Hi Lispateers! I'm seeing that there's a new version of ASDF out. Yay! I'm also seeing that the standard version bundled with SBCL as rather old.
23:14:46
Shinmera
And the best way is the same as everywhere else. Load the asdf.lisp before the implementation version is loaded.

Shinmera: thanks for the info! I was under the impression that SBCL master lagged more than that. Misinformation on my part.
23:18:23
Shinmera
SBCL is somewhat conservative with ASDF upgrades, because ASDF upgrades also tend to break things.

Bike: Interesting paper, I'll ask about people about it and on the designs some more.

Not sure though butt makes sense to me since paper says a some processor is like >200,000$

i feel like if you are moving an object from here to space in the first place, computer costs are probably not the biggest cost

For a bit closer to lisp now, I've been reading the paper on the Deep Space 1 Remote Agent

pjb: Oh yeah dunno if you got the msg turns out it was the Harlequin that ran on it
23:24:29

Which kinda surprised me a bit since I figured generally it's 1 lisp image etc. but maybe I interpreted it wrong
23:28:14

Errr let me see if I can find paper again it's availble on google might be interesting to read for peeple here

Oh the other thing I did look at was some powerpoint I found by someone who worked at it I think http://www.flownet.com/ron/RAX2.pdf

Ugh, need rest zzz but got to finish stuff, I'll look into and think about things more later bye bye

Hey guys, I'm very new at this, and I'm not sure where to start from. I would like to write a cli tool in lisp (common lisp, probably I'll be using sbcl if that matters) to search results in urban dictionary. After some search I came across this: https://github.com/zdict/zdict/wiki/Urban-dictionary-API-documentation . Using curl and piping the output to jq (json parser) this gives me a pretty-printed json
0:49:55
dwts
output. How would I be able to mimic the curl part in lisp? Which libraries should I be looking at? any ideas?
0:50:39
dwts
once I get that curl part in lisp I suppose I should be searching for a json parser in lisp as well

Bike: I'm confused, I'm not sure if hunchentoot is what I'm seeking for. Isn't hunchentoot a webserver say, like nginx or apache?

Speaking of hunchentoot, now my SSL cert checking application is starting to be in pretty usable shape: https://bitbucket.org/turkja/mitmcheck

Theoretical question: if i ever wanted to distribute this thing to, let's say windows users, how realistic that would be?

Guest34211: thanks.. now looking at it, i think it's a good example of why Lisp never conquered the world :) I mean for people who write Lisp programs, setup like that is natural, but for others... not so much :D
3:27:05
aeth
turkja: If C never conquered the world, people would point to its flaws like lack of any safety and the terribly complex way to build things.
3:34:47
turkja
aeth: yeah, you are correct.. historically speaking, i see no reason why lisp is in such a marigin, but as of now, deployment is not very easy.

jmercouris: some was making a valid not in reddit/lisp: FF57 doesn't anymore have api's needed to run for example Conkeror (afaik - tested it, crash and burn), there definitely is a market for your browser project

emaczen: It is not bound to anything. The meaning of T as a stream depends on the context.

dmiles: SICL doesn't do well at all on ANSI tests, for the simple reason that SICL doesn't exist yet.

I've loaded the library with quicklisp changed into it's package but the examples aren't working
