13:00:59 dim basically I'm makeing a bundle where I want to deal with what's in PWD, not what's in QL

15:37:52 ealfonso` does anyone have any experience with websockets on CL? I've heard about hunchensockets and clws. any recommendation between the two?
15:43:47 loke The implementation is here:
15:44:57 ealfonso` loke thanks. I've heard that hunchensocket "is not recommended for production use" do you know why someone might think this?
15:46:25 loke I don't know if there is an issue with lots of connections though, I've only tested with a few hundred on a single process.
15:49:20 loke But it was running off a laptop and I wasn't able to saturate the connections. But the system worked.
16:09:46 Xach Different things to different people and some are less flexible about needs and context.
16:24:39 drmeister What are the best resources for teaching a couple of undergraduates with little to no programming experience Common Lisp?
16:26:28 drmeister They are committed for the summer - they already have a working Common Lisp environment (Cando/Clasp in a jupyter notebook). Emacs is being installed today.
16:26:53 Xach drmeister: I like Practical Common Lisp and Paradigms of AI Programming very much. The latter is dense but rewarding.
16:27:43 drmeister We've started with Practical Common Lisp and we have a copy of Land of Lisp - we have found a couple of web tutorials and we are running a boot camp.
16:31:01 Josh_2 When I was a nub I found PCL too hard, but Gentle introduction to symbolic computation was perfect when I had no programming experience
16:33:49 sjl I also recommend Gentle first, then Practical, then go make things for a while, then maybe PAIP or CLR
16:34:21 ealfonso` I never read any Common Lisp book. I started with emacs lisp and the emacs lisp manual, which is very user and beginer friendly. It wasn't hard to transition to CL. I may still be a noob though
16:34:52 Xach ealfonso`: i think it would be helpful to read common lisp books and code in that case.
16:35:14 sjl also throw "watch the SICP lectures" somewhere in there. not strictly about CL, but still really helpful
16:37:51 antoszka From what I know now, I'd recommend starting with PAIP. Then using PCL (and Edi's excellent recipes) as a *practical* guide/reference.
16:38:44 antoszka Scheme related stuff (PAIP lectures, * Schemer books) is good, too, but doesn't pertain to Common Lisp that much.
16:39:20 Xach I think it can be helpful to learn about new ways of thinking about problems and solutions
16:40:46 jmercouris it's not challenging to learn IRC, if they can't learn it, they won't have much luck with CL
16:53:11 ealfonso` Xach what if you look at a random sample of my code and tell me how bad you think it is and whether I still need to read common lisp books??
I loved this. A lot.
Which is saying something because I don’t usually like anything to do with personality tests!
As a young girl (a young HOMESCHOOLED girl) I took more tests than should be legally allowed. And came up with one glaring conclusion: I’m a freak.
I don’t match anything. The closest was a Lion but I have so many strong traits from the others that even that didn’t fit well.
At college they did this great big scientific something or other test and I was the only one that my teacher ever had come back with a “unconfirmed” score.
*sigh*
Enjoy fitting a mold. Even if it means you eat your young. I, on the other hand, apparently give them mercy and THEN eat them.
HAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAA! Well, at least maybe you hydrated them before devouring.
I suppose a mold is good. At least we always know where we stand, huh?
I must be a lion – ess.
United we stand.
Me too. And I married one. Do you know what a group of lions is called?? A PRIDE! That’s because we’re undeniably the best kind of animal, hands down. Er, paws down.
Is humility on the lion list? No?? Hmmm.
Interesting, indeed. Because we lions are awesome. Humbly awesome, OBVIOUSLY.
I’m surprised you and I haven’t eaten each other given that we’re both lions. Further proof that being a lion (lioness) is da bomb, ya? We just eat other people in protection of one another.
Everybody needs a lion friend.
You are denying my sick grandson a glass of water? Don’t make me come over there!
In my defense, thirty minutes later he was up in the back yard pretneding to be Jason Mott throwing the game winning pitch.
VALIDATION!
You know they tell on you. I give them a few extra snacks to get the scoop on how mommy treats them!
Beaver with a touch of golden retriever. Really, I see a lot of otter in your man. I feel like I am speaking in riddles. The lion photo still rocks my world because it was taken through GLASS. God was good that day! Well, I reckon He is good everyday, but His glory was on display that day through the lens as I was trying to capture Aslan.
Ah…I knew you were a beaver, but I couldn’t tell if you were mixed with Golden or Otter. Good to know. And I do believe Lee’s secondary personality influence is that of the Otter.
That pictures rocks. Seriously. It’s amazing.
I’ve taken hundreds (ahem) of personality tests too, but this animal one has escaped me. I’m terrible at categorizing myself (and I’m sure that means something) but I’m clearly married to a golden retriever. Calm, easygoing….slightly indecisive. And everybody loves him, even my mom. (Maybe especially my mom!)
Hope Sloan feels better soon. I soooo get the water/medicine/Mom I’m dying! cycle (and the healing powers of baseball).
My mom loves my Golden Retriever, too. What’s not to love about a Golden Retriver, though, right?
I think we all married the same guy.
I too have eaten my young….more times than I care to count. I always peg out the personality tests with whatever the dominant category is and it used to kinda hurt my feelings!
.
I wept many a tear over 1 Peter 3:3-4 until God showed me what it really meant. So for numerous years now I have claimed Philippians 1:6 as my life line!!!!!
On a totally different note, my middle son got engaged yesterday to a PRECIOUS girl he has been dating for the past 6 years….since they were 15! We are beside ourselves!!!
CONGRATULATIONS! That is so exciting. Wedding planning! That is always a fun time. So happy for you, Karen.
Parallel lives much? says this Lion (born a Leo—roar) married to a retriever… with still sick cubs at home rotating their need for wound licking now on day 14. I know because I have fourteen lines scrapped into a wall…
My favorite comment ever. Well done. Well done…
ahh, kelli, of course this is why we are friends, lioness here, married to a golden retriever who even looks like a golden retriever!
Hahaha! Of course he does.
You and I did alright, didn’t we?
We need to figure out how to get Becke to CA in June because I really, really need to meet her. I’m a Golden Beaver Retriever too. AND I lack mercy in any form and Kelli, trust me when I say when my kids are sick it looks JUST LIKE THAT at my house. Seriously, I can often be heard saying, “Don’t bother me unless you are bleeding.” I look on the bright side: all three of my kids are tough as nails (most of the time) when they get hurt. And they learned very early on that if you are sick in the middle of the night the person you should wake up is Daddy.
And you know what else? Golden Retrievers shed.
Yes. Daddy is much better at doling out middle of the the night medicine than I am.
However, they still insist on curling up to me in bed if
