#RichardDawkins, the great #Scientist doesn't seem to have found his way to the #Fediverse, yet.
It struck me kinda odd, that he "re-tweeted" that #PokeMon #Idea, back on the former bird #SocialMedia, a few years ago.
Personally, i think, it's a TERRIBLE idea, to use a "specially crafted" #addictive #meme #scheme, created to extract the maximum amount of #currency from #children, via their #parents ..in order to TEACH #biology and #genetics!
I have a #Scheme script for public #mastodon api queries

I am currently looking for a #job . I am an experienced (senior) software developer/engineer with 7y of experience. If someone is looking for a capable software engineer or knows someone looking for engineers, please let me know.
I do #python #scheme #django #docker and aim for reproducible software. I learned some #devops and #ansible and can manage servers. Used to do #fullstack dev work, before everything needed to be an SPA.
I am looking for #remote work or work in #berlin or #potsdam .
i'm trying to try out guile, which i know nothing about, for some small scripting.
does it have a nice way to print tabular output in the terminal? (like common lisp's https://github.com/vindarel/cl-ansi-term)
I wrote a short blog post with my thoughts and experience on using Lisps and Scheme. Maybe you like it .
It covers #scheme (a minimalistic #lisp) and implicitly #emacs and my text editor (which i use to make and publish the website too with #orgmode). #guix is also a great killer app for #guile
🚀🤑 Once again, the magical #internet #money reaches an arbitrary number, and everyone pretends it's a stable investment rather than a glorified #pyramid #scheme. Meanwhile, #Congress gets ready for 'crypto #week,' because who wouldn't trust a bunch of tech-illiterate politicians to understand digital currencies? 🙄💸

Nice scheme of linux software.

Anyone seen an #ActivityPub library written in #Scheme (any flavor) or #Smalltalk ?
I'm not finding any sign of either.
[edit: thanks folks. Turns out @cwebber wrote one in Guile. https://gitlab.com/dustyweb/pubstrate ]

I learned #scheme back in 1994 or so, at Iowa State University, where the CS dept was very progressive and theory rich. Used it a bit after, and I remember when #guile got adopted as a GNU scripting language around 1998 or something. Now 25+ years later #GUIX is pretty sweet, and I see guile has a byte code compiler and templating JIT. So guile is dramatically more capable than something like bash. The future is now!
I was today years old when I realized the little joke about the naming of the Racket programming language:
Racket is a Scheme dialect. Both "scheme" and "racket" can refer to some kind of underhanded activity -- running a racket, racketeering, scheming, plotting, and so on.
Also, I found this: https://racket-lang.org/new-name.html

Calendar software should be way more programmable. A calendar should be a live program, not just a static dataset
Some people don’t celebrate easter, Christmas but do equinoxes and solstice, some don’t like birthdays but do like other anniversaries?
This should be programmable… incl things like when days begin and end … at noon, at midnight, at sunrise, at sunset, or whatever… and day & week numberings and which year it is
One should be able to replace the standard calendars with one your write yourself and have it be honoured system wide

Did you notice, that Guile moved to Codeberg?
