So, I imply that you mean it is normal.

The question is more like where else would you put your backups?

No, it is not.

I installed Sparky Linux 7 on my backup laptop computer because I failed to install Debian.

Maybe Sparky Linux ...

Normally, I use Debian. However, Debian 12 installer didn't work on my Acer Extensa 💻. So I installed Sparky Linux, and it works.

People claiming Linux isn’t a viable alternative cause you can’t run it without using the command line.

Even in 2024, many people begin using GNU/Linux with Arch Linux or Ubuntu with apt-get, then later they complain that Linux is not for average users. Maybe the community needs more GUI only tutorials.

 

The video offers a practical example of using Ubuntu for web development, reminiscent of the Rails screencasts popular two decades ago. Back then, many software developers I met still believed the iBook G4 was primarily for desktop publishing, not software development.

  3. PRINT 10
  4. ~5 years (if LOGO is counted)
  5. LOGO
  6. Emacs
  7. Common Lisp (but it can be Python, JS, Golang, or Clojure if you want to hire me.)

Like Thinkpad, the main brand is Lenovo. Thinkbook keyboard is like Acer and other brands.

I'm using Lenovo ThinkBook, which is cheaper than Thinkpad, and the keyboard layout is different. It supports upto 40GB of RAM.

 

dhh is the creator of Ruby on Rails. He has extensively used Mac for decades. A few months ago, as far as I remember, he mentioned something like switching to Windows and WSL.

  1. esrap
  2. Expat
  3. No
  4. Nikodemus Siivola, Jan Moringen
  5. While many programming languages offer Packrat parser libraries, Esrap stands out for its simpler rule definition. Esrap uses a defrule macro, offering a specialized language for defining parsing rules, unlike other parsers that might rely on class construction. Class construction can be less intuitive when it comes to understanding the relationship between classes and parsing rules. This makes Esrap a great choice for writing parsers.
  6. DSL
  7. I have no idea.

What Lisp programming languages do you use?

  1. Common Lisp
  2. Clojure

What non-Lisp programming languages do you use?

Rust, etc.

What is your favorite Lisp programming language? Why?

SBCL can compile Common Lisp into optimized native code and the community provides libraries that I need.

What is your favorite non-Lisp programming language? Why?

Ruby can be used as AWK with JSON parser and Unicode support.

What is that one thing about your favorite non-Lisp language that you wish to see in your favorite Lisp language?

Awk-style one-liner

RK3588 is used in many Linux devices, but I'm not sure if Rockchip is in the BDS list. I don't know which factory was RK3588 from.

I heard that Linux gets new patches for Loongson, but I didn't try it yet.
