    "The Lindy effect (also known as Lindy's Law) is a theorized phenomenon by which the future life expectancy of some non-perishable things, like a technology or an idea, is proportional to their current age. Thus, the Lindy effect proposes the longer a period something has survived to exist or be used in the present, it is also likely to have a longer remaining life expectancy. Longevity implies a resistance to change, obsolescence or competition and greater odds of continued existence into the future."

    I still use emacs. I've been using emacs as my IDE for the longest time, until about two years ago. Why did I stop? Well, I still use it, but just the core functionality. I stopped using it as my primary IDE b/c I was tired of companies having an old version of emacs and having to get around their firewall to get a new one, or making work around with the version that they had. Not to mention, all the setup I needed to do even if I got all the packages that I wanted. The whole process can take as long as the contracted work I signed on to do.
