@KagiHQ As of today I can no longer type Hangul into Kagi Translate (Firefox, Linux). It simply doesn't recognize the keyboard input.

@languagesimp Hey, just finished your Language Learning Guide. Took just over a day to get through it. I like that it reinforces the value of the Natural Method and is aggressive about avoiding over-complicating the learning process. Going to give it a shot! Thanks also for all your entertaining videos over the years.

Exciting! SBCL finally got structs-by-value in the FFI. Issue was open for over a decade!

@stylewarning @ctoidtw The original promise was that it's effective for my use-case. Once I confirm this (soon) I will contact the author.

@killian_arts Not yet so push-button for CL.

@fosskers This cross-platform stuff is tough!

Dear diary, Today I spent the day getting my butt kicked by trying to create an executable in Common Lisp.

@killian_arts Similar problems involving asdf, uiop, and cffi are what inspired me to hand write all my raylib bindings.

@killian_arts I have seen this exact thing. Let me review my notes.

@killian_arts I’ve had problems with uiop as a dependency before, yes. Can you use vend graph and see who is depending on it?

@killian_arts Then does the normal build work?

@fosskers Vindarel help me out on the Discord. Turns out I didn't read the docs for cl-dbi close enough! Needed to add the driver for my db in the system def. #installation" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">github.com/fukamachi/cl-d…

@awesomekling Compiling ladybird. I guess I’ll just stay on master and pull the lastest commits every so often?

@killian_arts And what problems were you having?

@fosskers I'm actually using your build script as a reference! I tried to avoid it, but I couldn't get the thing to work without "deploy".

@killian_arts Then consider: github.com/fosskers/vend/… or #L41-L50" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">github.com/fosskers/aero-…

@fosskers I don't know, but I don't think so.

@awesomekling @vaxryy Has your wife tried Arch though.

@vaxryy some girls like oss devs but there is such a thing as "too much Linux" -wife

guys, do girls like foss devs?

@latinedisce Selecting the future.

What's a good use of freewill?

@killian_arts Losing a line because I didn’t understand the kill ring.

Emacs users, what are some behaviors that were confusing to you when you first got started with Emacs? For me, repeat actions, fat-fingering something like KILL-BUFFER, toggling READ-ONLY-MODE, and typing something that caused an unknown mini buffer/prompt to appear.

@killian_arts I've never used `load` or `compile-file`. Always `defpackage`, as `uiop:define-package` isn't technically portable. That is to say, not all compilers bundle a uiop that has it, so if you write a library that needs it, you're writing code that isn't cross-compatible.

I have some questions for my Common Lisp bros about this blog going around: cdegroot.com/programming/co… How often do you use LOAD or COMPILE-FILE, rather than some slime or sly command in Emacs? And do you prefer UIOP:DEFINE-PACKAGE or the standard DEFPACKAGE?
