Have you read your SICP today?

#Tomodachilife #meme #SICP

🚀🎩 Behold, the miraculous 7-line wonder that lets you toss together a Turing-complete #language in less time than it takes to microwave your leftover pizza! 🤯🥧 Who knew that the secret to computational enlightenment was simply reading the cliff notes of #SICP while pretending real-world programming languages aren't like, a thing. 🙄📖

@vnikolov @spook
I would recommend looking into Scheme, which is a revised, modern Lisp invented in the 70s.

While imperative style is prominent in Lisp, it is commonly frowned upon in Scheme, which still allows imperative style but encourages functional programming.

The canonical book is SICP, https://mitp-content-server.mit.edu/books/content/sectbyfn/books_pres_0/6515/sicp.zip/index.html

@davidrevoy please let's just all go back to the original book of spells: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structure_and_Interpretation_of_Computer_Programs

#SICP #lisp #scheme #programming

> This book is dedicated, in respect and admiration, to the spirit that lives in the computer.
> I think that it's extraordinarily important that we in computer science keep fun in computing.

When your boss and all the tech influencers push you to offload your creativity and understanding to an #LLM. It's hard to remember this sometimes.

Code from MIT's 1986 SICP video lectures

@superketchup @splatt9990 a classmate in the #CS program I flunked out of in college once told me: "Other #programming languages teach you how to program. #Lisp teaches you how to think." I've been thinking about that statement for the last 25 years, and every few years I attempt to dust off #emacs and my copy of #sicp to no avail. But I'm never going to get any thinkier unless I start working at it now.

@rauschma It is six months until April. How about we collaborate on a type-level typescript edition of SICP, to drop on 2026-04-01?

Gerald Sussmann ist auch anwesend. Oh Mann, #SICP hat mein Leben verändert...

I'm on to my third programming example in #Lua : calculating square roots using the Heron of Alexandria trial and error method. This time it only took me an hour and a half to wrestle with the correct syntax. I originally wanted to make it a recursive algorithm like in the #sicp lecture but maybe for that I should really just use #lisp.

Nowadays, I rarely buy printed books, even more rarely ones on computer science topics. Very few CS books deserve to be bought, and for those, the printed edition is a must because they are holy like the Bible. They need to be touched, meditated upon, read, and read again.
#SICP is one of them, and I finally got it.

Done with #SICP 1.20 and I remind myself once again that I need to pick up the pace, it’s really hard to remember stuff after a while away. Well, I do what I can 😌

Patiently waiting for a C++ version of SICP.
#books #computerscience #cpp #lisp #programming #scheme #sicp

Bored -- hey why not go through #SICP, fuck it why not. #doomemacs using geiser-guile mode.

Finally done with #SICP 1.19, it took me a few weeks to sit down and properly work it through! I need to do these a bit faster, otherwise I'm still gonna be on chapter 1 by the end of the year.

🤓 Ah, the age-old quest: conquering #SICP, or as some might call it, "How to Spend 729 Hours Pretending You're a Wizard While Actually Just Being a Glorified Puzzle Solver." 🧙‍♂️✨ Spoiler alert: it's a lot of 🧠 brain sweat and not nearly enough 🪄 magical incantations.

Personal #ComputerScience education update: this summer I'm going through the #MIT #OCW #SICP 6.001 course. I'm looking forward to the #Lisp experience and I love that the videos are from 1986, a good sign that you're dealing with lasting essentials over temporary incidentals.

Functional Geekery interview with Shriram Krishnamurthi

We cover his introduction to functional programming, Racket and #lang, Static vs Dynamic Typing, Bootstrap and Pyret, How to Design Programs, and much, much, more.

See the episode web page for more details: https://www.functionalgeekery.com/episode-141-shriram-krishnamurthi/

Thank you to Proctor (@fngeekery) for this wonderful podcast series https://www.functionalgeekery.com/ that is relevant not just to functional programmers, but the broader programming community.
