What is the exact definition of an IDE? JetBrain's products are as good as ever, in my opinion, but people have definitely made non-IDEs into big, hulking behemoths with tons of plugins. If anything, maybe "just an editor" is dead?
I think they mean the transition that all IDE's are making towards an agentic interface, hiding the code completely as humans will not have to interact with it since the AI will be doing a better job at everything, even auditing it.
Another little corner of the internet. Anything using fixed-width fonts and without pictures has surely got to be promising in this day and age, surely...
The best Mcp server I have as Claude Connector is Emacs running on my Homeserver. It has one tool - eval-elisp. Using it Claude can do almost anything. My top 1 pinned chat is โRun agent-start-claude-code using HotterEmacs in dir โฆโ - after that I have a ready to use remote-controlled session running on my homeserver.
This sounds like a really interesting idea. What would you say are its advantages over having the agent use the shell, write shell scripts, etc? Just your personal preference for elisp or something else?
To load a skill I literally type - โload (โdoc 'slack) and browse channel X for todayโ. The idea is my text stays English but repeating concepts are real reusable elisp functions that stay fully deterministic. (โdoc 'agent) and Claude knows how to talk to open code and pi agents.

creator of textlog - Is there a way to get an atom version of the โfor-youโ feed? Iโm guessing this is complicated by needing to be authenticated.

Iโm enjoying it. tbh I never played the game, but his journal entries are a fun view into the mind, insecurities and all, of someone building something theyโre excited about.
