A CEO's Guide to Emacs
You can still find terminal interfaces for a lot of these things, including Slack: https://github.com/jpbruinsslot/slack-term. I don't use Emacs but I imagine you could integrate that somehow if you wanted to.
- Do SWE's actually use the command line?

today, I challenged myself to daily my beloved T60 for a week (T5500, 2GB, SSD, Arch/KDE)
If I accepted having an intermediate jump box, then things go even farther down. Any with a telnet client works, and with something like ZiModem that opens up literally anything with a serial port. I've done "real" work from an Atari 8-bit and Commodore 64 by telnetting to a jumpbox and then sshing into my work Macbook. Spending a whole day that way would be pretty challenging but it could be done. Throw in slack-term and I was able to even keep up with company chat. I was only doing it for fun so I didn't go all the way but I could have set up our g-suite in a terminal IMAP client.

My pinephone daily driver experiences so far
Slack/Discord This is the biggest gap for me so far. I haven't figured out how to get slack or discord to load in firefox. Those sites just redirect me to a page that tells me to download the Android app, even if I spoof the user agent. I use Slack for work, and Discord for communicating with some friends and family, so I'd still like to figure this out. The closest I've found for slack is slack-term which is terminal-based and seems to be abandoned. But it actually works (not well, but you can read and write messages), though the user experience is truly terrible on the phone, since you have to use the on-screen keyboard to do anything. Supposedly there is a matrix bridge, but I haven't tried it yet.

What's the best way to find an emacs ninja to help/hire?
NB. On integrating slack & other webby things. Terminal applications might be a big help here (the Windows terminal now has excellent compatibility if you’re using Windows). For instance, there’s a slack plugin for weechat (a terminal IRC / chat client) which by all accounts works pretty well. Or there’s this client that runs directly in a terminal.

I cancelled my Replit subscription
Reflecting a little bit more I don't think it was replit's fault, per-say. But that change should have been made together with a larger adjustment to the program. Like adding a class/unit in the style of [the missing semester](https://missing.csail.mit.edu/) to make sure people came away with a good range of intuitions.

Advice to a Novice Programmer
From MJD's post: I think CS curricula should have a class that focuses specifically on these issues, on the matter of how do you actually write software?
But they never do.
FWIW, MIT's "The Missing Semester of Your CS Education" attempts to deal with this lack, though, even there, it's an unofficial course taught between terms, during MIT's IAP -- Independent Activities Period[1] -- and not an actual CS course.

MIT's Missing Semester Class: Beyond the CS Curriculum
Rightly called The Missing Semester (of Your CS Education), this class from MIT will teach you how to use some of the tools that are fundamental to the software engineering ecosystem. From shell scripting to the fundamentals of information security—spanning around 12 lectures—you can add a bunch of practical skills to your toolbox.
