  • I think edn is almost the only more advanced and ergonomic option to json. Edn is like the evolved json, but its interesting that its roots are way older than JSON.

    The fact that you can very efficiently define whole applications and software just with edn (and the lisp syntax in general) is what makes really amazing.

    I think this blog post sheds more light on how we only need lisp for defining data and applications.

  • Thank you! Sorry for the cloud error, the server’s origin website is hosted in my country Iran, which is currently in a semi-blackout and very bad internet distruptions. Very sad.

    You might see the blog if you try a couple times more, I can see it with most VPNs.

    I completely agree with your points. I’m stating the same sentiment in the blog.

    I prefer GUIs for two things:

    1. Things that are inherently graphical (gimp, blender, etc)
    2. Things that I don’t use very often, and the GUI is too simple to be bothered with a cli.






  • Yes, I mentioned collapseOS in the post. I think it’s very interesting.

    For when there is no electricity, I think we’re past the point of “software” at that point. I’m not exactly aiming for a guide to a “full-on everything is gone” situation. More like, “very bad situation which there is still some levels of civilization”. I mainly used the word apocalypse because saying " we need software for when things are very bad, like revolutions and wars and partial supply chain collapse" didn’t really sound interesting.

    Thanks for reading!
