unlike any implementation of Clojure I'm aware of, both Smalltalk and Common Lisp implementations support handling an error or other exception by starting up a nested repl... I think that we've not taken the development of REPLs

Very good list, I look forward to diving into those that I've not had any exposure to. Without a doubt Kogge and Brodie will appear on my list one day.

This is an ongoing project so there are many in my personal library that need coverage. That said, _why’s guide is probably too well known for this list.

I can elaborate. I used to do a lot of C++ early in my career -- pre-Boost days. I recently explored the post-Boost landscape to see if there was something worth pursuing (for me) and decided that I wasn't satisfied with that as an opt

I'm glad that you find the joys of 18XX games through my list. I had a regular game group pre-pandemic and spent a lot of time with them. There's nothing like them in tabletop gaming. Your insight about Weird Studies is spot on. I
