Hate to see Tsoding was using Rust for this. Rust is as far removed from recreational programming than any other language.

Just checked, I have 6.5GB of memory leak, only running Little Snitch for two days. Ouch!

I've never read a book from MWL that wasn't entertaining and full of knowledge even in a field where I had years of experience.

Big Tech tought us that Running Your Own Mail Server is too hard, too complicated and coerce sysadmins by flagging mail from independent mail servers as Spam.

I'm looking forward to this book and hope that MWL will address that particular problem in detail.

The macOS version is not available as 32-bit edition so it is twice as expensive as the cheapest 32-bit version.

Also, you are not allowed to give a saved image away / cannot run it without the licensed LispWorks installation.

Have you tried the Alive plugin?

There is also now a very good Common Lisp plugin for Jetbrains IntelliJ which was just released a few days ago.

On the other side, as a developer, you should not be dependent on a single web-based editor to use a specific language. There are many great programming languages out there that run best _outside_ VSCode and I'm glad they still exist.

If you overlook the power of Lisp (and all the effort that is going on in Common Lisp, Racket, Scheme communities etc.) than this is really your loss.

Amazing work by the author of the Common Lisp Cookbook. I've hesitated to get into CL for months, but seeing about all the activity going on, I'm in for 2023.
