        I am an <a class="external-link" href="https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/">Emacs</a> enthusiast, so I welcome you to my <a class="external-link" href="https://github.com/FrancisMurillo/.emacs.d">customized Emacs</a> themed blog.
        Since I don't have an eye for design, I just emulate my working Emacs environment to pass for personality.
        <br /><br />
        My blog is categorized by <a class="external-link" href="https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Minor-Modes.html#Minor-Modes">minor modes</a>.
        <ul>
            <li class="item-definition">
                <div>
                    <a class="internal-link" href="/hacker">
                        Hacker
                    </a>
                </div>
                <span>
                    Living my life in Emacs, I want to show my love and support on how it changed my life. Also as a polyglot and idealist, I talk about hacks, ideas, lessons and musings from various fields that you might hopefully find useful.
                </span>
            </li>
            <li class="item-definition">
                <div>
                    <a class="internal-link" href="/watcher">
                        Watcher
                    </a>
                </div>
                <span>
                    I watch too many films and play too much video games. Since I can't play and watch everything, I tend pick and choose quality, meaning and personal value to maximize time and minimize frustration.
                </span>
            </li>
        </ul>

        To get started, click on any of the minor modes above or checkout the latest posts below. Although it takes a long time to research and write papers and presentations, I hope to write something every month but things always seem to happen that take my focus away. Nonetheless, I hope you find these writings useful or entertaining or both.
