Before #elsconf I was quietly working on #McCLIM HTML5 backend. The success was limited and I didn't run boomer (the presentation tool I wrote) directly in the browser (it was too slow), but generally rendering, events and even full applications can run in it if the user is forgiving :) #lisp #ecl

At the moment I'm working on improved generic function dispatch in ECL, but after that I'm planning to get back on track with integrating McCLIM inside the browser (canvas is a cool gimmick, but the real target is DOM+SVG nodes for custom graphics).

I had to include /usr/pkg/lib in LD_LIBRARY_PATH to keep configure happy.
Took me a while to realise that.

But now ecl_min is happily compiling files.

#netbsd #ecl #develop

@jackdaniel

Q: Will I notice a difference if I mostly use "normal" functions (as in (defun f (x) ...))?
Q: What is the performance impact on McCLIM?

Thank you for you help.

Some of you might have noticed, that lately I've been hacking hard on #ecl generic function tabled-based dispatch. I've composed a roadmap document for further work with concrete optimizations proposals that I'm executing now:

as you might have noticed, the link is to patreon. I'd greatly appreciate support!

If you have some interesting remarks about this proposal, then please share!

Rob has given the #BirdoftheDay theme as #Nesting, and I watched this Osprey come in from a distance - not sure what they were carrying, but it certainly didn't look like a fish. Something fancy for the nest! #Birds #ecl 🪶

are we fast yet?

D'après des données de renseignement d’origine électromagnétique, les célébrateurs de la récente finale ont employé ~ 85% de leur arsenal de chandelles romaines ( mortiers d'artifice ), soit l'équivalent de près de 31904 stades de foot - selon l'Institut pour l'étude de la guerre (ISW).

@caporalstrateg PS: je cherchais un équivalent à "expanded" en anglais mais je n'ai pas trouvé mieux, suggestions bienvenues.
