  1. Oh, look! Another tech guru reminiscing about the good ol' days of #Lisp as if it's a vintage wine šŸ·. Because nothing screams cutting-edge like discussing a language from 1958 that was too ethereal for its own good šŸ¤”. Move over, JavaScript, we've got Bel in #Clojure to save the day—if only those pesky numbers and errors didn't get in the way! šŸ˜‚šŸ‘Œ

  3. #VintageProgramming (?) and #VintageApple question:

    What is your workflow for developing in #HyperCard (#HyperTalk mostly) and keeping it in version control (e.g. GitHub)?

    What I’m thinking is:

    Macintosh (or emulator) āž”ļø AppleShare IP (via Netatalk on Linux) āž”ļø Git (on Linux)

    A HyperCard stack is a binary format so won’t go well with version control. Do you just extract (copy/paste) the code when comes time to commit? I’d love to see that in git history.

    A/UX maybe!? šŸ˜„
