I often want to send Javascript from Emacs to the web browser. It's handy for testing code snippets or working with data on pages that require Javascript or authentication. I could start Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox with their remote debugging protocols, copy the websocket URLs, and talk to the browser through something like Puppeteer, but it's so much easier to use the Spookfox...

Summary (1895 words): There's a lot of hype around large language models (LLMs) or generative pre-trained transformers (GPTs) like ChatGPT. I'm still trying to figure out how I can use them. 2024-01-18-01 Large language models and me #ai #llm Text from sketch I'm a little curious about how large language models like ChatGPT might fit into my life. There's a lot of hype, and...

I have a tiny corporation for my consulting. I do all of my own paperwork. I have lots of notes in Org Mode for infrequent tasks like the tax-related paperwork I do once a year. My notes include checklists, links, and Org Babel blocks for calculations. I often need to copy standard text (ex: the name of the company) or parts of the output...

Inspired by the styling on Susam's blog feed, I followed this tutorial on using XML stylesheets and added XSL stylesheets for my RSS and Atom feeds. I have RSS and Atom feeds for all my posts as well as for each category or tag (ex: emacs). Figure 1: RSS feed after styling To make that happen, I added a line like this to my...

Watch on YouTube For this livestream, I experimented with scheduling it for 8:00 AM EST instead of just starting it whenever I could squeeze in the time.1 People dropped by! And asked questions! And suggested interesting things! Wow. This could be fun. I wrote a bunch of blog posts throughout the week and added lots of little videos to them. It was easy to...

Getting the sketches: PDFs are not all the same Animation style 1: displaying paths in order Identifying paths from Supernote sketches Sorting and animating the paths by IDs Animation style 2: Building up a map with temporary highlights Ideas for next steps tldr (2167 words): I can make animating presentation maps easier by writing my own functions for the Emacs text editor. In this...

John Kitchin includes little QR codes in his videos. I thought that was a neat touch that makes it easier for people to jump to a link while they're watching. I'd like to make it easier to show QR codes too. The following code lets me show a QR code for the Org link at point. Since many of my links use custom Org...

I'd like to get better at writing notes while coding and at turning those notes into blog posts and videos. I want to be able to link to files in projects easily with the ability to complete, follow, and export links. For example, [[subed:subed.el]] should become subed.el, which opens the file if I'm in Emacs and exports a link if I'm publishing a post....
