How I found free time and what I did to it when I found it
Busy busy! (This post contains references to at least three things related to lisp, so into this category it goes)
It’s been several months since the last post. Since then, I was in Hamburg, St. Petersburg, and Helsinki. I hacked on a few lisp projects (an asdf dependency groveller of which I’m proud, and a new cl pathname system of which I’m planning to be proud), and rotated jobs. I am a consultant in lispy things now. Yay! That doesn’t mean I get to hack only on lisp code, though.
Read two or three dozen books. Highlights: lots of stuff by Charles Stross, The Lost Cosmonaut and Warren Ellis’s Fell (issue one available for free here). Promised a mcclim release and promptly missed the deadline. Got a Mac. Am now installing grml in Parallels on it. Went to a funeral and missed a wedding. Am enthusiastic about metalab. Read lots of irrelevant stuff on the internet (like the entry you’re reading now).
Promise less disinformation density soon.
