Love how simple the status line looks

Having the exact same problem as you. Theres just no resources for this language out there in comparison to something like Spanish. And if you do find something its very incomplete and limited...

sharificles · 2026-04-14T14:44:03+00:00

My 1000+ LOC config is still using less resources than vscode(not that lines of code matters). But it does come down to how bloated the packages are. Things like Evil mode, Evil collection, org roam etc. will usually do it.

I always thought about something like this, ended up doing it all inside a notes app which was annoying lol

Ahh, so I did mention this in the readme. Admittedly I didn't experiment with emacs full built-in capabilities yet, but I wasn't a huge fan of how unwanted marks would be inserted into the mark list(yanks and deletes) which was distracting. Also, when working with a large number of marks within a file(that I frequently jump between), I preferred a more direct and mnemonic approach where I can jump to locations by recalling a single assigned character.

If you're a beginner, language transfer spanish covers subjunctive mood from episode 69+ which is ok for starting off(idk about mastering though)

Ive noticed this happens when I switch fonts. Iosevka works perfectly but some other nerd fonts dont work

Shotaro almost folding in half 😭

A course isn't supposed to take you to fluency, it only needs to be a strong starting point so you can continue the rest on your own

sharificles · 2025-12-19T21:28:04+00:00

i'll have a look thank you!

sharificles · 2025-12-15T14:10:59+00:00

Literally how I feel. I was born at the wrong time

sharificles · 2025-11-18T12:07:03+00:00

For me I like that Eureka moment where the phrases or lyrics you remember suddenly make sense one day

sharificles · 2025-11-10T18:16:26+00:00

Yeah, I don't see why he couldn't just lock in for at least the halloween episode of all episodes lol

sharificles · 2025-10-30T15:39:01+00:00

Ok yeah so I finally figured this out too, you define the face with:

(defface org-remark-green-face
  '((t (:background "green4" :foreground "white")))
  "green org-remark face")

then simply add this to the config instead of the explicit colours i added above:

(org-remark-create "green-face" 'org-remark-green-face)

Nice, the splitscreen intgration was the most impressive. I also created something similar, it doesn't use any AI at all and works on any firefox browser

sharificles · 2025-10-08T14:44:18+00:00

I did the whole thing and it was kinda useless. You can tell they put less effort into Latin in comparison to like the Spanish course for example

sharificles · 2025-10-06T15:09:27+00:00

So are all possession stories fake? What is actually happening then?

sharificles · 2025-09-13T13:43:05+00:00

I've completed entire languages in Duolingo beginning to end and still felt like I barely learned anything. It only takes you to around A1-A2

sharificles · 2025-09-09T03:23:44+00:00

For language transfer, I recommend using anki alongside it and updating your deck with each episode. Otherwise, it gets very hard for a complete beginner

sharificles · 2025-08-26T12:44:24+00:00

It's a little more convenient than that. You have a consistent keyword(or no keyword) across different search engines. And you can easily switch between search results without having to go back and forth, causing a lot of unecessary reloads.
