It’d be really sad if so.

ukkare··on Getting Started in Common Lisp
Modern IDEs don’t improve the feedback loop much unfortunately, more often it’s quite the opposite. They are slow, bloated and distracting. Some of them might be good at renaming one’s variables as part of their refactoring offer, but otherwise the situation is quite often bleak.

SBSL+SLIME+Emacs usually put one in the flow state in no time. That’s what keeps amazing me and keeps me productive.

And then, Claude seems to be quite alright discussing tricky Common-Lisp-related stuff.

I’ve missed the BBSes per se and have mostly used them to download the software to bootstrap a FidoNet node. I’ve made many long-time friends on FidoNet IRL. Hearing the sound of a connecting modem always causes a rush of nostalgia. Things were much simpler back then, and indeed personal.
ukkare··on Ask HN: Product management for solo side projects?
I have a simple project journal/log text file I add to at the end each time I work on the project. This allows me to easily get back to the context next time I decide to move the project further.

I usually keep a couple of ideas to do next, outlined at the end.

If I forget what I was doing previously or am stuck on ideas on what to do next, then I just skim back up the file.

This works for me, and it’s dead simple.

Following our recent updating of the MP02 with some features that link to Apostrophy Services and its secure suite of communication tools, the MC02 takes this to a new level, and is designed for those of you that prefer a smartphone experience, but value your privacy - out of reach of those wishing to monetise your personal data.
ukkare··on Fascinating Facts About the Arabic Language
While the writing system and phonetics of Chinese are complex, the grammar is relatively simple. For Arabic, all aspects are quite complex.
ukkare··on Medievia – Do You Dare Enter?
I’ve spent a sizeable chunk of my time playing this back in 2000s. It was my first MUD and it will always be a fond memory.
