Keen interests in world-building, storytelling, normative ethics, playing games, reading, cooking and eating food, diving into complex systems, collecting, making, tweaking, and using tools, and spending time appreciating nature, friends, and family.
You can reach me at yo at molloy dot soy, but I'm not looking for paid projects currently. I will edit technical writing or blog posts for FOSS software if I have the time–feel free to make requests!
I recently decided to start tracking my life todos in addition to the work projects, which was as simple as creating a life directory and running `git init`.
Org-mode does require using emacs, if it is too crufty for you or you don't like the learning curve, try spacemacs! Its org layer[0] is well configured, and it is also well suited for modal editing if that's your thing.
Check out avy-goto-char! In my setup, `<SPC> j j {` and then one or two homerow keys would move the cursor there. And the rest of the avy functions are useful as well: https://github.com/abo-abo/avy/blob/master/README.md
There are other options too that can be situationally more efficient, but avy-goto-char is faster than reaching for your mouse (at least anecdotally) and you don't have to think about.
Minor nitpick: Erlang uses processes, not threads. Your comment doesn't explicitly say that Erlang uses threads though, so perhaps I'm being overly pedantic.
