I don't either. I tried getting into it (and recently Satisfactory) and I find it boring.

Nice, just this week I started developing a roguelike in Python, but Lisp might be cool as well.

> I hope you enjoyed Hofstadter's idiosyncratic tour of Lisp. You can find more like this re-printed in his book Metamagical Themas. This seems like an interesting book.

I'm surprised at how useful the latest openai model is for me when it comes to either learn a python library or a new language, such as cl, for example.

Except for people who simply don't have 60€ a month easily, so they're left out. Also, it will absolutely not stay at 60€, it will become more expensive each year until the local tickets are cheaper again - defeating the whole pur

After the next elections, I fully expect it (and cannabis) to be reversed by the CDU, who will win without a doubt.

Is there a simple, self-hosted blog that supports images, Latex, code highlighting, etc., that is easy to setup and configure? I don't want to rely on someones service for my content.

The article is gone for me.

Please do continue to write about Lisp.

It would be far more consistent than the Scala in the example, if everyone used SBCL with the same implementation, right?

> I wouldn't say reuse of functionality is a core aspect of OO, That's what was taught to me in computer science at university, along with Java (sadly).

In my opinion, if it gets interesting projects funded I'm all for it. Otherwise, who knows if this language might get the support to thrive.

I'd say a Lisp and books like little Schemer, etc. are a perfect way to study programming and computer science. Later on you could have a look at SICP (Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs) which also uses Scheme, but is m

Does it support latex formula and code highlighting? There are some things I absolutely need in a blog, and I can't seem to find a simple one that supports everything.

Yes.

... because it's a lisp?

Which is of course complete nonsense and just not the case in practice.

> Does anyone know what is special about 30 instead of 40? It's special because that's not 40 hours. More free time.

That looks interesting, I've never heard of it. I'm definitely looking forward to reviews.

Supernote was the alternative to the RM2, but the RM2 was bought by my workplace - I would have preferred the Supernote due to exactly these features. It's not just a fancy college block. I think a new version of the A5 is coming out t

I'm only waiting for the s10+ to be released, so that I can maybe get a discount on the s9+ (currently ~850€). Yeah, the pen is included, which is great compared to the iPad. Can you recommend apps for note taking? There's a paper

by dunefox 2y ago
I love paper, but it's difficult for me to organise the notes properly, I have no search function, screenshots, links, endless canvas, etc. I already own a Remarkable 2 but I really don't like it - it's not much more than an

It comes from experience. I had several professors who did not even release the script for a course, much less the problems and never solutions - everything had to be written down by hand by students while you were supposed to listen, under

In the "real world" all assignments I had had answers. To quote a mathematics professor, "how else could I expect you to understand the material on your own, outside of my lecture".
