The ELS2021 programme is out! I am VERY excited about

⭐​ Nada Amin's keynote
"Staged Relational Interpreters: Running Backwards, Faster" ⭐​​

including logic programming, miniKanren, compilers from interpreters, and only good stuff!
🤩​

Excerpt from the abstract:

> Bringing multi-stage programming to relational programming, we derive a relational compiler from the relational interpreter.

🚀​

Every now and then I bust out a Lisp interpreter and poke at it for a few hours, and think about how much less software would suck if it had gotten popular instead of C. Lisp may be the most beautiful written language of any kind, and as an industry we’re stuck in a loop constantly trying to reinvent it, badly.

Just finished a full #Emacs #rmail article today (something I wanted to write since I first created the blog)!

I finally feel like I've given rmail enough attention.

Thanks for the chat!

I woke up early, got bored, hyperfocused and wrote a graphical utility for calculating bidding values of hands for #skat in one sitting. Only a bit over 500 lines of #Racket. Give it a try here: https://github.com/erkin/skat-bidder

ELS2021 online is announced and the call for papers is out. Looking forward to it!! 🤩​

Pixelfed will be a year old in a few days.

I'm a high school dropout that has never taken any CS or computer classes.

Web development is just a hobby of mine, I work in the auto industry.

I'm so proud of this project, I never would have imagined that I could make something like this.

Thank you for helping me realize credentialism isn't so important as you think. ❤️

Kandria, a 2D hack&slash platformer written in Common Lisp, is now on Steam!

Are you a #Ruby programmer and/or know a bit about Mastodon's export? The instance I'm on, functional.cafe, plans to move to #Pleroma, but the only migration tool doesn't support #Mastodon 3.0 :( We're running Glitch v3.2.0+glitch.

Here's the issue: https://gitlab.com/soapbox-pub/migrator/-/issues/8

@mdallastella is the instance admin, he'll probably be able to answer further questions.

Can anyone help?
