Vim-like keybindings) with possibly a more active community.

It was a lot of fun! There are some more technical details on how to run a conference in Emacs at emacsconf.org/2023/talks/e...

I got emacstv-play-random working from Emacs and it is actually pretty awesome. :)

I've been experimenting with "I get to" and "I choose to", both of which I picked up from somewhere else. :)

Interview wasn't by me, just posted it on my blog because the people who interviewed Thierry didn't have a blog of their own. :) But yeah, very cool story!

Other things that help me stay sane-ish: capturing ideas in my Org file (I may get to them several years from now, but at least they're written down), and keeping a short journal (progress is invisible day by day, but it accumulates)

That was a big struggle for me too. Sometimes I swapped off with my husband for a quick nap after dinner, which was often enough to make bedtimes less painful. Sometimes I just accepted that I wouldn't have much focused time for years - still have very limited time even though the kid is 8.

No, it's more about livestreaming. Since it turns out the other service I had wanted to restream to might be a little flaky at the moment, I can get by with just using OBS to directly stream to YouTube.

Another option is to use OBS to stream to RTMP directly; I just have to either manually update the profile or rerun my ansible scripts every shift (AM/PM). Probably doable, less fussy.

Hah, not sure we can really recommend it until there's an #Emacs package for reading and replying to Bluesky posts; bonus points for Org link capture. @thundertheidiot.bsky.social? :)

Ooooh, any chance you've posted your code somewhere?
