--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8-

# uncomment one of these before export.
# for hourly version:
# #+EXCLUDE_TAGS: programming
# for programming version
# #+EXCLUDE_TAGS: hourly

** Some hourly job

* Programming languages                                         :programming:
