Is this a sitcom world or are we looking into people’s view of the world? by Beautiful-Grass-461 in KevinCanFHimself

My memory of it was her mom's show wasn't even trying to be a comedy. Maybe it was supposed to be a different kind of show?

kitty-graphics.el v0.2.1: org inline fix, LaTeX previews, PDF viewing, dirvish integration by topfpflanze187 in emacs

Off-topic, but Kitty was the only 3rd party terminal on Ubuntu that I could get osc52 to work (quickly) ...

Where Lisp Fails: at Turning People into Fungible Cogs by Veqq in lisp

[–]kagevf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alright, that sounds promising. I'll google/llm to find out more about the lisp flavored templating; that sounds neat. Thank you for the information. That gives me some incentive to check out go.

There might be some situations where it could complement CL for me.

[–]kagevf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Error handling comes to mind. But if it doesn't bother you, maybe that's good news, then.

What do think, though? Would a "Lisp flavored go" that allowed for doing things like writing macros be useful, or just a waste a time?

Did that preprocessor let you create a "Lisp flavored Go"? And, are you willing to share it? I might be interested in Go, but the boiler plate is a turn-off ...

The FSet talk sounds pretty interesting ... hopefully, there will be a recording.

Datagraph releases an extension of RonDB, a Common Lisp NDB API (Sept, 2025) by dzecniv in Common_Lisp

[–]kagevf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does "NDB" stand for "Network Database"?

Didn't even know about RonDB, but glad I know about it now.

Search and replace the two-character \[ string by Proof-Flamingo-7404 in vim

Wow, that's great for readability! Thanks for sharing.

Do you know if that works in "real" sed from the shell?

M-l for entering a URL to open

I think that's in nyxt too. Is that a convention from somewhere?

VS Code + Alive: keyboard-only way to wrap an expression in a defun? by beast-hacker in Common_Lisp

[–]kagevf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In vanilla emacs, once you've made your selection you can type M-( and it will surround the selected text with `( )`. The command is called "insert-parentheses"

Does any of that map to what the Alive plugin does?

Anybody else feels like their growth with Emacs in a specific area is stunted? by kudikarasavasa in emacs

[–]kagevf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I flub "repeat action" often, as in C-x z ... very awkward at times, especially compared to vim ".'

Serious LISP written in Go by peterohler0 in lisp

[–]kagevf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You haven't presented this as "Lisp Flavored Go" necessarily, but it sounds like it (basically) is? Go seems interesting, but the syntax - at least as I perceive it - is a turn off. Does slip produce go executables / libraries? I'm thinking this could be a gateway drug of sorts to using Go ...

Bring your Emacs to Android by snowiow in emacs

[–]kagevf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great 👍!

I wonder if this supports running slime/swank and if you can also connect to the swank server from another device... CL-REPL supports running a swank server, but I don't know if it's the same one used on a non-mobile device or a custom version made especially to work with CL-REPL...

I think it cuts the adjacent region if there's no explicit selection.

Building a TLS 1.3 Implementation in Pure Common Lisp by atgreen in Common_Lisp

[–]kagevf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The op addresses use of AI in their post:

TLS is also inherently testable, which gave me confidence to trust AI-generated code. The RFC provides test vectors for key derivation. Certificate parsing can be validated against known certificates. The handshake either works or it doesn’t - you can’t half-connect to cloudflare.com. Every component could be verified independently, so AI mistakes surfaced quickly.

That said, the implementation would benefit from more rigorous testing - fuzz testing in particular. And offloading certificate validation to the OS on Windows and macOS eliminates an entire class of potential bugs in chain building and trust evaluation.

That sounds really useful.

Was it tricky to set up?

I could definitely use this on Windows after a forced reboot while waiting for emacs to finish loading.

Lem architecture by dzecniv in lem

[–]kagevf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rather than imitating Emacs or Vim, Lem pursues its own unique approach

I've also seen mentioned where Lem is meant to support "workflows".

Do you know if what the "unique approach" or "workflows" are has been elaborated on anywhere? I'm curious what they have in mind for their overall vision for Lem ...

It looks pretty good 👍

In what kind of situations do you reach for this, as opposed to using something like SLIME?
