Today's Common Lisp Project of the Day is CLAWK.
This library provides a DSL for text processing in a way as AWK does. For those who aren't familiar with it, AWK is a language for text processing.

From the last (#Lisp) presentation slides I've seen, I have to especially mention Marco Heisig. Writing about the CLOS MOP, he additionally demonstrates an outstanding grasp of the cultural and artistic background.

So far, I've been optimizing for familiarity with my other keyboard. In the future, I think I'll play with placing commonly used symbols in more ergonomic places. E.g., ( as Raise+J as well as keys for commonly used compose sequences.
I've written some comments about the layout I'm using on my recent Planck EZ keyboard (by @ErgoDoxEZ@twitter.com) https://configure.ergodox-ez.com/planck-ez/layouts/9wWdK/latest/0 Click "Play layout tour" to see them.

Common Lisp Condition System #CommonLisp #Lisp @lisp #Book progress report:
I'm at 111 pages and 3 programming libraries right now, and more will come. It seems I'll reach 150 pages, and there's still a research paper that I want to write about integrating multiple condition systems. Welp.
This has grown in scope rather massively. Not necessarily a bad thing, now that most of it is already done.

Mozilla Hubs is a really simple 3D chatroom that I've started seeing meetups use. It's a nice model: it works with both VR headsets and browsers!

RIP John Conway https://xkcd.com/2293/ https://m.xkcd.com/2293/

I am sorry to confirm the passing of my colleague John Conway. An incomparable mathematician, a pleasant neighbor, and an excellent coffee acquaintance.
His passing was sudden (fever started only Wednesday morning). Part of coronavirus's hard toll in New Jersey.
