I'm still using the one from @kjhealy.co forked from another starter kit, filled with my own customizations that I no longer understand but am terrified to lose or change. It gives me some satisfaction knowing that the frontier models still are terrible at elisp, however.

I have a faint resemblance to Steve Spurrier, and I used to get a predictably outraged reaction from freshman at UF when I would tell them that I easily could have coached the team to a victory over Marshall or whoever the first-week sacrifice was.

My main hobby (tennis) gives me access to the opinions of non-academic educated Louisianans, at least on occasion, and nothing seems to matter them to more than coaching buyouts, salary contracts, and what they would do if they were in charge (as it should be).

I thought it was a very lucid review. My interest in these movements relates primarily to their co-development with statistical/probabilistic ideas first and then computational ones. Moral ambiguity and statistical inference, type of thing. The construction of the genius-as-utilitarian.
