In the past, we exposed a problem with SBCL immobile space (is that what it is called), and we do generate a huge number of funcallable standard objects.

Like don't have the possibility to make executables in LispWorks with the "free" version. ^^

No, the executable I am talking about is a SICL executable file created by writing bytes to disk. What the Common Lisp implementation does not matter.

"How many layers of metacircularity are you on?" "Like zero dude" "You are like a Python implementation, watch this"

yes when i hear end game that comes to my mind too. yielding the infinity implementation gauntlet to rule the universe

nice :) I had also get used to that LAST returns a list rather than the element alone
12:42:16

I recall the book Land of Lisp did mention that exact use-case for LAST returning the last cons cell, funnily enough.

I might be weird, but I actually think "(setf (car (last list)) 3)" is clearer than last-elt as it forces you to think through the procedure in details. There are a few gotchas in that one.

you may open code most setf expansions too to better understand low-level operations

If something is EQ+, it has to be EQ too, right? i.e., if (EQL a b), or (EQUAL a b), or (EQUALP a b), it is also true that (EQ a b), isn't it?

how to make asdf automatically load files specified in (uiop:define-package ... (:use-reexport #:HERE ) for systems with :class :package-inferred-system ? it is not right to have to add an extra (:import-from #:HERE)
15:18:30

that code with duplication, works. If I remove the duplicate code (the :import-from form) , asdf won't load the files any more

I think one the :use-reexport ed file failed to compile and instead of telling me that it failed to compile it said 'that package doesn't exist' and only after adding :import-from it would tell me 'that file doesn't compile'

well, if you still have the failing case, you can look deeper.. as a rule giving up in debugging is bad..
15:43:58

it seems the failing case is gone for now, if it appears again I will continue investigating
