I can't think of one, but nginx has worked fine for me. Is there anything specific you need from it?

flip214: then that would be the answer to the earlier query on how to reverse proxy in CL
9:45:50
flip214
unless there is some specific rewriting to do, I'd go for a standard product, though (nginx, apache, haproxy, etc.). even casual text changes (via regexes) can be done in apache, for example.

yeah nginx is a very easy to use reverse proxy imo (well since I know how to use it, hence its easy to use :D)

lisp123_: depending on the answer time of the http services "behind" the proxy you might have quite a lot of simultaneous active http connections.

HT by default creates threads; quux-ht uses a thread pool; perhaps you should take a look at tpd2 or so, to have a bounded number of threads for an (more or less) unbounded number of connections.

flip214: Good to know :) I was just answering the earlier question on the chat, I've personally moved away from web dev for the foreseeable future

perhaps I will come back in the future, after all everything commercial is a SaaS these days

Can someone recommand a noob friendly CL implementation that comes with an editor, works with windows and macos, and that allows the user to start playing with the repl after a quick download?

I remember there's one that satisfies all of these requirements.. but I couldn't find its name..

nij-: People like Portacle, but it's not an implementation. Just a bundling of an implementation and other things.

Unfortunately macOS' release of Portacle is pretty busted, and I don't have the time... or, rather, the patience and energy to play catch-up with Apples BS.
16:13:36
Shinmera
If there's any other poor souls willing to sacrifice themselves to do the work though, by all means, PRs are open.
16:24:55

beach: In my case it's because other people that do use Apple devices heckle me about it

* debugging an application that works correctly in serial mode but gives inconsistent results in parallel mode (race problems, etc) is a different kind of hell

Shinmera: if Portacle is just a bunch of implementations, why wouldn't it do well on macos?
17:15:52
Shinmera
First fo all, that's being very dismissive of all the work that had to be done, and second the reason is because apple wants you to distribute stuff solely through the app store and makes everything else a huge pain in the ass to force your hand.

OSX used to be pretty nice platform for the software distribution, shame that it ends this way

Turns out when companies are doing well they start fucking everyone over. Who knew???
17:20:27

Sigh* Do you think doing that favors the those who will never learn any bit of programming?
17:21:00
Shinmera
Don't worry, I'm currently bleeding through all of my savings and probably will end up bankrupt within the next year, so me not doing well is virtually guaranteed :)
