Interview with an Emacs Enthusiast [Colorized]

Obligatory video "Interview with an Emacs Enthusiast in 2023 Colorized" [VIDEO] . "Emacs is a part-time job". I agree.

I knew mentioning EMACS would get the HN crowd riled up, that's the point. :) For laughs: Interview with an Emacs Enthusiast in 2023: [VIDEO] And to keep things fair and balanced, an Interview with a VIM Enthusiast: [LINK] "I actually wrote a vim versus IDE comparison.

I've been a fan of Kai Lentit ever since he accurately portrayed me (Emerald McS. et al, PhD) in my office at the University of Texas Instruments a while ago.
