This article introduces Git from a special and interesting perspective, which allow users (who are of course programmers) to quickly get the core of Git philosophy, rather than getting confused by tons of Git commands. Brilliant! Thank you for sharing! I cannot wait recommending this article to my friends and collegues again and again. I read the PDF version twice, and still can learn something new.

]]> Comment on Using org-mode as a Day Planner by Greg http://newartisans.com/2007/08/using-org-mode-as-a-day-planner/#comment-990 Greg Mon, 14 May 2012 16:27:14 +0000 http://newartisans.com/2007/08/using_org-mode_as_a_day_planner/#comment-990 John, First, thanks for such a great article. I'm glad to see someone share the day-to-day process along with their configuration. I have several questions. Do you only have two .org files, todo.org and notes.org? Do you maintain project plans and informational notes separately and then migrate only the tasks to todo.org? I see notes.org in the configuration, but not in the body of the article. How do you use notes.org? Finally, this article is almost 5 years old. What changes have you made? Thanks and keep writing! I read your planner-mode commentary often for inspiration. John,

First, thanks for such a great article. I’m glad to see someone share the day-to-day process along with their configuration. I have several questions.

Do you only have two .org files, todo.org and notes.org? Do you maintain project plans and informational notes separately and then migrate only the tasks to todo.org? I see notes.org in the configuration, but not in the body of the article. How do you use notes.org? Finally, this article is almost 5 years old. What changes have you made?

Thanks and keep writing! I read your planner-mode commentary often for inspiration.

It does not strip away the <i>magicness</i> of a monad — you still can’t tell Haskell, "given <code>M a</code>, give me the <code>a</code> it contains". All you can tell is "given <code>M a</code>, please apply this function to the value <i>inside</i> <code>M a</code>". It is true that <code>M a</code> may not always “contain a value”, but above description is an intuitive way to understand what happens, I think. Also, can you please the two other similar posts I made on this thread? Couldn't get the formatting right in them. :) M a -> (a -> b) -> M b can be implemented for any monad: f a b = a >>= (return . b) (or using a better do notation that I’m unable to format correctly).
