A Love Letter to Intellectualism
gnu.org - contains everything you need to research his philosophy.
stallman.org - personal website, contains a lot of opinion, but I absolutely respect this man in all what he says.
emacs.org (redirects to https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/) - his non-philosophical work, one of two mainstream console text editors.

The KGB, the Computer and Me – The Cuckoo's Egg Story [video]
Forever, there was a file included in stock Emacs, `spook.el`, which could be hooked up to automatically add random strings of "interesting" keywords to each of your email or Usenet messages (in signatures, or in headers like `X-Spook`).

Try `M-x spook RET` in an Emacs buffer.

How to combine daily journal with general database of people, places, things, etc.
If you want to spare a couple of detours, you probably could start with Emacs Org-mode according to Greenspun's eleventh rule: "Any sufficiently complicated PIM or note-taking program contains an ad hoc, informally specified, bug-ridden, slow implementation of half of Org mode."

Microsoft is exploring adding a command line text editor into Windows, and it wants your feedback

Using Common Lisp in Emacs
The whole cl-lib thing is a total disaster:
https://github.com/emacs-mirror/emacs/blob/master/lisp/emacs...
They added cl- as a prefix to each Common Lisp symbol.
FIRST is now called cl-first, CAAAR is now cl-caaar .
I would really prefer if GNU Emacs removes all Common Lisp functionality, instead of creating this really wacky stuff, with discussions about this topic every year.

GNU Emacs is a versatile, open-source text editor that offers extensibility and customization—a sort of self-documenting real-time display editor. Our thanks for the suggestion go to CartanAnnullator.

Proof of Concept clang plugin that automatically binds C/C++ -> Lua
Their DEFUN and DEFVAR macros for example let us define a function or a variable that will be available as a Lisp function, and can be used as an ordinary C function from the C code. Emacs is written in pure C99 language and works with both GCC and Clang I believe. We can just define a C function via macro, and it is auto exported and made available to Lisp. For example my first patch to Emacs was for this function (we added "count" argument to make it possible to skip enumerating files in a directory for the case when user code is just interesting if a directory is empty or not):

A nano like text editor built with pure C
Neat, I am a fan of minimalist text editors. There is also uEmacs: https://github.com/torvalds/uemacs
- Linus UEmacs

How many years have you been using Emacs?
maybe you're talking about the uEmacs Linus Torvalds still uses today? it's still maintained by him to fit his needs: https://github.com/torvalds/uemacs
-
Glory to Vim!
u/DellOptiplexFan Ironic, since the literal creator of Linux uses a fork of microemacs https://github.com/torvalds/uemacs
-
what terminal editor was intended to replace emacs in macOS with emacs bindings?
Torvalds's Emacs is nice. https://github.com/torvalds/uemacs
-
I just learned that new Macs don't come with Emacs preinstalled
Looks like he uses a thing called uEmacs.

Setting up a fundraiser for multi-threaded Emacs, any thoughts on this?
Why don't you ask Linus? Or even better, read his motivation in his fork of microemacs (not GNU Emacs).

Sunsetting Atom Text Editor
He doesn't. Linus uses MicroEMACS [0], which is an entirely different editor that uses emacs bindings.
It's not the lisp machine that incidentally happens to edit code that GNU Emacs is.
Or, as he puts it [1]:
> I use this abomination called "micro-emacs", which has absolutely nothing to do with GNU emacs except that some of the key bindings are similar.
- Starting emacs without any Elisp and only the C-core?
-
Linus thinks emacs is terrible
Then on the other hand he has his own fork of µEmacs: https://github.com/torvalds/uemacs
