johnjay: The entire system should be possible to build using any ANSI-conforming Common Lisp implementation plus the "Closer MOP" library.

any good RNG libraries that take an integer seed, so I can persist the seed to a file?

markasoftware, if you only want to save and restore it, then you may simply print a random-state and read it back.

though I don't know a single pair of implementations whose random states are interexchangeable

phoe: When do you plan to schedule the next online Lisp meeting? I prefer Wednesday to Monday, but if push comes to shove, Monday works as well.

beach: I have an unexpected possible collision since one person that I didn't expect to reply to my mail replied sooner than I thought.

phoe
And now I need to figure out whether we want to accomodate both and have a 2.5h+ long meeting or whether we want to split that
12:39:54
phoe
And I'm partial towards the other approach, which means that one of them will happen e.g. a week later

I don't understand the failure in http://report.quicklisp.org/2020-09-04/failure-report/climacs.html#climacs at all

Xach: i ran into that by accident yesterday. i believe this is stale/broken code in climacs which McCLIM now detects
14:41:50

We really should get Second Climacs up and running. *sigh* so much to do, so little time.

jackdaniel: i think LISP-STRING used to be defined as a presentation type but was removed at some point. there are two or three other instances
14:51:01
jackdaniel
it defined commands specialized on presentation types, but the symbols were not imported
14:51:17
jackdaniel
so it was trying to define things on symbols which were not designating presentations

apparently (uiop:define-package #:foo (:import-from #:ajhasdjhas/asdjhasdjas)) where the import-from package does not exist, does not signal an error :/
15:03:34
_death
since I use package-inferred-systems it actually should've loaded the appropriate system, but it didn't.. quickloading it worked.. so I'd say something's fishy
15:04:56
_death
it did load another system with a very similar name.. a/b/c/foo loaded and a/b/c/bar was not.. very strange

Trying to decide on a parser generator library...I've tried esrap, I like the API, but the benchmarks on the MaxPC blog say it's significantly inefficient; MaxPC is AGPL; for some indescribable reason I find smug's API and documentation impenetrable 😔

oh, I screwed up the :import-from.. had (:import-from :package1 :package2) instead of two :import-from clauses
