7:41:08 jackdaniel https://turtleware.eu/posts/Dynamic-Let.html new blog post about common lisp :)

9:13:06 Shinmera Bubblegumdrop: I also test in Windows VMs and actualy Windows hardware. But I deploy with Wine.

11:28:17 paulapatience Cool, I didn't know about progv

11:30:40 jackdaniel paulapatience: thanks, fixed and deployed

11:33:30 jackdaniel there's a gotcha on sbcl I've been pointed at by gilberth -- I've written a proof of concept code that goes around this limitation: https://turtleware.eu/static/paste/dynamic-let-sbcl.lisp

11:33:57 jackdaniel but I'm not sure whether I have energy to add addendum to the post immedietely, let's leave it as a silent pressure on sbcl devs to fix it ,)

11:41:25 beach jackdaniel: For some symbols you use typewriter font, for others upper case.

11:41:59 beach Er, For some symbols you use lower-case typewriter font, for others upper-case typwriter font.

11:55:47 jackdaniel oops, thanks, fixed

11:56:24 beach paulapatience: I am inclined to remove the comma in "it would be nice, if", but I don't know a rule for it.

12:08:39 paulapatience beach: jackdaniel: Yes, there should be no comma there.

12:12:29 jackdaniel fixed, thanks

12:17:54 paulapatience beach: I don't know if there is any rule for that beyond "it sounds better without", but my formal grammal knowledge is lacking, as I have mentioned before.

12:20:02 beach Fair enough.

12:28:45 beach A free program similar to Grammarly would be nice. I don't think it would be that hard to write, given that performance is not critical. There might be a lot of rules to add, but those could be added incrementally.

12:29:51 beach Such a program is somewhat different from a program for translation or "understanding", so one can't necessarily use existing grammars from, say, PAIP.

12:34:37 jackdaniel https://turtleware.eu/static/paste/dynamic-let.lisp (somewhat cleaned up implementation that caters to sbcl defects)

13:11:44 jackdaniel well, the sbcl-specific solution still has defects, so don't read too much into it :)

13:20:06 dlowe beach: paulapatience: the rule is "there's no comma in the <consequence> IF <condition> construction, only in the "IF <condition>, [THEN] <consequence>" construction

13:20:41 beach dlowe: Thank you!
