Last minute Boston Lisp Meeting
by Faré 05 Apr '17

05 Apr '17

Dear Boston Lispers, I'll be briefly in Cambridge this Thursday March 30th. Is anyone interested in a Boston Lisp Meeting? If one of you can get a speaking venue at the last minute, I could present a version of the ASDF 3.3 talk I'll be presenting at ELS 2017 https://github.com/fare/asdf2017 or maybe a version of the Evolutionism talk I'll be presenting at SDR https://github.com/fare/evo2017 (or both?). Otherwise we could just have food at a local restaurant. Mary Chung's? Some Indian place? Say at 1830? —♯ƒ • François-René ÐVB Rideau •Reflection&Cybernethics• http://fare.tunes.org C is a DSL for turning low-level byte arrays into security advisories.

17 May '16

Dear Boston Lisp friends, I'll be speaking this Wednesday (tomorrow) at BostonHaskell: http://www.meetup.com/Boston-Haskell/events/228966396/ There will be a little bit of Haskell type declarations, but you'll survive it. Mostly, it'll be diagrams like this one (my favorite, about PCLSRing): http://imgur.com/YrlN9sV After the meeting, join us at CBC! —♯ƒ • François-René ÐVB Rideau •Reflection&Cybernethics• http://fare.tunes.org For followers of most ideologies (openly religious or not), toleration is a concession of defeat. For libertarians, it is victory itself.
