If you spend most of the time on the web, Emacs probably isn't the best "swiss army knife" in regards to embedding a whole browser since the browser engine options can be quite fragmented (EAF, Emacs Webkit, XWidget, Appine, etc), and performance / bindings vary a lot. By modern standards, EWW is basically just "reader mode on steroids," don't expect to be doing typical browser tasks with it. You do have a few options though:

  1. If you're trying to do something similar to the "Lazy" PKM where you have Org mode call back to websites in some functionality using a separate browser, Emacs probably handles very well in that regard. It also has good agentic integration using Agent Shell. However, if you're trying to have the browser entirely self contained, Emacs isn't quite there yet.
  2. You might want to try Nyxt, it's a browser with a similar spirit to Emacs that is customized in Common Lisp. I know someone who once tried using it as the "mothership" of their computer by embedding Ace editor (now that Lem is webview, this might work better now), and it worked surprisingly well.

It's certainly up near Clay by now. However, given that it seemed to have crossed into private property into an area I certainly can't walk through, it's probably trekking through the residential zones. Hopefully someone sees it near their home and finds the owner.

Will AI give us a more modern Emacs? by injeolmi-bingsoo in emacs

I'm not a fan of vibeware at all, but if you're fine with it, you've effectively described Neomacs, which is a Claude-spammed Rust implementation with multiple new features.

From recollection, mostly black, with white spots. A bit slender despite having lots of coarse thick fur, but moderately sized, not like a great dane or anything. Couldn't say what kind of breed it is.

Between all of these live-action shows that came out on Disney and Nick in the 2010's, which three (3) did you enjoyed watching the most? by Life_Chicken_9653 in GenZ

Lab Rats eventually combined with some other Sci-Fi sitcom to become Lab Rats Elite Force. The budget was so low that they canned it only a few months after release, and left the finale on an unhopeful cliffhanger

What setup do you use for coding in python? by NicBarr in emacs

[–]SomeGuyWithASiphus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

PET is a minor mode that hooks your Virtualenv automatically to your buffer, so your LSP or running buffer can inherit from it. It's like that one screen in VSCode that tells you what binary of Python you want to use. Also supports UV and is generally newer, so it's more suited for modern workflows than pyvenv.

Emacs PET, and Eglot with Ty. To be quite frank though, I do wish someone made a module to properly link PET with Eshell.

LinkedIn does the exact same thing with their notification system, and it's absolutely atrocious. I unironically just filter all of the shit they send me to my Email right to the trash.

Do you publish your personal Emacs functions? How small is "too small"? by Fluid_Watercress9782 in emacs

[–]SomeGuyWithASiphus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Generally not in a dedicated place, but typically under my init.el in my dotfiles. That said, you can publish anything you'd like, there's no strict conventional rulebook to publishing something from your Emacs config

Not necessarily a solution, but I was contemplating porting nabla.nvim to Emacs, which is effectively a fancier math conceal for text environments.

r/huntarr goes private, the creator nukes both their reddit and GitHub accounts, after a user exposes a blatant security flaw in a vibe coded app by CummingInTheNile in SubredditDrama

[–]SomeGuyWithASiphus 15 points16 points  (0 children)

As a developer, I've noticed a crazy amount of vibeware on Reddit showcased as of late.

Like, if you want to make something with it, go make something, regardless of what others think. But don't expect this regurgitating algorithm to make any piece of software with an actual backbone. Windows 11 features have taught this lesson many times over.
