SIPB Cluedumps are informal technical talks open to the entire MIT community. They cover topics that are of general interest, such as web browsers, and topics specifically for the MIT computing community, such as Zephyr and Scripts. Cluedumps are usually one to two hours long, and we provide snacks.

2017 Cluedumps

[edit] Emacs: What is the biggest possible hammer for text editing?

Date: March 22, 2017, at 7:00 PM
Presenters: Kit Haines
Location: 4-231
Abstract: When things get old and big, things get weird. Emacs has survived some things you might (or might not) have heard of: the editor wars, five version control systems, its own church, the Emacs pinky, and elisp, only to grow in strange capabilities (like tetris) and oddities (how is this compiled exactly?). Don't worry, beginners! We'll talk about how to get started with this too, and bring you in on all the jokes, but if anyone wants to come correct me on the finer points of org-mode, that's great too.
