    Good morning and #TZAG. I’m almost finished with today’s #YoCo ( #yogurt and #coffee ). Plans today include job searching, working on my toy project (part of learning #Lua; I’m also going to do another version of it to revive my !TclTk knowledge and possibly a 3rd version in another language), and removing some of the weeds growing in the yard.

    I also need to visit the stores to see whether TP supplies have come in.

    Considering a #JavaScript implementation for a couple of little things I'm working on. This one: https://jsish.org/fossil/jsi/doc/ckout/md/Home.md

    (Also considering #Lua and !tcltk. Maybe I'll start with all three and see which one gets farther faster.)

    https://github.com/lehenbauer/tclspi !tcltk extension to access the !RasPi’s #SPI bus. In Tcl’2019, Day 3, someone did a LED lights demo with this (after a similar demo using !Arduino).

    Like other such demos, it gets boring quickly, but the point is to show the possibilities, and to provide a starting point for further learning.

    Still watching Tcl’2019 ... currently, the TCT ( Tcl Core Team ) discussing breaking changes coming in Tcl 9.x and how Tcl 8.7 is providing a bridge from the current 8.6.x series. !tcltk

      Back in 1995, these people wrote a #tcl to C compiler, gaining 5-20 times performance on realistic to synthetic benchmarks.

    I should jump over to the #Win10 machine and try to answer some challenge questions in #VBScript or #KiXtart, then circle back around with #PowerShell. Maybe I should use !tcltk before I tackle PS, since I will have to look up everything I do.

    It looks like #Tcl 8.6.9.1 will be coming soon, at least on #MacOS. Some patches may have been omitted from the 8.6.9 release. !TclTk

    @arturovm Funny thing is that I was recently looking at #Lua, !TclTk, #Squirrel, but not since I started this search (and, again, I do not have any current need for it).

    Also thinking of replacing the #Mageia install with #OpenSuse. Mostly because I want to use #OpenVPN and I want a !TclTk installation that doesn't segfault every time I try to use it.

    The kind of bash script I'm writing at the moment, I wish that Tcl would still be considered an acceptable language to write things in.

    For what I'm doing, bash still beats Python in readability and usability. But Tcl would be a better suited language than both.

    Tried out subbing to the "BSD Now" podcast. Interesting, but the two episodes I've listened to are about four times too long and filled with babbling. Within 5-10 minutes, I've tuned out. #BSDNow

    I think I'm going to unsubscribe, which will leave me with two:
    * Hacker Public Radio -- I've resubbed for the past couple of weeks and I have not burned out yet. Maybe I'm just a fan of @klaatu ;-) #HPR
    * Smalltalk Reflections -- This one is on another unannounced hiatus. I should probably take a look around and see whether there are any other !Smalltalk podcasts in currently active production.

    I haven't really looked for them yet, but I'd be interested in trying out podcasts that focus mostly on !TclTk or !DLang.

    These days I often catch myself thinking "Why are we doing X in Python?".

    It's just because doing it in bash would be terrible because bash.

    In one place we have basically implemented shell script as an array of arrays of strings. More or less a shell AST that we the assemble into exec calls. This allows us to say things about the different actions and turn on and off things like "this particular thing here should be silent this time around". Also it lets us DRY things up, and hook into parts of our (Python-written) build system for sources of knowledge.

    It is horrible. But I can't argue that it's worse than going Full Bash.

    And then I think that I wish there were an in-between that would be convenient for shell-like things yet have proper orthogonal language constructs and higher-order concepts.

    And then I think that it's too bad I would never be able to get my colleagues on the !tcltk train.

    Learned[0] that !tcltk is developed on #fossil. Not super surprising considering there seems to be a bit of overlap between the #sqlite and tcl communities.
