#CLisp

#CommonLisp, I should add.

Fediverse: what tools do #Lisp programmers use in 2021?
(Only OS: #Linux; editors/IDEs: #VSCode & #emacs.)

Enough with the idiotic pseudo-arguments pointing to #ElectionFraud in the #US!
Latest: #ThaddeusRussell on his #Unregistered #podcast (again).

Imagine insisting on the likelihood that somebody raped someone by repeating that “the motive! By God he had a strong motive. The guy really, really likes sex. We know that for sure. And we know that there have been rapes before. And the system is not perfect! A rape is so easy to commit! C'mon, I'm just saying there was motive, there were ample opportunities, and the means were there!”

🤢

@swiley
Thanks for the reminder. Reproducible builds are indeed a feature.
E-mail, IRC and SMS are so clumsy and offer so much friction… they're very far behind in features compared with #messaging apps. Don't you think?
#Telegram

@mkul
Yes, please. If there's evidence of that, I'd like to know.
#Telegram

Trying to make up my mind about #Signal vs. #Telegram in these days. (Most likely I'll keep both — it's about which to use by default and promote among my contacts of the #WhatsApp #exodus.)
So far:

✅ Telegram:
‣ Web client (this is big).
‣ Many useful features, and rapid pace of development.
‣ One can edit past messages, and (more or less) delete them, too.
‣ API, bots, apps.

✅ Signal:
‣ The server is #FreeSoftware and #OpenSource, too (although this is not terribly important per se).
‣ Better #encryption (eg, E2E also in group chats).
‣ Developed by a non-profit (is it an advantage, though?).
‣ Recommended by #security experts I personally trust (#EdwardSnowden, #BruceSchneier) and other thoughtful techies (#ElonMusk).

Fediverse: anything to correct or add? Specifically: has anyone compared their respective ToS? I'd like to know what types of data they [say they] harvest, and exactly with what legal entities they're shared.
