Uncommon opinion (but not necessarily unpopular): I love languages with large standard libraries. I enjoy flipping through the language documentation, scouting for interesting functions or classes that may eventually come in handy.
My favorite large library language is Common Lisp but of course there are many others such as Smalltalk, Python, and Java.
ok, after all that #redis kerfuffle let's have some fun:
Who built a Redis-like cache/data store/database (maybe protocol compatible?) for fun or shit-posting?
May that be in bash, awk, storing data in DNS, ...
Share your silly project!
«Selon nos informations, le 28 mars prochain, le Sytral devrait confier la gestion du métro lyonnais à l'opérateur parisien, dans le cadre du nouveau marché. Keolis, l'actuel exploitant, continuera lui de gérer les bus. Les changements sont attendus pour début 2025.»
Okay, I need a 32" TV for my bedroom. #HDR is a MUST! anyone have any NON-#SAMSUNG suggestions? NO NEED for #DolbyVision. Prefer #LG, but just need #LCD/#OLED that can hang on wall. TV is ~10 ft from head of bed - if that makes a diff. Only using w/AppleTV 4k Gen2. No TV tuner requirement.
This is a little project I've been working on for a few weeks. I think the basic functionality is now working, though there are still many aspects I hope to improve. Of course much of usenet is now a wasteland inhabited only by spammers and cranks. But there are still worthwhile corners, such as comp.lang.tcl, so I think this may have some value. 🙂 #usenet#tcl#tcltk#programming
I'm old enough to have begun using #unix before #linux, and in the first years, I used *nix (well, SunOS, Solaris, and Digital OSF/1, to say more precisely) for so long. I'm what nowadays is considered a Veteran Unix Admin or #vua. I'm still curious enough to stay updated about current tech, but I wonder how many people out there in the #fediverse are still passionate about tech novelties but even cultivate legacy knowledge such as #C, #Perl, #Tcl, #autoconf and #automake, #m4 and above all why?
seemingly out of nowhere I've somehow found myself delving deeper into technologies that could be classified as "permacomputing"-friendly or adjacent. I've recently been doing a lot of reading and exploration on things like around redbean, lua, tcl/tk, c, portability, longevity, and "old" tech and can't help but get excited or overly curious about them.
The missing TCL/TK bindings for r2 are now available! Write GUI r2pipe scripts that run on mac/linux/windows without fighting too much with graphical toolkits or build dependencies. And of course! You can also reuse your Javascript or Python helpers from TCL #tcl#tk#radare2
RayNeo Air 2 Review! https://youtu.be/_CsV-Vbzgis
Smaller, lighter, faster, and less expensive! These could be the XR glasses to beat?
But is RayNeo making TOO many compromises to hit the lower price?
✅ Un gain de temps de parcours de 10 min (et + fiable) pour les bus 40 et 70
✅ Création de trottoirs accessibles avec revêtements clairs
✅ Végétalisation avec des arbres pluies 🌳 et sols perméables 💧
💡 Rappel
Le Corridor Bus, c'est des priorités aux feux, des couloirs bus, des aménagements et sécurisations de carrefours, des couloirs d'approche, etc.
With it’s Polish notation, tail recursion, and first-class continuations, #REBOL was described as an unholy cross between #TCL and #Scheme, “The result of Outsterhout and Sussman meeting in a dark alley.”
@tcltk@clacke@nixos@tcl interesting, how realistic Tcl can become a replacement for bash for building derivations and having phases, etc. ? (aka nixpkgs stdenv)
@raito@tcltk@clacke@nixos I’ve been planning to try this since forever and I’ve been slowly packaging stuff to that end. #Nix and #Tcl would go so well together!
The #nushell talk at #NixCon reminded me of this again, but my list of ongoing side projects is a little too big at the moment 😅. Still, if anyone is working on it please let me know!
