In the last few days I made some substantial advancements in my understanding of the so called continuations in Guile

Continuations have been elusive for years

FIRST @neetx suggested me this course (that can be interesting for more scheme features) and particularly this lecture about the continuations passing style

In this course a version of map is shown written in continuation passing style

I didn't understand it so I followed the SICP advice for when you don't understand a piece of code

I made the substitutions of the labda calculus by hand

So the lecture is here
youtube.com/watch?v=_kCa9heo83

and my work with the manual substitutions is here

gitlab.com/-/snippets/2189794

BUT the course doesn't illustrate the relationship between cps and the usage of call/cc

So I found another video where an example of usage of call/cc is shown for implementing a cooperative concurrency system

This one

youtube.com/watch?v=Ju3KKu_mth

I didn't watch it all yet but the example is very effective and made me do a real breakthrough in understanding

Why din't I do this investigation earlier ?

Because I was discouraged

Thank you again @neetx

Why nobody ever mention to me the existence of org-use-speed-commands nor speed keys in general? They're fantastic!

@newt I have a Slimbook with an AMD Ryzen CPU/GPU, so the only way to have a proper support for a dual monitor is to use Gnome Wayland... and I'm a KDE fanboy... 😢

I know that Uncle Bob is not everybody's darling anymore these days and rightfully so, but he's written a nice blog post on using Clojure spec to meet his needs for types: blog.cleancoder.com/uncle-bob/

@juliobiason beware, loss of smell and taste are not in the top five symptoms anymore with the delta variant.
I suggest a test to be sure: it's fast, painless and can be a life saver.

I love modal editing and I tried hard, but there's no way I can use evil-mode on Emacs... I feel dirty to use a mix of keybinding, vim/emacs.

Of course, I can use Spacemacs/Doom Emacs, but then again I lose the possibility of a tailor-made configuration...

@pureevil well, I just need a snippet of code, not really a emacs distribution... 😅

Has anyone a good custom configuration of + evil-mode + smartparens/paredit to share?

Thanks

I use acme.sh which takes care of (almost) everything: github.com/acmesh-official/acm
