• Pkl, a Programming Language for Configuration

  > So what we are missing now is a 500GB framework that can write the config file for the programming language that is writing a config file for the actual program I wish to use.

    $ ls --human-readable --size $(readlink $(which...

• NixOS: Declarative Builds and Deployments

  > inventing a brand new purely functional language programming language. ISTM that if you dislike that, then there's GUIX. https://guix.gnu.org/ Very briefly, AFAICT, it's "Nix but using Scheme". - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Linux saved my life

  And just wait till you discover Arch Linux, Gentoo, Guix, or NixOS. Source: 11 months ago

• The nicest web browser of 2023 uses Lisp.

• Beyond velocity and acceleration: jerk, snap and higher derivatives (2016)

• Why Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs Matters

  > Considered a classic by who? By just about everyone who's ever compiled a list of the greatest CS books of all time? Here you go: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=classic+computer+science+books&t=brave&ia=web Count how many of those have SICP on their list (hint: most of them, excluding the ones that aren't actually lists of CS books -- e.g. The ones that have Jobs and Gates biographies, etc.) I didn't just make that... - Source: Hacker News / 3 days ago

• Cost Per 1M tokens Of Self Hosting Llama-3

  That's a bit of newspeak I think we generally understand Iaas, Paas, and Saas, to be hosted offerings, managed and unmanaged... https://duckduckgo.com/?q=iaas+paas+saas&ia=web. - Source: Hacker News / 6 days ago

• Arm says it wants all Snapdragon X Elite laptops destroyed

  What I was trying to say is that the last point >- Nuvia’s derived IP is not transferable without ARM agreement Binds Nuvia and Nuvia's license, not Qualcomm. An analogy I can think of is how sometimes luxury brands give gifts or discounts to celebrities for marketing purposes with contract that forbid resales.
