Hey Ashton,

I see you're with PLT. :-)

Since Racket is built on Chez, you might like this. It's an Emacs-like editor built in Chez Scheme:

Pop a screenshot in your README please!

Super cool to see a new Scheme on DOS.

I've been messing around with a language that I summarize as:

ALOE = Scheme + Smalltalk + Types

Boids implementation:

Looks like the sagemath UI he mentions is here:

See also lg which is a clojure implemented in go:

Fun fact. It also runs on plan9:

This sounds so cool! Do you have this shared somewhere?

Thank you for checking it out! Fair warning, it's vibeslop and I really don't have a clue what I'm doing. I have very little background in compilers or FP or really anything. I'm honestly just shocked at how well it works.

If you want to kick the tires on it or even if you just find it interesting, please feel free to reach out! I'm kind of obsessed with this thing now, and would love and appreciate any feedback


Yes, magnesium has helped.

For me, avoiding high histamine foods as well as histamine liberators had helped tremendously.

The theory:

Anti-histamines like Benadryl make you sleepy by blocking histamine.

Well, instead of blocking the histamine, get rid of it in the first place by avoiding histamine foods (for example aged or preserved meats).


Histamine has different pools, functions, and receptors in the body. You’re reducing it all to one single level that goes up or down with diet but that’s not how it works.

The brain histamine in your neurons is primarily synthesized from an amino acid. The histamine levels in neurons are different than the levels in mast cells.

There are a lot of degrees of hand waving in your theory that don’t work.


Hey Aurornis,

I definitely haven't looked into the underlying models of histamine to see how things work.

My observation is that, when I avoid histamine related foods, I sleep longer and fall asleep faster. The naive model is what led me to try that. But I totally acknowledge that there's likely way more at play under the hood. And I would like to know more about why this works! Or, at least why it works for me.

Thank you for pointing out the complexity of the underlying mechanism.


Cool!

Any demos available of the web based browser?


Nothing public yet but hopefully will have for next month's thread!

Love it ( • ‿ • )


The interface is beautiful!

Just curious... Did you implement each app natively? I.e. Swift and Kotlin? Or were you able to use a cross platform framework like Flutter?


It uses https://capacitorjs.com/ and I'm super happy with this choice. I think it feels fast simply because solving simple algebra problems is very light work these days (and of course its all on device... so no waiting on the network).
