Hi! I'm new to this instance and to Mastodon in general, I'm here mostly talk to new people about my interests and theirs.
Some of my interests include:
#music #programming, #lisp (and #scheme) and #videogames.

Quite in depth. I am interested in talking here about what you think about my working-on-right-now directions. I decided that where-I-am-expecting-to-go-next is a different post.
In a nutshell, exploring my eev #markdown idiom, programs-using-each-other-like-people-do specifically #lisp image ⬌ emacs, and moving towards parenscript cl-kitten highly local community federation.

#peertube #LIVE #LISP Sharpsign Recursive Functions and their symbolic expressions and their computation by machine, Part 1 being read I promise I'm doing it right now.
I'll also try building and running my now-alpha #NicCLIM on an openbsd machine. Live dangerously.

No Edrx (https://anggtwu.net/) again, but I will read a note from him about his own type theory quest.
He speaks to some of the different meanings that appear when different people say the words type theory, as appear on the Mastodon recently!
Also, I got a lot of notes on obvious improvements and contex for my https://screwlisp.small-web.org/ articles so far which we can share and talk about!

#programming #engineering #emacs #gui #commonLisp #McCLIM #eev article https://screwlisp.small-web.org/emacs/eev-and-mcclim/
Minimal case of starting a #lisp #ecl image outside of emacs running common lisp interface manager, then connecting to the image from inside emacs - working with mcclim, closing emacs, the external lisp image with the gui created in emacs is still there. Party trick for days.
This is the necessary precedent for writing exciting using-clim-as-intended articles. Also I have an emacs folder now.
End of year thanks to everyone for #2025 and my big and extremely tightly constrained #plan for #2026 . #newYearsResolutions
Lots of thanks: Let me know if you are angry with how I credited you (or if I thought thanking you was implicit).

A quiet episode.

- and the climate ^
- Scientific computing, with style notes from @AmenZwa again
Revisiting Dungeon Crawler Carl, with descriptions (= light spoilers) and the relation of games and specialised knowledge
Access to knowledge, #lisp, #eev, nonmonotonic logic, testing, proofs and the delete problem.
I guess here is the #emacsconf youtube of my talk. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hy5i6Qb6fYE #commonLisp #softwareIndividuals
I segue from #emacs #orgmode to emacs #eev (hey, this talk in several hours is on eev by @eduardoochs https://emacsconf.org/2025/talks/modern/ )
Contrasting how complex and intractable org's tangle and weave are from a very literal eev style executable log. Then I present and run my #lisp software that when turned on pops an emacs lisp list every 30 seconds and does a sequence of actions therein.

My very brief retrospective on the 20th #ontolog summit, "Retrospectives" (my first.) https://ontologforum.com/index.php/OntologySummit2026. In particular the first speaker Janet Singer relates ontology to lisp's McCarthy, very apropos de Groot's book https://berksoft.ca/gol/
Their livestream is on youtube, talking begins at 5 minutes in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjCY3GbAgIs
Some #lisp ..?

Alright I better actually make the #lispyGopherClimate https://communitymedia.video/w/khYLxfJchsANRyB8tckwpn
Joined by @kentpitman - talking about generational divisions in computing ( #lisp ?), and I think the difficulties with getting paid for software in an open source world.
#pitman_errors progress report too? #python #programming sharpsign crosspollination
Loosely apropos my 2026 plan for us all to make reuseable #commonLisp condition fragments on #itchio for a year https://screwlisp.small-web.org/momentary/my-cl-2025-and-2026/

Published in 1986, "INTERLISP: The Language and Its Usage" by Stephen Kaisler was the only book on Interlisp printed by a publisher. It extensively covers the Interlisp language and environment with many code snippets and examples.

Worked 4 hours on the #lisp Cookbook today, from a reader's email full of details, and also for the new PDF rendering (done with the great #typst).
Just so you know ;) so you can star it and get us to 1k GitHub stars, and to recall you can send pull requests of typos and grammar fixes ;)

Now, back to clients work :S
The Autumn Lisp Game Jam has begun! I wish all jammers a happy hack! May all your parentheses be balanced.
Codeberg deployed Forgejo v13.0.0 which now detects Interlisp sources and handles them as text rather than binary files. We thank the developers who implemented the feature, @forgejo and @Codeberg for widening the choice of tools and code forges for hosting Interlisp software.
#lispyGopherClimate we are rolling around to that 8am-UTC Sunday-morning-in-Europe #lisp #peertube #live by request, covering #interlisp as well as #lispGameJam , #lisp generally. Live in a moment on https://toobnix.org/w/gXLXQqxf5MYg1NDF2Ua6oA as every week...!
Regardless of how ept or able I am feeling. #lisp on liberachat #irc please !

Ah, I didn't tell anyone but in two hours I am going to be talking to @alexshendi about the #lisp assembly happening in Germany on the #peertube #live. (9am Sunday CET) = 2.5 hours from now
channel : https://toobnix.org/a/screwtape/videos
EDIT: LIVE NOW SCROLL DOWN #C3
EDIT2: FINISHED NOW (#archive will come up when the 'live' stops being available). Remember to spread the word that Alex is looking for lisp around C3, happening late December and to talk directly to him if you have an idea

@FediVideo hey, I have two peertube accounts, @screwtape which has extended weekly archives of the years-running Tuesday-evening-in-the-Americas #lispyGopherClimate and @screwtape@toobnix.org which has the peertube live recordings of the Sunday-morning-in-europe-peertube-live edition.
Kind of #lisp (programming language) community news, also heavily featuring the longest running online virtual reality, lambdaMOO, the gopher and similar topics. Sort of retrocomputing but also bleeding edge.
Ryan Burnside entered the Autumn Lisp Game Jam 2025 with Interlisp Hungarian Rings, a puzzle he wrote in Interlisp. The project page provides instructions for downloading and playing the game:
[] at 8am 0UTC=9am CET, ( #commonLisp 's) @kentpitman is going to give a live video #demo of his lisp-style error handling in #python . At this #peertube #live link:
Archive will be up here tomorrow!
We also expect to talk about the #slime swanky python #emacsconf talk: https://emacsconf.org/2025/talks/swanky/ whose author should be on the Tuesday-night-in-the-Americas show this week.
If you have #mastoQuestions please leave them here #AMA (on topic), and I guess #lisp on #irc live. #programming

I wrote a followup #article about #lisp 's position in the #programming language #TIOBE rankings top 25 for 2025 including notes from the article's thread.
https://screwlisp.small-web.org/momentary/further-arguments-on-tiobe-lisp/
where I give examples of possibly (not) including historic languages in the list, #scheme viewed as a middle-aged lisp,
speculation about Visual Basic '98 as another completely-stable and reliably supported similarly-to-lisp target,
examples of how the ANSI standardised language still evolves.
