13:42:09Guest63jcowan: I thought CLOS classes had a bit more overhead than structures?
13:43:37jcowanIt depends on the implementation. If you make everything class-first as SICL does, then there is no advantage to keeping structs different.
15:43:57amirouche`I consider bootstrapping issues more philosophical... it is too far fetched to be interesting in the short / medium term, and even more so in industrial settings.
15:44:08amirouche`Tho, reproducibility is very important imo.
15:44:37dash[m]eventually, someone will be motivated to build a good computer system
15:44:55dash[m]having bootstrapping tools like that on hand will help with compatibility
