Terry,
havent you try to use selfmodifying #Lisp programs?
Selfmodifying program which always running searching proofs and then selfadding discovered facts into its knowledge base.
and all that without any ANNs fully symbolic. or maybe this system needs to be hybrid, ANNs needed just for estimation of what is important or pleasing.

Just sold a #lisp binary to a client. It builds on Debian, it runs on Debian. So simple. Bye bye #Python and your bugs at deploy time.

(related to lisp-journey.gitlab.io/blog/ru : I just use a #commonlisp script for my client needs, and someone wanted it. It uploads products data to an online store.)

I just discovered I got blocked by somebody whose opinion and posts I highly value.

Since can't imagine (or remember) which interaction might have triggered this course of action, I tried to reconstruct our last interaction(s) from web searches, and discovered the following:

(a) This is practically impossible to find past interaction with specific accounts.

(b) A couple of other accounts *I* have been following formerly which now block me without me remembering any untowards interaction with them.

This all makes me unexpectedly sad.

I think I'll put in another Mastodon moratorium for an indeterminate length of time.

Looking back, Mastodon did not really work for me, with what I'd term "meaningful" connections. This is very likely the way my mind works.

If anybody can recommend communities related to #lisp, #agile, #softwareengineering or #infosec, I'd appreciate if you could reply or DM. I am still missing connection there (after 2.5 years of Fedi, which should tell me something).

What is everyone else doing?

I basically just have tomorrow

Progress on my clone of the Emacs Lisp interpreter

This took me three months (a month longer than I had hoped), but I finally have merged it into the main branch!

This patch rewrites the Emacs Lisp lexer and parser in Scheme using Scheme code that is 100% compliant with the #R7RS standard, so it should now work across all compliant Scheme implementations. Previously the old parser relied on #Guile -specific regular expressions.

This patch also implements a new feature where a stack trace is printed when an error occurs. This of course makes debugging much, much easier. Previously the old parser did not keep track of where code evaluation was happening, it simply produced lists without source location information. The new parser constructs an abstract syntax tree (AST) and source locations are attached to the branches of the tree which can be used in error reporting and stack traces.

Next I will make whatever minor tweaks might be necessary to get my Emacs Lisp interpreter run on other Scheme implementations, in particular MIT Scheme, Gambit, Stklos, and Gauche. I would also like to try to get it running on Chicken and Chez, although these are going to be a bit more tricky.

Then I will continue with the task of implementing a new declarative GUI library.

The current reader does not track source locations, so error messages do not point you to where they occur 2. The current reader relies on the Guile-specific regular expression library, and this is not portable. This patch defines a ne...

Mi havas la senton, ke en tiu ĉi mondo ŝati lingvojn kiel #Lisp estas nun etideko kun "ne kapabla" sur ĝi. Se mi diris ke mi ŝatas tiun lingvon ĉe intervujoj, tiam oni reagis eĉ iomete time per la eldiraĵo "sed ni skribas en tiu ĉi laborejo Python", iel tiel ke mi nun elradas per tio, ke mi nun reskribas ĉion en Lisp aŭ #Smalltalk aŭ iu alia pli bona lingvo.

At some point within the last year I've realized that one can learn #languages for fun and I have to admit that learning another programming language is not that interesting anymore. I still like #lisp, because it is so comfortable to write for small utils, but otherwise I would just set on something like #golang for personal stuff and not care anymore. It is good enough of a tool. Or whatever language is required.
