* 2026-03-30 Emacs news
It's not too late to write about [[https://sdf.org/~pkal/blog/emacs/mistake=
s.html][mistakes and misconceptions]] as part of the Emacs Carnival for Mar=
ch and not too early to think about the theme of "Newbies/Starter Kits" whi=
ch Cena will be hosting for April. Who knows, maybe those ideas can become =
part of the [[https://github.com/emacs-mirror/emacs/blob/db412283d6b4fb8ea9=
d48629add952bf8fe2f423/etc/themes/newcomers-presets-theme.el][newcomers pre=
sets]].
It could be fun to explore something like [[https://org-roam.nshephard.dev/=
#754f25a5-3429-4504-8a17-4efea1568eba][notes for Emacs beginners]] and see =
where you end up.
Also, I'm looking forward to seeing if these tips for [[https://emacsredux.=
com/blog/2026/03/25/reloading-emacs-lisp-code/][reloading Emacs Lisp code]]=
can help me avoid little bugs from leftover code.
Enjoy!
