    Ich bin es von Logseq gewöhnt, mit `[[Wor` eine Vervollständigung zu bekommen, das auszuwählen und dann wird ein Link zu `[[Wort]]`eingebaut. Wie macht ihr das mit orgmode?

    Dabei ist bei mir `Wort` eine Überschrift mit einer ID `Wort`. Der Weg C-c C-l und `id:Wort` einzugeben oder direkt `[[id:Wort][Wort]]` einzugeben, erscheint mir fehlerbehaftet. Ich hätte gern eine Art Autovervollständigung. Ideen?

        I just read the transcript of @sacha and @karthink's conversation with John Wiegley about his setup that he uses to organize everything in his life.

        Wiegley is living in the future.

        He has over forty thousand entries spread throughout more than three thousand org files, around 28000 TODO items with about a thousand of them open. It's too much data to even look at so he has some very sophisticated ways of dealing with it. His org agenda views will surface random selections of entries for him to review; upon review with a few keystrokes he can schedule them to work on or schedule them for further review in the future. He decided on a fairly strict set of conventions for how org entries should be written, including that the leading verb must be chosen from a controlled vocabulary and wrote a Haskell program to parse his org files and put them into a Postgres database which he can query. The database has vector search to find semantically similar items even if they are worded differently. He also has a local LLM backing an instance of OpenClaw that can query this database, access his org files and talk to him on Discord and Whatsapp, letting him find relevant entries from his org files by messaging the agent from his phone.

        It's amazing, maybe not something I'd want for myself, but definitely a fascinating read!

                          After a recent post by @chiply on r/emacs, I decided to give Hyperbole another shot. I installed it and it stole some some important key bindings including M-o which I use for other-window. I still want to give it a shot, but now I need to install it again because my body rejected it: I uninstalled it on autopilot so quickly I didn't have time to think "It's OK, I still want to try it, I'm sure I can change the key bindings". By the time that thought was finished the mode was deactivated and the package deleted! 😅

                          In this case it wasn't what I wanted, but it's good to know my instincts kick in quickly to protect me from Emacs dangers.

                          EDIT: Surely hyperbole-mode being activated upon *instalation* counts as a bug?

                          EDIT 2: Wow! It clobbers the global binding for C-h h! Even if you turn hyperbole-mode off you still loose your binding for C-h h. 😱

                            An example:

                            (embark-define-regexp-target bug "bug#\\([0-9]+\\)" url
                            (concat "debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport."

                            I don't have many other good examples. For most link types I prefer the uniform Org link prefix syntax, e.g., `geo:...` for links, since this is already very little syntax. Did you try to define a PascalCase Embark target?

                                            A key feature is that it is possible to attach code blocks to clicking on elements, and the lisp code that runs is chosen by the clim presentation-type of thing being clicked on ; this would be attractive to use
