I learn to program back in the days of 486, MS-DOS using QBASIC and it's help menu. Nothing else.

Over the next 30+ years I code in almost every (major) languages. Love some (C, LUA, Python), hate some (JavaScript, Java/C#).

Now I found the inner peace with Assembly (x86). I just like to write those instructions, shuffle values in memory and get a working software of it.

Is this the last stage of programmers life?

#programming #lowLevel #lisp #commonLisp #article #medium
I wrote a short description of how lisp is coded by writing lisp sequences (lists), and the low level dotted cons view of the lists.

I wrote a funny piece of lisp that outputs a lower triangular emacs orgmode matrix depiction of a lisp form.

Which leaves me wondering, does anyone "use" or otherwise think about (a . (b . NIL)) the dotted cons way of writing lists while programming?

I've been lurking and reading posts, so it's probably time for an #introduction.

Hi, I'm John. I'm a software engineer, with a variety of interests: #programming, #gamedev, #graphicsprogramming, #dsp, #osdev, #emulation, #LowLevel, #webdev, and others. I use #python, #c, and #cpp professionally, but I also enjoy using #rustlang, #typescript , and #javascript in personal projects.

Non programming things: I try to make electronic music, never finish it. Ich lerne auch #deutsch.

4 years using and championing the #fediverse full time and I've never written a #introductions toot. Well, or I have and can't find it.

I'm a #blind guy from 🇬🇧 with a passion for #technology and #programming, particularly #lowLevel #systemsProgramming in #C, #C++, #Rust, etc.

I've been a huge #freeSoftware / #openSource advocate for the majority of my life. I run #Linux and I love open, #decentralised technologies like #ActivityPub, #Matrix, #bitTorrent etc.

In my view, technology is built to make our lives easier, and in many ways, it isn't these days. It is truly my opinion that the only way #tech can be sustainable is if it's built using #FOSS, and does not give ultimate control to any 1 entity, individual or corporate. If technology is to help the people, it must be built *for* the people.

Currently working on odilia.app, various projects with the rest of the Lower Elements gang at lowerelements.club, and a Computing Science BSC at the #University of #stirling
