Been relatively offline as of late. On the upside, I've landed a decent contract for the next few months leading the development of a SAAS startup, which means I'm experiencing a bit of stability for the first time in many moons. On the downside, I'm under NDA and can't share any of the stuff I'm working on, and have had no free time to hack on Scheme.

As I'm doing CG work again, I'm considering diving into #SICM. I've loved the first two chapters of LiSP, but as its not really tied to what I'm working on atm, its hard to find time to dedicate to it. I'm a bit scared of SICM, as even a friend who studied physics (and has read SICP) said he found it to properly difficult. But I think if I go in assuming the book will take a year at minimum to complete, and allow myself to take my time without trying to schedule according to abstract expectations, it could be just the right time to brave the beast.
