These days, Unixes are quite generous in what they make available through their packaging systems, so you can often get everything you want through packages that someone else worries about building, updating, managing, and so on.

This year’s WWDC is going to be a big one for software changes, with iOS 19, macOS 16, and more expected to get major design overhauls.

I find myself telling people that they will have to pry org-mode from my cold dead hands. Which befuddles me.
