@gugamilare: In my language, :define-as-needed and :inline are two different things; the first one inlines. The second one is only for functions of which more specific versions could be made, :define-as-needed creates a function taking exactly the types that are provided when if finds a function. T...

I will agree with nuntius. I had the intention of writing something like he said, but I didn't know how to do it without being too agressive, and I think nuntius have done that well. Just complementing what nuntius said, instead of using (defun sqr :define-as-needed ((x (number))) (* x x)) You might...

Looks very nice! If you allow me one remark, though: A ship can be "off course", which means that it doesn't follow the course it should. The term you could describe with "naturally" is spelled "of course". This just jumps out because your english is quite good, otherw...

You can try tinaa to auto-generate a html files with the functions and their docs. It seems to work this way:
See the documentation of this function for other uses or more detail.

I don't have much experience filtering spam from forums, but I've found it pretty easy to filter spam in my news reader just by checking for keywords (such as handbags, wristwatches, and the like). In this case, "wow gold" seems like it would catch all the spam so far. Would keyword filte...

If anyone ever feel the need to dynamically store functions (including closures) into files, take a look at http://wiki.github.com/gugamilare/storable-functions . Currently, only cl-store is supported, but if anyone want support to another serialization library (rucksack? elephant?), just ask me (in...

I don't know how you access cll (google?), but nntp access does not use captchas. Yes, I use google, that's explained now. On a related note, I would be willing to participate as a 2nd-tier mod: somebody who could hide flagged comments until findinglisp had time to unhide/delete them. Better yet, I...

Don't think captcha is effective enough. comp.lang.lisp uses captcha for every single post, but there is still a lot of spam there. But there there is no moderator as well, so there is the problem. I think many spammers have bots that can fill a captcha.

The JVM is heavy and it takes a while to start, and it's an enormous memory hog, but once it's running it goes fast. In my (limited) experience QtJambi apps run about as fast as native Qt apps once they're up and running. In practice this isn't that much of an issue, because Clojure like any other ...

I've used QtJambi in Clojure to good effect. Very easy to get up and running quickly. Worked cross-platform with no problems. Very well-documented. It's sad to hear QtJambi is losing official support and going "community", but at least version 4.5 is there to use. Well, it is more or less...
