I assume it was mostly humor, albeit poorly timed humor. The lack of elaboration to the question shows that there wasn't much thought put into this idea IMO. While a majority of Americans use iPhones, there is still a significant porti

A minor update of macOS Monterey[1] removed /usr/bin/python, but /usr/bin/perl still exists. Xcode's Command Line Tools will install Python 3, but I do not count as being bundled by default with macOS. Unf

by koito17 4y ago
No, but Perl at the very least is available on the latest versions of Mac OS. Python is not. So as far as "being bundled with the latest OSes" goes, Perl beats Python. NOTE: I am (probably mistakenly) assuming that Perl is still b

While I see benefits of TypeScript's type system, I think the lack of a special compilation step is a big win for Perl, at least in the author's eyes. (Yes, I know Deno is a thing, but I'm not sure of the extent which the aut

Earlier in the day GitHub actions went down as soon as I had pushed some changes and wanted a deployment to run. Talk about bad timing. It's a bit strange seeing GitHub having problems again in such short time. But to be fair, GitHub&#

Thankfully SBCL is just an implementation and not the language ;) There are alternative implementations, like ECL, which is capable of transpiling to C and producing small binaries and dylibs. Then there are implementations like CCL, which

Your prompt definitely takes GPT-4 on the right path. Unfortunately, CLJS is still too niche (and/or the answer is buried too deeply in search results) that its suggested macro does not work. Here is the suggested code. (defmacro c

The cool thing about the CL community is how by simply joining #commonlisp on libera.chat, you are in the same room as a bunch of compiler designers and even people who were involved at one point in the CL specification itself. I have some

On Expert mode, I decided to ask it a simple question but in a niche language, to see how well it can scour the internet. How do I emit JS object literals in a ClojureScript macro? Instead I was given an answer to a completely unrela

Hi. First of all, thanks for the quick response, and more importantly, working on this cool idea! I see on the website that CLJS isn't supported; that's fine. But the NPM dependencies not being detected does intrigue me. I'm

Genius idea. I try to donate to open source software I've used for long time, especially if I cannot contribute any code back. This site seems to automate the process of finding out which dependencies of your software are accepting don

EDN at least provides date literals, UUID literals, and decimals. It also does not require commas to be littered everywhere. Unfortunately EDN is only really well-supported within Clojure. I'm not sure what is meant by "context pr

This reminds me it was only five months ago a client sent a bug report about our software's e-mail notifications having broken layout. Turns out they were still using Outlook 2010, which only implements HTML 2.1 or some ancient standar

I always M-x ielm every time I want to modify something in my Emacs or try out a new package before modifying my init.el. Such a useful tool even if elisp has limited debugging capabilities :)

I wish there was something elaborated for scripts that run on Node. I've been using nbb[1] for scripting, and although it all runs through Node.js, it is fast to start up and quick to prototype/debug scripts. The best part is in C

Yup. As far as I can tell, OpenAI is pricing at steep losses at right now. It makes me wonder what businesses and individuals will do once OpenAI runs out of money to subsidize everybody and massively increases their prices.

Can someone contrast this with the long existing lein-try or a setup like using Pomegranate with an injection in a Leiningen project so that you can add arbitrary dependencies to a live REPL?

As a Clojure programmer, I find it a bit unfortunate that most of this post, like many other posts demonstrating Clojure, tend to paint a rosey picture and never mention the realities one has to reconcile in a Clojure codebase. For instanc

The binaries are big because it's shipping a preprended lisp kernel together with the entire programming language in a heap image. It's also largely dependent on the Common Lisp implementation. SBCL is very inline happy and cons

Ah, the classic problem with benchmarking programming languages. There may be further optimizations you can do to the Rust code, likewise for Python. I do find it a bit hilarious we are "comparing" Python and Rust because really w

Off the top of my head, dtrace and dyld are gimped with SIP enabled, and you cannot modify your system volume for whatever reason (yes, that means "sudo mount -uw /" fails). You cannot use LD_PRELOAD if SIP is enabled, even o

I was first introduced to Linux with Ubuntu around 2009 - 2010. I used it up until 2014 or so, then toured my way around Windows and Mac OS. I'm currently on a Mac, but at a past job I had to boot straight into a Linux VM, and Fedora w
