Common Lisp Is exactly that. I wish I could use it at work. All my personal stuff nowadays is CL only. There is no other choice.

Now I'm jealous

The cope is hard. Just at this point admit that the LLM tech is doomed and sucks.

Hint: how did these humans become experts in that area? Definitely not by using AI.

There's also vend (https://github.com/fosskers/vend) for package management and per project isolation.

Instead of the forums, report it also here https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/

I think a point is being missed here.

Credit where credit is due

Here’s an idea: run your digital life away from a corporate shitbucket like Google. Don’t run your email there. Plenty of good other options.

> What you're seeing above is a C program that was compiled using GCC into native 8086 machine code being executed fully within CSS.

They did write 8086 in the text, but x86 in the title.

This hits especially hard for projects like OlenBSD and FreeBSD. The unsung heroes.

Linux gets some fame and recognition, meanwhile OpenBSD and FreeBSD are the ones they power routers, CDNs and so many other cool shit while also being legit good systems that even deserve attention for the desktop.

Lord help us

Anyone who thought it’s near clearly hasn’t opened a book in a long time.

Sorry, but why should they? What makes OpenAI better at making Slack than....Slack? Sure, Slack can be improved, but why the fuck should that be done by OpenAI? Shouldn't OpenAI concentrate on...I don't know....AI?! And first try to break even on that promise and actually generate revenue on that shitty promise?

Ah, so I need to pay 100s of $ and use the "frontier" model, which is always a moving BS excuse. Last month Opus 4.5 was the frontier, gotta use it, now it's 4.6, and none of them so far have produced anything consistently good.

It is NOT reasoning about code. It's a glorified autocomplete that wastes energy. Associating "reasoning" to it is an antropomorphizateion.

And calling hallucinations "lateral thinking" is a fucking stretch.

"Let's use tool `foo` with flag `-b`" even if the man page doesn't even mention said flag.

Sure, they might be able to create numerous iterations of containers, testing them, burning resources....but that is literally a thousand monkeys smashing their heads on typewriters to crank out 4chan posts.

Highly recommend https://github.com/fosskers/vend

Until there is a bug and say due to DNS issues your LLM is. It reachable because everything is down

Really? Feels like most Of HN lately is just “get on the AI hype train or get downvoted”

Can your LLM do that to a running system? Or will it have to restart the whole program to run the next iteration? Imagine you build something with long load-times.

Also, your Lisp will always behave exactly as you intended and hallucinate its way to weird destinations.

Ah yes, lovely. That's what I want in my CI/CD...hallucinations that then churn through I don't know how many tokens trying to "fix it".

Exactly the point. AI is absolutely BS that just gets peddled by shills. It does not work. It might work for some JS bullcrao. But take existing code and ask it to add capsicum next to an ifdef of pledge. Watch the mayhem unfold.

How is it more expressive? What is more expressive than Turing completeness?

Just create a very specific and very detailed prompt that is so specific that it starts including instructions and you came up with the most expensive programming language.

Absolutely this. I am tired of that trope.

Or the argument that "well, at some point we can come up with a prompt language that does exactly what you want and you just give it a detailed spec." A detailed spec is called code. It's the most round-about way to make a programming language that even then is still not deterministic at best.

See, what’s missing is agentic posting. Let it write to itself a few times and simulate some reactions, then do the actual post.

And you see no problem in that at all? Just “throw a box around it and let the potentially malicious code run”?

Wait until they find a hole. Then good luck.

Claude 4.5, all variants, Rust, C, Common Lisp and Haskell.

And burn even more energy and fuel than DCs on the ground, great idea :D

Forget heat. Replacing disks alone is a deal breaker on that one.

“Musk is on to something here”? Really? Any high school student with a basic grasp of physics could explain that. But sure, the idiot billionaire nazi “is on to something”. That’s giving him too much credit.

Of course it doesn’t fucking make sense to put data centers into space. Even if heating were solved somehow magically, server disks are veeery prone to fail and need replacement. Shoot a rocket up every week to replace failed drives or absolutely burned through GPUs? Yeah, that doesn’t even remotely sound feasible.
