TLDR Either is either Left or Right with values inside. Either is a union type. It's a concept that is language agnostic. It's right biased. Left is used to transport/represent errors. Right is used to transport/represent the successful data. =flatMap= and =map= are used to chain them together. bind is sugar over =flatMap= and =map= to make the code more sequential and easier to read. It short circuits if it gets a Left. Read more

Intro Got a new computer from work, this is some quick notes on how my Emacs setup looks. Run Emacs as daemon with LaunchAgent. Fetch mails periodically with mbsync via LaunchAgent. Install brew install --cask emacs brew install mu brew install isync brew install gpg brew ls --verbose emacs brew ls --verbose mu Mu4a Replace USERNAME with your info. mkdir -p ~/.mail/work ~/.mail/gmail mu init --maildir=~/.mail --my-address=USERNAME@gmail.com --my-address=USERNAME@work.com mu index mbsync -Va mu index Mbsync config cat ~/.

I had to write a resume and searched the web for solutions that looked good. Quickly found the AltaCV template that liantze have made and I think it looks really good! This is my notes on how I got the template to compile. Clone AltaCV template Navigate to the GitHub repo AltaCV and clone it to your local system. In this example I have cloned it to ~/git. cd ~/git/ git clone https://github. Read more

Intro RxJava is a Java library that can be used to create non blocking reactive systems in Java. The mindset of non blocking and how to work with RxJava was a bit hard for me to grasp, and still is! I am by no means a skilled RxJava user. But I have found a tool that helps me on the journey to become a better one. And of course this is Org mode and Emacs. Read more

Intro This is the third post in a series about Emacs Org mode and the second about source code blocks. The last post about source code blocks (blocks from now on) covered org document variables, named blocks and combining blocks. This post will focus on how and where block result output will end up. It won't cover all of the arguments and features as I don't use all of them. Read more

Intro This post describes my workflow for learning the AWK programming language using Emacs, Org mode and Org-drill. The workflow may work for other programming languages. The post won't cover details on how to use Emacs, Org mode or Org-drill. It's intention is to provide a general overview of a workflow. A git repo is available with flash cards, note book and some text files here. Content I just read a few chapters in the "The AWK programming language" book and found AWK to be awesome and I want to learn more of the language. Read more

Intro This post is the second part about GnuPG, password management, email, signing and encrypting emails and git commit signing. The first posts talked about GnuPG key generation, password management using pass, how to sign git commits and how Emacs connects with most of it. This post will focus on how to manage mails in Emacs with Mu4e and how to signing and encrypting messages with GnuPG. As the posts cover a lot of ground step by step instructions are not desirable. Read more

Intro This post is the first out of two about GnuPG, password management, email, signing and encrypting emails and git commit signing. As always with a helping hand from Emacs. As the posts cover a lot of ground step by step instructions are not desirable. Links to more detailed resources can be found in each section. The main goal is to provide a quick but informative overview and give inspiration for further research. Read more

Intro This is the second post in the serie of how I use Emacs Org mode (from now on org) and it will cover usage of org tables. Some of the content assumes basic knowledge about org. If you are new to org I can recommend this two videos; hrs and kitchin. Org tables are like spreadsheets with super powers. Tables can be used to keep information organized, as input to source blocks (more about that in the first post, "Emacs Org mode source blocks") or used in calculations. Read more
