How often do you start your editor? I start emacs once at booot and keep it running, using emacsclient to open additional files from the command line.
Look, I think that writing your own editor is useful because one learns a lot. And of course, it doesn't need to use Lisp or even be extendable at all. But it's not Emacs any longer if you remove the Lisp part.
"Auch in diesem Fall hätte Palantir gerne mit den Autoren des Berichts zusammengearbeitet, um unseren Ansatz zur Entwicklung und zum Einsatz von Technologien zum Schutz der Privatsphäre und zur Wahrung von Rechten detailliert darzulegen." (In this case too, Palantir would have welcomed the opportunity to collaborate with the report's authors to provide a detailed explanation of our approach to developing and deploying technologies that protect privacy and uphold rights.)
It's not the function of the press to collaborate with the people/companies they write about.
Unfortunately(?), the original headline was just wrong. The DPOs did not impose a ban, the DPO community of Switzerland just recommended to move out of the cloud. This is not exactly news either, they have been leaning towards more restrictions for quite a while. But in most situations they can only issue recommendations, not binding rules.
