nij: this may be an interesting exercise in learning but you do not have to care about it and it will not help you in any short-term goal.
18:07:36
nij
Xach: Thanks, I'm aware that this is something that's much harder comparing to my ability/experience. I will treat that as a learning experience. No hurry indeed.

On the other hand (and again I might be naive), it doesn't seem too far to get tls working in CL. It's not native, but if that repo works.. it works, at least for sbcl.

It's ~360 lines so I don't expect it to be terribly hard for other implementations either.
18:09:50
Xach
it is not too hard to get it working on one implementation on one operating system distribution. it is much harder to make it work across many implementations and operating system distributions.

it is not bad (nor good); you'll have some fun when you'll learn that you can redefine functions in a fly

common lisp ecosystem is smaller; alas community support and documentation resources (compared to "popular" web dev frameworks in other languages)

Actually I am currently also evaluating alternatives for web app development. I would love to find someting like elixir phoenix liveview in Lisp. Is there sth like this out there and I am just too dumb to find it?

haha yes, it may come as a weird question because I am learning common lisp and liking it a lot so far, but after having (been forced to) worked professionally with rails for years, I swore to myself to never do web with anything else than Go

Like you can't believe how shameful I feel when I see those app struggling to server 2 req/s running with a full cpu core at its disposal....
19:29:35
nature
jackdaniel: spent weeks investiguating those perf issue, conclusion => template rendering is slow af...
19:31:22
nature
So yes, serving hello world surely goes well with rails, but when you start to have complex templates and using the full MVC crap it kills your cpu
19:38:43
nature
Thanks, yeah I'll probably try hunchentoot then, I am more scared of those 2 req/s eating 100% cpu than getting 30k req/s vs 9999k req/s

I took a stab at writing my own basic HTTP server, seems to me its quite hard to make them fast
19:40:26
Josh_2
well when you use something like spinneret, you don't write any HTML, you write normal CL and its converted into html
19:44:47
Josh_2
nature: here is an example project where I heavily lean on CLOS to generate HTML and CSS https://github.com/K1D77A/cl-bloggy/tree/master/src
19:56:47
Josh_2
Well it would be to connect to a running Slynk server and just update the source in the image

flip214: if you do deterministic profiling, you must specify the functions or packages to instrument. for example, (clim.flamegraph.examples.recording:with-recording (:specifications '("ALEXANDRIA.0.DEV")) (sleep 10)) will trace all alexandria functions in all threads for 10 seconds
20:11:48
frgo
Josh_2: Actually, well - thanks for the pointers. We *do* have something, well, vaguely similar in Lisp.
20:15:13
scymtym
flip214: and in WITH-RECORDING change the SAMPLE-RATE to 1 if you don't want to skip any calls

hi - if I have a function A that returns multiple things through hte use of ``(values 1 2)'', and another function B that takes two arguments, is there a shortcut way to call function B with the results of A without using a ``multiple-value-bind'' to bind the results of A and then call B?
20:47:40

Multiple-value-call will help. Multiple-value-compose from Alexandria will make it even better.

CL-ASHOK: maybe C-c C-y ... it will call the current defun in the repl and allow you to enter any parameters ...

it's been a long time since I've looked under these rocks... is there anything like https://rstudio.github.io/reticulate/ for lisp? I think xof's stuff goes the other way and allows for SLIME to talk to R. I want R to talk to a lisp -- possibly via SWANK. Anything like that out there?

I don't really understand what you want, but there's a bunch of logging libraries for CL
