Do you have starlisp running?
- monocasa 3y agoI haven't attempted to yet. Most of my efforts have focused on running from the Cstar environment running on a sun4 frontend since those binaries and headers are a bit more conducive to reverse engineering with modern tooling like ghidra. Or at least that's what fits my RE skill set better. That being said I have a couple starlisp images for sun4 that should eventually run given the layer at which I'm targeting for the emulator. It's a.goal.to get them running, but hasn't reached the top of the priority queue yet. FWIW, tensorflow/pytorch are remarkably close to the vague vibe of starlisp.
- jshaqaw 3y agoI agree on the “vibe” there. In the mid-90s when I was in high school I got access to a cm-2 to figure out how to transform sparse matrices using genetic algorithms on that massively parallel architecture. Good times!
- pjmlp 3y agoGiven Peter Norvig opinion on Python vs Lisp, and the way Python has been taken up in AI/ML stuff, in a way it is a kind of Lisp's revenge. If only Python had the same machine code generation capabilities as Lisp based languages (in the reference implementation).
