   Then tell your banks they have to support the PinePhone or they'll lose you as a customer. The PinePhone folks don't have access to the source code of whatever interface your banks provide on Android/iOS, so they can't d

   CL is pretty multi-paradigm. To give the boring 'double all numbers in a list' example: (defun double-numbers (numbers) "Doubles a list of NUMBERS. Docstring and type declarations are optional." (declare (t

   I used Vim for 5 years before I eventually made the switch to Emacs. The reason I switched was because I needed an alternative to stop my hands from hurting all the time. Because having to slam every key at full force (because a missed inpu

   Some programs are poorly behaved (Wayfire used to be this way) and directly read keycodes rather than keysyms.

   For future reference, on HN you can format code snippets by indenting it (that is, to say, indenting every line) by two spaces: # Copy-Paste re-implementation for Mac Keyboard set $mod Mod4 bindsym --to-code $mod+z exec wtype -P XF8

   In CL you can't declare, for example, a proper-list-of type, which is to say a type which accepts a second type and represents a proper list containing only members of that second type. (deftype Proper-List-Of (subtype) `(or Nu

    Wayland is more secure, though accessibility suffers, which is a really difficult trade-off to make. If that Wayland AwesomeWM counterpart reaches 1.0.0 and wlroots a11y support improves then I'll be able to say Wayland without needing

    One of the reasons why I use Lisp is because the syntax helps me keep my mind organised. C-style syntax is just too chaotic for me to handle.

    I had a salad with buffalo mozzarella once and it was awful. Made me think the restaurant had an anti-vegetarian agenda (which probably is true, considering I'm in Belgium).

    As a Dvorak typist and Emacs user (repented from using Vim in the past), when I need to use a vi-like I just use the standard key bindings. Nothing good comes from rebinding keys in my opinion. But the way my brain works is by remembering t

    Photorealism is a bad idea if your movement engine isn't good enough to handle the character walking around on uneven terrain. For racing games or flight simulators or such it is less of a problem, but seeing a regular person being abs
