Two cool ideas about connection and community: Unity in diversity and E pluribus unum.
When you run Bash under shell in Emacs on macOS then update_terminal_cwd is never defined and after every command you get the error message bash: update_terminal_cwd: command not found making the shell unusable.
The simplest solution is to define update_terminal_cwd when it isn’t defined.
Here is the code:
if [ -z “$(type -t update_terminal_cwd)” ] || [ “$(type -t update_terminal_cwd)” != “function” ]; then
update_terminal_cwd() {
true
}

The IBM AS/400 (aka iSeries) is a combined hardware application server platform. Instead of worrying about the next hot new framework, you have everything that you need to get business done. It is really quite nice in that regard.
Great news: Emacs runs on it.

My friend has a free lecture tonight. It is about dealing conversations that go totally wrong. For example, you start out having a nice conversation over the 4th of July weekend and next thing you know the topic of favorite football teams come up. Things just went from casual to serious. Then since the conversation is already going so well somebody changes it to public policies regarding controversial topics. Things just went from serious to critical. Ouch, that isn’t what anybody intended, but it is easy to recover from this.
My friend has a free lecture tonight about how to turn these really intense and downright angry conversations back to where they began: two passionate people who want to share what they value and feel with people who they respect and care for. Check out how—it is possible for all of us immediately.
