How Colts DC Lou Anarumo Will Scheme Open Laiatu Latu: Overload Fronts
The NFL is a matchup league. It’s a cliche—but there also is a lot of truth to it.…

@baleine and I have been messing around with Guile's Stack Traces and now they are freaking awesome.
> It's really stunning that it does not mention the Scheme language
So very, very true.
There are several large pieces of history in this regard that deserve not only to be published, but to be studied well.
Just a properly written history of closures in computer programming would be worth its weight in gold.
Even a short history.

What I’d like to have is getting asserts and types checked at compile time and at run time.
@khinsen It is interesting you say that, because I had just started reading this paper which seems to discuss a technique that does what you are asking:
“A Practical Soft Type System for Scheme.” Andrew K. Wright, Robert Cartwright
I haven’t read the whole paper yet, but their approach apparently rewrites a Scheme program to a new output file, and it does a type inference and static type checking pass in the process. They apparently declared types for every API in the R4RS Scheme standard library. The rewritten program also has assertions for runtime type checking inserted wherever the type checker deemed that it was not able to check the type statically.

I'm excited to learn about another #free to read online #book: "Simply #Scheme: Introducing Computer Science" https://people.eecs.berkeley.edu/~bh/ss-toc2.html
Spent a little time messing with an extension for the #zed editor. I make heavy use of the todo.txt file format and a kind soul created a syntax highlighting extension for it.
I promptly added a simple but ham-fisted way to highlight kv strings and due dates: https://github.com/pursvir/zed-todo.txt/pull/1
I feel like I know even less about #treesitter grammars than I did before and a mix of #scheme and #javascript is so weird.
About a year ago, I wrote a #guile #scheme UUID library (https://codeberg.org/elb/guile-uuid) as part of a personal project that is currently stalled, but I went ahead and released the UUID library as #OpenSource / #FreeSoftware because it seemed individually useful. A few months ago, a kind third-party individual started the process of packaging it for #Guix (which I use!). Today he had the packaging PR merged on @Codeberg (where my project is also hosted). This is why I love FLOSS!

@MinervasRefuge Fear of Macros is nice. I went through it on the stream and adapted to guile specifics: https://youtu.be/Ag4movPnGa8?list=PLZmotIJq3yOJzhA0T6Y6EH2gxMfIm5pVQ
Also, take a look at syntax-rules primer: http://www.phyast.pitt.edu/~micheles/syntax-rules.pdf
And Writing Powerful Macros: https://mnieper.github.io/scheme-macros/README.html
I sat down the other day to re-look through David Thompson guile-bstructs library, as a learning exercise.
I re-learnt a few things I didn't know before. Like how far it's possible to push syntax-rules/case. I've never quite seen anything like it before.
I've said it before, but scheme syntax-rule related stuff isn't the most intuitive thing. Fear of Macros is still the best explanation I've read; but doesn't show off the capability quite like that library does.

byggsteg ( the free #guile #scheme #lisp ci/cd system ) now integrates nicely with #woodpecker and #codeberg #ci #cd thanks to custom plugins we developed, performace is also great due to #minimalist #container images and low amount of dependencies (and #alpine)
Easily submit a #byggsteg job (with retry mechanism) and poll for status, thus integrating the job at byggsteg and all logs, with the new actions at byggsteg-woodpecker:

I have something similar, with less complexity, I don't think "resend" is necessary, just a utility "super" function. You don't ideally want to expose (obj 'foo args) as dispatch, but it's fine.
Self-type ("JavaScript-like", if you were born this millennium) objects really make a lot more sense for a light, dynamic language.
Items! I'm running out of steam to do equip right now, but it's the same selector function as drop.
Weirdly, there's no list-drop-nth function in Scheme, so I wrote one, kinda naively:
(define (list-drop-nth ls n)
(let loop [ (ls ls) (i 0) (out '()) ]
(if (null? ls)
(reverse out)
(loop (cdr ls) (inc i) (if (= i n) out (cons (car ls) out))
))))
(`delete` matches by equality, not index)

Everyone: Python is weird, main starts with:
if __name__=="__main__":
main(sys.argv[1:])
Me, side-eye:
(unless (member (program-name) '("chez" "petit" "scheme")) ;; is REPL
(main (command-line-arguments))
)
(I also sometimes use (member "--run" (command-line-arguments)) or the like, but program-name is clearer.
Some Schemes call main if you use it as a command-line program, not with load or include, but Chez leaves that up to you. RnRS specs are silent on the issue.)
