Text Editor Data Structures: Rethinking Undo
vundo is a simpler implementation: it reuses Emacs's tree and just implements the visualisation part.
undo-tree is a reimplementation of Emacs's tree based undo, that supports a visualization.

How to undo the undo
That said, the situations seems murky still: the version in ELPA is newer (0.7.5), but it's still outdated, the home page advertises 0.8.2 as the latest version. And it moved to a different repository location. And looking at its history, it seems to never have included the version 0.7.5: https://gitlab.com/tsc25/undo-tree/-/commit/5da2a7aee98393d26a93c499dc79fcf793f161e1

Why is it so hard to see code from 5 minutes ago?
It’s easier to mentally map that the default behaviour undo/redo for Emacs (which is not unreasonable, just complex).
The source for undo-tree contains documentation which very effectively describes the way the library works with examples and comparisons with how Emacs does things by default: https://gitlab.com/tsc25/undo-tree/-/blob/master/undo-tree.e...

undo-tree git repository is not available anymore?
Looks like the repo is moved to https://gitlab.com/tsc25/undo-tree

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`).

Looks like copyright date of 1988:

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."

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.

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):
