#Lisp

2026-02-06

@amoroso @aartaka Standardized has a bunch of different embedded languages (LOOP -> macro-based transpiler, FORMAT strings -> interpreter and transpiler, CLOS -> extension of Lisp, ...). As libraries there are zillions more of those. Then CL inherits features from Lisp 1, Maclisp variants and has evolved from CLtL1, CLtL2, ANSI CL. One thing that is missing: CL-USER . The CL-USER package contains an implementation specific largely extended version of Common Lisp.

@superketchup jup eh. Das ist jedenfalls die Hoffnung von Esperanto-Sprechern, wie mir, wo ich annehme das du dazu gehörst, wenn du dieses alte Argument für #Esperanto auspackst.

Und ja, bei #Lisp war es auch immer "oh die Klammern". Ich weiß auch nicht mehr.

Ich werd bald 40 und bin einfach nur mehr frustriert von meinem Leben und den Mitmenschen.

Lem editor news: it just got the one shortcut that makes me a 10x developer: `lisp-call-defun` bound (as in Slime) to C-c C-y.

(this one is strangely absent from Sly)

#lisp #commonlisp

In Lem, Alt-x slime-call-defun (bound to C-c C-y) prefills a call to the toplevel form on the REPL. It speeds up development.

@screwlisp @kentpitman I’m just reading up on the MIT-Scheme condition system. Recent efforts to standardize this are defined in SRFI-255: “Restarting conditions”.

An older standards condition systems in Scheme was defined in SRFI-35: “Conditions”. And #Guile users can use the Guile implementation of SRFI-35 to make use of it.

I wish I had known about this two weeks ago when we first started talking about it on the #LispyGopherClimate show, but better late than never, I guess.

The pretty and overtly useable rewrite of my earlier brace of articles.

An important condition handling style mistake I cleaned up was that I had previously put HANDLER-BIND /inside/ my INFER. But this freezes it in place; I might as well have used functions as such. Now the algorithm graph is essentially the condition handlers and restarts outside the function at runtime.

Hope it lands soon! 🤞

Artyom Bologov @aartaka describes the languages and programming styles that are in Common Lisp. To me Common Lisp is more a rich toolbox than a family of languages.

What I haven't yet truly understood is the magic of call/cc in #scheme #lisp

I rarely use it at all and I'm always puzzled when people use it for things like replaying a state or continuing an execution at some time.

Here is another one screenshot. I changed the palette a bit.

I also gamma corrected it to uhhhh I forgot to do that on the default shader.

#lisp

Nothing major, but I did learn about gradient textures so I made the floating crystal to use it. I also had to change up how I handle texture filtering in opengl to make it look nice.

The benefit this gives me is that I can shift the uvs and change the color of the crystal with a small texture. I'm using a 32x32 texture of a color palette.

...and, no I won't subject a library book to the sorts of (ab)use a tome will take when I'm actively ingesting a topic of deep interest.

An unmarked book rarely provides me with enough depth to benefit my learning significantly beyond the rote.

Books using #lisp to illustrate programming concepts: „we picked lisp because it has easy syntax and is easy to understand.”

The same books: here are hundreds of crazy lisp tricks, helper functions with strange names, macros, and black magic we employed to make the examples work.

And we, in the early days of the Internet and World Wide Web, were Punk:

Passionately writing software and then giving it away for free. Self expression through code. Hacking at systems to free it from its tightly held constraints.

Renegades and outlaws... coding #Forth even when the establishment said it encourages bad habits. Poetry expressed via #perl. Doing things with #awk that the left the original authors in shock and awe ("..we never intended *that*"). Embedding adhoc DSLs and #lisp interpreters inside of applications to extend capabilities....

"The street finds its own uses for things..." .

Indeed.
