Hey fediverse! Is anyone of you interested in #scheme or #lisp (or even #programming in general)?
I’m starting to work on the manual of CHICKEN Scheme’s upcoming major release.
Do you have anything you would love to see in a manual or tutorial introduction? Any input in welcome!
(boost if you want to help a cool open-source project 😇)
In `git merge foo` the current branch is the target (and foo is the source). In `git rebase foo` the current branch is the source (and foo the target). I find this a bit confusing and difficult to remember. (Or, is there a better way to think about this?) #git

every time I search for software and find out that it's hosted at #sourceforge, i just keep searching for an alternative. ah, sourceforge, the geocities of software hosting/distribution!
Now's a good weekend to migrate off of #lastpass to #pass or #gopass and friends. Thanks, Aaron @qbit ! https://deftly.net/posts/2017-12-29-passing-off-the-hard-parts.html #password-store #passwordstore
Python is (nearly) ubiquitous, easy to learn, ... but sooo boring and not fun to code/build in. Saying this as I read a book chock-full of python code examples. OT-one-H, I grok stuff straightaway; OTOH I'm not motivated to code in it *at all*.
@alexshendi good to connect with the person who brought my beloved #picolisp 64 to #OpenBSD !
if you thought "yacc" sounds like someone was vomiting something, then "byacc" sounds like it even more! :)
@qbit another thing: pass is GPL, gopass ... MIT. \o/
