What is a good intro to CL for people comfortable with Scheme? Maybe On Lisp?

We also exclude copyleft-licensed code due to uncertainty regarding the community’s stance on using such data for LLM training and its relatively low volume.
If distributing copyleft code from an LLM violates the license, distributing permissive code from an LLM also violates the license. People seem to erroneously think that permissive = public domain. It does not. Permissive licenses have terms that language models do not follow.

@npub1sg4…xslc Semantically I am thinking of something like:
a | b | c 1| d 1| e 2| f
which would pipe the output of a into b, and the output of b into c, d, and e, and the output of c into f. This would intermix the output of d, e, and f into stdout because nothing is capturing their outputs.
A similar indexing could be used for redirection.
a | b | c 1| d 1| e 2| f 3> d.log 4> e.log
This would write the stdout of d and e to d.log and e.log respectively, and only the output of f would be displayed.
As for actual syntax to do this, I think the pipe-bracket syntax you use for selecting a fd to pipe would actually be perfect for this. I am having a hard time thinking of another syntax that I think would be a great fit for this feature.

@npub1sg4…xslc The only thing I can think of is something like the shell syntax for redirecting / piping a specific fd (stdout or stderr) for selecting the index of the program in the pipeline.
Maybe not worth it, just a thought :)

@npub1sg4…xslc Would you also be able to capture intermediary standard output streams? Something like tee but built into the shell?

@npub1hpc…hjn3 I think this is a good idea regardless of personal connections. I have definitely gotten jobs that I did not meet the "minimum requirements" for, even without connections to the company.
I think the best advice I heard regarding this I heard from Eli the Computer Guy: "let them tell you no". If you don't apply, they don't even have the chance to reject your application. You have little to lose by applying (just a few minutes most likely).
The "requirements" list should really be seen as a wishlist. Just be honest about the limits of your skills and experience, and accept rejection as a part of the process.

@npub1w66…rc58 @npub1f3s…jzfc I would like to be without a mobile phone at all. My plan is to use a laptop with a cellular modem for my mobile computing needs, and https://jmp.chat/ for texting and calling.
