In other news, I'm now posting my #PostScarcitySoftware development log on my blog, in case anyone is interested. Which, if you're sane, you won't be. #Lisp

OK, #Zig language people, where's a good place online to ask dumb newbie questions about Zig?
What I'm thinking of trying to build as an experiment is this:

paged space objects
Paged space objects will be a generalisation of cons space objects. A page — all pages will be of the same size — will comprise a header, followed by an array of objects. All the objects in a given page will be of the same size. The number of objects in a page is simply the number of ...

Well,. the good news this morning is that i found a stupid bug in `cdr` which, once you've seen it, you can't unsee, so the seventh #PostScarcitySoftware #Lisp prototype is now completing initialisation and entering the REPL.
The bad news is that there's an unterminating recu…

Hot damn! When you see an obvious, stupid bug you created, you can't unsee it! · 02a4bc3e28
post-scarcity - Prototype work towards building a post-scarcity software system

There's a Common #Lisp cryptography library called 'Ironclad'. I'm going to need cryptography for #PostScarcitySoftware authentication, but Post Scarcity #Lisp is going to be a lot more…

Well, the state of play at the end of this morning's work:
'OK, the problem is that make_frame fails to put the arguments into the frame.
I do not (yet) know why not, but that is the problem."

Where I'm at on post scarcity:
* The garbage collector is doing even worse than it was on 4th
February, when I did the last serious look at it.
* The bignum bugs are not fixed.
* You can (optionally) limit runaway stack crashes with a new command line option.
* If you enable the stack limiter feature, `(member? 5 '(1 2 3 4))` returns `nil`, as it should, but if you do not enable it, `(member? 5 '(1 2 3 4))` still causes a segfault. WTAF?
Does no…

I did ten hours on #PostScarcitySoftware yesterday, and then slept a bit, and then woke up with an intention to rapid prototype a '#Lisp structure editor in the browser' idea I've been thinking on for a while. I did about five hours on that, and it's looking promising.
