What book by Jones would you recommend starting with?

Read a few, added to my rss reader :) that's the same author as https://www.web3isgoinggreat.com/ which is feels a bit more snarky but very fun.

I mean, yes [the] use articles is difficult for speakers of [the] Slavic languages, but then you normally see it like "we want to build code base", whereas this reeks of LLM voice.

Is this that 4D chess thing people keep talking about?

we live in different worlds.. I have only bought 10 year old wagons and kept them for at least 10 years

I wonder how many people actually had bad experiences with SO vs how many people found it genuinely helpful.

Native compilation is now default, so elisp is much faster than it was out of the box.

Tree-sitter support is quite smooth now, with automatic grammar installation.

Apparently very good Android support.

Canvas support is in master, people are building all kinds of crazy stuff[0] with this

Lots of nice built-in packages like modus themes, eglot, which-key. Editable grep/xref/occur results is also built-in now. New context menu things.

now I'm trying to imagine what artificially intelligent golden retriever bread looks like

    $ cat .inputrc 
    "\e\C-a": " | awk '{print $ }'\C-b\C-b\C-b"

then control+alt+a inserts your awk snippet, and you have even less reason to learn modern tools
