Russia Today is not reliable source of information about anything for everyone. Don’t support Russian fake news factory.

In my "humble" oppinion only three most significant (decimal) digts count if you are looking at growth.

This list is far from being complete. Brainfuck is missing ;-)

In my opinion original blog post quite clearly point out what is wrong with "backbone" on Emacs.

By requiring to give concrete examples you two gave me good reason to rethink my point.

When I was writing my post I had in back of my head this well known feeling of frustration when struggling to do simplest thing I have to read vim help for 10 minutes or google random forums. It may be that most of it is due to intermittent use of both those editors and "muscle memory" from MS Office and alike. If new users are required to stop using their most common (good or bad) habits it reduce potential user base at least 100 times. I work in typical large office (everyone 95% of time do some kind of text editing) and nobody know what or use vim or Emacs. Maybe it would be better idea to "stupefy" those great editors for default install for new users and allow current users to easily revert "normal" settings. CUA mode in Emacs looks interesting, I will give it a try.

> Parent was very rude (...)

Really? Very rude??? I'm wondering why reaction to my comment was so harsh... It seems that Emacs users have really soft skin ;-)

My machine is from 2008 (partially) and doing fine.

>Funny enough Emacspeak for the blind totally owns any new GUI technology. They can do everything from inside: IM, web, news, coding, playing music, reading ebooks, MUD's, check the mainstream news...

I didn't know this. For sure GUI are useless for persons with significant visual impairment. Thumbs up for Emacs developers for helping people in need.

> Your reality and bullshit applications such as Electron based bloatwares are a bad joke against disabled people.

"Electron" apps are not my reality. I didn't know what it is (until now).

I use emacs and vim quite rarely, only when I see potential benefit of it. Both have some amazing features but also seems to be locked in stone age on IT. In my opinion this is most deterring for new user - not "steep learning curve". I wonder why they refuse to open their eyes to current (or at least 2000's) state of technology. They cling to ancient foundation of their programs as something unmovable and unchangeable. This just looks like appeal to tradition. Or they are total nerds that don't care about reality ;-)

Is there any way to isolate wine and limit write permisions to user files? I only found this https://askubuntu.com/questions/327223/how-to-isolate-wine#3...

use computers not apples

Simple solution (just 4 steps).

Instal Orbot (tor proxy), run it, setup Settings->Select apps->What's up and give the finger to your censors.

bug was filed, bug is fixed Hail to the Developers!

To clarify. I'm not expert (only wrote one thesis and designed nonlinear manipulator motion control system based on NN). But... Watching their video, as a noob, feels like drinking stream of bullshit from fire hose. If it really works and do what they claim - I beg, fire you marketing/media/whatever guy. It look like ad of self sharpening knifes.

look like fraud

AutoCAD is computer aided drawing software (like MsPaint) FreeCAD is computer aided designing software. But buggy as hell ;-)

Sketch-up us is useless toy from engineering point of view. Good for "sketchy" modeling. FreeCAD is fully parametric 3D cad system. It's great for precision design. Unfortunately buggy as hell.

It's true. It's amazing. I'm using it at work for years for simple modeling and assembly. But now I can't. Why you ask? They compiled it with buggy version of C++11 library ("boost" or something) and it doesn't work at all. Thank you developers! You ruined my experience with this great software.
