Did you reach out to me when you were using mocl? Surprised to hear this. AFAIK most users get up and running w/o much trouble.

Sorry if the documentation is lacking; you can put anything you want in an attribute. Defattributes is simply a convenience macro that defines validation functions (as well as row getter functions) that you can use if you want, or not. Gene

Non-lispers don't always realize that more parens can actually be a feature :)

LambdaLite creator here. I just wanted to point out, in case it is not clear, that LambdaLite doesn't really introduce a new query language per se. The syntax is just "write any Lisp code you want" because actual Lisp closure

If they're base-10 floats, they have all the same issues base-2 floats have Nitpick: although base 10 floats have similar issues related to being of limited precision, they are superior to base 2 floats in the aspect of representing

Wu-Decimal uses exact rationals (they aren't base 10 floats). Division works according to normal Lisp semantics, since the CL ratio type is used for arithmetic. Let's say you divide something by 3 and now you have infinitely repea

Since we're on the subject of floating-point numbers in Lisp/Scheme: https://wukix.com/lisp-decimals This uses the Lisp ratio type in place of floats, to avoid the usual float issues. ntoronto, any thoughts?

Thanks! I hope there is another BALisp meetup soon. The recent Parallac thing was cool, although it clearly needed more Lisp :)

I am the founder a developer tools startup and I've thought a lot about the future of programming. To be honest, the developer tools market is extremely competitive ("everything must be free") and it is not for the faint of h

Nitpick: It's not licensing for a language, it's licensing for a specific tool. Common Lisp itself is not proprietary (having a standard) and code can be portable across implementations. To answer your question, I would say that t

the language is so fundamentally good -- Mature, robust, standarized, performant, compiled, gradually-typed -- that it is worth sticking with it, it is worth working to expand its ecosystem This is why I created https://wukix.c

For starters, objecting to the anti-criminality clauses seems paranoid. Granted, if you're a human rights organization under a hostile government, maybe you need to worry about this. But otherwise, what is the problem? Does one really

As a developer of commercial software, this strikes me as a lot of paranoia, although I do agree with one or two points. These types of agreements have to be somewhat broadly written so that if someone acts like a jerk and e.g. resells Dato

mocl derives from some past academic work, although not ECL. In spite of this, it is very much a new and unique implementation, and I have sunk years of dev time into making it a reality. I may or may not be in the office Sunday... feel fre

It's true that CL's huge feature set promotes implementation bloat, but that doesn't completely rule out having a compact implementation. In fact, mocl can run with only a few megabytes of memory, and has options to control t

You may want to check out the sample code on our Github, https://github.com/Wukix , which wasn't available at launch. Working on adding more. Appreciate the feedback!

Personal just means you are buying it with your own funds and not being reimbursed by a company. You are free to make paid apps with it. I'll work on language to clarify. Thanks for pointing out the contradiction there. We may be going

For what it's worth I just put up some code so you can see better how it works.

"there is going to be libraries for approximately nothing" You do realize this runs Common Lisp, right? There are plenty of Common Lisp libraries.
