Given I do all of my banking online, I find it odd that I'm so wary of exclusively
online banks. Aspiration seems legit, right?—@ndw
@ndw I’ve been using First Internet Bank of Indiana since 2003. Happy customer.—@hunterhacker
@ndw I've used an online-only bank since 2001. As long as it's FDIC insured, there's no
worry.—@ispraveendead

Been hacking #Emacs again the past few days. Serious fun. Also: finally became a helm convert. Seriously
productive.—@ndw
@ndw Curious: what language do you write most of your code in? Are you doing that coding
in Emacs as well?—@avernet
@avernet Day job is mostly XQuery. I also do XML, XSLT, JavaScript, Java, Scala, and others.
#Emacs for everything but Java and Scala.—@ndw
@ndw BTW, if you're interested in digging into ENSIME, I'd recommend this talk by @fommil and @a_dev_musing. https://t.co/3AlYltY0BS—@avernet
