@eludom@fosstodon.org@sachac@emacs.ch @howard@emacs.ch @yantar92@emacs.ch actually there part of the conference I admire most is is the fact that that whole thing is obviously a labor of love by emacs geeks for emacs geeks, using and showcasing as much free software as possible. It creates community for those of us who are otherwise isolated in our dark holes using a 45 year old text editor and wondering quizzically why everything in our lives can't be reduced to text.

My favorite talk was Howard's, not because I do role playing games (last was probably a few late night D&D sessions in the 70s), but just seeing the shere existential joy possible in using emacs to scratch ones one itch, and then sharing the experience.

2nd favorite was Andrew Hyatt's LLM talk because it clearly showed how relevant a programmable text processing environment (that happens to have an editor) is to the brave new world of LLMs, possibly being as he intimated, positioned to lead the way.
What's old is new. Emacs was born in an AI lab. The challenge of computing as far back a Alan Turing was intelligence. This talk shows not the past, but emacs' place in the future.
