The virgin build manual vs the chad v .

1. Install python, perl, make and the samurai build tool
2. Install the dependencies with apt-get install libc6-dev libjpeg62-dev libncurses5-dev libpng-dev libtiff4-dev libungif4-dev xaw3dg-dev zlib1g-dev libice-dev libsm-dev libx11-dev libxext-dev libxi-dev libxmu-dev libxmuu-dev libxpm-dev libxrandr-dev libxt-dev libxtrap-dev libxtst-dev libxv-dev x-dev xlibs-static-dev.
3. Run python -m 'cool_samurai --ani --gnu-make' to setup the project
4. Install the incremental builder with apt brew install the_incrementor
5. Setup the incremental builder with incrementor -fast -slow -p=<path_to_project> -experimental0 -nightly
6. Register the incrementor by running python -m 'cool_samurai --register-incrementor .'
7. Install the compiler caching tool with brew install xccache
8. Configure $HOME/.config/xccache/xccache.conf to your liking. (Don't forgot to configure the path to the wrapper!)
9. Run python -m 'cool_samurai --generate --with-cache=xccache' to generate the tourania executable which contains the Symta interpreter and core libraries.
10. Build the bytecode needed to run ourania. This could be done with the command tourania -l glowup but would just load the default glowup.s . Most of the time tourania -batch -l glowup dump is run by a script because generating the bytecode takes some time (See fast_ourania for an example). The dumped ourania executable is the one you want.
11. Install ldbook with brew install ldbook and build the documentation with ldbook build book. You can access the documentation on http://localhost:3000 or directly through ourania. For more information see the ldbook project.
12. Add the ourania demon to your .bashrc with eval "$(ourania init bash)"
13. And now you are ready to use the ourania

I'm having flashbacks at trying to install stuff from github, and recalling why i stopped compiling stuff from source.
This is worse than just manually fixing bad headers, the modern buildsystem zoo is like adding a pack of trojans into your system, and there is 80% chance it will require installing systemd.

Could it be Lisp does have some "abstraction creep" effect where lispers, used to build elaborate multi-level function-passing abstractions, expect every person capable of understanding/enjoying their contraptions?
Its seems common with haskell usergroups, where they compete on how much they can code golf a function, so people would treat them as abstraction wizards. Real world requires maintenance and patching, which such contraptions can't support because you
can't understand the pile of abstractions just at a glance.

You're onto something.

My theory is that they're looking for their golden abstraction just like physiscists wanted to believe everything is made of ``atoms" and linguists wanted to believe all languages stem from the ``universal grammar" and commies wanted to believe everything stems from classes.

It's a brain virus that infects everyone that gets into prolonged contact with it. After I got into Lisp I started to think of life as a function. Edited on 29/07/2020 08:27.

Life is closer to main() than a pure function.
Consider the amount of side effects, quick fixes and dirty hacks.

>>7
I think so too, for a human lifetime.

I also don't think the universe is a pure function, but this is just the determinism argument. I think the universe has side effects in that we affect the gods and the gods affect the universe.

Physics supports my side of the argument.

Is V some sort of running gag I'm not in on? It's joke of a language that I had never heard of until people started to make fun of it. All of its claims are blatant bullshit and easily verified to be bullshit. Yet it seems to have a community of some sort. Where did it get started?

Does the "v" stand for "vaporware" again this time?
