I usually quote webpages by writing a <blockquote> with a hyperlink to the original, and avoid embedding tweets for privacy and performance reasons.

If the source supports [Webmentions][https://webmention.net/], I'll send it too.

You can run weechat on server and connect via ssh (https://aaronparecki.com/2015/08/29/8/why-i-live-in-irc describes this setup)

As an example, I think that 'securely send files from A to B' is mostly unsolved at this point for most people. (GPG is not an option)

Going to great lengths to avoid writing Rust.

That is indeed another perspective, yet not that different after all, if we'd look at what programming _is_. At its core, it is problem solving and mashing keys on the keyboard.

I don't think that keyboard part is really meaningful to anyone who claims to love programming, so it must be problem solving coupled with complex interactions between abstract idea how to solve it with concrete pecularities of programming languages, platforms, libraries, etc. The second part doesn't go anywhere whether you solve problems for Business Folks or scratch your own itch.

That means that difference between the perspectives is only who's supplying the problems. That reminds me of another distinction, namely, the one between painters and commercial illustrators (not sure if that is proper nomenclature). The path of Painter is hard and lonely, most of the painters we know today did some kind of commercial work or lived off 'grants' from philantropists. Or you can earn your paycheck doing something else and program as a hobbyist, for its own sake. I think that this is also valid programming 'culture' that exists somewhat under the radars of 'tech industry'.

Language switch is problematic for Emacs users in general, 'cause it messes with bindings.

So when I do emacs I use mule, which is mapped by default as C-/. It is not so bad if you remap Caps to Control, but still not one key.

Do you program in SQL? (I've just pressed Shift and released it after I typed SQL, hey)

Using Caps Lock for its intended purpose means that it's another mode that you need mental resources to keep track of.

Historical aside that's not related to your comment: early Soviet computers modeled after IBM PC had Latin key, that basically worked like Shift, but it changed layout from Cyrillic to Latin and vice versa. This idea died after MS Windows, that didn't (and still doesn't? I don't know) have this option, took over the market.

How do you test presentation components, by comparing with some "ideal" result?
