A rough gauge of the novel, self-authored code I maintain. Counted with cloc
(blank lines & comments excluded). Forks/clones are counted as my authored delta
only (via git log --author); prose, data, generated output and vendored
dependencies are excluded. Regenerated 2026-05-30.

Notes
- LaunchAgents + cron: 16 launchd plists (423) + restic / warm-snapshot / lattice scripts (~250). The per-pipeline scripts the agents/cron invoke are already counted under their own projects (beancount, new-site, reMarkable, notes).
- reMarkable revised from the earlier ~28,400 estimate to 21,687 honest code-only (the old figure folded in Markdown design docs / vendored apps).
- Forks with no novel contribution (excluded entirely): org_flutter, org_parser, packt-chatbot, listudy, gitsync, autofill-example.
mathematicsis a writing repo (~36k lines of TeX/Org math notes, only ~1.9k actual code) — treated as prose, not counted.interviewsmixes vendored/template material and couldn’t be cleanly attributed — excluded.- The
~/dotfiles/lattice/migration toolchain (~690 LOC: build/dedup/refactor/shim) was authored during the 2026-05 lattice migration; excluded from the totals above.

More generally, all the Remarkable code that we have built with the Agentic tooling sums up to:

Preparing for the technical interview
- consider multiple approaches
- edge-cases is good, but you should also consider input verification!
- choosing the hashmap was great, but the candidate didn’t really explain why
Here is my review of the TKL Tilters and also of the Diagonal 15 degrees tilters.
Overall, 4 stars from me.
The product works well, but there are some thorns.
I had one tilter break on me whilst installing the set, and it appears I was not really sent left and right diagonal tilters – they’re all just the same piece.
Here is an image:

I am sharing them with you for the benefit of knowledge.
Naturally since this emerges from the topology of Emacs some of this page may not be sensible to you.

the device name for OS: 3.26.0.68
“Chiappa” (rM Move codename) — native 954×1696 portrait
Layout
- –tree / -T — recursive tree view (pair with –level=N / -L N to cap depth)
- –long / -l, –all / -a (twice -aa shows . and ..)
- -1 — one entry per line (good for piping)
- -R — recursive flat listing
- -F / –classify — trailing /, *, @ indicators
- -G / –grid — grid layout (default for short listings)
Columns in long mode
- –git — git status column (you have this)
- –git-repos — show repo status for subdirs that are git repos
- –header — column headers
- -h / –header vs -h inside -l shows human sizes (already on via -h)
- –total-size — sum sizes for directories (slow on big trees)
- -@ / –extended — macOS extended attrs / xattrs
- -B / –bytes — raw bytes instead of human-readable
- -o — show octal permissions
- –no-permissions, –no-filesize, –no-user, –no-time — trim columns
- –time=modified|accessed|created|changed — which timestamp
- –time-style=relative|iso|long-iso|default — relative is very readable
Sorting / filtering
- -s size|modified|created|accessed|name|extension|type (prefix with - or suffix with -r to reverse)
- –group-directories-first / –dirs-first
- -D — directories only; -f — files only
- -I ‘glob’ / –ignore-glob — exclude patterns
- –git-ignore — respect .gitignore
Icons / color
- –icons=auto|always|never (needs Nerd Font)
- –color=always — force color when piping
- –hyperlink — terminal-clickable filenames (kitty supports this)

Originally the AI suffix stood for archived intellect, however these days it has concretised to becoming an Augmenting Infrastructure — a place from which to branch out in many directions.
Within this site you will find self-contained material in the form of project posts and blog posts, but also external links 1 to other work – my own as well as not.
