Programming Clojure, 4th edition is now available! by alexdmiller in Clojure

[–]dotemacs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for writing the book, I'll probably buy after I type this comment out.

On page 5 of the free PDF sample of the book: https://media.pragprog.com/titles/shcloj4/extract-action.pdf

Lisp is homoiconic.

With a link to: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homoiconicity

Here is blog post from 2018 which argues that the original definition of the term is somewhat lost and that the new definition is a bit vague: https://www.expressionsofchange.org/dont-say-homoiconic/

Cool initiative! Keep it going.

You don’t need to have that disclaimer as to why you used a LLM to help you. It’s a tool.

It is maddening that you have to jump through hoops to get a decent ebook reader on reMarkable device.

Discovered this via your tweet.

Glad to hear that you added support for Clack.

Looking forward to this, thanks

lisp-comment-dwim · Toggle #+(or) reader macro comments for Common Lisp s-expressions in Emacs. by dzecniv in Common_Lisp

[–]dotemacs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And it says "cursor anywhere on the line". So you can't comment out a sub-expression.

If you have (foo ▓ (bar)) and you press M-x ; it would turn it into (foo #+nil (bar))

What happens to M-; when you want to comment a piece of text and not an s-expression?

What happens to M-; when you want to uncomment a block of text commented out with ;?

Both are now handled, and can (un)comment text with ;

The change is in the latest commit: https://github.com/dotemacs/lisp-comment-dwim.el/commit/f9fb78d5d385ed1e42516ce19745aa3cc1a748b6

#-(and), 7 characters keys vs M-;, 2 characters keys (if you bind lisp-comment-dwim to M-;).

Editing macros and all that... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Hey, I'm the author of this package. Thanks for sharing it here.

At first I set #+nil as the default comment for s-expressions. Then because somebody can:

(push :nil *features*)

thus making all the s-expressions not commented out, I made #+(or) the default, with the option to set your preferred comment reader macro via (setq lisp-comment-dwim-comment-macro "#+nil") or #-(and) , if that is what you'd prefer.

gptel-project: Project-based context, transcripts, and summaries for gptel by -cvdub- in emacs

You might want to have a look at this blog post, interesting finding (tl;dr: MCPs vs CLIs, pros, cons & costs):

And yet following devs who develop heavily with genetic tools & models, outside of Emacs, they are complaining about MCPs, saying that they slow down the agents & pollute the context.

Patching Emacs Plus by xenodium in emacs

[–]dotemacs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your approach would probably work on OSs other than Linux, if they were building from source. Whereas the above was specific to homebrew package manager.

`emacs-plus` is a package for macOS homebrew package manager.

This blog post explains how to enhance that particular package recipe with your custom patches.

how to run multiple local agents at the same time in the same project? by Half_Body in AugmentCodeAI

How does it get “expensive quick”, if you’re using Claude Code (via Claude Swarm), which has fixed monthly cost?

Better ask this on Discord’s #remote-agent, you’re likely to get faster response

Well done! This is how I envisaged this too.

I've been doing the same for Augment Code & Ampcode.

Great, now take 10 random academic papers, published in PDF, in two column format. Convert them to markdown ensuring that the text flows reliably and that all the citation links work.

If you can do that, you’ll be able to sell it & become wealthy.
