- Move all children from configs/shared into configs.
- Delete "shared" directory.

As I pruned increasingly more dependencies, the few dependencies that desktop
and laptop hosted were too trivial for me to justify supporting. And so, I no
longer support them.

While I do still technically own a Google cloudtop device, I haven't used it in
at least six months. In the interest of pruning non-critical dependencies, I'm
deleting it. I can alway restore it thanks to Git.

Renaming my mono-repo briefcase.
I first introduced this commit in master, but it introduced a bug where one of
two things would happen:
1. Emacs wouldn't start and would crash X.
2. Emacs would start but my keyboard wouldn't work.
I learned some valuable debugging skills in the process. Here are some of them:
When my keyboard was broken, I wanted to control my computer using my
laptop. Thankfully this is possible by using `x2x`, which forward X events from
the SSH client to the SSH host.
```shell
> # I'm unsure if this is the *exact* command
> ssh -X desktop x2x -west :0.0
```
Git commit-local bisecting. I didn't need to do a `git bisect` because I knew
which commit introduced the bug; it was HEAD, master. But -- as you can see from
the size of this commit -- there are many changes involved. I wanted to binary
search through the changes, so I did the following workflow using `magit`:
- git reset --soft HEAD^
- git stash 1/2 of the files changed
- re-run `nix-env -f ~/briefcase/emacs -i`
- restart X session
- If the problem persists, the bug exists in the non-stashed files. Repeat the
process until you find the bug.
In my case, the bug was pretty benign. Calling `(exwm/switch "Dotfiles")` at the
bottom of `window-manager.el` was failing because "Dotfiles" is the name of a
non-existent workspace; it should've been `(exwm/switch "Briefcase")`.
There may have been more problems. I changed a few other things along the way,
including exposing the env vars BRIEFCASE to `wpcarros-emacs` inside of
`emacs/default.nix`.
The important part is that this was a valuable learning opportunity, and I'm
glad that I'm walking away from the two days of "lost productivity" feeling
actually productive.

I recently changed my hostname for my desktop and laptop from
wpcarro.lon.corp.google.com -> zeno.lon.corp.google.com
wpcarro2 -> seneca
If you're curious, the names Zeno and Seneca come from famous Stoic
philosophers. As you can see from this commit, my configuration depends on the
values of these hostnames.
Immediately impacted:
- .profile
- device.el
Not immediately impacted:
- configs/install
- configs/uninstall
- .ssh/config
- .zshrc*
* As a side note, I should stop supporting ZSH.
Using an .envrc file helps me DRY up some of my configuration. Ideally I should
only need to make changes to the .envrc file and then expect everything to work
as expected. Let's see how that goes.

Currently paying the price of months of non-diligent git usage.
Here's what has changed.
- Theming support in Gvcci and wpgtk
- Dropping support for i3
- Supporting EXWM
- Many Elisp modules
- Collapsed redundant directories in ./configs

Until I change my hostname, I'll need to use wpcarro. Internally on
Google networks, this laptop is resolvable via wpcarro.roam.*
Idea: consider defining in ~/.profile:
DESKTOP_NAME=<name>
LAPTOP_NAME=<name>
CLOUDTOP_NAME=<name>
...and then refer to these environment variables throughout my
configuration that depends on them. E.g. -
- configs/install
- configs/uninstall
- .zshrc
- .ssh/config
For now, I'll stick with the path of least resistance.

Dropping support for OSX. Moving forward these dotfiles will depend on Linux
systems. Furthermore, since I'm support a ~/bin, the machines that consume these
dotfiles depend on i386 architectures. Linux and i386 are two dependencies that
I'm okay with since the leverage this assumption provides, makes their existence
tolerable.
There is some Google leakage herein, which includes aliases, functions, and
mentions of cloudtop. For now, this is okay. I may break the Google specific
code into its own repository, but for now, this is less maintenance.
This also introduces a ~/.profile instead of erroneously defining environment
variables in my zshrc file, which was unadvised.
This is a large commit and also introduces new aliases, variables, functions
that I accumulated over the past week or so while migrating away from OSX and
onto my new setup. Hopefully in the future I'll be more precise with my commits.
