I guess the interesting addendum to this trajectory would be the style guide you wrote together with Norvig https://www.cs.umd.edu/~nau/cmsc421/norvig-lisp-style.pdf with notes on both #commonLisp and #scheme style differences.

Damn, I miss programming. I want to implement native type-checking in Chibi #Scheme, but it’s a No Laptop Week, so I can only do that on paper without looking at the source 😰

Is this a terrible way to add an element to the
end of a list in scheme/lisp ?

(reverse (cons 3 (reverse '(1 2))))

I lost two important projects when I moved OSes last week: my LARP game concepts, and a new #Scheme #SRFI draft. Both were version-controlled, but not backed up remotely. Now I have to lossly reproduce all of the lost material.

Make sure to back up / mirror your important projects 🖤

Mám rád oranžovou a proto na Zprávobot.news používám oranžové téma @TangerineUI. Nileane se bohužel rozhodla skončit a téma už nepodporuje Mastodon 4.6.

Protože ho nutně potřebuju, trochu jsem pátral, teď odpo poprgal a ještě své úpravy pushnul do repa tvářícího jako pokračování mandarinky.

Jsem zvědavý, jestli se alespoň něco z toho použije.

@mdhughes I keep deciding not to save (costs souls) and then dying, so I have not made it to choosing a class yet but maybe that day is today

Oh my fucking Cthulhu I hate Lisp packages, everyone who ever perpetrated this shit-ass "NO SYMBOL FUCKYOU:ASSHOLE FOUND" naming system should be lowered into a woodchipper toes-first at 1cm per hour. Livestreamed.

I have the zine sorta working, except I can't ever refer to any data in it, because I can't look the frame back up, it's always in the wrong package.

I really love Scheme. (import foo) ; now you can use foo's stuff.

(no, I'll work it out, just venting.)

Huge shout out to @ramin_hal9001 for what he's doing on #schemacs .
This has a bright future. I think Elisp lock-in is currently the main thing holding Emacs back (I don't mean it's going to get mainstream like VSCode, I mean compared to Emacs itself).
If with a refined architecture and #scheme / #guile as the base language, we can get multithreading, better speed overall, and configurations in guile instead of #elisp !

I would fully jump to the Emacs team.
