The sad thing is, having a mandatory high school level statistics & probability class alone is not enough, you'll also need a good curriculum and a competent teacher to go along with it. Otherwise, it wouldn't work: a bad curr

I have no idea why that reply got downvoted as well. It is essentially how I installed Firefox on my Debian stable laptop , and it has been working great as far.

pgloader [0] is one example. Interestingly, it was originally written in Python, but the author decided to rewrite the entire thing in Common Lisp due mainly to Python's poor performance and the lack of native thread support. The resul

Thank you for your hard work. I've just upgraded from Jessie to Stretch on my main laptop and the process is silky smooth. Even though I only started using Debian with Jessie (was using Ubuntu and Arch before that), I've come to l

Maybe you could warm up by releasing a new, updated edition of Practical Common Lisp? ;)

Thanks for the suggestion. I'm not the developers of Roswell, but I'll make a pull request to try and improve the readme.

Yeah, that paragraph is a bit misleading (and the whole readme could use some more love). Roswell is basically a tool that help you quickly setup a Lisp development environment. You can think of it as Ruby Version Manager (RVM) for Common L

There aren't that many Lisp implementations, especially those that are considered to be mature and ready for production. For Common Lisp, the open source ones are SBCL and Clozure CL, and the proprietary ones are Allegro CL and LispWor

Common Lisp _IS_ the consolidation of various Lisp dialects that you've asked about. Back in the 70s and 80s there are numerous Lisp dialects (way, _way_ more then there are today, since each dialects has their own sub-dialect and so f

That's not the case at all. The core of Racket, its syntax and basic constructs, is basically the small and elegant Scheme we all known and love. What set Racket apart is all of the additional features that was built around that tiny c
