• Ask HN: Does Your GitHub Repo Need a Landing Page

  I'm really not fond of that agpt landing page. So many red flags; the AI-generated background, mailing letter box with accompanying email-beggar text, the Discord button (!!!) being given as much space as the Github repo click-through... it's a mess. The whole website feels more boilerplate than content. I mean, look at these quotes! > With the help of the incredible open-source community, we’re making... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Why are there no ROS2 bindings for Julia(lang)?

  I’m wondering if there are any attempts for a ROS2 client library for Julia(lang)? I very much like the concepts of Julia and would like to use it in my robotics applications. I believe, that writing code in Julia is very efficient and productive. As a robotics engineer and researcher, I would definitively appreciate the possibility to use ROS2 with Julia.

• AskScience AMA Series: We've identified subsets of Long COVID by blood proteins, ask us anything!

  Kevin is a senior research scientist (read: fancy postdoc) at Wellesley College. He has a PhD in immunology, but transitioned to microbial genomics after graduate school, and now spends most of his time writing code (ask me about julia). His first postdoc was looking at the microbes that grow on the outer surface of cheese (it's a cool model system for studying microbial communities - here's the paper) and now...

• Any Good Alternatives for Matlab?

  Julia is a great alternative in terms of raw speed/performance (not a compatible language). Source: 11 months ago

• What Apple hardware do I need for CUDA-based deep learning tasks?

  If you are really committed to running on Apple hardware then take a look at Tensorflow for macOS. Another option is the Julia programming language which has very basic Metal support at a CUDA-like level. FluxML would be the ML framework in Julia. I’m not sure either option will be painless or let you do everything you could do with a Nvidia GPU. Source: 11 months ago

• Not only Clojure – Chez Scheme: Lisp with native code speed

  Tangential: if we're talking Lisp and native code speed, Steel Bank Common Lisp (by default) compiles everything to machine code. [0] https://sbcl.org. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• A few newbie questions about lisp

  Q5: Get http://sbcl.org/. Install https://quicklisp.org/. SBCL is the implementation that's the lowest friction, and Quicklisp is a package manager that's almost* painless. Source: 12 months ago

• [C++20][safety] static_assert is all you need (no leaks, no UB)

  That is what we do in Lisp. Try sbcl if you haven't tried it yet. Source: about 1 year ago

• Trying to wrap my head around `xbps-src`

  I want to add the sbcl-doc subpackage (the manual for SBCL in GNU Info format), but first I need to understand how to write package definitions. As far as I understand there are the "templates" which are shell scripts that describe how a package is to be built and installed, and xbps-src is a shell script which can process these templates to actually carry out the work.

• Ask HN: Areas in Programming to Avoid

  > Lisp looks like Python, that's far from C, and usually it's a "interpreted" language, far from machine the currently most popular Common Lisp implementation is based around an optimizing native code compiler. That compiler has its roots in the early 80s. See https://sbcl.org . It's far away from being 'interpreted'. - Source: Hacker News / almost 3 years ago
