So, I imply that you mean it is normal.

The question is more like where else would you put your backups?

No, it is not.

I installed Sparky Linux 7 on my backup laptop computer because I failed to install Debian.

Maybe Sparky Linux ...

Normally, I use Debian. However, Debian 12 installer didn't work on my Acer Extensa 💻. So I installed Sparky Linux, and it works.

People claiming Linux isn’t a viable alternative cause you can’t run it without using the command line.

Even in 2024, many people begin using GNU/Linux with Arch Linux or Ubuntu with apt-get, then later they complain that Linux is not for average users. Maybe the community needs more GUI only tutorials.

2. Do you count MBasic REPL? (If not, it was Borland Sidekick)
3. PRINT 10
4. ~5 years (if LOGO is counted)
5. LOGO
6. Emacs
7. Common Lisp (but it can be Python, JS, Golang, or Clojure if you want to hire me.)
8. Common Lisp

Like Thinkpad, the main brand is Lenovo. Thinkbook keyboard is like Acer and other brands.

I'm using Lenovo ThinkBook, which is cheaper than Thinkpad, and the keyboard layout is different. It supports upto 40GB of RAM.

5. While many programming languages offer Packrat parser libraries, Esrap stands out for its simpler rule definition. Esrap uses a defrule macro, offering a specialized language for defining parsing rules, unlike other parsers that might rely on class construction. Class construction can be less intuitive when it comes to understanding the relationship between classes and parsing rules. This makes Esrap a great choice for writing parsers.

7. I have no idea.

What Lisp programming languages do you use?

1. Common Lisp
2. Clojure

What non-Lisp programming languages do you use?

Rust, etc.

What is your favorite Lisp programming language? Why?

SBCL can compile Common Lisp into optimized native code and the community provides libraries that I need.

What is your favorite non-Lisp programming language? Why?

Ruby can be used as AWK with JSON parser and Unicode support.

What is that one thing about your favorite non-Lisp language that you wish to see in your favorite Lisp language?

Awk-style one-liner

I did. I also coded in PL/pgSQL.

I don’t know what kind of architecture you are thinking of and having the distinction between datalog on the database and prolog in the server might be problematic.

I thought about Datomic and Clojure.
