If I'm not doing something with #Emacs, I'm probably doing something in #Emacs.

Live every day as if it were April 1st.

Google Books Ngram Viewer is a lot of fun, but… Who the heck was using #Vim in 1800? And what’s that uptick in #Emacs around 1880?

At least no one cared about #VSCode in the 19th century.

Edit: now I know more about old English.

A chart with years from 1800 to 2019 on the X-axis and values from 0% to 0.00220% on the Y-axis.

There are three series:

- Vim is spread more or less evenly across the chart
- Emacs has seen a small uptake in 1880 and a much larger one from 1980-2019 with a peak at 2000, twice as large as Vim's
- VS Code started appearing in 2014 and still hasn't reached Emacs. — A chart with years from 1800 to 2019 on the X-axis and values from 0% to 0.00220% on the Y-axis.
