Cool I really have enjoyed playing around with Idio. Most specifying I really love the Lisp influence you have in Idio!

Have you been on TikTok? All I see on it are large breasted women, NASA stuff and dog rescues. I do wonder if there’s any lobbying going on from Facebook or Google to help bolster their Reels and Shorts products, both of which seem to be ga

Can this be used as an interactive shell?

I read it as probably sarcasm, but no, in practice conservative state governments like the one in Texas like to micromanage your life (who to love, what you do with your body etc.)

That was indeed where many of my teenage hours went - hacking out game experiments in DJGPP and Allegro on our family’s 486. It was also my intro to Emacs which stayed with me for decades afterwards.

That was my first thought. Not FTX related, but I just got another email from Coinbase reassuring me that they’re not gonna use customer funds without permission. I have in the past moved my shit out of Coinbase wallets because of doubts ab

There’s so much code marked “unsafe” in there…

I think you must be unfamiliar with job control, but I could be wrong. How do you Ctrl+Z a foreground job, maybe several, and then switch between them. All of what “powershell” provides depends on knowing you want to background something ah

I am a late comer to TikTok (was curious after a recently reported news article on the potential booting/sale of TikTok back in the Trump days). All it shows me is large breasted women and “crystal polishers” (which I never knew was a

In the past, I've toured these alternate, non-POSIX shells like Nushell. A lot of them (e.g. Powershell, Elvish) don't provide job control. I looked into how job control works and it's kind of a bother, so I see why they migh

An IEEE service that would be actually useful.

It’s also super easy to integrate with non-POSIX shells, if you’re into that kind of thing.

Lisp user here, I couldn’t quiet tell from all the Zig syntax, but is “comptime” here like having the whole language available to you to do whatever you like at at compile time like in Common Lisp?

I think this might work great from a celestial body with no atmosphere, but on Earth this company has bullshit written all over it imo

It’s got parsers for several versions of Python iirc. I’ve used it for a while, but somehow it feels slower than even bash.

Check out F83 Forth in DOS. It’s a goddamn masterpiece.

That was my take away from "lock-free" talks, as well as needing a deep understanding of the machine's memory model and instruction set.

Low performer here. This is absolutely true. I cannot figure out how I was not let go even a year ago so asked the Director about it in 1:1 and she flat out said they can’t hire so it doesn’t matter.
