puchacz, I never used LispWorks much. LispWorks 6 didn't support Unicode codepoints > 65535

I'm just becoming hip to how well docker works with Common Lisp. Say you have a lot of ASDF systems and you have a slowish compiler - just build everything in a docker container and ship it. Compiled asdf systems are all bundled up with it.

probably you can roll out something on basis of c-mera for C. otherwise maybe SWIG could help, design API in C and generate all bindings for all languages you want via SWIG
7:35:32
fourier
why limit yourself, there are tons of corner cases which were already solved in swig. and to prepare truly portable api better to start with C anyway I believe
7:36:27
fourier
but it would be awesome to have some generator in CL I must admit.. c-mera is a good step forward but to low-level imho

definitely, lots of corner cases, and supporting each language will be a huge pain for sure

admittedely, the domain I'm trying to solve is far simpler and would be something like what swagger provides
7:43:43
jmercouris
anyways, generating the classes, functions, etc for the API will still not be trivial, but at least easier than library APIs

would the correct term for 'ware such as XCVB be "kamikazeware", since it ultimately never went anywhere itself, but strengthened what remnained?

or perhaps, chickenware - last library standing eats the one that falls by the wayside.

Hi beautiful lisp community! Today I'm here for a career advice. Currently I'm making 669.97usd/month after taxes as a full time erlang programmer. And I'm starting to get sick and I can't pay for doctors, nothing terrible, i *believe* is just food deficiency. I would love to make 1k-1.5k/usd month working remotely, and i don't care how many hours or day i should work to get that.

What i want from you guys is some advice, What market should i focus in? Where can i find a better job? Is any real chance for a remote job for a normal programmer?

I happy to say my cl-application is somewhat stable now, but my local 64gb box with 32 jobs in parallel is using all my memory, will have to get something online

jackdaniel: I just stumbled upon the handler-case thing that you were talking about some time ago.

I don't want to reveal too much because that would spoil the surprise. But if you want to get spoiled, I talk about my plans (and show the development) on my Treehouse streams. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLkDl6Irujx9MtJPRRP5KBH40SGCenztPW
