#common-lisp
I know this is the Dynamic Language Experience but I really don't like that Common Lisp doesn't have a way to make a fixed set of enumerations (let alone tagged enums) and you instead just have to abuse keywords (different from normal programming language meaning) and lists and have to […]

im going really slow but im enjoying this "common lisp: a gentle introduction to symbolic computing" book. it's teaching me how to take notes again! i want my next big book to be the structure and interpretatoins of computer programs one. my goal is by the end of 2027 to have the knowledge and […]

Clozure CLはMacintosh Common Lispから派生した歴史あるCommon Lisp処理系。1.14で待望の64ビットArm版がリリースされ、Apple Silicon MacやArmサーバーのLinuxで動作するようになった。Clozure CLが最新のMacで動かないというのはやはり寂しい状況だったので、このリリースの意義は大きい。

Clozure CL 1.14 🎉

This is Clozure CL 1.14. The headline for this release is a port to 64-bit ARM. CCL now runs natively on Apple silicon Macs and 64-bit ARM Linux. Important: The heap image and fasl file versions h...

This guy is doing a lot of interesting work on hashing *numbers* in Common Lisp (are you in fact interested in random people doing random CL work, or should I stop bugging you about such?):

Are they a separate category from non-common lisp-into fascists?
October 26, 2026 at 3:59 AM
that's fascists who are into common lisp

An effort to explain all of the weird and wonderful things you can do with a JVM in Common Lisp....

like racket is cool and all but is still in my opinion degenerate wrt the old ways

i honestly somewhat program less specifically bcz i want CLOS everywhere but i don’t wanna slum it with common lisp libraries

this is part of why make my tool

so can do surgery on runtimes to CLOS them etc…
October 25, 2026 at 3:54 PM
meanwhile i was like WHY IS THIS NOT COMMON LISP WHY DO WE LIVE LIKE THIS

while my coworkers were just so fucking confused lmfao

pretty accurate description of what common lisp is like

i should've guessed! hickey himself was Common Lisp-er back in the day iirc
October 25, 2026 at 11:50 AM
afaik the only mainstream-ish languages with multimethods are Julia and Common Lisp.
October 25, 2026 at 11:08 AM
I should get back into Common Lisp
October 25, 2026 at 8:28 AM
the motivation for this is i want to write cross-platform common lisp application and the currently existing binding are either for libraries i don't like or have rather unix specific build processes. but rust builds everywhere sooooo
mmm i should learn how to use unsafe rust
