man, #guile #scheme is v cool, v v good.

(but also, i really really struggle with the absensce of nil punning. instead of nil everywhere have '(), \#f, and the dreaded \#<unspecified>. why on earth would i want my when clause to return the latter when it could just return nil? i can't fathom it.)

e.g. this bit of the manual i find glaringly, demonstrably false:

"When you go to write an ‘if’ without an alternate (a “one-armed ‘if’”), part of what you are expressing is that you don’t care about the return value (or values) of the expression."

but guile v cool, v v good.

(now i'm gonna turn into one of those folks dreaming about guile emacs, coz it if worked out you'd imaging writing all your extensions and packages and hacks in this elegant motherfucker of a lisp...)

Every time I want to leave #lisp or #scheme based language I stumble across awesome talk which reminds me why I love it in the first place.

Damn #repl driven development is so damn awesome. Now a days If I need to write some automation scripts I use #babashka lot instead of #bash or #python

Wondering if I should also make a line/expression-based editor #SRFI for #Scheme. @PaniczGodek time for TeleGRASP?

Oh, my #Scheme #SRFI is coming along nicely. I even smuggled in functionality that isn’t there in #CommonLisp, but should be! So hyped up about it.

Published some of the code that I'm eventually going to turn into physics simulations on my website (once I figure out Hoot). Right now it's some physics functions (and the corresponding math) in Scheme.

#Physics #Guile #Scheme

There it is, a fresh #GNU Mes #scheme #interpreter work blog post.

This time giving more answers than questions.

Long term work is hard, dudes.
