#today 's plan for me is to prepare to talk to @chiply three hours from now on the show as planned,

then *only after that* I will watch the #europeanlispsymposium conference livestream record, then tomorrow I will record my missing half hour presentation from me being AWOL (from Poland) for the conference record in hindsight. So I cannot speak to conference stuff today yet. Next week we'll review.

Mine would be #Rust . It seems like a fun language write command line applications with, but i haven't had enough standout ideas for this yet.

I just need to come up with an excuse.

Question of the Day - Software & Building Things

What language or framework are you secretly curious about but haven't tried yet?

#programming #devlife #builder

Tomorrow, "Tuesday evening in the Americas" #lispyGopherClimate #podcast will feature @chiply and we will be talking about fancy #emacs #autocomplete, its #lisp diaspora (#McCLIM completions!), antecedents and... Future.

Thoughts (and prayers) here please. #AMA (about the topic. Me mainly being https://www.chiply.dev/post-vompeccc-spot in this case.).

Edit: Aside, it probably does to mention for context that the following Sunday will be @yantar92 on #orgmode .

Lispy Gopher Climate banner classic. The lisp alien and gopher are having a very unix_surrealism experience

In general, I favour strongly, statically typed functional #programming languages, especially ML and its descendants: OCaml, F#, Clean, Miranda, Haskell, Agda, and Idris. But the following are a few of the strongly, dynamically typed languages (both OO and FP) that I like:

• OO—Smalltalk, Ruby, Python
• FP—Lisp, Scheme, Pure

PS—Those who are in both the Lisp camp and the ML camp of FP would enjoy Pure, a strongly, dynamically typed modern FP language.

tiny lua compiler: a lua compiler in a single file, that's well-documented, that was hand-crafted over several years, and made to teach you compiler/tokenizer/parser/lexer design.

this is a crazy impressive project, and in a time when people are haphazardly slopcoding projects, is a standard to live by.

In the meantime I found the #ecl #curl #example was not exactly what I had wanted, so I quickly wrote an example of putting the https://curl.se #http post example directly into ecl.

An emacs window split 3 ways: An embeddable common lisp ffi:c-progn with a curl.se easy post example in it: A shell running nc -l localhost 8080 which has just received an http POST (look it up (on curl.se)) and a lisp repl that has just called the posting function, (post-eg).

Alt...

Similar to the other window, but I typed "ok" back to the curl request from the netcat listening end, resulting in curl breaking the connection and printing DONE over in the lisp repl side. We can also see the embeddable common lisp compile-file invocation.

Ran across this gem from HN about AI. I'll let it speak for itself:

We've got a QA agent that needs to run through, say, 200 markdown files of requirements in a browser session... For the longest time we tried everything to get a prompt like the following working: "Look in this directory at the requirements files. For each requirement file, create a todo list item to determine if the application meets the requirements outlined in that file". In other words: Letting the model manage the high level control flow.

This started breaking down after ~30 files. Sometimes it would miss a file. Sometimes it would triple-test a bundle of files and take 10 minutes instead of 3. An error in one file would convince it it needs to re-test four previous files, for no reason. It was very frustrating.

There are people attempting to replace test suites with a prompt.

An LLM... a probabilistic machine... to replace a test, a logic-based assertion.

I don't even know where to begin.

Let's talk CLI/TUI and Developer Workflows!

I’m looking to refresh my local toolkit and I’m curious: what are the absolute "must-have" CLI or TUI programs in your current rotation?

Whether it's a specialized utility for a specific language, a terminal-based interface for a common service, or a workflow-changing alias, I want to hear about it. I’m especially interested in tools that prioritize keyboard-driven navigation and accessibility.

My Current Favorites:

To get the ball rolling, here are a few tools I’ve been leaning on lately:

• uv — Fast, reliable Python package and project management.
• fzf & ripgrep — The classic duo for fuzzy finding and searching.
• tmux — For session management and persistent terminal workspaces.
• jq / yq — Essential for wrangling JSON and YAML without leaving the prompt.

What about you?

1. What is one tool you've discovered recently that you can't live without?
2. Are there any TUI-based clients for web services (like Mastodon, GitHub, or RSS) that you recommend?
3. Do you have a favorite "hidden gem" script or small utility?

Of late, many #IT coders I know have begun expressing their interest in #MCU, #FPGA, and #ASIC, along with #electronic design and interfacing.

This lot had never expressed any interest in computing concepts that are below high-level #programming constructs in JavaScript and Python. But now, their MBA-shod managers have commanded them to find ways to reduce the power consumption of their #AI-infused systems.

I can already imagine this interaction:

"ChatGPT, design me an AI system that consumes less power—I don't know how much less, but less, nonetheless."

G'luck!

#Programming #DevLife #Advice

When I was working in the #Win311 world, I was tasked to create a tool for CSRs to use. I created this AWESOME monstrosity of an interface and dropped it on an entire department.

One of the CSRs looked at me with WTF in his eyes and asked:

“Why are you giving us a Death Star view? We're X-Wing Fighter Pilots. All we care about is that exhaust port at the end of the trench."

That stuck with me to this day.

Question of the day - #Programming #DevLife

What's something you learned about software from a completely non-technical source?

#Advice

@screwlisp
Tho, A) pipes are super concise, cat foo|sed 's/bar/quux/g'>foo2 is *amazing*.
Writing that in complex languages, and with handlers & exceptions, is much more
verbose so you woulnd't do it.
B) Pipes are bidirectional. You can do myrobot.sh|ed which does a bunch of commands interactively.

This conversation has grown wonderfully and beyond my imagined scope, but I wrote a second example of how I was thinking about it:

https://lispy-gopher-show.itch.io/lispmoo2/devlog/1488992/small-and-beautiful-common-lisp-conditions-like-unix-piping #commonLisp #programming #conditionHandling #scripting

in which I say

$ xargs cat <<"EOG" \
> | cut -d' ' -f2 \
> | xargs -d' ' echo
> foo.tsv
> EOG

and

the following lisp are similar in a number of ways.

https://lispy-gopher-show.itch.io/lispmoo2/devlog/1487350/iterating-grandfather-clock-using-ansi-common-lisp-conditions-as-such

The gist is a clock that chimes (cuckoos, here, I guess) harnessing the power of conditions.

I think this sm0l article indicates that ansi common lisp condition handling is a more powerful expression of but similar to unix pipes; look at what modifying the handlers does and is like in the article.

Happy 21st Birthday git 7 April 2005

#programming #devlife #Builders

I think one of my biggest oopsies was installing libraries in the C# world and not realizing that they were trial versions. I had never seen these types of things before.

The libraries didn't do much of anything special, but they were prohibitively expensive.

I ended up pulling a few all-nighters, recreating the library’s functionality to avoid going triple budget.

Question of the day - #programming #devlife

The worst technical decision you've ever made that seemed smart at the time?

#Builders

https://lispy-gopher-show.itch.io/lispmoo2/devlog/1481398/homespun-acl2-handler-bind-condition-handling

#acl2 simple introduction to acl2 for the #commonLisp inclined.

loop$, apply$, thms oh my.

In particular, I implement a model of a simple case of the common lisp condition system that is directly compatible with both ansi common lisp and acl2. (a computational logic for applicative common lisp).

#firstOrderLogic #theoremProving #programming #logic #example

Technically this is in support of my lisp / moo compatibility layer but I am not going to beleaguer the tag.

Can't say I'm knocking it out of the park, but I was uploading this note https://lispy-gopher-show.itch.io/lispmoo2/devlog/1480416/simple-handlerrestart-basis-for-lispmoo2-take-2 to ask @me for thoughts, but I guess you could venture thoughts too #commonLisp #programming #lambdaMOO #showerThoughts @dougmerritt
tl;dr

A macro that introduces player / feature objects as the sources of 'spatially local' handlers and restarts the same way lambdaMOO does.

A rock, that when it is in my inventory prints debugging information about actions and short-circuits evaluation.
