After several months, I'm finally sharing the first pre-release of Emacs Indigo, a native #Emacs module that brings the #Indigo #cheminformatics library to Emacs #Lisp.
It's now at a point where the core functionality is solid enough to share. (1/7)

Australia has so much electricity from solar power that it is going to start offering free electricity to everyone for at least three hours during the day as the wholesale price of power goes negative

Australia has so much solar that it's offering everyone free electricity
Australia's extensive solar power penetration makes so much energy that the government wants to offer free electricity at peak hours.

Now exporting and formalizing my #qutebrowser keychains from my config into a proper project:

It should feel natural to any Evil #Emacs user and it is very readable already, though I still need to prepare a README and stuff
But the core is out there! (＾▽＾)

I got tired of Windows Start Menu's bloat and lag, so I built WindMenu, a dmenu-like launcher for Windows.
Keyboard-first, minimal UI, instant response, pure Win32 APIs. Here's how it took shape:

The recorded voicemail said they are not currently accepting immigration status tips.
