  • There is No “Tooling Issue” in Haskell

    You can use GHCI's debugger through Emacs's haskell-debug-mode (part of the haskell-mode package), and probably through other editor/IDEs as well, a programming editor like Emacs or Vim simply needs to be able to run a GHCI session and send commands to it.

    No, I was only using haskell-mode. So I guess this is LSP's fault, then. Not Emacs's fault and not haskell-mode's fault.
  • What’s so great about functional programming anyway?

    If I made it sound like there's something like IntelliSense today, apologies! We've got <https://github.com/haskell/haskell-mode/blob/master/haskell-...>, but it's type-a-command-and-do-a-search: it's not linked in with completion directly in the setups I've seen.

    (In practice, I'm usually starting from a slightly different place: I know I want a Frob and I've got a This and a That, so I do :hoogle This -> That -> Frob and get some options. The thought-process is working backwards from the goal more than forwards from one key object in focus. A different way of working, but I'm not convinced it's less effective.)

    My point though was that it's an engineering issue, not a fundamental language limitation. ie not a reason all future languages should shun haskell features. The building blocks to do better at completion than haskell curently does are there.

  • Requests for packages to add to NonGNU ELPA?
    6 projects | /r/emacs | 6 Oct 2021
    Package-lint has been on my list, but the maintainer, MELPA's Steve Purcell, has been hesitant about NonGNU ELPA in the past (see this discussion), so I have skipped his packages for now, and also because most of the packages he maintains have a "broken" version tag, most of the time -- the reason here is that MELPA adds these manually, and since he understandably is targetting MELPA, there is little interest from his side to fix that.

    I use haskell-mode. It has a shortcut for loading a module into REPL, and it also runs hasktags for me. That's literally all I use.

  • Ask HN: What do you use for note-taking or as knowledge base?
    5 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 1 Jan 2024
    I keep absolutely everything in a single folder. Saved documents, images, movies, financial records, game saves, it doesn't matter. My hierarchical naming scheme takes care of organization. On the odd occasion I actually need a folder, I just append ".d" to the filename.

    I use . as a hierarchy delimiter, so file extensions are just part of the hierarchy, and I can have multiple files with the same name except for the extension. For example, "film.spongebob.png" is a photo of spongebob, "film.spongebob.org" is a note about spongebob, and "film.spongebob.s1.e7" is my favorite episode.

    I use org-roam [1] for note-taking and task/time-management. I absolutely require a plain-text system so it either had to be markdown or org-mode. Emacs was the deciding factor, else I would have still been using Dendron [2]

    If OneNote is your thing, I'd probably recommend Obsidian [3] over org-roam. Despite it being the greatest program ever created, Emacs is a lot to learn "just" for taking notes.

    If you like VS Code, check out Dendron. It's the one that got me into more serious PKMS instead of just chucking notes in a folder all willy nilly.

  • Org-roam: find "linkable" text in node

    I'm using org-roam to keep my notes, which generally works well for me. There's one thing I am missing and I'm wondering if I just overlooked it, or whether it simply doesn't exist.

  • Bi-directional links in org mode?
    2 projects | /r/emacs | 7 Jul 2023
    Org-Roam is a Roam-inspired Emacs mode that builds on top of org mode. Every node (aka note) has a unique ID that's different from its name. Every link from node A to node B actually links to the ID, so you can change node B's name without affecting the link. When you're on node B, you can open the Roam buffer and it will show you all of the links that point to that node.

    Of course, the real power-user move would be to use Emacs with Org-Roam, but you have to be prepared to dive deep into the rabbit-hole. If you don't, it won't be worth it. If you do, you'll be handsomely rewarded. I know because I have, and I can highly recommend it if you like tinkering with and customising your tools. IMO, Doom Emacs is the way to go nowadays.
  • Has anyone here with ADHD or similar issues used org-mode to get your life on track?
    1 project | /r/orgmode | 5 Jun 2023
    I'd highly recommend Org-roam. It's what has enabled me to actually start consistently keeping notes (and being able to retrieve/access them later). It's very easy with Org-roam to quickly add new notes, or add information to old notes, and the links/backlinks make (re)discoverability very easy.
