The work on r7rs-large is tough, but I hope it will go through this hard times.
The explanation on what is happenning with #scheme language r7rs standard at the moment: The work on r7rs-large is tough, but I hope it will go through this hard times. Found a nice talk on concurrency. It has a very brief comparison of different concurrency models, like Erlang's Actors, Hoare's CSP, Go's goroutines, Clojure's core.async, Concurrent ML (aka Fibers in Guile). Primary focus on Concurrent ML (but examples are in Scheme with type annotations ><). #go #golang #clojure #lisp #guile #scheme #ocaml #concurrency #erlang

@abcdw Ah, from Michael Sperber. I think I ran across his name for the first time in the vicinity of the scsh project - which I still cherish highly π Thanks for the link - it is on my to view list now! Some news on the R7RS-large: John Cowan says that he is exhausted by the efforts to reach agreement among many players and can't serve as Chair of the project anymore. IDK, how it will affect the R7RS, but I'm glad that he listens to his feelings and takes care of himself. Many thanks to him for his great work. Take care. https://groups.google.com/g/scheme-reports-wg2/c/xGd0_eeKmGI/m/q-xM5fbuAQAJ @abcdw This is very helpful. I really struggled to get it right the first time for Mullvad VPN last year. @abcdw I read this course a few years ago, its really great. OCaml is a good balance of safety and pragmatism Through my life I have visited around 20 countries and I dream someday to write down my trips somewhere. One of the tools I found for this matter is this nice FOSS web frontend on top of OpenStreetMaps: It doesn't mean I will go crafting some travel blog now, I just like to share cool FLOSS projects and technologies. Discussing privacy, ethics and knowing about and controlling what programs does I was told a few times in my life that there is no much difference between Open Source and Proprietary Software. > Because linux, chromium, jdk is so complicated that nobody can comprehend them and this implies that there are a lot of backdoors, telemetry, CVEs(?) or whatever malicious or potentially dangerous functionality in this software as well. [1/2] While it make some (only partial!) sense, it seems there is a straw man fallacy (it's not exactly my original statement) and probably a bunch of data and researches defeating even this new point. I can remember at least this one: https://www.theverge.com/2021/4/30/22410164/linux-kernel-university-of-minnesota-banned-open-source If you remember other good arguments, researches or just data, please share. [2/2] How memory get allocated and where variables are stored in Guile:

@abcdw The one I don't use is notmutch and it was because I didn't take the time to learn but now you posted this I got interest on it. One of the most popular distributions based on GNU Guix turned 3000 commits, wow! I like articles that were written more than 10 years ago, but are still relevant. This is true ever green content. A quick dive into Y combinators and how to make a recursion without referencing a function by its name. That was long but interesting. I've always shunned clojure, because watching from the shores of common lisp land it seemed toyish with it's awkward deviation from usual lisp syntax while the java connotation left me with a sinking feeling I was right about to trip and fall into a sea of patterns, factories and xml. No doubt you can build cool stuff with it though. It's like smalltalk seaside and lisp had a baby really. Next generation stuff. A package for controlling browser tabs, history, bookmarks from Emacs. https://git.sr.ht/~ngraves/ibrowse.el Also we did a small fix related to notifications in Emacs upstream. Now notification icon can be provided by its name according to Icon Naming Specification, not the path. https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/commit/?id=42a911c61e67caa807750cd40887b729f09aaf52 RISC-V Guix CI and substitute server by @Z572: Sometimes I want to give up on my FOSS journey and find a "real" job. It maybe demotivating to read, but it's how I feel sometimes. More details on content-addressable nix store. Need to revisit it someday and dive in. https://github.com/NixOS/rfcs/blob/master/rfcs/0133-git-hashing.md |
