Something I really don't understand with LLM adoption is, WHY SO MUCH HURRY???
What are you afraid of? What does it mean to "fall behind" here?
Whenever you see some projects banning LLM contributions, like GNU (temporarily), you have people coming along and being like "it's over, GNU will fall behind." ( https://yhetil.org/emacs-devel/[email protected]/T/#mb1ee66e8e0b1b9a6440cea58df7c0f8a6019c46f )
And now with @npub1tra…q9a6 's policy: https://nlnetlabs.nl/llm-policy/

I am talking about free software projects.

the difference between a "programming language" and a "scripting language" is not some hard definition.

I recommend reading https://tilde.town/~ramin_hal9001/articles/emacs-fulfills-the-unix-philosophy.html by [@ramin_hal9001](https://fe.disroot.org/users/ramin_hal9001 )

what about GNU Screen?

1. genuinely a chore to enable it, so I don't want to rely on packages there too much.
2. yeah nonGNU and GNU elpa have a higher guarantee of being free software.
3. Also not a fan of MELPA updating to latest everytime (I think it follows latest commit?) Though there is a melpa stable.

Speaking for myself, I am just stubborn about using only ELPA or nonGNU ELPA.

these llms no joke *deliberately* generate more code, so that you use up more tokens.

You can also create your own disney movies and distribute them freely. If you ignore that it is illegal.

all the #emacs themes on GNU ELPA, nonGNU ELPA, and MELPA.

That might be true for some programs. But most programs (TUI) are not at all designed for that.
Vim, for example, is not at all like that. I don't know if you can at least pipe buffer regions into programs or not, probably can. But that is something I do all the time inside Emacs.
(I know you are joking).

I guess you just have to reinvent emacs but in a way that they are not easily interlope-able...

Can Emacs do it.

lol i guess it assumes you don't use emacs.

I don't think this is a very productive way to talk to people.

are you saying no body wants compatibility?

? I don't understand what you mean by that.

it is defaulting like that because compatibility.

> although I think the UI if the vanilla #Emacs is hideous
I wouldn't call it "hideous", I actually like it. But that is maybe
because I just love Emacs.

Emacs should really teach the newbie everything they need to know IMO.
There shouldn't be a need to research beforehand. Which is which why I
think we need a configuration wizard of sorts.

I agree, we need something like a wizard built in.

If you are talking about "willingness" stuff, yes, he was completely wrong.

for a moment I thought a LLM bot has taken over your account.

you could have tried to do it on #lemmy or just here.

Do you even know what the words you use mean? Ridiculous! Of course GNU Linux-libre has less contributors because they are a downstream project which only removes the non-free bits from Linux mainline. Why do you think they would need the same amount of people.
"oligarchy" lmao, embarrassing.

`dired-copy-filename-as-kill` is also a thing, you just need to provide it with 0 as a prefix argument, so `0 w` will do what you need.

here is how you find it.
While in Dired Mode go to a file and run
C-h k RET
This will tell you what function runs when you hit RET in a Dired buffer.
From the help buffer, click on the source code file name, or just hit s.
Can see `dired-get-file-for-visit` is being called.
Hope it saves you some time in the future when trying to extend GNU #Emacs. 😁
