May 12th 2026 - Things I Worked On

Took pictures of Ayala Mall for Davao Explorer

Added org capture for journal

This will automatically add a journal entry to the last day: 

(setq org-capture-templates
      '(
        ("i" "Inbox" entry (file+headline "~/gtd/inbox.org" "Inbox")
         "* TODO %?")

        ("j" "Journal" plain (file "~/org/journal.org")
         "** %^{Entry}")

        ("c" "Calendar" entry (file "~/org/calendar.org")
         "* %^{Description}\nSCHEDULED: %^t")))

Added getting extended weather

After having the current weather displaying in Emacs I wanted to also show the full forecast for the day. I created a function that display this info in a help window so I can use the q keybinding to quickly close it. 

(defun my/weather-display-extended ()
  "Get the extended weather for today at my location"
  (interactive)
  (with-help-window "*weather*"
    (with-current-buffer "*weather*")
    (erase-buffer)
    (insert (shell-command-to-string "curl -s \"wttr.in/?1Tu\""))
    (goto-char (point-min))))

(evil-leader/set-key
  "w e f" 'my/weather-display-extended)

Added function to format code in source blocks

(defun my/format-code-in-source-block ()
  "Format the source code within the current Org-mode block.

This command applies the appropriate indentation and formatting
rules to the code block at point, ensuring the content is
consistent with the underlying language's style guidelines."
  (interactive)
  (save-excursion
    (org-babel-do-in-edit-buffer
     (indent-region (point-min) (point-max)))))

(evil-leader/set-key
  "c c" 'my/format-code-in-source-block)
