Fuck myself, literally. This is me for the past 20 years. Imagining myself writing GPL licensed software, in Clojure, using Vim through an actual (not emulated) Linux terminal, for the domain I have the most knowledge, making millions.

:%s/Clojure/IDEALISTIC_LANGUAGE_OF_12_YEARS_AGO/g for older projects.

Reminds me of 2017. All I did was use C++ again for a year. I finished two personal projects and worked on an opensource project for a month. Every before that was as you described.

Ouch, shoudn't it be Emacs? /s

I tried so hard to use Emacs, the pinky pain is real :) I know about parinfer but, oddly, Vim has better tools for navigating through parens et al out of the box.
I think you have the Fireplace plugin for Vim but yeah Emacs for any Lisp is a no-brainer.
