The DO clause of LOOP has an implicit progn[1], no need to do it explicitly. Don't be clever with FLET/LABELS, 99% of the time you're doing it out of some vague "information hiding" principle. 99% of the time you end up making it a toplevel

others without the requirement to build a site can side-step the web and start with android. it's a cleaner model than the web that learned a lot from it. android xml files are far superior to anything css or javascipt.

I can vouch for its Lisp binding.

Loop and Format are only useful for getting work done, but they fall flat for waxing poetic on LISP beauty.

ITERATE is one of those tastefully designed macros, very intuitive to a LOOPer.

swig + libpcap should get you there for any mainstream language (assuming you're on a real OS.)

`gosh` is already the name of the Gauche Scheme interpreter. Just in case anyone gets a repl :-)

You can't also access an RDBMs from C without paying for Visual Studio Enterprise Edition, or using any of the myriad of Free compilers out there that are much better anyway, which everyone else uses.

Code please.

This has a lot of potential. Only problem I see is the pricing. You should be doing 4x what you currently have.

Erlang is the shitzness! Not weird at all, very palatable, and thankfully, different enough to be a new experience.

Tweets imply immediacy, crowd witness, etc. While blogs imply longer writing, research & fact-checking. Quoting a tweet is like quoting a dude in a crowd, but a bloger is someone doing the same thing as you. No one ever got caught in a

I thought Lippman's book was adequate. And if you're familiar with the implementation of various statically-typed object models (oxymoron?) then you can see a few ways suggest themselves. Depends on what you want to do with this knowledge.

Some manual C code can adequately explain what C++ does automatically . The difference is cost; you have to link against C code, for some platforms, what C++ provides for free on all platforms.

CLISP uses GNU Lightning in some superficial sense, but it's a compile-time option not normally built into release binaries.

I was a barista at Starbucks and I meant every word of my greetings. The 5 seconds you make eye contact with someone and say hi to them are vital for gathering your senses, and starting this interaction a new. If you didn't say "hi, how are

Is that a Questment! (Something that starts as a question and ends as a statement) George W was a master of it: he would start to say something controversial, then raise the intonation at the end.

If you just wanna see how a few library functions and system calls are used? yeah, just get APUE and dig into the simplest implementations you can find, which is often BSDish. I routinely gloss over comments when reading code anyway; the mo
