Debug startup:
- some packages were missing explicit use-package calls, which made this
configuration incompatible with fresh computers. After crashing my MBP
and trying to get this working thereafter, I learned.
Support LSP:
- LSP support for Haskell is good; embrace and prefer over Intero
Update KBDs:
- preferences change
- changing to a light theme (for now)
This was previously semi-supported. There were two problems, however:
1. My fill-column value of 80 got out-of-sync with my white-line-column
value of 100.
Solution: globally define wpc/fill-column, set that to 80, and
consume the new const in my config.
2. Nothing was activating whitespace mode.
Solution: add whitespace-mode to prog-mode-hook.
This SO answer helped tremendously:

Useful since the new configuration branches according to a boolean that
encodes whether or not the Ergodox is connected.
Since I'm frequently switching between programming at my desk to
programming AFK, I need a faster way to update my Slate configuration.
Ideally - some script would watch the USB port for whether or not the
Ergo was connected. Until then...
Finally ported my up-to-date emacs configuration here. I was putting
this off for a long while, unsure of how to handle all of the work. All
it took was my laptop being fried to force me to do this. So... voila!
