  • For the moment, I’m the only admin and I have control of everything (domain + server). There aren’t currently any backup plans in place as other things got in the way. There was some discussion of setting up a Bitwarden premium account which would let someone have emergency access to the server passwords, but I’d need someone to volunteer for that now (if anyone’s interested helping the admin side of things, lmk).

    And thinking about it, I should probably remove tom from the admin list just so people don’t contact them with random queries.






  • A ‘mode’ in emacs is a set of bindings which associate specific keys with specific functions.

    Not quite, a mode is basically a lisp function defined with a different macro that integrates it into the various systems (like showing up in the modeline when active). It can do basically anything, including setting keybinds.

    ‘modes’ can be stacked on top of each other, with higher modes being able to intercept key presses before they reach lower modes, and changes / manipulate lower modes (I think?)

    No, a keybind can only run one function and what that function is is whatever last defined a binding for that key. Like, if one mode defines a key to be something and you activate another that also binds that key, the latter takes over.

    Emacs does have something like you describe, where functions can be ‘advised’.
